This really struck a chord with me. If you read through my testimony of my time in the LRC, you will find that this is, rephrased, one of the main reasons we left. My wife and I were having difficulties. And when the whole of the system is based on "know no man in the flesh" and "going to more meetings will fix everything" when it proves to be a pile of rotting wood, you get out. Since the open statements by the leadership in Irving (whether really the whole story or not is irrelevant) said they didn't want to hear about your marital problems, or troubles with your kids, or whatever, then you were on your own. It actually has proven fortunate that even if they would have counseled us that we believed otherwise and got out.
