Ok, that provided a piece I was missing. I knew that vpw said he chose lcm as his successor because lcm would always follow his orders- but he was expecting to die in a few years, which would make that criterion useless. However, having lcm follow orders from HA and DW would make some sense. The problem came because lcm was not in on the con! vpw KNEW he was saying one thing in public-a nice thing, often correct- and saying the opposite in private- self serving and immoral- making sure that few of us knew what a perverted disgrace he was to the family of God. His con was so successful that he convinced lcm that all his pronouncements came by divine revelation (not his dedicated telephone line to the John Birch Society or anyone else). So, once lcm had the chair, he was convinced HE would get pronouncements by divine revelation. So, he believed the con and began (eventually) making stupid pronouncements that chased off twi members. vpw's own con tripped up his plans.
As for what DW got out of it, he was able to use his running of Emporia for his doctrinal thesis to complete his doctorate in Education.

It's also no accident that Wierwille and his doctrine attracted people connected to the John Birch Society and that various conspiracy theories from JBS spilled over into twi. JALvis' father (a key Wi
