On the other hand, his college buddy DID name names, going out of his way to call their mutual friend and trash DB. The mutual friend, who is still UPC, and who might actually share some of the concerns the college buddy has concerning DB, was so concerned that he felt like he should warn DB.

DB is the violated party here, not the college Buddy. Those of us who do not view everything through our politically correct UPC lenses understand this. Those who think DB is backslid think he deserves whatever he gets and do not apply equal laws of justice to his situation.
Not apples and oranges. And my response has nothing to do with the UPC or how I view DB.

But if this is how you want to justify it, whatever. Of course, God knows the names and His Word is pretty clear about backbiting, gossip, false witness and spreading lies.

Doesn't matter what AFF thinks of DB's post, but it does matter what God and His Word says. I challenge you to find anything in His Word which condones and justifies the OP. It's simply not there.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
