Is that not the very spiritual arrogance the same accuses of UPC?

My sister and her husband are ministers in the UPC and my wife's brother is going to get his local license this year. My wife's family are pioneers in the UPC movement. It is the only org I know.
However, now that I am on the outside looking in, and not having to defend the UPC every single day of my life, it is a lot easier to admit to the problems that the UPC is facing.

The impression I get is that the main change you want to see in the UPC is that they either 1/ tolerate the preaching of PCI doctrine, or 2/ convert to a PCI denomination totally. (
not gonna happen, I'm pretty sure)
You seem to think the UPC's main "problem" is that they strongly advocate the so called PAJC/"3-step" doctrine.
Frankly, to most of us on this side,
that "problem" is really not a problem at all!
