As for now I'm having difficulties to avoid this problem that granny is going to arrive home from the US this August. She will force me to send to the FTTMA otherwise persecution is inevitably certain.
Since what are these so-called Christians on Campus, a student religious organization, be a bias-free, inclusive Christian club; encompassing students from various denominational persuasions that at the end of their graduation they are being instilled in their minds to be trained at the FTT? Reprogramming is the end result with its localism drug intake. Isn't that sheep stealing? Oh boy I bet the LC would reply, then, "Are those your sheep?"

LSM has long used every one of their gatherings to promote the FTT. The pressures are not just on the young people, but upon their families too. Decades ago we would sing "
Home, home, in the church, here we have ended our search ".
In the late 80's, during that horrible movement called the "New Way," Lee and Company successfully orchestrated a paradigm shift. Our destination was changed from the church to the ministry, a serious paradigm shift. Being a functioning member of some LC was no longer adequate, we needed "training," or should I say an entire
system of ministry indoctrination, which is really a system of error. Training promotionals went thru the roof. Everybody had to get on board, or you would be told to leave, literally. Even some families have pressured their own to attend, similar to the Mormons.
A few regions like the Midwest, Brazil, NYC, etc. being so large were allowed to continue as a kind of LSM-Lite. We were not "absolute" for the ministry, but sufficiently on board to get a pass. This all changed when Benson Phillips took over and decided to quarantine Brazil and the Midwest.
