Rico,
I think you should cut Bill Price a little slack. He's a very sincere young man. He's been through several phases in his "search for truth." When he grabs onto something he grabs hard and believes that "this is it --anything else is wrong." He has been accused of flip-flopping and I guess that's a pretty descriptive term. He comes off as narrow minded and judgmental but I think it's just his zeal. Years ago I read an article called "Zeal Without Knowledge is a Runaway Horse." I think it was in the Apostolic Sentinel which was published by the Texas Dist. of the UPC and Bro. Murray Burr was editor. I don't remember for sure if that's where it was or who was the author. Bro. Price is young and young in the Lord. He has lots of learning to do. Meanwhile, when he comes off strong and narrow minded, just let some of it roll off your back. If you feel secure in the Lord and in your beliefs, you don't have to defend yourself or fight back all the time.

Bro. Price,
I'm not talking behind your back. This is posted publicly so you can read it. I'm not judging you. I do believe you really Love the Lord. I just think you should show more love and respect for those who differ with you. We are all brothers and sisters here. We can disagree without being disagreeable and we can object without being objectionable.
