If I recall, the WT used to teach that the 1918-1919 stagnation and subsequent imprisonment of the eight WT officials was an expression of God's displeasure owing to lingering vestiges of Christendom and compromise on the issue of neutrality; that belief seems to have been scuttled; or has it? What have you observed?
What ever happened to the ``soiled garments" teaching of 1918-1918?

The WTS uses Malachi 3:1-5 to say that the WTS was cleansed in 1918 and appointed FDS in 1919 but that ignores that
Birthdays continued to be celebrated after 1919
Xmas until 1926
The cross was not removed from the cover of the WT until 1931
Pyramidology was effective until 1928

Spot on Blondi, God cleaned the org. but did not do a very good job. A little more elbo grease would have maybe helped.

No,no. God cleaned up ok; it was just the imperfect men that didn't get it! The men---not Jehovah----were the problem.

Soiled garments" sounds a little too personal to me.
