You may have been speaking about an organization, but guess what? People with FEELINGS make up the UPCI...
I don't know why I bother...

Don't expect to soar with eagles when you hang with chickens.

I do NOT hang with chickens! 
Perhaps you are playing me and are simply getting the responses you want, but I will play along and say this...
I have been around forums since the FCF days and know where a lot of folks stand on certain issues...Renda, Sherri, CC1 to name a few.
We do not see eye to eye on these points, and probably never will, but they NEVER resort to the posting that you have. I respect them enough to not put them in hell for their views (as I that were my right), and likewise, they don't call me names or tell me I'm in bondage for mine.
It's called respect!
You don't know me from Adam's house cat and probably don't care to, and that is fine. But a little respect goes a way.
As I posted yesterday...why do I bother?

Re: Bombshell- Considering going back to the UPC
Name dropping doesn't intimidate me. I have charter status with FCF. Doesn't mean squat. You're the one who gets all emotional, gets a few sympathy posts and the issue is avoided.
No reasonable person with knowledge of the UPCI will agree the organization is a principled group. They won't tell the truth about their numbers. You are not the fastest growing oneness organization if your the members numbers have remained leveled and decreased. Global is the fastest growing organizations.
There is not freedom legalism is substituted for grace.
I guess to some people, bovine excrement tastes like steak.

Some folks just hate the Church. That is a fact.

Re: Bombshell- Considering going back to the UPC
Judging by some of the responses, I believe people may have struggled through literature classes in high school. For a group of people who can make people believe the Bible says some crazy stuff, they should appreciate the clarity of their positions. You can tell the people who get it and those who don't.

Re: Bombshell- Considering going back to the UPC
I've got a book in my library by the author of Pulp Fiction how to write effectively and creatively. Works well so far.
