Personally I do think that many in the LC system idolize Witness Lee. Not in the bow-down-and-worship-a-physical-idol-of-him sense of the word but in their hyper appreciation of him as the MOTA and other such grandiose descriptions. Even their question WWWLD before ousting Titus Chu is an indication of the grip he still has on them from the grave. Or Dan Towle worrying about how he would answer to Witness Lee in the next age. Or Ray Graver saying there are no more lampstands in the Midwest because they don't follow the Anaheim Politburo's interpretation of Witness Lee (two steps removed from the Bible so far). The list goes on and on. Not sure how the next generation will be about this kind of thing but I'm sure the FTT is indoctrinating them to continue the idolization.
