Wasn't there a guy who had a church in Nashville who left like in 1985 or something. Why didn't he write a book?
I looked on the internet like five times! I couldn't find it!  |
Reeves was more a prolific author
There is nothing preventing Sabin from self publishing and selling on line through his own website or on other venders
BTW there's no conspiracy. It's pretty obvious they don't sell Sabin's stuff because he left.
The UPC is too small to exert control over someone not writing a book. As I said ANYONE can write and publish their own book if they want. You can do it online now adays
How is the UPC supposed to prevent someone from writing a book? That makes no sense. Do they collaborate with the CIA and use the Mind Ray to subvert the thoughts of these former UPCers?

Re: Ministers that leave the UPCI
the only people that write books, generally, are those that have a reason to believe someone will buy them. If you are Independent and NOT on TV, view know or care how "big" your church is outside of your city.
There are actually a LOT of large churches the size of Christ Church most of us never heard of because they are not on TV.

It was never my intent that the UPCI was bullying people. That is why I threw the JOKE in there. I agree with everything you said in this post. Ministers write books when they think there is a demand.
Finally a logical argument.

Re: Ministers that leave the UPCI
Wasn't there some guy on here a while back, maybe a year or so, who left the UPC, and said he had a "hair cutting party" or something to that effect? I can't remember his name, but he was on here advertising a book that he had written... anyone know who I'm referring to?
I also know MF Blume, who occasionally posts here, also left the UPC, and has recently written quite a few books. I always enjoyed his posts, and thoughts, even though he doesn't post much here any more, and even though I didn't always agree... he was an intellectual, and kind during discussions.

Writing it in a "fiction" genre would probably be best.... perhaps the most peaceful way to do it!

Agreed! Not only that, but he maintains integrity in formal debate as well.
