So pardon me for standing up for facts or the lack thereof... (no... dont't really pardon me I am being completely sarcastic)

In my opinion, (and I admit I could be wrong because it's not based on facts) I think you are carrying too much around in your suitcase... you need to throw some of it out once and for all.
The question remains as to why the church chose to use an AG building over a UPC building. This is an open forum, so we speculate! I speculated that it was human nature to protect one's flock.

We speculate about the UPCI General Conference, women's conferences, men's Conference, liberal conferences, conservative conferences, WWPF, famous preachers, infamous preachers, bald preachers, fat preachers, fat saints, rich saints, poor saints, ugly saints, etc.

I think you get the picture!

Re: UPC or Preacher Bashing!!!!!!!!

Thank you CS for answering my question. I respect you and have always enjoyed your posts. I truly was troubled by the response last night to that thread before I left it. (Most of the time I check in on the forum and just go my happy way without another thought.) I felt it was an over reaction to what was said. I try very hard to keep my attitudes pure and right before God, and do not in anyway want to hurt the ministry of any church.

Sister, for all the beating that we take sometimes around here, most preachers have enough of a shepherd's heart that they keep quiet about saints that have done them wrong and wounded them.

We just don't like to talk about it.

I knew I stated it wrong after I posted it! I was using the word, "bashing" too much, so I tried to come up with a different way of saying it.

I guess it came back to bite me!

I was wrong for using the term "name-calling" instead of "bashing". Please accept my apology!

Name calling seems more personal, IMO. Bashing seems to be pointed more to issues. I think there is a difference.
