Why are SOME UPCers so set on defending it at any cost?

* Why are some folks so set on defending the org at any cost even if means being wrong? Why do they feel they must be vanguards of a man-made institution?
* Why can't some step back and examine issues without trepidation or fear that they may deemed blasphemous?
* Why do some beat the drum of a man made org and forget there is a larger Body?

Don't they have anything better to do with their time?
I mean didn't Paul and Peter get into it ?
Weren't there issues of contention? See Acts 15.

Just curious....

No one is going to admit it or confess it but there are a lot of hurt, angry and bitter people towards UPC that go way back . their lashing out is unresolved hurt.

I'm not pointing my finger in Judgment as I too have had some Bad feelings arise towards organization but once I realized it MEN in the organization NOT the Organization itself I no longer made such broad sweeping judgments

They are welcome to discuss/declare their hurts.... while being civil about it....

Daniel A and J-Roc took it a bit overboard....

Not everyone has a beaten down attitude nor they have been hurt etc.

Many of the men who have left the UPCI or will leave shortly.

Have no problem with many of their friends in the organization.

They have not been hurt nor do they care...

All they want it the leading of the spirtit and the freedom to pursue the call of God.

The hurts usually develope once men who stay in the organization tear those apart for leaving....
