No apology needed. I like to hear both sides. Last time I was here I don't remember the LC Apologists being out in force. It can't help but bring to mind something I recently learned -- the LC has a separate fund for cyber/online defense. Whatja know! 😉😄

Anyway, it's not just some or everyone reading from the morning revival. It's this apparent fear or inability to say anything about ones faith without quoting WL. Over 20 years after his death, he is still front and center for this church. It was and is built around his personality.

The definition of cult is:
a misplaced or excessive admiration for a particular person or thing.
"a cult of personality surrounding the leaders"

The LC is real close to being a cult by the definition of Merriam Webster.
