Organizations are not local churches with unscrupulous pastors trying to proselyte.
That parallel doesn't work.
I think a preacher ought to be free to join whatever organization he wants to join.
Why be so territorial and defensive and vindictive?

Agreed, it's not like a local church, but the UPC has to protect it's best intrest. If there's an outside or inside influence encouraging ministers to leave and join another organization, it'll hurt the UPC financially and number wise.
For that matter they have a right to try to block whoever it is.
