For example, I saw one thread, allegedly by a newly-PIMO elder, complaining about specific issues in his congregation and how he was trying to exit but it looked like it had been written by a 14 year old. Call me a snob, but for me, that instantly reduced the credibility of the writer.
I don't know. The publications also seem like they were written for fifth graders. I don't see modern elders exposed to anything rigorous. It's all dumbed down (as strage as that might seem to us).
