Transparency is not a bad thing in a church that risks appearing as a cult to new members. It is at least a recommendation to keep in mind. Trust people (regardless of rank) with issues and they will positively surprise you.
It's called empowerment.
It's not privileged except in the sense of plain good manners. Any officer is free to make any statement or answer any questions about their personal decisions. It's their choice. Not mine and not The Council's to speak for them. I can say their conduct and work was exemplary. It was their personal decision to resign.
If anyone is interested in a cult I recommend The Blue Oyster Cult.

I demand a dramatic schism! apostasy! brutal warfare between competing branches of an otherwise identical faith!
I have nothing useful to contribute - I really have no idea what the grand political/tribal goings-on of TotJO are - and that suits me fine. I come here for the cool Jedi, the IP, and annoying the Knights.
I'm not even really sure what TotJO's "Mission Statement" is, so I couldn't even begin to guess what the issues are that divide the "Upper Class" of our pseudo-society.
I don't want to be one of those wishy-washy people, but let's not get dramatic about things just because it's a quiet week and we have not had an extremist member to "gang up" on and make us all feel together-y against a common "enemy"

Ah man! Now why do you have to use sarcasm and humor to take the edge off and offer some perspective?
Thank you

Did my path change? Did theirs? Did I just notice something I was blind to before?
Who knows?
IF that doesn’t fairly enough settle the question, anyone is free to PM me and ask. I will reply as diplomatically as possible and try to satisfactorily address any concerns or inquiries.
But I can only speak for myself.
Thank you
