I believe religious organization as we have known it is obsolete with the technology and means of travel we have today.

I think you're one hundred percent correct.

The Church of Christ has existed and pretty much thrived for two hundred years or so with absolutely no structure as far as headquarters, national, district and sectional officials and official national conferences.

Colleges and publishing houses have sprung up, some with a more liberal and others with a more conservative bent.

Men fellowship and give their money where they feel comfortable and draw their own lines.

Bloated religious organizational structure is a thing of the past.

I have to say I'm surprised there's not more news coming out of Tulsa.
When is the Q&A session they were scheduled to have? Maybe that's when we'll get some more news...

I think TLC has some explainging to do. WHY would he be there if he isn't leaving the UPC? (i already heard his answer) Why support something that is anti-UPC if he's still with us? AND yes, they ARE anti-UPC. If they say we're headed in the wrong direction and they push the eject button and start their own thing, they're anti upc

I honestly think it is a waste of time-energy-money. That's just me.

I too am wondering about the slow information either so much is going on the folks are overloaded to post it or so little it does not seem worth the effort?

TLC could not leave and go with them on the grounds of wwpf being holier. Because he allowed Lanny to stay at FPC for years KNOWING what lanny was doing. That's swatting at a gnat and swallowing a camel.

You guys might want to checkout ApostolicSummit.Blogspot.com Because he has a post up on about the Q and Session. Insteresting enough where they may get some of the ministers and pastors to leave the UPCI is the with Medical Benefits because their triple what the Upcis are.

All it is, is an extra 20K life insurance...no medical benefits. That won't be a big enough deal to get people to leave.
