Personally I see nothing offensive in the outline posts. When I was in denominations I was not offended by those statements either, because there was an element of truth in them. They are stock standard beliefs in the Recovery and reading material.
The far majority of material in the LSM outlines, 99%, is not about badmouthing denominations at all.

You like to interpret things literally, don't you? It makes me wonder why you didn't notice the omission of "deformed" or "degraded" on Christianity in the last point of the outlines. Literally, "Christianity" covers both religious and genuine Christianity, right?
And thank you for admitting 1% of the LSM outlines can be about badmouthing. That could be a good start for you. I am quite sure you are familiar with 1Cor 5:6 "...Do you not know that a little leaven (1%?) leavens the whole lump? "

Do you have some specific examples to share?
