Open forums are a form of sham democracy. I have seen this at the congregational level. I am guessing that leaders do not like the alleged gossiping. Write a letter or come to the open forum. We want your input, wink....wink. The committee will then take your ideas back to yet another meeting and evaluate them. The decisions have already been made at the top. The leaders' view is that the crying babies (laity) need to be pacified.
