As far as the "good riddance" post that someone apologized for saying on another thread...I have to tell you, after speaking with many in California, that IS the sentiment. They feel it is the best for the UPC and this has been coming for a loooong time. If you have never been or lived here, maybe you wouldn't understand but I guess it has been BRUTAL out here with fellowship and politics and it is very sad.
So...maybe "good riddance" ain't so bad???
Best for both camps I guess....hmmmm. It is still very bothersome to me.

No kidding! LOL!
I've never heard such a mess of confusion and disorder as what has been coming out of that district for some time now. it's been amazing to me to read.
Something about the left coast I'm tellin' ya. Weird spirits out here.

Brutal is not even the tip of the iceberg. There have been some fatalities in this bloodbath. It is a shame what is has been done by some in the name of God.
CA is really "ground zero" for much of this, however I don't think the Tulsa group is going to provide the "ultra-conservative" environment that many hard liners will want.
Some of the Tulsa names seem strike me as being "better off" in the UPC than with the "UC's" that are also departing. It all strikes me as a lot of confusion and noise.
I dont know what the problem is with the term "good riddance" as it relates to the current exodus.
Seems to me, both sides ought to be happy to be rid of the other. Some that are leaving are doing so because the UPCI isnt what they are. others are leaving because they havent been able to infulence the UPCI as much as they feel they should.
at the end of the day, the tiger who's tail was grabbed in 1992, just got loose.
peace to you all.

It's the difference between "Kingdom Building" and Building God's Kingdom..

The "UC" environment isn't looking at the Tulsa group for answers. The Tulsa group will never be protrayed accurately here.
