I don't know how much Christian groups besides the LC have emphasized this, but something tells me that even some of the positive things that Lee emphasized may have been overemphasized or perhaps discussed in an abnormal way. Just because a certain truth is found in the Bible doesn't mean that it automatically deserves an undue emphasis. Especially in regards to what WL taught about eating Christ, I find that a lot of it might have been intended for shock value, rather than because it represented truth found in the Bible.
