Should we teach others to rebel against standards?

Attack mode? No. It's incredible how you try to spin the narrative to make yourself the victim every time. It's a continuous cycle with you:

1) You post a stupid statement, story, etc
2) Someone disagrees and calls you out on it
3) You claim you're just being multifaceted in your post or something similar
4) You complain you're being attacked.

Rinse. Repeat.

Riiiiiiight. Do you seriously expect anyone to believe that? I don't believe that you thought it would just pass on by without comment. This is a forum with a lot of current/former UPCI members. Gimme a break.

No, but the narrative insinuated he was. You did claim he allegedly is currently part of the UPCI, which you later apparently recanted by posting: "to me, UPCI, ALJC, COOLJC, PAW, ABCs & 123s, it makes no difference."

This is just stupid and I don't believe a word you're posting here. You didn't want to "slander him?" Stop lying. Take a moment and be honest for once. You didn't give me the name because you knew I would track this guy down and contact him to see if what you said is true about him. That's the real reason. You posted your pledge to send me a name, hoping I wouldn't respond to it. Then you soiled your garments when I did respond and asked for it.

You already posted the story and the pixelated screenshot. There's no slander. It's just an excuse.

Speaking of slander...I don't recall you having the same conflict when you took a post from AFF and put it on your FB timeline for your liberal friends to bash. So stop with that pathetic excuse. Man up, be honest and admit you just didn't want this guy knowing you were bashing him on AFF.

Sure you did.

Which we can't know for sure, because: "to me, UPCI, ALJC, COOLJC, PAW, ABCs & 123s, it makes no difference."



I wish Admin would remove your ability to edit posts.

When I first saw your post, it included this gem:

You're in such a frame of mind, this spirit has you in its grasp so strong you can't even begin to try to see my point...as you actually prove it in your politicized rantings.

And when I saw politicized. I mean you are attack dogging like Sean Hannity. You're not inquiring as a brother. You've misrepresented what was said and the intentions of what was said so badly that we've ended up way out here where nothing makes sense."

Why did you delete that first paragraph above?

"Repent, or you'll roast in a devil's hell as long as God will live"
The only thing I repent of is believing you have an ounce of honesty or integrity.

You know the saying, "the road to hell is paved with good intentions?" You should write a book, "Good Intentions Paved My Road To Hell."

Example A is your post. Maybe you did have good intentions, but you messed up by bashing someone you claim IS UPCI and was a minister for 30+ years. And you didn't post about the man once. It was more than once. You call him vulgar. Said he used vulgar words.

So while you may have intended to provide an example, your subsequent posts made it more about the "vulgar," UPCI minister.

Perhaps you should think next time before blasting someone and connecting them to an organization of which many here are either current or former members.
