Default Re: Double Standards

How about the cloudy history of silencing dissent? Who was the guy who posted a bunch of "bad things" on the internet and then passed away...whereupon the LC somehow got control of the website and was able to take it down? It must have been in the late 90's to early 2000's...I remember even as a kid that kind of raised concerns.

Moran. I remember it. Had some original stuff on there. Somebody must have made screen shots or cached a copy of the website. Anybody know where to find that stuff?

Thanks Unsure, that was it. But, remember something like some notes scribbled by WL for a talk that showed WL asking why he was being treated badly, does that ring a bell with anyone?

Another double standard: why is it that Lee could teach that Satan indwells the body of the believer yet also teach that man becomes God in life and nature? How is it that man can become God in life and nature, yet also have Satan indwelling the body simultaneously? Is that not blasphemy? Don't forget that the phrase "god-man" is applied to LCers in the present tense.

Ridiculous? Yes!

Blasphemy? Not really. It doesn't impugn the character of God, but makes ridiculous claims about man. Both parts — Satan indwelling man and man becoming god.

Why is it that those in the LC still call themselves "the Lord's recovery"? In saying that they've reached the high peak of the divine revelation, that implies there's nothing more to "recover", so the name is meaningless (not to say it had meaning to begin with).

I have it scanned into digital format. It's a mess but it's pretty much all there.
