Don Rutledge recorded that. He was there with others when an FTTT trainer announced that. The trainer was so proud that he could walk into Lee's apartment and have fellowship with the "fourth person of the trinity."


Imagine that!

The trainer was obviously expressing a common spirit that exists in the LC. At least it did when I was in.

Lee would have been nothing without all his admiring followers. We lifted him up into thinking he was God's specially used man on the earth. We did that. We did that by elevating Lee beyond just being a mortal flawed human being.

Ironically, perhaps, we created our own personality cult ... Lee didn't discourage it.

And that brings us back to the OP.
