And yet, your narrative above indicates you never understood what the local churches teach and probably spent little time with them. It resembles the internet version of a drive by shooting.

Fair enough so maybe idol worship is pushing it. But that being said, there are plenty of anecdotes about how Witness Lee is considered more holy than he really should be. I just would prefer not to rehash those discussions on this thread. Also I would recommend you just tell me outright that my accusation wasn't true instead of trying to be sneaky about me not truly understanding the Local Churches or me not having a solid argument. This is the place for introduction and further inquiry, not having philosophical or theological arguments as Nell implied. I don't mind being told the truth about the Local Church (in fact I welcome it since I obviously don't know as much as I should) but I don't appreciate such things being said in a snarky and downputting way, especially considering this whole forum is about learning more about Witness Lee and the Local Church.
