I'll start by reiterating what I said in post #73, Max's confrontation with Philip most likely expedited Max's dismissal. No matter how old your children are, you will take exception to anyone touching your children. From the context of a father's love for his son, I believe Witness Lee took exception to Max confronting his son Philip.
As far as Philip Lee being an issue in the late 70's, I think it is all relative. I was in Anaheim 76-79. I know a sister who served at Living Stream after the Ball Road building was completed. Philip Lee was a non-issue to her. Conversely I know a brother who withdrew from the Church in Anaheim during the building project. Philip's lack of character and role with the ministry was an issue.
