Re: CA. Western Dist.aftermath of WPF- hardly a de
Didn't Vaughn Morton have 6 or more daughter works? Did they stay or go?
What about N Wilson? Was the Asian work there considered a separate work, or was it included in the mother church?
Honestly, I don't really care if 50% left. The greatest thing the UPCI could do to boost itself as an Org of integrity is clear the air and make a formal statement giving the complete numbers of ministers/churches prior to the resolution, and the current number of ministers/churches as of this month. This would quench any wildfires, and show a lot of honestly and integrity, IMHO.

BG, there ARE problems within the structure of the UPCI (and most other organizations) that are real, and addressing them or discussing them does not equate "speaking against" the organization.
I have been around the UPCI for my entire life, and I can tell you that I have heard GREATLY exaggerated reports from many different "reputable" sources. Who knows their reasoning, or if the reporter himself was misinformed, but still, the reports were inaccurate and often misleading to the general constituency. It's called: Politics.

But, this thread was posted regarding the WD, which I am currently a part of. Whether or not it should have been is a moot point now. Pretty much immediately it became target practice.
Some comments were made about the distribution of the information, which I thought needed to be clarified. Also, comments were made that seem to target people that I know as liars. Should I just have kept my mouth shut on this stuff, as I typically do?
I have never made my self out to be a cheerleader for the UPC, and I never will. However, I do like fairness, and the thread seemed a little out of whack in that department. Carry-on..
