As usual this situation turned into a chance for the usual suspects to bash the UPC......the Borg, the Mafia, etc

Just because some joker threatens PP doesnt' mean that every UPC member is like that.

I am UPC and I really dont give a hoot what PP or any other on this forum do and certainly would not mutter threats against them.

Now if they were part of the District that I serve on the board in and they were in violation of our rules than I would take action.

Daniel,
I think you are being unreasonable as to what I am trying to convey.

The original poster is responsible for any fall out he/she receives by the wording of their threads/posts.

You are going to find hotheads around you at church, work, community, etc.

We are responsible first as the ones initiating the threads/posts.

Daniel, you know as a man, that when you become the challenger you are going to find someone willing to step into the ring.

That is my point and I am not justifying unethical behavior. If someone feels personally offended they are going to respond. Personally, IMO, a threatening PM just means someone's buttons were tweaked and without thinking, they retaliated. They would do that if the discussion was in a room setting.

A boxer can retaliate with a flurry of jabs and an uppercut ... but not w/ punches below the belt or a "kidney punch' ...

If someone can't hang w/ the heavyweights ... then take a walk

Totally a need for it.

Okay, but to me this translates you can never say anything less than complimentary about your own denomination. Which may be wise but perhaps difficult or impossible to do.

I understand though.

I have not once bashed the UPC on this thread. I have spoken against a mentality that exists in some within and without the org. You are right, very few men are threatening.

BTW, I have not violated any of our rules to my knowledge.
