I'm all about that kind of thing. Just no funds for hosting or the forum software... I’d do it if I found a site that would allow PHP (and provide the toolset itself) and was free. :)

I think a discussion board format would be a more suitable forum for this kind of thing than a blog. I wonder if there is anyone who would be able to get it up and running and then people to moderate it? I agree that some “e-place” to have these kind of roundtables would be great!

Do they help or hinder the church (in the living-entity, not-a-building sense)? (Of course, they do both, but why?) What should the church's response be to social crisis? (Things like civil rights, government bureaucracy, homelessness, things like that) Things like Brian and I are discussing, like "When to Serve?" Anyway, I'm up for anything from personal ranting to riotous vitriolic discussion, if the discussion merits it... I love a good debate. :) So, what do you think?

But not like where someone sits at a conference and types up what's happening live. But instead, like a public forum, where we have a round-table discussion of these things. That would be awesome. And I wouldn't write so much. :) I think we just need to have a liveblog. But not like where someone sits at a conference and types up what’s happening live.
