Compliance in action and not in heart doesn't make for peace of mind.

No, I was not being left alone.

I was/am sick of the threats from a few kooks who mistakenly think I hate the org because I was pro-resolution.

You are right, I am in total compliance.

It won't gain me any peace, other than the knowledge that I am not in the minority any longer.

CS, I have no problem with hardcore conservatism. None at all. I was raised in it. I live it for the most part. I just think a few of those men would love to throw as many libs out as possible.

I don't mean to be offensive and insulting. I don't mean to paint with a broad brush, because the overwhelming majority of conservatives wouldn't do it. But I KNOW there is a group who absolutely would.

And never blink.

No, I don't think any such thing my brother.

I just think some things are not nearly as simple as some would make them out to be.

And I'm a pretty black and white guy, an absolutist. That gets me in trouble quite often.

No need to apologize, just recognize.

Leaving ... as you stated in your original question is in it's gerrand form ... but you and I knew that already

BTW, most of us who read this forum know that Phil is independent.
Sorry for the mistake I thought that Brother Jones was speaking of going from one organization to another, meaning UPCI to something that was left of the UPCI standards. I never said he left the UPCI, I did ask him why was he LEAVING the UPCI and joining a more liberal organization. That is why I answered you in the manner that I did. Since we are making sure of what people are up to, may I ask is that Church you go to in Houston is it a Trinitarian Church?

I will simply say that I desire a covering and due to a mistake I made as a 20 year old single young man while a member of the UPCI, the UPCI can no longer provide me that covering.

I am considering the Apostolic Christian Network...

Ok, sorry for the mistake my Brother.

I am not tryin to paint every conservative as a tyrant. there's some really good men of God out here . these are isolated incidents but there have been a few that are so outrageous that it's beyond imagination.

Years ago we had one that use to make the girls wear Brown bags over their heads and sit on the back row if the got caught wearing makeup

Thanks for clarifying, Thad.... Benicasa...you have some apologizing to do as you attempted to besmirch Thad's name....
