Interpretation of posts is, ironically enough, something that takes place on discussion forums.... are you implying you should be immune from any criticism to your posts???

you made a valid point regarding the technology issue not being addressed by the UPC, which I agreed with.... I also stated my disagreement with your "head in sand" comment toward the older-minister "majority" which has periodically voted against the usage of TV....

If Res 4 does not pass, there will be many who will continue to do what they want anyway. What may begin to formulate is the push for "enforcement" of the manual. If that begins to happen, then the defections will start to commence.

Exactly.

This is what I meant when I said "they see the handwriting on the wall".

So much for integrity in the ministry. This, to me, speaks of rebellion. A preacher wants his saints to line up with his "platform standards" but will "do what he wants", disregarding the rest of the constituency.

I would hope that men of conscience would just leave rather than violate the rules until they were forced out.

I know there is a feeling that with the AS and things like TV that the org. is meddling beyond what it should but two wrongs don't make one right.

If men can't abide by the rules of their org. then they should leave.

I happen to think that a very viable PAJC / 3 stepper doctrinally oriented new org. could probably succeed quite well with a very limited agenda.

you are certainly entitled to your own opinion, as I am mine....

As a poster, I agree and disagree with many topics I see fit, regardless of who posts it.... I might agree with people some topics, I may not regarding others....

anything that may have taken place in the past is not a cloud you'll be able to hang over my head.... if you ever have a problem with my posting or anyone else's for that matter.... just click the "Report Post" button and several AFF staffers will review it....

keep your chin up.... it'll be alright....
