The AS secondary intent was holiness ... although the official rhetoric coming out of HQ was that the 1992 conference was mainly about it ...

Urshan's letter gave that impression to most of us not in the loop ... My dad died thinking that the AS and the 1992 conference was about TV and standards ...

anyone who was there and even prior to ... in the private GB meetings attests to the fact that the main issue was the New Birth ...

Our Elders know this Josh ... men like Elder Strange and others can testify to this ...

No one can't deny standards did not play a role but it was not the thrust.

I think our Elders did not get into the matter w/ us as not to confuse us with the complexities and shades that exist in describing the difference and similarities between the PCI and PAJC positions ... so they told us it was a 'black and white" issue ... keeping our heritage ... standards ... holiness ... etc.

And yes ... the PCI was dying a slow death ... and perhaps not viewed as a major threat ... but the AS was framed to provide the final blow. Sign or leave.
