he not only knew the woman in question (she's now deceased), he has met her numerous times.
up until recently this secret of her year's long sexual affair with rutherford was kept by the family.
and again you come to the year 1923
So far, all the information, even if second or third hand, has been consistent!
Leolaia, I would like to get a copy of the Peale's census data.
I am near Long Beach, think looking up Berta's obituary (if any was published) would be useful?

AlanF had this to say back in 2001, which I am re-posting because it is difficult to find informaiton in the older threads here at JWD. --VM44

As my grandpa used to say, Rutherford was 'some piece a woik' alright.
There is good evidence that Rutherford was an adulterer. Around 1928 he and his entourage were staying at some hotel, and one morning one of the Bible Student ladies who straightened up the rooms found a lady's hairpin in Rutherford's bed. His room was adjoined by that of his mistress of the moment, another Bible Student lady who doubled as Rutherford's cook. This discovery led to the resignation of a pile of Bible Students in the area of Buffalo, New York, who formed their own group.
This story was given to me by the son of one of the Bible Students who had resigned. Jim Penton has been gathering pretty solid evidence to support this. AlanF

blondie,
Trinity buzzword: Religion, Big Business, Politics
don't forget also Rutherford's favorite rant, The Roman Catholic Hierarchy!
Look forward to reading your series on this.

Hi minimus
But I don't see clear "evidence" of anything immoral that Rutherford did
The trouble was, and still is, that anyone who knew anything kept quiet! Perhaps it was to avoid shame, or embarrasment, or they figured what was the use of saying anything. So nothing was said, and that just helped to sweep things under the rug, which is just the way the Watchtower liked it.
Over time, as people who knew the facts die off, the Watchtower will be able to say ANYTHING it likes about Rutherford! They are already doing it now, saying that he was a strong, gentle, humble, kind man. No one is around to contest what they say.
The time is now to get what testimony is still available. and to publish it!

Hi blondie
His stuff is basically the same few concepts over and over and over strewn with a few scriptures.
Perhaps you could summarize these concepts? It would be interesting to see what Rutherford emphasized over and over again.

Farkel, Great writeup! This is one of the most important posts I have read here. With the correct last name for Berta, I found the following:
BERTA PEALE, Born: 30 Oct 1901, Died: May 1973, Last Residence zip code 90813 (Long Beach, Los Angeles, CA), Social Security Number: 550-42-2857
The "Judge" was born in 1869, so Berta was 32 years younger than Rutherford.
I hope this won't be the end to the research. People need to continue to come forward with what information they have.
Didn't larc say that his wife was also going to write something?

there was a thread here, about philosophy.
a good description of the various branches of philosophy was posted and some comments about how the wts view philosophy.
i cannot find that thread!!
Hi Sirona,
No, that is not the thread, but it is an interesting one.
The thread I am thinking about dealt with the topic of Philosophy. I have been trying to search for it, but have been unable to find it so far.

I cannot find that thread!! Does anyone know where it is?
In particular I want the post where someone told of a pioneer sister who wanted to take a night course in philosophy, but the elders told her if she did, she would be removed as a pioneer!
Ah yes, no thought control there!
Have people noticed when the WT talks about philosophy, they never give any details other than it is "empty" and "worldy wisdom"? So the JWs shake their heads in agreement, but if asked, they wouldn't even know what they are agreeing about.
Anyway, if anyone can find that thread, it would be appreciated.

okay, so we learned in recent threads how jf rutherford was seperated from his wife from the time he took possession of the watchtower society, and how they lived apart thenceforth.
so....to quote butt-head, did rutherford ever "get any"?
did he live a purported "chaste life" that russell claimed to?
Hi Farkel,
Well, I think Maximus (who I wish well, and hope is feeling better.) knew who was writing the Rutherford bio.
and RR knows something about a book, but he ain't talking!
