Splane is currently the Co-ordinator of the writing committee.
He is behind a lot of the new changes to the WT and Awake............he is seen as a liberal not a hardliner

David Splane was a missionary in Africa - learned French - was sent by the WT to Quebec - served as CO - wowed the brothers by speaking without notes, talking in an intense voice, while looking everyone in the eye. He received his calling at the time everyone who was being called were being told by their elders that it was very unlikely God would pick some ordianary person to replace an unfaithful king/priest. Rumour had it that his wife was devastated that they would not be together in the NS. Not long after he was scooped up by headquarters.

I have to credit listening to David Splane at a Circuit Assembly 10 years ago with my decision to leave and not go back. Seeing and hearing a Governing Body member pound his finger into the podium and angrily tell the audience that they must listen to the Faithful and Discreet Slave as the voice of God was the icing on the cake. Experiencing it live leaves no doubt about the delusion these men live under.

He started to partake when he was 17.
