Re: Open Letter to the General Board of the UPCI

If someone has something to say to the general board of any organization this not the platform to do it from. I've had enough arrows shot at me vicariously through channels that were not legitimate for protest that I am a bit sensitive to this kind of veiled attack.

Re: Open Letter to the General Board of the UPCI

a. There does not appear to be much of distinction between those who sit in the pew and those who stand on the platform.
I would think that you would not want a distinction. Do you want those in leadership to stick out like a sore thumb or something?


b. Pastors often depart from traditional “church dress” to a casual look of open collar, un-tucked shirt, sport coat and jeans.
Why would this be a problem? Is there really a dress code for the type of clothes a minister should wear when he gets up to preach or teach? AND does anyone really care?

c. Pastors prefer sitting in a chair or behind a table. Generally there is no physical pulpit visible.
Does anyone care if a pulpit is visible or not?


If this is the kind of things they have to worry about they should really thank God and be happy. There are bigger and more pressing problems in the world then this.

Unsigned letters aren't worth the paper they're written on.

I recommend 60 seconds in a dark room with Perez Hilton. That would scare me straight.
