In a forum if someone disagrees with your POV (Witness Lee's POV being repeated by you) then they will openly oppose it.

In this particular forum they can "express their views freely" but should not naively expect to do so without any antagonism.
The issue is not whether one is no longer meeting in the local churches or currently meeting in the local churches, but being able to receive and discuss varying point of view.
On this forum, I've seen many posters come and go in large part to an inability to recieve opposing point of view.
