    Gumby,

    Great book that "Monuments to False Prophecy," isn't it? It is a treasure trove of information on Grudge Rutherford.

    For those of you who are interested in more on this subject, the book can be obtained from Randy's Freeminds.org site. It's priced around ten dollars or so. It is extremely well-documented with tons of scans of actual material and legal documents.

    Atilla,

    I found some more info. on him you were speakin of.

    ......Rutherford seperated from his wife - a semi-invalid - who could not render the judge his marital dues. He was virtually if not a full, alcoholic. Many times Jehovah's Witnesses workers saw him in a drunken stupor. Other times he could not talk in public due to drunkenness.

    He was known for his vulgar language and was accussed by one of his closest associates of attending a nude burlesque show with two fellow elders and a young Bible student on a Wednesday evening before the celebration of the Lord's supper.

    Another facet was his opulent lifestyle. He had a luxury apartment in New York City, a palatial residence on Staten Island and a San Diego mansion named Beth Sarim, located on a 200 acre estate.

    Damn you Gumby..you have sinned against the Holy spirit by talking this way about Jehovahs past appointed representative on Earth.

    I think JW's should have a parade before every District Convention the best Pyramid float wins.We should also have a J.F Rutherford day that we can get together and shoot off fireworks and break pinata's.

    J.F Rutherford ...my real feelings on the man

    Better yet, a pinata full of beer that looked just like him. People would be more than happy to give it their best whack! They get to club Rutherford and drink beer at the same time!

    Where is Beth Shan?

    Badboy, you may find this interesting:

    http://www.watchtowerinformationservice.org/bethshan.htm

    The Beth Shan property was purchased at a time when much of San Diego was undeveloped, and the 70 plus acres of the Beth Shan property therefore have no street address. It can be most simply described as adjacent to Beth Sarim on the opposite side of a half-mile wide canyon.

    The property is described in surveyor's terms in the deed, reproduced on pages 247, 248 and 249 of "MONUMENTS TO FALSE PROPHECY" by Edmond C. Gruss and Leonard Chretien published 1997 by Witness Inc. and available from Randy Watters at FREEMINDS and possibly elsewhere.
