I was going to post that you must have worn out your Thesaurus composing your apology post but I see Uboat77 already pointed that out in the post above.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
It is with great gravitas that I proffer geniune, sincere and calamitous apologies with supplication. In the most truest sense I meant no ill will to any. The intent of my posts was not marginalize, impugn nor mock. I mistakenly thought that this forum welcomed a multiplicity of views and wished to contribute to the cacophony of melodious voices.
No doubt my position as a neophyte within the established community and the forcefulness of my opinions contributed to the dearth of receptivity encountered of the same. Truly, no offense was intended towards any of the fine denizens which are amalgamated here.
I shall suffer my punishment with diginity and grace with hopes of a brighter and less ignominious convivial reception of my conservative Pentecostal Apostolic views in relation to the panorama of cerebral thought evidenced here.
Kinder and gentle,

Joseph Howell....I think he was from Florida. He taught at JCM He was very intellectual theologically, Historically, and very well versed in what I call "post-graduate" English.
To those who assume I use a thesaurous...Get reall! I only use them when I am writing books and then generally to check spelling as many times words I want to use cannot be found in modern dictionaries.
Concerning those who think my apology insincere. Since we live in the United States and have the ability to exercise certain freedoms, I appreciate your right in exercising yours, however wrong you have chosen to be.
To those who do not like the length nor words chosen for an apology. The following should suffice your lack of education, intellectual laziness or the fact that you cannot understand written comments without pictures.
