Can we focus here? Can we try to answer this question, please? This gets at the root of it. If we can learn from the answer(s) to this question we can be rescued from rehashing and reliving old wounds and offenses and go forward. I think that's what everyone here really wants, right?

Dancing, check out the quotes in post #208. "Spirit of non-cooperation" is quite an understatement when we look at the attitudes Witness Lee expressed toward other groups.

Maybe it's just that simple? That the spirit of non-cooperation in the Recovery came from the uncooperative leader at the top, whose legacy it is now "indebted to".
