Rutherford:

Funny, I was just telling my niece about the millions now living will never die shtick,, she is 14 and had never heard of it.
so many of the dubs don't even have a clue about the origins of their own religion, they think it was handed to Russell by god on the mountain top.
This religion is the biggest sham since P.T. declared he had a mermaid on display, He said that there is a sucker born every min, and a conman every 30 sec. the society if full of both.
You know when I talk to some of my relatives about the dubdom, I get Where Would I Go?
This is a society directed phrase to stop the argument,as there is not apparent reply, the only truthful one is that you don't know, Just like the only truthful thing you can be as far as any religion goes is agnostic, no one can at least at this time in human history know if god even exists or not, if you believe in god you must take it on faith, by the laws of science you can not say god does not exist because it is impossible for man to prove a universal negative. So for me I am an agnostic. I don't know but I lean to god does not exist because there is no evidence to suggest that he does. But the dubbs do exist and they are confused.
Millions Now Living Will Never Learn
Ray Franz pointed out in C of C edition 1 that while the Aid book was being prepared they were counselled (by Freddie)to keep it pure - far too many writers just re-hashed old material from old publications - very sad really . Millions now living is just one of many examples
18 In the early 1920?s, a featured public talk presented by Jehovah?s Witnesses was entitled "Millions Now Living Will Never Die." This may have reflected overoptimism at that time. But today that statement can be made with full confidence. Both the increasing light on Bible prophecy and the anarchy of this dying world cry out that the end of Satan?s system is very, very near! The Memorial report for 1996 shows that 12,921,933 attended, of whom only 8,757 (.068 percent) indicated their heavenly hope by partaking of the emblems. The restoration of true worship nears completion. But let us never slack the hand in that work. Yes, Haggai 2:4 states: "?Be strong, all you people of the land,? is the utterance of Jehovah, ?and work. For I am with you people,? is the utterance of Jehovah of armies." May we be determined that no strains of materialism or worldliness will ever dampen our zeal for Jehovah?s work!?1 John 2:15-17.
Man this really makes me sick. The WT loaded language almost gives me a literal physical lurch when I read it.
I think it's interesting to note that the serpent told Eve the same thing, "you will NOT die.".......and.....Jesus also assured those of his day that many living then would not die.
Danny Haszard sez,How many bites at the bridle does the Watchtower leadership get when Joe Rutherford's millions prophecy failed he said quote."i have made an ass of myself"
