That's exactly how I intended for people to take it; at face value. Y'all are grown enough to determine what "pentecostal" means for yourselves.

THe only way to determine the true answer to your question is to poll each member independently and find out where they stand. THen, the majority rules.

HOw else can you quantify a question like this?

I asked the question because someone else made the statement.

Understood.

I think this is one of those things that is in the eye of the beholder.

To many on this forum, it probably is an ex-Pentecostal forum. How can you change someone's perception.

I will readily admit that it seems that there are not as many ultra cons posting these days to balance it out, but there are still a few!

If we go by the poll, there are 12 lib/mods to 1 ultracon. There is no balance!

Au contraire, Sis!

The poll asks who thinks the forum is ex-Pentecostal, not who's conservative and who is liberal!

I think Rico pretty clearly stated that in his opening post.....
