It seems to me that the definition of an affiliation is representative of a large number of different types of working relationships.
It seems espescially interesting to me to note that one of the huge variables appears to be how much control one part of an affiliation may have over the other.
But for the purposes of your thread here it may be more relevant to note how that it may be more important that an affiliation may be more applicable in terms of loyalties, purpose, or manner of behavior.
It seems a terrible waste for these larger splinter groups that their true affiliation is with TWI in terms of the heavy handed authoritarianism, manipulative manners, scriptural blindness, and most unfortunately IMO the paranoid lack of transparancy that hides who knows how much abuse!?
that's the real problem.. yeah, "I'll tell you something if you love and worship me.." seems to be the real attitude here. Won't communicate with *anonymous* people..
I've seen income reports in piles in the lobbies of at least one church and several non-profit organizations.. they don't even CARE if one is wearing a mask, when one picks it up..
I think what is really *wrong* with affiliation.. at least to them.. most legitimate organizations.. would not have them. They are either- not qualified, as in education, certification, etc.. or DISQUALIFIED.. by ungodly actions..
interesting, isn't it..
but some of these numbnuts manage to get a half a second of fame..
publish some really weird s*It, and somebody who means dang in the world just might offer some kind of honest criticism..
and its *free*.
anybody who STILL supports this nuttiness.. I spit in your general direction..

I now redirect this thread to jl's new *organization*.
Who do you plan on being affiliated with? Your own self?
What is technically WRONG with sucking it in a little bit, and getting along with other Christians?
Maybe for the right kind of money, da way would license you a franchise..
