The issue remains, but the way you deal with it might differ slightly.
For example, you wouldn't have to worry about hurting the father's feelings or status by saying certain things you might not say otherwise.
Some people, it seems to me, talk about Witness Lee as if he were still alive and they still have to kiss up to him. He's gone to his reward and now it's time to deal, frankly and honestly, with the mess he left behind.
I just don't understand Witness Lee's rep being someone's top priority. History is going to decide about him anyway. All the propaganda of the Exclusive Brethren doesn't change the way history has judged Darby, and all the propaganda of LSM or anyone on this board isn't going change the way Lee will be judged.
Lee's gone. We can't help him. What's left is the people alive with us today who we might be able to help by ministering to them on this board with a little more discernment than just trying to defend or dismiss Lee in order to win an argument.
