Technically sure, you are correct. Are you afraid of losing your influence? Are you afraid that this merge will cause us to become less Christ-like individuals? The vibe I am getting is one that is rooted in your identity of CSB, not your identity as a Son of God. I know it’s hard, believe me. I don’t agree with this decision from a local…

to be honest Jim- they arent meant to “replace” CSB. TL is meant to supplement CSB, just as CSB is supplementing TL in its areas of weakness.

I think its hard to focus on this for our group. we have 1 senior and no juniors, and our group has been vastly disconnected from other battalions, sadly. I think this can definitely happen for our sophmore crew tho.
