paul wrote: really, woe is me if i did not declare the good news!

(1 corinthians 9:16) he was not casual about the good news because preaching it meant life for himself and his hearers.

(1 timothy 4:16) we view our ministry in the same way.

I guess PP was referring to this scripture.
(Luke 10:7) 7 So stay in that house, eating and drinking the things they provide, for the worker is worthy of his wages. Do not be transferring from house to house.

Vindication I (book, 1931) pp.156-157
The church congregations of Christendom are attended chiefly by women, and women have much to do with the policy thereof. In many of the church organizations women occupy the pulpit and preach and prophesy. The numerous women's clubs have become a part of the political and religious organizations of Christendom. These female prophets mnke a display of human foresight and prudence. They wield a powerful influence over the men. Politicians and political clergymen among men no longer dare to speak in plain terms of women's proper place in the church or in the home, for fear of losing political influence and support.
The women make monkeys or dupes of men. The men have become effeminate, soft and easily influenced, and have lost their real manhood and sturdiness in the affairs of state and home. For instance, when men are sitting at a table and a woman approaches, all the men arise and pay her homage and thereby elevate her to a place above men. The men remove their hats upon entering an elevator, if a woman is present; and these things are said to be acts of respect and to show that a man is a gentleman. But it is subtle, and the real meaning is much different from that. It is a scheme of Satan to turn men away from God and from his announced rule of the proper position of man and woman. The Lord has declared that no effeminate man shall inherit the kingdom of heaven. (1 Cor. 6:9) This proves that the scheme or habit of paying homage to women is not of God, but from the great enemy of God. It is a veneer of being a proper thing, and therefore it is more subtle than otherwise.

PS Imagine if Rutherford said anything like that today in the United States.

i saw this on a yahoo group.

this is an interesting speculation that ray franz would have caused a schism in 1980 if he had prevailed.

likely bogus, as there is no clear parallel.

Are not the members of the GB men? So instead of following one man they follow a group of men. Many do not even know the names of all those men on the GB. Yet they are willing to trust their words.

the wts was smart enough to not setup a forum on their site.

they knew too much of the truth would come out!.

google has released a simple solution to this little problem: google sidewiki.

Will be intersting to see the society's reaction. Maybe they will have a convention talk addressing this issue.
