If anyone feels negatively about an organization, they should keep it to themselves, especially if they have the same baptism of like precious faith. I realize that there are people who put labels on others, such as 'liberal' or 'conservative' and that in itself is fine, we can discuss those issues w/out bashing a specific church. When bashing becomes part of a forum, then it is hard for me to respect his/her views. If we are all Apostolics, then we are all related as spiritual brothers and sisters, and I suppose that this is something that even I myself should remember.

Bro. Eastman .....
There's always been UPC bashing on these forums. The original intent and purpose of FCF was to give UPCers and others the opportunity to discuss their issues and to discuss what is going on in the UPC. It wasn't the intent to "bash" the UPC but to allow open and free discussion about issues in the UPC and Oneness apostolic movement without fear of reprisal.
You my brother .... have the opportunity and freedom here to speak up and
affirm the UPC .... and to emphasize the positive.
I don't see that much UPC bashing really.
