Twi's corps program expanded their reach of 'extended training' to field corps and corps grads when, after the so-called "fog years" (1986-1989).....weekly corps meetings via phone hookup to hq. In the 1990s, martindale used these phone hookups liberally to confront issues, slander corps who had exited, 'teach and tweak' scriptures, and pontificate his greatness. EACH week, EVERY time.....when I phoned hq and waited patiently, either Joe C0ulter or a/v guy would ask the SAME three questions: 1) How many corps are in attendance? 2) And, only corps are present? 3) And, you're NOT recording is that correct? As corps, branch/limb coordinators....those of us who initiated this phone call to hq ALWAYS were asked these questions. Of course, I realized this same line of questioning in 1991.....I couldn't help but ponder WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS? So.....what if *I DID RECORD* a corps meeting to show others some of the vile confrontations that martindale dished out to corps? Did twi leaders so distrust the corps that these same questions NEEDED repeated every corps hook-up? Would twi come after me and contest this 'recorded evidence' in a court of law be thrown out? Would twi leverage their authoritarian power against my disobedience (recording a meeting)? All of this seems surreal now as the martindale thunder was ousted and silenced in 2000. If twi continued this practice into the 2000s, I have no idea. I was long gone. <_<

I would call PFAL garbage. A number of posters here have shown that the teachings are designed to encourage reduced critical thinking skills. By reading VPW's works, you can be made stupider. VPW may have plagiarized much, but he arranged it as a trap. In that way he was an author.

Sorry I am not glong to give you a pass for calling me a coward when you are too lazy and deluded to get to know me or my story. I focused on God and truth. you on the other hand are an armchair quarterback hyping your self up on a sick man's stolen work, all while being too cowardly to look behind the curtain at the fruit as Jesus instructed us. What you accuse others of oozes out of your post like an open sore. you are not in the way and didn't have to live the Word with the people teaching it like I did. I damn well know the difference between someone living and teaching God's Word and someone who is trying to teach what they are not living. So why don't you with all your .... accusations crawl on back out of here where you came from and kiss 100% of my @$$ on the way out. Or be a man and apologize. And stop lying about all the many way leadership you have confronted and backed down with them running away with their tail tucked. None of the people named here has ever been seen by anyone responding to Joe believer confronting them in this fashion. I mean I could believe you talked harshly to your lady twig coordinator and made her cry based on your post but certainly not anyone we post about around here. If we would have mastered his books. idiot we pored over those hours a day for years. More than you have even dreamed about. Rosie has spent the last decade plus dumbing the Way down to the collaterals. And it is worse now than ever before. I have a lot of tolerance for people but about zero for seagulls who want to fly by crap on things and then fly off. And Mike with visions of Jesus returning holding an orange piffle book? I mean someone who can elevate vps book above the words of the Father like that is not even remotely close to being sound of mind. Closer to tinfoil hats and alien abductions. Tune in to the revelation channel where you can live for the devil and speak for God all at the same time God is not mocked what a man sows he reaps.

We may never know (unless someone knew him right when he arrived on-grounds or before) if lcm was into that before he lived on-grounds. We DO know that he adapted everything vpw said as descending from God Almighty-which resulted eventually in his ousting, court case, and de facto breakdown. Anyone who takes vpw's words as some sort of godly utterance is setting himself up for a sad life.

What are these different techniques? Maybe you could select one item from THIS old thread and demonstrate how your techniques are applied.

actually that's hilarious now 1) How many corps are in attendance? just me 2) And, only corps are present? just me 3) And, you're NOT recording is that correct? hang on, let me ask me
