I am not suggesting that retail stores or Apostolic Churches be limited. I am only suggesting that particular labels should be spread out instead of creating potential conflicts in relatively small areas given the great need in other areas.

i'm not suggesting that there can't be "other" Apostolic churches.... I'm asking why can't they're be a 2nd UPC church.... why should the 2nd man have to ponder starting his church with an "independant" non-UPC church name to avoid stepping on the 1st pastor's toes.... both theoretically preach the same message; why is a "territorial" spirit at a district level allowed to hinder/stop others from reaping in the same harvest field? if they are both UPC, the concern of "sheep-stealing" would be addressed by the district anyhow....
