I stand by my comment of "plus we need to get over our stupid rules and do what ever it takes to reach more people, That is what the UPCI is really suppose to be all about."
its true or organization can be so caught up on rules and regulation that we miss what we are suppose to be all about. THE GREAT COMMISSION " Mar 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."
and an example of this would be the recent split.

Opinions are like noses - everyone has one.

Got a feeling this isn't going to end well for you -- but, you were warned.

Exactly what do you think are the stupid rules?

I'm still puzzled by a couple of things - the impact of the WPF on local churches in Canada (none) and how the leadership of Canada came to be centered in New Brunswick and seem to share their aspirations and dilemmas with a Bible school boy.

Hey i was just wondering who you are Bullwinkle because you can hide yourself and talk big but at least i am not hiding behind my user name.

stupid rules would be things in the UPCI handbook that are not "doctrine", Which i have taken and passed may I add.

and if everyone has an openion then what is yours on this issue?
Do you think the UPCI is perfect?

I am not down talking the UPCI at all i am just stating what i think. This is a forum and that's what you do. I am very mush for the growth of the UPCI and what Brother Bernard is doing is just wonderful, he is leading us in the right direction.

It is true that I choose to use a username although it certainly is not from any need to hide from Bible school boys. Nor is it from a need to make myself appear bigger than I am, I've lived long enough to realize just how insignificant I am.

No, I don't think the UPC is perfect.

Congratulations on passing your doctrine 101 class. I wish you every success in learning about doctrine over the next couple of years.

I still would advise that if you wish to get anywhere in life, particularly in the UPC, that you realize that calling articles of the manual "stupid" is probably not wise, particularly when some of the "leaders" of the UPC in Canada whom you rub shoulders with happen to read AFF. Not smart and probably not going to help your reputation.

Whether you realize it or not I am trying to help you avoid embarassment.

Do what you want, it's a free world...

Bro. Bullwinkle,

You're a bit late to help Bro. Arkie avoid embarassing himself.

Any aspiring young man who calls the articles of the UPCI "stupid rules" on an open forum is either naive or as dumb as a fence post.

He still has not defined what he meant by "what ever it takes to reach more people." He leaves us to ponder whether he objects to uncut hair, trousered ladies, or just what it is that he defines as "stupid rules."

Bro. Arkie
I noticed you have removed your name, a wise move but a day late and a dollar short.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
