I wanted to post on the general point of silence. There is so much complacency, apathy, passivity, indifference on certain issues. Then there is also so much oppression, peer pressure, herd mentality that enter into social situations. Also the general point of glossophobia must be considered.  For years I have attended churches and every week see almost every attender never give feedback to pastors or SS teachers, pro or con,  after presentations. Has the SDA church been verbally abused /brow beat..bored for so long, being labeled the lukewarm Laodicean church, that it has evolved into the SARDIS DEAD church?
