I've never noticed that UCs have a corner on integrity.
UC's don't have a corner on integrity. I didn't sa that he is, only promoted the idea that it is a possibility.

Perhaps I should have used a more mild word like "liar."

You can't be a card carrying UPCI preacher without signing a promise to preach and teach that you wholeheartedly disapprove of women cutting their hair and wearing makeup.

Maybe he's hoping to win Sandra by showing her kindness?
Well, all righty then! We'll see what Sandra has to say when she gets back from Austin.

The fact that he signs an affirmation statement to obtain his UPC license allows us the luxury of assuming that he preaches and practices what he pledges to preach and practice.

Doesn't it?

Re: Another SPLIT from the UPCI???

Perhaps this says more about how some Pastors lead than anything else... not all of them carry sledgehammers and demolition tools to the pulpit.

Disappoving is just that, disapproving. It does not mean a hard and fast standard to judge others by, or, God forbid, condemn others by. It means we have this tradition...

I personally disapprove of consumming Sushi without Wassabi.

But, what if you, as a pastor, sign an oath to practice, preach and teach that you wholeheartedly disapprove of consuming Sushi withour Wassabi?

Would you not look a little goofy if you allowed a visiting psalmist to consume Sushi without Wassabi on your platform?

NO! Because I realize it is not all about ME.

The fact is - dress codes and wassabi are important secondary issues.
