The UCs were never the only group in this org...they might have been the most vocal or in control longer or whatever but many others put a lot into this group and in fact were kicked out, forced out, marginalized or whatever...this org has become something it was never meant to be. It seems the org became an Idol rather than a means of unifying all OPs to evangelize this world.

I don't agree with this Statement. No one has made an Idol out of an organzation- never seen anyone bow before a UPC statue or anything AND everyone is trying to evangelize their area regardless if they are not using a TV. even those that want to advertise have evangelized their communities w/o it.

An idol doesn't have to tangible to be worshipped.
