[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has there been an agreement reached about her severance? I thought there was still a stalemate?

I doubt Rev. Moore will start her own church, she is 60. Not every dispute leads to some positive outcome for all.

My opinion is that the ministers, like all humans, both have flaws. That said, they balanced each other wonderfully. I miss Rev. Susan's warmth and sense of humor and her sermons. Rob brings something very different.

Hopefully things will be resolved soon, it is closing in on a year. Reeve started a ball rolling and topped that with The City Paper article. Rob seems to have pushed out Rev. Susan "so others would not leave" which seems to have been code for the ED, who then retired the day after Rev. Susan's separation. I believe the retirement was expected but the timing was striking. Rev. Susan put out a video that explained her side and the UCC did not like that. It is a shame that Rev. Susan and her contributions were not embraced more fully by AS, as they seem to have been by the UUA. I fear this incident and the continued gentrification will push AS to become far less divers.

Eh, there is no drama like church drama![/quote]

Yes-- I'm sorry-- that is what I meant to say but was inarticulate-- things are stuck at a stalemate regarding severance.  I agree with everything you say-- that's just wishful thinking on my part that rev. Newman-Moore would start up a church. I suppose that isn't happening.  Maybe a professorship or she could write more books.  [/quote]
