But I don't think anyone cares what kind of rules you abide by if you are just mopping the bathroom floors!

And some ministers do understand the vast differnce between someone cleaning a facility and leading people.

Got a feeling this conversation will go downhill from here. Just for perspective: Would you want to person who cleans your dentists office to also clean your teeth?

Simple. DO you not think a person that is in front of people might perhaps need to adhere to some guidelines that would be different than those who work behind the scenes?

I was pretty much saying that, when you are on the platform, there are a certain set of "rules" that you are expected to live by... Many pastors have their platform sign a paper stating that they will not do certain things or participate in certain things.... But I don't think they are going to be given a paper to sign if they want to help out by cleaning the church....understand what I am saying? I am speaking from what I've seen in my church alone, now... Some of the people who clean, or work behind the scenes, they don't follow the same "rules" (that term gets aggravating) as the rest of us... BUt by no means do I think they are the Lessor of us all...And just because some of us are on the platform, that doesn't mean I don't do my share of the behind the scenes work....

I kind of thought that was what you were saying. It seemed you were having an issue with a Pastor requiring certain things of folks that are on the platform that are not required of others.
