UPC Has A Hair Cutting Party
Now that TV has been voted in they put 100 barber chairs on the platform of conference and had all the ladies cut their hair while the men danced around rejoicing.....
Isn't that ridiculous...but there are those who seem to think that this is what will happen now....
AND IT WON'T HAPPEN!!!
There are MANY CON and MOD preachers who have NO intention of EVER LEAVING the UPC and WILL NOT allow the standards to be thrown away!!!
I just don't get the whole "we've lost it all" mentality!!!!!
TV allowance will not make one iota of difference in the UPC!

I have seen so many lies posted. The best one is the one Triumphant 1 did his best to combat. You know, the hair cutting party thing?
Prominent members of this board chose to believe the lie and even continue to spread it, even though T1 had totally proved it was false.

It is rediculous to think....
TV will not change what the UPC is...radio hasn't, internet broadcasting hasn't, preachers praying with Bill Clinton hasn't......

I personally find this thread revolting. You are no longer a card carrying member of the UPC therefore you really have no personal stock in it's demise nor it's prospering. So why all of the concern?
Why would you poke fun at a group of BRETHREN that are obviously hurting? This a major happening in our ranks. We have some that feel like they have been broadsided and are reeling from the outcome of yesterday's vote. But we have bystanders looking in and making light of something so monumental.
The broadness of resolution #4 is the fault of every "no" vote on the amandment. I understand that. But let's let them deal with this without all of the joking.

I find a lot of threads revolting...so what.
You are in no place to tell me when and where I can post or to reprimand me on any fashion so I'd suggest you just stick with the subject.
I have every right to have an opinion in this matter and you have no right to tell me that just because I left I can't talk about it. I just hate it when you guys pull that card..."you left you have no voice"....I have a voice here because I am a participating member of this forum. So you can take your little immature self to another thread if you don't particularly like this one...ok.
Now, i am not belittling anyone...I just don't think the UPC is going to be effected in such a way as to merit the level of fear being generated...
The UPC is not going to lose its standards over TV....
Why that opinion is insulting to you looney...I don't know.

The opinion concerning the UPC and losing it's standards is not my beef. That is an opinion and you are certainly entitled to it, sir. The title of the thread, the first sentence and the general tone of both is my problem. It has an air of joviality, of poking fun at a fear that some have. It is not totally unfounded. Neither you nor I really know where this will lead. Only time will truly tell us which direction the organization will take and the impact res #4 will have.

I did NOT care one bit for the title and was prepared to tell T1 so, BUT I read the rest.
It was meant to show how the thinking of some is...that some think Res 4 may sound the bell of death to the org...
We ALL need to calm down here...

I am not making fun of anyone...I am saying that this absurd rumor...just as absurd as it was when it was told on me...is as absurd as the fear mongering going on about the UPC has now LOST ITS HERITAGE and stuff..
The UPC is the UPC and will continue to be the UPC because prominent men, who voted yes on res 4, are staunch advocates for the separation standards...
For Res 4 to affect the UPC as is being told (losing everything standards wise) is as absurd as them having a hair cutting party at Gen. Conf.....
