I don't agree with him [Steve Epley - ed.] that a preacher isn't a real man of God if he doesn't preach against jewelry, but I can accept that he sees it that way.
Rico,

Thank you for stating your position.

Are you willing to elaborate on the bible you use to get there?

I think I perceive some depth, awareness, and sensibility bubbling up through the anti-ultracon reactionary in you.

Who says these forums can't be helpful?
