Sad Observation of Threads: LET'S CHANGE DIRECTION!

I know everyone's opening page will be different depending on how long it's been since they logged on but today I made a sad observation... on the front page when I logged on I found that 8 of the front 25 threads were either slamming the UPC or being used to disregard traditional Apostolic views of righteousness.

I find that incredibly sad. We have a good forum with a grand array of distinct views but, as much as I hate to say it, some of it is more antiApostolic than Apostolic.

Let's change direction! How about some real threads of substance besides the grande old 'bread and butter' "I went to a UPC Church and met Count Dracula!" / "How to whack your hair off in 36 simple steps and still feel good about it" / "Will shacking up with someone in an act of Adultery really send you to Hell if you repent daily?" type of stuff.

GOOD GRIEF!

(Where's Charlie Brown when you need him?!? He says "GOOD GRIEF" so much better than I do.)
