I just posted one possible solution. Did you not read it?

Wouldn't it be interesting if they simply folded up the tent and went out of business?

This is a false dilemma. It assumes these are the only 2 options possible.

You can't make someone fix something if they don't want to fix it.

When my son was in about 4th or 5th grade he said, "Hey, Dad, let's build a go-kart." I said, "OK, how will we make it go?" He said, "We'll put an old lawnmower engine on it." "Well, that sounds good", I said. "How will we make the engine turn the wheels?" So, God, who can only talk to spirit, teaches my spirit, which teaches my .......Hey! Wait a minute!

"If it's accurate" is the key phrase here that makes the difference.

I probably didn't state my point very well. What I mean is that, when commenting on J.J's writings, the focus should be on what he wrote and not who wrote it. If's it's accurate, it shouldn't matter who said it or whether he is an insider or an outsider..

J.J's criticisms should be based on content, not the man.

I understand how and why people might perceive them as pure, but, rest assured, they were far from pure or even relatively pure.

Meh. Mike disappears for extended periods of time and is unchanged when he returns. Gotta give him credit for one thing, though. He's thoroughly mastered that "Stand, no matter what!" schtick.
-
I guess I just don't understand why he would even need this degree, seeing as how God gave him access to all the secrets of the universe anyhow.

Let's all take our songbooks now and turn to "We've Got A Great Big Limited God". Isn't that tree-mend-us!!

Yes, let's compare. Let's compare a phony doctorate with a real one.

And this makes him a Dr.? I went to Burger Biggie last week. I must be a chef now.

He went to Princeton Theological Seminary, not "Princeton". Maybe it's true, maybe it's not. It should be easy enough to verify by doing an alumni search, something that doesn't really interest me. He spent a brief time at Pikes Peak Seminary ( a building that is currently functioning as a B&B). Where can I find his dissertation? And that makes him a "Dr."? How?
-
You all know he wasn't really a "Dr.", right?

Sooooo? ...............TVTs?

I don't think the expression "Date and Switch" was used internally but it's certainly what comes to my mind when the conversation turns in this direction. Young women would sometimes feign romantic interest in a class prospect just long enough to get them to sign up and start the class. Then, they would move on to the next "sale". Of course, we're all humans with physical needs, so sometimes the relationship reached the next level, as well. Lots of posters here have recounted their experiences with this practice

Maybe this is off-topic. I don't know. You decide. In the late '60s, early '70s it wasn't at all uncommon to see kids hitchhiking, especially kids who were too young to have their own car. And they often traveled together because that's what kids do, they hang out together. Well, at least that was the case in Cleveland, where I grew up. This much of Mike's story I can believe. All of this has no real relevance, of course, so do with it what you will. just because...

I have a girlfriend. She..uhhh.. goes to a different school in another town. -

It makes no difference whether they were selling the class themselves directly or being held accountable for those who were. If you were a branch leader, area leader or limb leader, it was up to you to make sure the class was being sold. -
TWI Verbal Tradition (A phrase that originated with Mike.) It refers to things you learned in twig, for example, that aren't officially recorded in the written materials. So, in other words, TWI can't be held accountable for any bad behavior you learned in twig, unless it's enshrined in the collaterals. "Lead by example". is just a suggestion /s
