I would like to see a decent picture of Reverend Jackley so we can get a decent portrait of him painted for posterity. I am still friends with Mark Wilson, he never left the church or Creativity and remained on formal terms with Ben Klassen. My own view of Ben Klassen in his last year that he was "non compos mentis" not of sound mind - this following the death of his beloved wife - his judgements were compromised as was his handing the church to McCarty.
What Mark Wilson did do was of significance because he did build the largest contingent grouping of Creators of about 200 people.
My own view on leadership is that it has to be earned and not bought. As in the Catholic Church, a person must be judged by their deeds and works for Creativity. If Cailen relinquishes his title which he has earned then it must go to the Creator who has built the biggest contingent of Creators. I would prefer he not relinquish the title since the church needs authority and stability above all things. This does not preclude him ever suspending his own leadership temporarily or a decade interregnum without a formal Pontifex so that Creators can build without hindrance, schism or persecution.
