Simplistic, mechanical, robotic, scientific ... goes back to that "perfecting training" and Lee's scientific analysis of Romans 8 about "flipping the switch" and "turning on" your spirit. It was all some get-spiritual-quick-scheme unfolding before our eyes.
But where was love? Where are relationships with God or man? Where is faith? To be blunt, it really all was about the volume. Louder meant more spirit. Louder meant more "amens."

I remember one brother, whom I thought was spiritual, stand and gave a little demonstration. He said to walk by the spirit, is to say "Oh Lord Jesus" as he took 3 steps. Huh? So simple an unbelieving caveman could replicate this.
