But as usual, I make my points by going overboard.

I read all the new posts (at least, on the threads I'm interested in reading) and if there's cross-talk or overlapping dialog between threads I don't think that's a harm. And if the topic of "eldership" properly needs to be subsumed in a larger examination, I doubt Peter will weep at the demise of his worthy thread. To the extent that this topic arises again elsewhere, we can endeavor to bring it back as appropriate and we can even work in parallel on two threads if it works out that way. Perhaps "eldership" was just "Chapter One" and "ekklesia" needs to be "Chapter Two."
You worry too much, aron.
