Before I left, it seemed like there was was an ever-increasing disregard for current members who were struggling or who might be considering leaving. Even just in general, the LC didn't give any thought to making the environment the type of place that people would want to be part of.
It is the lack of humility why there will not be repentance, reconciliation, or reform. I know it will be refuted, but the fruit of deputy authority doctrine is pride.
The LC is fully rejecting any culpability why members leave. It's completely owned by those who leave. It's usually labeled by any number of adjectives as the cause why brothers or sisters leave.
The LC attitude is that of a math formula. Just plug yourself into the ministry and the ministry will take care of you.
