These are the $64,000 (million in today's terms) questions. The problem is that they are so disjointed and broad that it is almost impossible to discuss them.
What does it cost to follow Jesus in a healthy way? Everything.
What didn't the LC members do...? A simplistic answer is "think for themselves."
Who is responsible? Depends on how you are looking at it. It goes from "only Lee and the leadership" to "everyone."
The problem with blaming everyone is that you then presume that everyone should know everything required to make the decision. That presumes that there is no need for anyone to be a teacher and help us along the way.
If you say only Lee and the leadership, then you presume that everyone else is stupid and cannot decide for themselves. You take the position that we not only need teachers, we need people with spiritual power of attorney to tell us everything and we do not even consider whether it might or might not be true.
Obviously, both are true and both are false. Depends on the specific question. Since this is a generic "who is at fault about everything," then it is impossible to answer.
Identify something discrete and we can work on it.
