Can any WPF'rs explain:
 

From WWPF by-law:


I will also avoid having television, or other Hollywood or Hollywood-type productions and movies in my home or elsewhere. I will further refrain from engaging in any other such unacceptable programs or materials via radio, internet or any other present or future technology. I will limit my use of all forms of communication technology to that which is, educational, business, or otherwise wholesome and edifying.

Question: As this statement prohibits television in any form or fashion, why does it allow internet (barring unacceptable programs) to squeeze in under educational, business or otherwise wholesome and edifying? HMMMMMMM??? Are they saying a televison is more likely to destroy a person spiritually than the internet????????????????? It appears silly to have an internet site for your church but feel the need to form another organization because the UPC now allows advertising on television. Just looking for some principle here.

This question has been asked and answered for quite some time now. Don't expect to get a satisfactory answer.

The bigger question to me (not to say this isn't a completely valid and great question) is, why is their stance on TV, on the record, more weak than the official UPC stance?


AVOID???

Re: Can any WPF'rs explain:
 

The loophole is so big you could drive a semi through it. It's purposeful intent is to satisfy the clamoring voices of conservatism while allowing for future brethren to take their moderate stance.

I predict many of these churches will be on Television sooner than many UPCI. They also do not appear to have a provision to remove or revoke anyone who does minister on Television.

I may be wrong on the latter point, not having read through all the by-laws.

Re: Can any WPF'rs explain:
 

In that case, are WwPFers in violation with being on AFF? I guess AFF can be educational at times, but wholesome, edifying???
