I heard John was asked by TC in their last meeting some question about the local ground, and TC was not pleased with the answer John gave. John once wrote that there is "more justification in the New Testament for head covering than for the local ground." That kind of statement does not go over big with the old entrenched leadership, whether in Anaheim or in Cleveland.

Stealing money and the young people! This kind of view demonstrates the real thinking of the Anaheim Politburo and the Cleveland version thereof. They own the givers of the support and the recipients and all the people in the LC system. It is their property. And if you disagree with them you have to get off their property - go your own way empty handed like a pauper. It's a ruthless and cold way of doing things. Even in secular work people get severance pay and notice and time to transition smoothly if possible.
I feel bad for John and his family and hope he finds a place to apply his talents where he will be appreciated and supported like Phil Comfort was able to do.
