Thumbs down Ran into a conservative at the gas station this evening....

Self 'splanatory.

Anyway, so this minister (not the pastor, btw) asked when I'm going back to church.
Rather then explain the "why's" I simply replied, "I can't return. I have my reasons.."

and the guy says "sure you can [return], just repent!!"

Berk, by your own admission, you have done a little more than kicking standards and subculture to the curb. You don't have to agree with everything to get out of a Presbyterian church and back to a Oneness Pentecostal church.

Well, there is always the PCI in Visalia.

Rumors are that he stole 13 families from a UP church in his area. That does not sit well with me.
