Now you know why we were advised to not read Spiritual Authority. That alone is why I read all three volumes.

After reading I understood his points about deputy authority, but couldn't quite get behind them, or it.

Strikes me as funny that we were told not to read SA, and yet deputy authority was all over in the LC. Maybe that's why we were discouraged, cuz we'd catch on to what was going on around us, and disagree with it.

The reason, howbeit, that they gave for not reading it was, possible demon possession, not deputy authority.

Now I wonder if deputy authority isn't demon possession.
