It may be loyalty is considered unconditional. For an elder, to have their loyalty to LSM brought under scrutiny is non-negotiable.

There is an inherent conflict of interest at play in the LC.
When Jesus was questioned about which commandment is the greatest, his answer was two-fold. He said " You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
I don't see anything there about loyalty to the ministry or loyalty to the blendeds. Why must love be confined to what the blendeds want? It's really sad.
