The principle is that individuals in Gods organization are unimportant. It’s “not open to personalities” as the mission statement in the watchtower states...

But if it’s a toss up between financial profits and principles then clearly principles need to be jettisoned if profits are to be maximised....

“You will prize the authors edition.......... in the authors own hand”. Clearly no personalities here!!!!!!!!!!!!

Even the PA system knew it had to behave with such an esteemed speaker at the mic.

“All hung on his words in rapt attention”.

With nineteen, yes nineteen separate occasions for applause. With such a venerated speaker someone thought it was necessary to count and record them. Rutherford received “a great ovation” twice even before He started speaking. The audience was applauding him both as he “ascended the platform” and when “the chairman presented him”. And he hadn’t even said a word yet.

Once again, clearly no personalities here!!!!!!!!!!!!

“We had on the grounds this morning ONLY 40,000 of the AUTOGRAPHED edition”

Absolutely no personalities here!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry about the formatting, it seems a hit or miss process or I just have not got the hang of it.

If anyone can explain how it should be done then please do.

I will try again.

Still Wondering,

Thanks for posting this.

There was at once time a Judge Rutherford cult following!

Does anyone have a scan of the "special letter" of Rutherford's that was in the author's edition?

By reading these old publications it shines new light on the org's number keeping of publishers, hours and publication printing.

When this printing and publishing company sees a quick profit then its REAL principles become manifest.

They discovered early on the publishing worlds’ “Rutherfraud Principle”. “Big prophets make bigger profits”. So they made it their business to excel at BIG prophecy, like any day now,

“THE WHOLE WORLD WILL DIE”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

except us of course.

PROPHETS don’t come bigger than the Watchtowers’ PROFITS.

Still Wondering hi,

Thanks for your work on this, very interesting.

Can't get enough of that drunken loudmouth profit!

That same issue of The Watchtower had one of most often quoted references to that "Children" book and to how close the end is -- "remaining months", not "remaining years".

"Never was there a more moving sight in these "last days". Many, including strong men, wept at the demonstration. Receiving the gift [the book], the marching children clasped it to them, not a toy or plaything for idle pleasure, but the Lord’s provided instrument for most effective work in the remaining months before Armageddon. What a gift! ..." . Most ex-JWs agree, "What a bunch of crap!!!"

ps: math is not my strong suit but I tally that to be some 828 months ago.
