This is probably critical, because the group operates and gains power by separation, antagonism, and isolation. It is "Us" (pure and undefiled religion, the Body, the recovery, the local church) versus "Them" (Babylon Christianity, the World). As long as you positively reinforce the desire to find and know and serve God, you'll have the lifeline to speak reason into their thoughtlessness. Eventually the strongholds will break.

As long as you don't get labeled "negative", you will have access to her. And with access will come opportunity to respectfully point out that in the Bible, pure and undefiled religion consists of more than sitting interminably in meetings reviewing material from one publisher.
