It is a hard thing and a terrible line to have to walk. Frustrating, maddening, heartbreaking. They are victims who have been fooled and over time in the case of LW==very short time--brainwashed. Light a candle for those still suffering. They may not think they are suffering but precious time is being whittled away. Now they want to give direction to those in or going in to retirement. What is that about 9/10 of the all the people. It is time to instruct them how to give in retirement. I truly hope this is a red flag for people when they hear the words focused on giving to the church.
It makes me sick to think that LWF would do that so they can get every last cent. Let them all go; release them to have some kind of life in this world before their final exit. They have given enough; let them live their lives for crying out loud.
Hargrave you have the power to end this madness for them. Do the right thing,please. Not that you care about the right thing. But maybe you can just do it anyway; you have benefited handsomely from their sacrifice. Just do it.
