How well thought out do you believe this response to "the move" is Rev. O'Connell?

The following allegation made by Ben Alexander is found on the YRUU Institutional Memory Project blog -

"LRY did not trade it's financial independence for anything; the UUA seized control of LRY finances in a move that many LRYers felt was unethical at best, if not a downright violation of the terms of LRY's financial endowment."

Here is my response to that allegation -

This would by no means be the first time that the UUA seized control of finances in a move that many people felt was unethical at best, if not a downright violation of the terms of the *charitable trusts* they seized them from. Just Google - "Robin Edgar" and Unitarian charitable trusts - in Google Groups as well as the main Google site for more information about that. Or just read this sermon by CUC founder Rev. Charles Eddis.

This is worth a read too, for the UUA`s spin on things -

It looks like The Emerson Avenger just might have yet another Unitarian*Universalist financial abuse to blog about soon. . .
