My co-worker just sent this to me, the e-mail itself is irrelevant to the conversation, we were just cracking up at the apparently apostolic "sanitizing" of the e-mail!!
This is what she sent me:
I think an Apostolic must have originally written this. Pay attention to the first line... =D

This should give us something to think about.
Subject: U. S. "no longer a Christian Nation"
Dear Friends,
As I was listening to a news program last night, I watched in horror as Barack Obama made the statement with pride. . ."we are no longer a Christian nation; we are now a nation of Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, . . .
Some will not get the joke...it will take several times reading it to get it....don't worry if at first you don't get it....it is coming to a pew near you.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
Oh! (They probably had their head turned so the could still make heaven)
