That was in the 90s, under the lcm regime. vpw made lcm twofold the child of hell

lcm made his own foundational class, etc. When each class was finished, the students
were ASSIGNED to write letters about how great it was, using specifics.

If...(since discovering life w/o twi)
...you still spend years after "leaving" your so-called CULT, wasting your time on the Internet, with the same Cult people you lived with, when you were IN the Cult!
...and still trying to figure out what happened?
That actually got a giggle out of me - although it hasn't been a few years yet.
