Foolish mortals, have ye no fear THE living god???!! Look at the early old testament books of Waydale and I and II Greasespot and tremble!! Once unleased, THE noun rose up into godhood and took possession of many innocent minds who babbled on for thousands of posts in adoration of THE. Beware lest thou arouse THE again from the lower bowels of stupor hell of ten thousand half empty Guinness kegs to belch forth across this planet urinating great truths upon the unwashed masses in golden tinkling delights. Are you prepared to once again face that monster........... ??? Consider thy ways and repent before it is too late. DISCLAIMER: By the way, although Guinness appreciates the great increase in sales they had during this period, THE still owes them $27,342,591.03 plus tax and the last check bounced. Guiness Limited ESQ. has initiated garnishment proceedures against THE Mountain in hopes of getting some recompence against their claim. Also they hope to find at least some of their missing kegs.

For a period of time.....I spent alot of time reading the gospels and pondering the life of Jesus Christ. The Pharisees, the religious hierarchy, were surreptitiously engaged in ensnaring him and, ultimately, signing his "death warrant." Jesus addressed their deception and hypocrisy and traditions of men in supreme "undressing and unmasking" terms! To me, the corps program was wierwille's unmasking of motives.......where "submission and discipline" were the underpinnings of three years in the guise of "leadership training." The academic/study side was pfal rehash.....and the work side was a joke. The program was an all-out assault on individual liberty and dignity. And, the classic bait-n-switch reared its ugly head as corps coordinators implied that we owed our lives to this ministry with a lifetime of service. In other words, you signed up to serve twi.....period! Wierwille's twi was aligned with Phariseeism........straight up!

skyrider, You saw things a lot more clearly than I ever did. All I knew was that I was more and more miserable and then I was happy when I left.

RE: "Way back then.....twigs were short, succinct, and spot-on! " Not to be "negative," but that depended on who was running the fellowship. I also caution against saying they were "spot-on". Spot on with what? I guess I'm picky picky picky... Cheers.
