"You'll just have to trust me on this."........VPW (CF&S)

John Once again, your post serves no purpose other than to act as a catylist for diversion. There is nothing about this discussion that is even remotely related to Jesus, God, The Bible, cleansing or anything else along those lines. As I stated earlier, the subject of this discussion is the dubious nature of Mr. Wierwille's academic "credentials" and the reluctance of some people, such as yourself, to accept that reality. Please stay on the same page as everyone else.

John, how does that relate to the discussion? Are you saying it's wrong to question Mr. Wierwille's credentials because God has "cleansed" him? How do you know God "cleansed" him? Is it because you heard him say "Lo shanta la maka see tay."?

In all the FellowLaborer pictures I've ever seen, there is always someone missing. (Out on an assignment, running a class or whatever) So, it's possible Earl was simply "missing" that day. Still, I understand what you're saying about things not adding up. He's still around, running some sort of splinter effort someplace. Maybe he'll drop in and chew the fat with us.......but I doubt it.

I'm having hot dogs in my backyard tonight. All of you UK believers are required to be there. (Please bring your own condiments.)

Glenda Sue Mxxxw#11....I think she was in the band, Cookin' Mama. Maybe our friend from the sock drawer remembers.

I suppose if someone were so inclined, they could get in touch with Pat and ask her. I don't know why, but I always thought Johnny Townsend was one of the zero corps alumni. Not sure at all if that is accurate.

Well, stealing is OK if you do it to "move the word", isn't it? <_<

Nine members in the Zero Corps-----Reminded me of this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxI3OS3vlCw

Guess that one is too obscure, also. It's Dream Weaver. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Hdx9JjzDfo FREE POST!!

Weren't Dorothy and Rhoda in the first L.E.A.D. group? :biglaugh:

Everyone knows it's WINDY.....of course. I just closed my eyes again.

It's not so much an argument as it is a distraction. Don't like someone questioning Wierwille's credentials? No problem. Just pretend the conversation is somehow related to Jesus. Better yet, draw some kind of parallel between Wierwille and Jesus. I want to know how Wierwille was able to represent himself as the team captain, when, in reality, he wasn't qualified to be anything more than the team go-fer. Oh, please, someone draw an analogy to Jesus or Buddha or Krishna or Mohamed. .... or, P.T. Barnum.(that one I can buy.)

I stopped at one of the popular "gas stations" that boasts of fresh coffee. As I approached the register, I took a sip. The coffee was stale and putrid. I called it to the attention of the cashier. He said, "OK, it's no charge.".....Huh?... Was that supposed to make it taste any better? Sooooo... Wierwile plagiarized the work of others (stale coffee) and passed it off as his own. But, because everyone called him "Doctor" (The coffee was free.) he is somehow excused?

Zero Corps: a group of nine members, originally called the First Corps, who joined the first Way Corps program and all quit or were dismissed SOURCE

This one was probably too obscure to be easily recognized. It's Better Man Than I by The Yardbirds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7Qr2hlsknI FREE POST!

The "Zero Corps" was Wierwille's first attempt at developing a Way Corps program. The time-frame would have been about 1969 or 1970. The Way Corps, as you may or may not know, was/is an in-residence "training program" designed to indoctrinate particular Way followers to accept a life-long commitment of servitude to the organization. It is communal style living. (Think Jonestown, minus the horrific ending.) To Wierwille's dismay, he was not able to exercise complete control over this particular group so he disbanded it and sent them all "packing". To escape unwanted scrutiny, Wierwille swept the effort under the carpet and blamed its failure on the participants. The following year, he started afresh and the new group was eventually dubbed Way Corp #1, or the 1st Corps. Subsequent groups are referred to in like manner. (WC#6, WC#17, etc.) There is a lot more here on GSC regarding this matter.

Can you judge a man, By the way he wears his hair? Can you read his mind, By the clothes that he wears? Can you see a bad man, By the pattern on his tie?

At least you're in a position of being able to determine the statistical probabilities.
