Or maybe Ted Kennedy or Chavez who get Catholics funerals because at the last minute they *repented* and asked for the sacraments after a lifetime of murder and destroying this country with their pro-abortion, pro-homosexual marriage; socialistic politics?

It's time to get over your ex husband.

Okaaayyyy.....

What ex-husband?

And just what would that have to do with the hypocrisy exhibited by Catholics anyway?

UCG

In addition to Greetings_Puny_Humans posts on this thread -- look for all of them -- here is a decent additional United Church of God backgrounder posted Sunday:

The True Church: One Organization, or Many? [Armstrong splinter group -- UCG -- sized up]

This piece makes this mention: "How telling it is that more thousands by far left the WCG to join the United Church of God than did those who entered all the rest of the splinters and slivers combined! Staying too long in Worldwide took a terrible toll on these thousands who seemed not to know any toll was even exacted upon them..."

WCG = Worldwide Church of God, which was run by self-appointed "apostle" Herbert W. Armstrong.

Post-Armstrong's death, at least half of this group changed their doctrines and went Christian mainstream.

They are now umbrella'd under a new name: Grace Communion Intl...Here was a post of that process: lobal Lessons From the Worldwide Church of God [Grace Communion Intl traces u-turn as sect]
