Actually Igzy what I would expect is that this would have been discovered long ago before the LSM GLA split i.e. there would have been high quality standards of scholarship in place and policed especially by the leadership. If such an atmosphere existed in the LCS then Lee and his colleagues would have been called to account for their antics and some level of integrity and credibility might have been maintained.

In another thread you stated that the main problem with the LCS is the authority structure and the ground of locality. One is structural and the other a made up "doctrine" for children to make them have a false sense of security that they are right and all others are wrong. But I would suggest another problem: the lack of integrity in the leadership and that includes being wimpy. Men of integrity would not have allowed Lee to do the things he did regardless of the other two items.

It remains to be seen what the GLA will do about the Recovery Version now that Tomes has published his findings. But I think it naive to believe Tomes is operating in a little vacuum all by his lonesome and the other leaders including Titus Chu know nothing about what he is going to publish. Suddenly, "Surprise, surprise look what Tomes wrote!" I seriously doubt it.
