I think this has been a kind of trend in the LRC over the years, that it has come to attract people who enjoy influencing, even manipulating, other people -- especially younger people -- just a tiny little bit too much. Maybe the word "interloper" could be used to describe this?
Just Google "Gene Gruhler" and it is one of the first links. It is from an anti-Christian web site.

If Christians engage in overtly coercive and manipulative actions against their targets, the so-called "new ones", it really is kind of an anti-testimony. Instead of letting the love of God shine forth.
