This new "rule" on facial hair on the Platform at GC represents an initial attempt at removing the bullet and starting a healing process.

I say "kudos!" to Hazelwood and the men on the committee that have real foresight and an obvious yearning for true Apostolic revival.

The majority who left are independent today with the exception of those yet in the AMF.
However ths cause was just and Bibilcal that to me is what the WPF is lacking a strong rallying cause.

That is interesting to know. I had not heard that part of it.

So 250 men thought the UPCI was overhanded or just sympathized with the 10 men that had it happen to them? I am not being facetious, I just know how sometimes these things can happen?

When you start throwing honorable men out without due process and take them to court to try to take their buildings it will cause a stir and it did.
