I didn't know I was banned until I read MOW's posting here. lol

Sure enough, they wiped out all traces of me. And man ... I had a nice Tulane page set up. Well, it's their site and their privilege.

I DID put up my blog posts on Holley, Burr, including my introductory blog post so there is no question where I stood.

Apparently brining out anything about the PCI position and the real history of salvation doctrine in the UPC is not considered palatable material over there. Nor is any frank, unvarnished reminisces about the men and events from the last 63 years that made the UPC what it is today.

And ... it's really much more of a socializing thing along the lines of Myspace even more than Synadelfios. A lot of kids are on there.

My daughter has a site on there and a lot of her relatives from her mother's side of the family.

But my writings are not welcome there, obviously.

And again, that is their perfect right.

I'm not really bummed, but it is interesting, indeed. Put me in the category of heretic, I guess!

I really thought it would take longer than that.

There's still room at the cross for you MOW.

Repent of your wicked ways and return to your first love

AFF still remains the frontrunner in intelligent divergent discussion within Apostolica ...

Dan, do you think it might have had anything do to with you posting a link to HOLYMAGICHAIR.COM buddy????

It was a banner along w/ other sites I'm associated w/ ... including a banner linking to Apostolic Friends Forum ... on my Theme page.

Might have been the AFF banner.

You're right, Tim. It is their right and I can respect that. But all I posted in my info page was that I was Ex-UPC, apostolic, baptized in Jesus' name, believed in the HGB, but didn't fool with the outward holiness stuff and didn't believe that everyone else was going to hell. I guess that was all it took. I accepted you as one of my friends, and BAM, you were gone. Then this morning, I tried to get in and BAM, I got right boot of fellowship.

I agree with Dan that this is the last bastion of free apostolic thinkers who are allowed and encouraged to discuss differing views without being impugned. I must really be "out there."
