I didn't generalize. I asked questions that any one that considers themselves can answer to yes or not or add their own criteria.

How come on other threads you guys can say you are conservative and label others liberal but when it comes to actually listing what you each thinks makes a conservative you shy away from answering? Is it that conservatives so called don't all hold the same standards and views either?

It is like an election, where the most liberal candidates out there feel like they MUST move to the middle in order to win.
I see the similarities striking.

This is true. Almost, if not all churches we fellowship with have different standards then we hold and some standards we don’t hold. However we agree on doctrinal issues.

Well Jekyll just said I painted with a broad brush...What really then makes someone a conservative and the rest not?

One person here said if you wear shorts of any length you are not Apostolic, then another brother said he would not say you are not apostolic, but that these standards are still a dividing line for us.

These terms become almost meaningless

What sort of doctrinal issues? Just acts 2:38 and Oneness? TV and video? Do you all hold the same standards?

we do not all hold the same stand on standards. but we don't fellowship with churches that don't hold to the same stand on doctrinal issues.

So, are there liberals that hold different standards as well? Will one liberal say to another liberal, "you're too liberal and you're going to hell"?

I don't know, but quite frankly many here that are getting labeled liberals might just be conservatives with different standards
