Could anyone tell me why their was no flags on the platform floor at the IA ? Its possible that my eyes failed me but I did not see them. I find this strange seeing how COGOP has spent so much money on legal fee's to keep the banner of the CHURCH OF GOD.

I did not know I was aggravated. But if that is the way you take it ok.
Its just a simple question. After all the hooplah about a Flag I thought it was odd.
Personally I dont care if its given to the TCOG and we have the universal christian flag.

Are you aggravated that they didn't have any ferns on the stage this year too?

Theory: Purely speculative -- Desiring to be truly international, they didn't put up the church flag because to do so, correctly, requires display of the American flag. In a setting where they were really trying to make this an international assembly instead of an American one, they chose to forego the whole thing.

Deleted as well. Didn't want anyone to take my post the wrong way.
Honestly - I was sitting so far in the back I didn't even
think about looking for them & wouldn't have even
thought about it if someone else hadn't mentioned it.
I was enjoying the services so much I didn't pay attention
to a lot of the finer details.

9th theory - Deleted. Because that was just wrong. Funny, but wrong.

It appeared to me that they took a Minimalist (sp) approach to the whole stage set decoration. In years past they had these huge custom banners and both hard and soft decorations on the stage.
Didn't the "hoopla" over the flag take place over 10 years ago.
No they do not hate the flag. Just not as prominent as it once was.

Yes, the stage was much more professional and cleaner looking. I never even noticed there were no flags of any sort present on stage.
Let the wild rumpus start!

I don't think so (or at least that wasn't the intent of
my jesting). I do still uphold it as a sacred banner.
(I no longer have a flag sticker on my car though.
Heard that message about the guy that traded cars &
forgot to pull the sticker off & it ended up being parked
in front of the bar & was afraid I would forget to take
it off next time I traded cars!)
On the same regards - neither do I worship it
(as I worship God alone). I value it's rich heritage &
what it represents - but have my doubts as to seeing
anyone waiving one when we get to heaven.
