They can't accept that because of the view that the LC holds the ministry that will "end the age" and has "unlocked the Bible". I have personally seen church kids who were manipulated by people in the LC, such that situations came up where the parents should have stood up for their children and set their foots down. Instead, they valued a good standing in the LC, over taking care of their doing what was right for the needs of their children.
As one raised in the local churches, many of other church kids from my generation raised in the local churches, I would estimate 90%+ meet in non-LSM Christianity while younger generations still do.
