Obviously, there is more that I love about my church than hate, else'n I'd take your advice and just get out (and why do I get the impression that is what you would like me to do???)
Not at all sister, not at all
I'm sure if I had started out at one of the more conservative UPC churches, I WOULD HAVE "gotten out" a long time ago!!
You do seem to be very touchy on the subject of standards. I have a question for you. Can you accept me if I don't adhere to your holiness standards?
Yes ma'am I can
Here's my thing. I promise not to make fun of the way you dress if you promise not to make fun of the way I dress. 'K?

Not touchy on the subject itself , just touchy about people who judge it,
Your last line sums up the way I feel.
Like I have said, My pastor teaches that how you live for God is between you and God. Our job is to get people in the church, God will do the rest.

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter
