Understanding Petition Numbers
I petition that Part II of the resolution entitled "The
Status of Women," pages 372-374, be rescinded and removed from the 1996 Book
of Resolutions inasmuch as it contains unreliable data from the late 1960's
and 1970's that have been repudiated by subsequent scientific studies,
political and economic assumptions that are outmoded, and broad generalizations
that lend themselves to misrepresenting the views of many members of The United
Methodist Church. The entire document is so flawed as to require a complete
reworking.
