Re: I Love the UPCI

From what I understand of the originators of FCF, the forum began as a way to share thoughts, doubts, and diversity in the OP ranks not being fully allowed nor having the freedom to do so within their ranks, local church, or among friends they weren't sure they could trust.

Here we are, some years down the road, on AFF. Same concept. So, if we are honest, this Forum encourages anyone who cares to join to speak out freely against the ideas and teaching of any given establishment. Even though there are some that continue to blast and bash the UPC, coming across as whining, this forum is really set up for that.

This Forum, as a free and self-moderating voice, also gives Ferdinand the right to voice his opinion - "Put on your big boy pants."

Year after year, saga goes on - some blast and bash - some push back.

We are fortunate beheading, caning and murder are not allowed.

It's like PO said and that's what we all have enjoyed in the past, but what seems different these days are the ones that just keep trying to tell others what they mean or what they should mean.

We are a equal opportunity "speak your mind" forum!
