Well to be honest this went through my mind as well. There are a bunch of people who have posted all the way from before the inception of FCF through NFCF to AFF who are NOT UPCI and haven't been for years, but they still are interested in what happens within the Oneness Pentecostal movement generally and the UPCI specifically and post their thoughts and opinions freely.

There are a bunch on this forum who do of which I am just one.

Also, I'll just use this as a springboard to say that I'm not living according to any "codes". I don't need to because the codes don't apply to me since I'm not part of the UPC presently and haven't been for about 10 years.

What I do in regard to my personal appearance I do for personal reasons not because I HAVE to, but because it's personal choice or conviction.

I must say it's interesting to read public comments being made about me when people don't really know the facts about whether or not I wear pantaloons or bob my hair or wear earbobs or what have you, and ascribing motive to what I do and don't do.

In all fairness to anyone posting about you your avatar for years clearly showed "bobbed hair". I know that TB posted a couple of pages back that you don't have "bobbed hair" and while that may be true I believe it is a fairly new phenomena occurring just within the past year or so. Perhaps sometime after the angel brought you the Pentecostal Herald in the bookstore and before your return to the fold in Tampa.

I think this is the kinda stuff that provokes the catty encounters....then TB has to come to the rescue.


Methinks some women get stoked by this, just a hunch...

Dear DEAR Felicity,

Honey, you are no longer a UPC-ite. Why on earth do you care one little bit about what happens to the UPCI at this point???

Why on EARTH do you care to post your thoughts and opinions on a matter that does not concern you?

Do you not know that at this point you have lost all influence and affluence in the UPCI - so you really need to build a bridge and GET OVER YOURSELF!

(and for those of you in TULSA - these statements are posted with tongue firmly implanted in cheek)

Her post to you was TIC bouncing off what those people had told her.

Make sense?

Oh. It was tongue in cheek? Well, I never picked up on that at all. Okay. Then I guess that makes everything okay.

Yes, it was TIC...and she said it was....see her post in bold type red font. Anyway, I'm just trying to clarify things...usually rgcraig does that for us and I have found that helpful when I feel lost in the threads

I think what some of these conservative guys are saying is that if I would state my thoughts and opinions NICELY, they would be willing to admit that OCCASIONALLY my statements would be more palatable and that if I were to say very NICE things about the dear men of God who have been conducting themselves in un-gentleman-like manner for a number of years, THEN MAYBE they would like me more and not be so mean to me.

Okay, I think I get it...

Dora, this is what they seek...they want you to admit that they command a certain kind of authority that deserves special attention or recognition and never get any scrutiny...that is what it comes down to as demonstrated below:

The comparison in posting style is akin to say, regal Yankee Stadium (Felicity) and...uh...Tropicana Field

And, BRAVO to TB for his recent insight to the previously uninformed comments.

Thanks JRoc. It makes more sense to me now.

Sorry, Dora. I didn't read the fine print and I had my spectacles on. LOL

You bet, Mizpeh. I just wanted to clarify because it was evident that several people did not understand in what spirit her post was written and on face value it came across very sharp.
