It is interesting reading about the unfolding of historic events and GSCs involvement in them. I would note that TWIs tactics have changed over time. RFR was a technophobe and labeled technology as devilish and tried various tactics to shut down GSC. The current group has changed directions and embraced technology with multiple “positive only” scriptural sites and basically flooding the internet with as much info as possible so their followers never find this site. So with both tactics the BOD actions are obscured from the laymen they affect.
The other side of the story remains valid exposing all of the BITE model control tactics used by TWI cult, and showing off the extreme ego of these leaders and their positions as they live a life with many servants attending to them while they abuse the laity ongoing. Get those volunteer workers going with all of the trademarked WOW activity put those classes together keep those hamsters running on the wheel happy and donating.
I would just take OS post as he doesn’t feel welcome here with a Christian view and he has his reasons. So hopefully focusing on the openness and not the lying or whatever other perception you are putting forth is better.
And I would say that he is entitled to how he feels, but his statements have been made before and corrected before, so after a certain point it's a matter of actual fact.
I invite anyone and everyone to go through the threads in Doctrinal and Open and About the Way. "Christian" posts are everywhere, and the overwhelming majority are unchallenged.
We do have one subforum where such challenges are the norm and not the exception. Spend a disproportionate amount of time in that forum and you may leave with a disproportionate understanding of what happens at GSC.
[For anyone still unaware, modcat5 and Raf are the same person]

With many of the forums I follow and Reddit channels those leaving cults have a high percentage that also depart from Christianity. You are among those. I do not dispute that the rules of GSC are open and I personally feel as a mod you are very accommodating to conversation even outside the rules boundaries.
Many who are working through cult issues have fragility in their faith and some are going through various stages of what they term “shelf breaking”.
I am also trying to be a little less direct and confrontational due to these elements. At times I do better than other times. We chase each other out of here at times by being unfiltered.
Thanks for your efforts to keep this place alive and going. You deserve extra recognition for that.

That was kind but unnecessary.
A good number of rules on this site were designed specifically to address the improper ways I handled disagreements with other people [ahem,Mike,ahem]. I've been tempted in all points like as you are, yet with sin after sin after sin. I am in no position to be judgmental against people who may end up having mod ID's of their own after a while.
Did they merely insist, or were they successful in getting it posted here? Link?
I was not privy to the exact discussion. (I might have been laughing too hard to help if I HAD been in the room when that was discussed.) Paw did agree to post their response. I'll see about finding a link when I'm up to it.

What a great video! Thanks RighteousRider. Perhaps the greatest mistake man can make is to think otherwise.
