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

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....QUOTE]

thats exactly right.

I am more uptight about UPC since I have left and the junk I have been told
for staying away.

Now I am a rebel, off color in my spirit, upc basher, hater, sowing dis-cord etc.

But if you meet in person at a UPC service I will not gripe and complain about the UPC.

But If we sit down and talk openly I will discuss how I feel about the UPC.

98 percent of my gripes about UPC are done on-line.

But I am glad some UPC ministers are hearing and reading what people think.

Forum's are a good thing, when it comes to talking about issues.

I know 15-20 years ago, if this forum was up and running; UPC would forbid chatting here.

They might be more apt to reach and hear what YOU think if you did it with a different attitude or in a different way

Wow!

I don't know how much longer I am going to be able to stay. My head has swiveled back and forth so much today in total disbelief that I think it is about to come loose at the hinges.

Just when I think I heard it all...

That may be true of a small minority, Necker, but have you read Cooper's posts?

Do you endorse his manner and attitude?

I don't see how you possibly could.

What does CC1, Felicity, Pianoman, Carpenter have in common?

They are all what we call liberal on the Apostolic scale. much like Daniel and Coop.

They also have a great deal of respect from people like RRFord and Coonskinner and Elder Epley and others who are very conservitive.

They debate, discuss, get heated and dont have the spirit of Ham.

I dont know how else to convey it.
