LOL!!! That never entered my mind.

Speaking of racist it has been funny watching Geraldine Ferrarro being a victim of her parties own political correctness. She tried to point out Obama's lack of experience with just two years in the Senate and now has been painted a racist after 30 years of promoting lib causes!

The problem with discussing standards is that if you come down on the side against the corporate extra biblical legalism and point out how silly some are then instantly people like you take that and run with it to insulting conclusions like you just expressed but have not been expressed by most here.

Now I know you either joking or biased,

this forum is full of just those expressions

Pressing, you have known me on the forum for a along time. Do you really believe I cannot fairly admin from my perspective? I would ask you to show me a single instance where I have done anything as an admin that was less than fair and impartial.

I am disappointed that you are considering leaving because I am an admin. I could understand if I had actually done anything in tha capacity that would have been wrong or biased.

I guess only conservatives have the capacity to serve fairly as an admin?
CC1,
I never said that I considering leaving because you are Admin. (lol) What I said was, "Now, if I have, somehow, broken a Board rule by criticizing a said Owner, Admin or Moderator, then you are free to ban me. It would not hurt my feelings."

Do I think you can Administer fairly from your perspective? I'm not sure you do on the standards issue, since you asked. There is a difference in laying out your opinion and making it ALWAYS come across as taunting, critical and condescending. That is my impression of your words when you speak about the things you don't like about the UPC.

I haven't seen Renda ever do these things. She shares her opinion and tries to see both sides of the issue, for each person individually. I can respect that. I know she doesn't agree with said, "standards", but she doesn't use her words to make the ones carrying that said "standard" as ignorant.

As to your question on the Conservatives having the capacity to serve fairly - I don't think either side is more favored. I believe we should be compelled to state our opinions on any issue without ridiculing the other.

My best friend, who attends church with me, worships with me, is also used in the gifts and does not keep standards. She respects me and I respect her. We don't argue about these things. We both realize that we must EACH make a decision for how we feel we need to present ourselves to God. How we feel it is best for us. How we feel we are being lead. It should be that way for everyone on this Forum.

Good post. But it is not this way. Your spiritual convictions that may be derived from your relationship with God are being slammed on here as not being of God at all but you have been brainwashed by the mean evil mothership.

Truth is, especially in Arkansas district and some north Louisiana churches I have been to, UPC is not stressing the standards. I don't care what letters from above you post on here, our preachers preach what they feel of God to preach. Lately that has been dicipleship, evanglism, get out and bring the lost to church, if He wants them to shave or not He will tell them.

With the exception of some UPC churches and the WPF I think the days of craming standards down ones throat are over,

Some just can't let go of the past. I believe if the UPC repealed its AoF and the standards, most on here (instead of being happy) would then slam them for being hypocrits all this time.

Seems like it is just the nature of things here.

Scotty,
You are right - it is not something being slammed down the throat any longer.

God will have a church. He is building His church. Much has changed since I've come this way 22 years ago. I would prefer the church to evolve into what God want us to be, what He expects us to be. Each person must follow their heart. We need to respect each person's decision for him/herself.
