I have found it nearly impossible to get an Ultra-Con to communicate as if we are all on equal spiritual footing. (Sis. Alvear and a few others are the exception) They simply feel that they are spiritually superior.

Jimmy Yohe himself couldn't have prevented the natural separation of the differing segments of the Apostolic faith. It appears that the dream has almost died!
I agree with this somewhat. People being people and everyone thinking they are right.
