Without getting into "his story" does anybody know the answer to the simple question of where does he go to church now?

"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"

He doesn't go anywhere. Well, except work and a couple of heavy metal dive bars. I am deep in the know, I know him intimately seeing how he is me. Never was real good at the whole anonymity thing. One of the fundamental basics of Christianity is honesty and truthfulness, yet most you folks hide behind pseudonyms, that is called a lie.
I find the Christian Ideal to be amazing. I find it's implementation lacking in extremis.
Any more questions? Not in a real answering mood. Suffice it to say I have re-embraced my original agnosticism. I foreslid.

Kind regards to all of you...

Hey John, ya kinda fell of the radar for a bit. I haven't been on GNC for a long time, other than the occasional test visit because either A) nothing was happening or B) the site was down or non responsive. Now I see it has completely changed with a guy who looks an awful lot like Bob Newhart in charge,
Bring 'em on babes, I got a catcher's mitt and I excel at baseball!
