Call and ask them?
A court case in which we haven't attended, or are part of? So, we are just spectators who are hoping for the best to come out of it, or praying for the worst?

Brother Ben, You'll have to read the thread and click on the links and then make your own judgements.
I will say that "others" who read about this court case and learn of this UPC minister's view on fornication will think that the views of this one minister reflect the views of the entire organization. The organization will be painted with a broad brush whether it is true or not UNLESS the leaders address this. It's the way things work. If this had been a court case involving a Southern Baptist minister, many folks would reason such as well, ie: that since this Baptist minister believes wearing a bikini is fornication then all Baptist ministers must believe that also and therefore a spouse wearing a bikini in public is grounds for divorce and remarriage.
