Many See the UPC just as people saw the titanic. They said it could not go down. When it was reported that they would sink people went right on doing what they were doing, saying it can't sink. the first life boats left half full. People keep on dancing to the music and ignoring the warning.
Only when it was too late did they believe.
The same thingis happening in the UPC. She is on her way down. People are daincing to the music form WEC and ignore the warning cries.

Oh brother!!!
You seem like a person at a railroad crossing gleaming about a wreck that could happen because you did something to the track!!!
I hate to tell you this, but there are also reports of record numbers of preachers joining the UPCI since GC.
I personally believe the UPCI will not only survive, but thrive!!
Assessing the impact of all the ones leaving vs. the ones coming in isn't as simple as just counting noses in each line.
Losing a Johnny Godair with his influence and credibility cannot be replaced by just getting another preacher licensed.
Initially, the finances these men take with them will be felt in a major way.
But the long term impact of the absence of their voice and influence in the movement, and in the shaping of the next generation of young UPC preachers will have a huge impact, and one not easy to calculate right now.
When you lose the caliber of men that the UPC is going to lose, it is not a small thing.

Many people see those that are mad at the UPCI for allowing TV ads, as control freaks bent on tell God how to be saved.
