There are so many things that leaders could change in the LC help people view it as an average Christian group rather than a cultic one. Do they make these changes? Nope. Instead, they choose to sue for their reputation (which hasn't worked out too well for them). Consider this: while they were suing Harvest House to supposedly improve their reputation, they introduced their latest cultic practice, the One Publication. It seems pretty clear that they have no interest in making any changes . Everything has to be on their own terms.

The lawsuit was cultic in and of itself. They only proved that they are a cult.
