I do love everyone here, but I do feel that there has been a progression away from what was intended. I almost never post, anymore, and rarely read anything, except for the Sis Alvear threads.
There is much more I would like to say, but I do not believe that it would make a difference.
Jim Yohe used to rattle my chain, greatly, but he made me think.
I do not think he would be impressed with the current forum.

One thing to keep in mind is that there are, and have been for several months, just one or two posters with a rotating list of screen names who act like attack dogs one moment then play the "Oh whoa is me, I'm being persecuted!" role when some people bite back. Just one such person can really ruin the whole board in my humble opinion.
But..... When talking with the old guard of the UPC, I seem to remember from here and other boards a complete refusal to discuss non-traditional ideas and will ban someone at the drop of a hat -think, Everyone's Apostolic for many examples. So on one hand you have irritating jerks, and on the other you have the apostolic gestapo/good ol boys club/amen corner. Pick your poison.
