Lee's group once lured me into thinking that I could be part of a special remnant which fulfilled God's master plan. But when I read Lee's thrashing it out with the Bible Answer Man over the substance of the Trinity, my conscience began to stir; something was wrong with this narrative. Why are we fighting with one another? When I heard the FTTA trainer tell us "don't waste your time" with the poor, the widows and orphans, I was further troubled. Why are we ignoring one another? When I read the Fermentation of the Present Rebellion, and saw Lee characterize the supposed "rebels" in terms that would make a sailor blush, I was bothered. Why are we judging one another?
So I left. I stopped being "special" and began to act like just another bozo on the bus. Just another sinner redeemed to God by faith in Jesus Christ.

Cognitive dissonance much?
