Let's start with the spelling....
But I see from the other thread that you didn't come up with the spelling yourself.

I started a thread based on the info provided. I assumed he was referring to his church but thought that if this is the way he wants his church represented, we could go with his info. Maybe he had a reason for this.
I'm glad to have the thread renamed if he wants it changed.

I don't know who the "you" is that JohnH referred to in the above quote.

I'm not aware of stereotyping anything related to the Church of God in Christ Mennonite, so I don't think the accusation applies to me. I've asked a lot of questions to try to understand their positions and practices on a lot of things. If I've done anything beyond that I welcome that being pointed out.
