Re: Another SPLIT from the UPCI???
Someday we will look back at the debate over tv and laugh ourselves silly.
What a waste of time!

Re: Another SPLIT from the UPCI???
Dontcha just love it when folks start spewing incorrect facts and figures?
Then when you call 'em on it, they get all red-faced and sweaty as they try to defend the indefensible junk they posted?
Funny stuff.
30,000 ministers in the UPC? In our dreams, maybe! lol

tj you missed the point too. the point wasnt the number factor, if you notice i put a question mark at the end of the numbers indicating it wasnt my guess, only what i read somewhere. the point was the miniscule fors vs against and the divsion it caused. but i suppose that is a debate tactic, find a point no matter how small and hammer it, hoping everyone will forget the big picture. that dog dont hunt with me. finding a pimple on carrie underwood doesnt prove her any less than vava voom!! but i will volunteer to try find one if you think it would !

I respectfully disagree with you. I also happened to be a part of that aforementioned org at the time much of that was happening. You need to get your facts straight to be able to have credibility when you engage in discussion like this or don't take it so serious!
You get on this forum, write a serious sounding post using ficticous and exaggerated numbers, then get angry and offended when someone calls you on the point.
Dear sir, we all make mistakes and get called on them once in a while! You shrug, laugh and go on, apologizing if you desire! But when you make statements like you did, expect to get called on it! Either substantiate your statement with facts or clarify it!
As far as Carrie Underwoods pimple, don't have a clue what you are talking about. Sorry.

The UPC currently has around 8700 ministers worldwide, not 30,000.
And of those 8700, only around 2000 showed up in Tampa to vote. The margin of passage was around 2-3%. That is very common in many ballot initiatives, and most Presidential elections fall within a similar margin.
Please, don't rewrite history to fit your agenda. |
Ed, you are actually wrong on these numbers. The UPC has over 30,000 ministers.

Worldwide being the key.
I wonder what percentage of the 30,000 had television privileges before the resolution that has Oletime's knickers in a knot?
If memory serves me right, the UPC of Jamaica has allowed television for several years.

Sure, but that was Oletime's assertion too.
