Re: 2010 UPCI Resolutions

OK Smithy and ILG. I am sorry, let me try this again without unnecessary provocation.

ILG, it seems awkward reading disparaging slang about the UPC on an Apostolic Forum. Why do you feel free to speak of such a large group of Christians as puke? I do not doubt you may have had a very unpleasant experience. Yet you should know many or most see their UPC connection as a wonderful thing. You know I myself do not agree with all and am very outspoken at times. Yet, when I read "UPChuck" I think of my pastors who are humble men of God and some of the finest Christians on earth. I find the comment less than funny and can only imagine how those more devoted to the UPC denomination must feel when they read your post.

Smith, Though I resisted last night, I am sorry for the "slime" comment. I am also sorry that you care so little, especially knowing you also had a bad experience. It seems you of all people would indeed give a care in "hades". How is it that you are only gleeful? Do you not wish them well? After all are we not brothers in Christ?

Right. I should have said it's objectionable and offensive language in my personal opinion. I have no hard feelings here at all. In fact, if ILG were fixing a wonderful supper tonight, I would love partake of it with you and propose a toast to you both.

Boy that was self serving eh?

I'm just rubbing it in. You're not offended, are you? Most other translations don't use the word, "Offend" but instead say, "Nothing can make them stumble." I don't think I made you stumble, did I?

S'alright, Hoove. Maybe I should have left it as a private joke between myself and a few others. It just seemed to fit the conversation, so I threw it in. Sorry to have offended you. I certainly wish all those well that are in the UPC. That's part of the reason I write. I want to help people see the whole picture, as distasteful as people sometimes find that. I am what I am and I am who I am. I find that I have things to share and I believe in that myself. In this, I find good in what I have been through.

I don't know, but I feel no guilt whatsoever and find it uproarously funny. If you find fault with that, please pray for me.

But see ILG, you are also laughing at me, my family and others who aren't intended targets...

Sorry to have offended you. I can have a difference of opinion and still be sorry to have offended.

I'm sorry Mikie - you will have to "kiss and huge" someone else. I learned a long time ago one has to draw the line somewhere.
