Protest? Revisionist history much? Oh yeah.....it's Mike! Nevermind! LOL! Skyrider is far more accurate and far less disinformed, Mike. Dictor paul was far too dumb, drunk, and distracted to do much other than serve his own perverted lusts. For me, it became more and more obvious from the first week I "entered" the corpse. By piffle'77, I was so wrapped up in my corpse assignment for the 2 weeks ,("Bless Patrol" Security for all the in-residence dorm "students") that I could have cared less what crap dic was putting out on that stage. As a matter of fact, I attended only 4 teaching sessions the entire time, all in the first week. They were so smarmy, schmaltzy, self-serving and vapid, that I preferred 18-20 hrs a day "doing my job" to sitting in a POS Winegarner/Rivenbark Production to blatantly assuage dic's uncontrolled malignant, paranoid narcissism, overtly kiss his moggie ass, and establish themselves as the truest purveyors of dic's "heart". I cared not one whit about all the bullshit excuses, phoney "revelations", and political shenanigans behind the scenes. I was having too much fun "on-the-field" moving da woid as a State WOW Coordinator in MI, to give a crap about all that BS and palace intrigue. Frankly, I was so glad to NOT be at HQ that I was just not really into the Bob'n'Rosie production of dic's drunken, depraved, lunacy. Because I was a region guy of the "home region" of HQ, I was far more involved behind the scenes of AC'79 than I was at piffle'77. And, it was no fun!! Piffle was just an ego trip made worth the money the false hype and fraudulent promotion squeezed out of the several thousand "students" who paid whatever the exorbitant price was for a product which was NEVER delivered. And, it only got worse as the years slowly progressed as dic rapidly declined into the haze of substance abuse, alcoholism, and the delusions of his mental illnesses. It was less than 8 years between Piffle'77 and the day dic died. As I look back, my time in TWIt was half a lifetime for me when I left. Now, it's only a quarter! Time flies when you're having fun!!................peace all.

Thanks for no longer posting! What a relief! Here's a good scripture quote for ya on your way out.........."suffer not a fool". Bye-bye now.

I am coming to the conclusion that rrobs may have Asperger's syndrome. Clearly intelligent, well able to function in a mechanical way (after all, he was a pilot) - but not able to comprehend the meaning behind the words. Asperger's people take things at face value; literally; black and white; that's it. Excellent at some tasks, logical, decisive. But lacking, as Rocky remarks, empathy and compassion. Asperger's people can learn a little of what goes on behind the words, but they don't comprehend it. There's more to life than that. Words encapsulate what goes on in the heart. "Love" as such isn't literal, isn't quantifiable or measurable, and isn't mechanical. Nor is "forgiveness." If these are any of those "mechanical" things, it's not love and it's not forgiveness. An alternative to rrobs having Asperger's is that he is simply a Waybot, the sort of person that spouts the scriptures but doesn't properly consider who he's talking to and what their needs might be, but simply talks right over them. These people are like records or tape machines. They aren't really interested in what the person they are talking to has actually said, don't pay attention to responses, and they don't "draw out" from whomever they are talking to what is really going on, what the problem really is. Sadly, Waybots don't even notice when responses cease. Rather, this seems to make them spout even more scripture of increasing irrelevance to the person they are addressing. I don't know whether Waybot-ness is learned behaviour or whether it patterns onto something in the Waybot's own personality. Whatever... they still miss the point that they are dealing with people and people's issues. And thus, (despite probably being well-meaning) they fail to be good ministers of the gospel. I prefer to think of rrobs as the former. The latter thought is too horrible to entertain.

I don't know that you have Asperger's. My question for you was my own and not "GSC". Nor was my question for sport. Your initial post starts of fairly logical but finishes in a confusing way. If you can see why you'll see why it rubs people the wrong way. You're free to restate your opening post for clarity.

That would be "projecting." Which it appears you do quite unconsciously and perhaps frequently in your posts. Btw, Stinky (...er, Twinky... sorry, Twinky, I got quite a chuckle out of Grace's faux pas) may have hit the nail on the head. Aspergers may be the kindest way to assess the fact that so many things we write seem to just go right over rrobs' head. We aren't mental health professionals and certainly are not qualified to diagnose anyone. But for background to perhaps understand why Twinky suggested Asperger's as a possibility, this article might shed some light.

Have you not even read what you posted yesterday? If you don't care whether I believe you, why do you refuse to simply set forth the answers to the questions I posed? Your initial response to my invitation for you to spell it out in your own words strongly suggested you do care.

Oh I get it...well if she doubled as a pimp (a booker for “appointments “ ) she could be called a booker hooker.

Go Ahead, Mike...............protest as much as you like But how are you going to protest FIRST-HAND, EYE WITNESS ACCOUNTS and DOCUMENTATION from Mrs. Wierwille? She was the dutiful wife who gave her accounting of events. She documented many things that stand juxtaposed to vpw's snappy bloviating. She, too, sat in Leonard's class......and then, her husband rushed home and started signing up people for that Oct 1953 class. Idolizing wierwille doesn't change twi's historical reckoning of its theft and plagiarism. TWI was a SPLINTER from Leonard's work and class-based ministry. It is an undeniable FACT.

I think that I should state my position more clearly...... VPW *could teach* a live class.......if he put in the time and discipline, but he was lazy as documenting throughout his childhood. He always took shortcuts and plagiarized from others who HAD put in the work. And, his narcissistic tendencies didn't help matters.........in his mind, he was entitled to "lord over others" and do as he damn well pleased. So, now at this PFAL '77 class, wierwille was age 60 and......had even less discipline in his life. If he wanted to sit at his desk, sip on his Drambuie-coffee and teach PFAL '77....... then that's what he was going to do. Updating the pfal class for future generations be damned. The narcissist had taught it "perfect" once..........that was enough.

And, lest we forget.................the 1967 pfal class, originally, had TWO OTHER SEGMENTS in it. What were they?......1) "The Day Jesus Christ died" (??) and 2) "The Unforgiveable Sin" (??).....iirc The unforgivable sin was taken out because it confused people who thought that they'd committed this sin and couldn't get born again.... And...........some "intermediate class" info had to be scrubbed......so pfal became a 33-hour class, not 36-hours. IN OTHER WORDS..........pfal was far from this "perfect class" that some like to describe. .
