You do realize that this one, or several, individual(s) wasn't speaking for the entire council and that the council is comprised of over 1.5 million members, over half of which could care less what kind on calls, handsigns, steps, etc., ANY org does, including their own. I think you should step out of the bubble and take a look at the bigger picture

...and I have been saying it post after post but for whatever reason folk insist on ignoring it; I am NOT anti-NPHC, but there is a certain attitude/mentality/mindset that the vast majority of members have that I absolutely hate and it irritates me. And I am at least 90% certain that the root cause of it lies in idolatry, which in turn feeds other negative attitudes such as arrogance (the biggest by-product of the idolatry, IMO).
And this experience didn't happen just once. It has happened over and over and over and over again. Heck, I have been on GC 5 1/2 years and I'm STILL getting the same experience on a regular basis; it's just via cyberspace rather than in person.
I know what the problem and issues are, and while I admit I can be no walk in the park, at least I'm humble enough to admit my wrongdoings and faults when justified. I guess my question to all those out there is, "Can you?"
But I seriously digress...
