LY was judged pretty harshly for a sermon he preached on the subject just before he left.
That's what I was thinking.

I don't believe at that time, the ones that left were saying that UPC would self-destruct either.

Of course, the issue is the more conservative are so passionate about their convictions and beliefs that they can only see things through their eyes and no one can fault them for that. However, I think sometimes they paint themselves into a corner.
