An current point would be what happened with Ontario, Califronia and subsequently in Vista, California.
Problem here is the bent teaching of deputy authority. Co-workers see themselves as deputy authority and the elders as delegated authority. (As I pointed out in my previous post there are instances when the co-workers and elders are the same.)
Because of the teaching elders allow themselves and their localities to be run over roughshod as they do not want to break their distorted view of what it is to be one and they do not want to suffer loss in being slandered as "in rebellion" for protecting the flock in the locality for which they bear responsibility for.
