Dumb question, dumb answer. UPCI is paying $100.00 ahead to come home.

That's a false accusation unless you have something to back it up. Your question is worded so as to suggest at least some of it was financially motivated. So what's your evidence?

Re: Talmadge French Heads Home to the UPC
You mean, like, will he sell more books in the UPCI or WPF?
Or is someone paying him off....?
Or what exactly are you meaning?
I have not know the UPCI to part with much money, no matter who you were.

In general, is the honorarium higher in a UPC camp meeting or conference, than in a WPF camp meeting or conference? Is he more likely to have his writings in a UPC catalog or WPF catalog? Are there more UPC camp meetings or conferences than WPF camp meetings or conferences? Does he have a better chance at a political position with perks in the UPC or in the WPF?

That's not a false accusation. On a bit of a high horse there Prax? People make decisions everyday based on what is best for them financially. I am sure preachers are immune from that though.

Re: Talmadge French Heads Home to the UPC
I left UPCI for several years then decided to come home again. I wasn't affected financially either way. Just felt this is where God would have me be. I still love the people in the other organization and fellowship with them from time to time.

What? Are you actually blaming this forum for that? You must be joking. 
And what blood letting are you talking about? Is there some scandal being discussed? The man is simply returning to the UPCI--that's not exactly controversial. 
Last I checked, politica...I mean, organizational affiliations and related changes were public knowledge (for good reason).
