Not immediately.

They will simply not pay dues next quarter.

Rant on . . .

What a weak-kneed, lily-livered, cowards way to back out of the UPC. And these are men of courage and conviction?!? HA! One mo time . . . HA!

IF . . . again, IF . . . if if if if if if IF this actually happens, going this way will give them the excuse that they didn't send in their cards, but the UPC dropped them for not paying their dues.

That way, it's the organizations fault for them being dropped and they won't have to stand up to the organization and hand in their cards.

Wow. I really don't think this is true. Partly because some of the men seem to enjoy making a splash and going this way is kind of, well, boring and anti-climactic.

Rant off . . .

that wasn't very polite coming from a fellow preacher

It's been reported that some have walked up to their Dist. Supt and handed in their cards at the convention

I don't think Res. #4 will effect those in Arizona District much. I have a friend who thinks it won't effect Tennessee District at all either.

I'm sorry if it offends some, but it's the truth.

Kudos and respect to those who handed in their card . . . though I think it's silly to do so as a knee-jerk reaction to a resolution being passed.

Maybe they should have a big Card Cutting Party at church, where the pastor and any licensed ministers get up on the platform and hack their cards to pieces with a pair of scissors while they shout and dance and speak in tongues.....

Brother Paul Dugas went home to be with Jesus a year or so ago, Thad.

I wonder if these conservatives will go over to the NCO?

Would they be welcomed?

You are thinking of Brother Philip Dugas, Paul Dugas's younger brother. He is pastoring the church in St. Johns. I think he is still the editor of the Accent; I haven't seen a copy of it in several months.
