Frankly I don’t care where the ecumenical venture begins, but I maintain that it has better chance outside of this continent. Like I said earlier I think this culture defines itself as a Consumer and therefore as a Consumer there should be choice and secondly the Consumer/Customer is always correct - this type of mentality seems to counter progress in any Ecumenical ventures. The second thing is that it seems in Protestantism Voice is given to a select few and those few tend to be the ‘superstars’ of Protestantism either walking on the overly conservative side or self help/get rich line of preaching, If a Presbyterian or Methodist minister is given equal voice to the non demonintational/ evangelical preacher then I’m a little more hopefullActually, I think the reverse is true. Interest in formal ecumenical ventures of this kind is largely a European/North American phenomenon, as far as I know. But I’d be happy to be shown wrong!
