Is the pot at the boil?

IDon'tKnow · 04-22-2009, 06:44 PM

It is my basic understanding of the LC history that most of the growth occurred back in the 60's, 70's and currently any truly productive gospel work now would be occurring in places where the LC's are less well established. Like say Central america (not certain whether or not there is truly growth there or just spin)) and Russia.

So then what I would like to ask is. Has the pot reached boiling point? Which is to say back in the 60s, 70s would it be fair to say that the temperature of the water was quite pleasant but over time it was brought slowly to the boil with most failing to realise what happened, whereas now seeing as how the water is already boiling it is extremely hard to get new ones as they can sense the heat (I know this unfortunately would seem to reflect badly upon me). Furthermore could the same situation be said to be true for newer climes, I.E. when the LC comes to newer areas because they aren't so well established the temperature isn't quite so hot.

Very likely the case.
