I'm jumping into a conversation and may mess up the context, but as I understand the "de-webbing" practice, it is to reject those teachings of WL which are not healthy, and hold onto those which match the Bible.

Some former members who did not properly "de-web" the good from the worthless (see Heb 5.14) have sadly discarded their faith also as they left the LC's. This is most unfortunate. This forum serves as an aid to expose all the dangers of WL's teachings without discarding what healthy things we have received from the Lord. Sometimes this is difficult, especially for ones like me who had very little Bible foundation before entering the Recovery.
