. . . once a group of elders gets control, there is no way for the Lord to reform them if they go off the reservation. Everyone must continue to submit to them, regardless. The only option is to leave town, which is silly.

While the average member of any particular assembly/group does not engage in the ongoing discussions about the doctrines and positions that cause the separation of meetings, behind the scenes there are arenas in which all of these differences are constantly being discussed in a mostly civil manner.
The exceptions are the groups that insist that only they are correct. The LC is just one of the latest in such small splinter groups. While some larger groups have been more closed than others, it is mostly small groups like the LC that truly keep to themselves and write all the others off. Like calling them all the daughters of Jezebel, or of the Whore of Babylon.
Or mooing cows. Sound Familiar anyone?
