Possible UBF Responses to My Personal Story

Some of the seriously screwed up, cynical, inadequate, inane and all too typical responses that arise in the UBF mind to personal stories such as mine:

  1. "It is good that you at least refer to Dr. Lee as 'Mr. Lee' instead of just 'Lee' or 'Ee' like some people do, but please show more respect for 'God's servant' and refer to him as 'Dr. Lee.' "
  2. "Why do you write about what happened to other people in Chicago UBF? Why should you care?"
  3. "You are just beating a dead horse, not that I'm comparing Dr. Lee to a dead horse."
  4. "Dr. Lee just made some mistakes, that's all."
  5. "Dr. Lee just had a 'charismatic leadership style,' that's all."
  6. "Did you know that Dr. Lee wore the same suit for 15 years?"
  7. "You are just complaining. You must have a 'complaining spirit.' "
  8. "You are just being unthankful."
  9. "Why don't you mention any good things you experienced?"
  10. "Why do you hate Dr. Lee?"
  11. "UBF is growing and becoming very 'fruitful.' "
  12. "Why did you include my name? How dare you include my name? You need my permission to include my name!"
  13. "You sound like you are too 'hurt.' "
  14. "Why do you kick against the goads?" (In other words, "You really want to come back to UBF, don't you?")
  15. "Why do you want to destroy UBF?"
  16. "We forgive you."
  17. "Before you criticize UBF, you better pioneer all nations like Dr. Lee."

Compared to such responses, I'd much rather hear, "You're lying."
