I visited that website a while back and I noticed that part of the online version of the training involves participation in a trainee discussion forum. Does that mean that trainees get to engage in genuine discussion and debate with each other? I could sign up and see how long it takes me to get kicked out...

I took a couple of the online courses and there were some non-LC participants. Once when I was waxing elegant over how I recovered my first love for Jesus I the LC one of the moderators asked that I take that discussion to private communications. Another time I worked really hard to organize some things into a table, but was told that it was distracting and not to do this. Another time there was a fellow from Canada taking the course who was not in the LC and was planning on visiting the church in Miami during Christmas vacation and kiddingly asked "if the brothers would be wearing flip-flops and shorts". My flippant answer was "even in shorts they will be wearing white shirts and narrow black ties." I was not asked to remove the comment.
