L. Evans, aka, "Mr. I can't control my penis," has lost about two years of Patreon growth. I'm still amazed that more haven't left him. Maybe they can't control their penis either.

It is obvious that Evans didn't leave the Witnesses because of an intellectual rejection of doctrine or practice. He ran away to avoid the consequences of his immorality. That makes his opposition to the Watchtower fraudulent.
Discovering that "it wasn't the truth" after being kicked out for immorality and stupidity is self justification. It is not intellectual honesty. Too many X-Witness activists follow this same pattern. They pick on anything to justify themselves. Find something in the 1940 Watchtower! It's a scandal!
Some youtube makers need a real life.

Diog,
You mean Massimo Introvigne? Why is he your 'pet hate'? I've read some of his stuff. He has a web 'magazine.' I don't find it offensive, even if I don't always agree. My uncle B belongs to the same scholarly society as he does, but I've never asked him about Dr. Introvigne.

Fulltime,
My mother's constant criticism of the Watch Tower was that they failed to educate their clergy. My mom was a long-time teacher, one time professor, and exceptionally well educated. She spent a good portion of her life analyzing WT beliefs and practices. I have read their 'material,' their kingdom ministry school texts and such, and I have to agree.
My grand uncle and a few other Witnesses I've met are exceptions. Two of my uncles by marriage are elders, both college educated prior to conversion. The congregation I sometimes attend [to take notes and enjoy the people - They're quite nice] is populated with more college graduates than normal for Witness groups. But I would say only two of their elders are capable of handling complex situations. Being a teacher, an electrical engineer, and a scientist - the professions of those elders - does not equip one to deal with complex mental and social issues.
Mom knew some of the WT Society 'big boys' and thought them very competent. I don't know any of them. My impression is that other than making videos, they hide out.

I see that someone, maybe the same person, down votes criticism of Lloyd. That someone should speak his piece. Tell us why he approves of Lloyd despite his self-revelations.

FuillTime:
I've had the same experience. My Grand Uncle can tell you exactly what he believes and why. But my aunt cannot. To her "it's the truth and that's all I need to know." I don't know if that's a function of her age - about 80 - or her stroke. But it may be that she was once convinced and does not want to face the possibility of error.

Oh, I read Tuchman's book. Once when I was 12 and last year. Brilliantly written. I add my recommendation.

The one thing Lloyd has done that is worth while is provide us with hours of entertainment. It's a Tragi-Comedy. I hope paetreon deletes his account. Then he can go back to window washing or what ever he did before.

He patreon followers decrease a bit at a time. What puzzles me is the number of twitter followers he has. Do we really like watching train wrecks that much?
