That is a GREAT point!! Rather than making an attempt to unite with Christendom for the focused purpose of taking the gospel to the world, there is a continued attempt to show that they're "Set apart" from everyone else.
I left in UPC in 1993 and I keep hearing that "things are different now", that it's "not like it used to be." In fact, I've heard that a lot from Hoovie here on the Forum. But things like this just reinforce that nothing has changed at all. Just more of the same, "We have the truth, sucks for the rest of you sorry schmucks."
