Yes - I have a copy of this book but it was before my time on studying it. "You can Live Forever in Paradise on Earth" big red book replaced it in 1982 I think. That is what I studied.

It's false evidence planted by Satan.
Two posters have "tongue-in-cheek" suggested this.
I have heard this on a number of occasions from JWs and YECs/Bon agains.
What can one say against arguments like that?

EXPLOSIVE RUTHERFORD THREAD RESTORED
by Farkel inwhat i consider to be my most important contribution to this board had become corrupted somehow and i thought lost.
while rooting around for some other information, i found a site that had reconstructed the entire 28 page thread!
the thread is much more important than just what i contributed, because many, many people spent money and time doing further research and thread took on a life of its own.. this is an introduction provided at the site i found:.

Rutherford Exposed: The Story of Berta and Bonnie (redux)
by Leolaia inin september 2004, farkel posted an article on this forum called "rutherford exposed: the story of berta and bonnie.
" his essay, which subsequently was translated into several languages and which received over 10,000 views after the first month, spawned a thread that ran 28 pages and contained the collaborative research efforts of many in jwd.
this thread was thought by some moderators to be the best in the forum -- not necessarily because of the claims in the original essay but because it inspired a staggering amount of research aimed at assessing the credibility of the claims made in the essay, as well as adding to our knowledge of this fascinating yet obscure chapter of watchtower history.

Beware of the Strawman argument!
by Farkel inyears ago before i took the time and effort to study logic and argumentation, i went to a market and bought some toothpaste.
it was a little-known brand and it touted "baking soda" as its magic ingredient.
it was also cheaper than the name-brand toothpastes and that helped me in my decision.

144,000 Kings & Priests? Absurd!
by Farkel inthe whole dub notion of a heavenly ruling class made up of printing corporation elites hand-picked by the creator himself, started with the quasi-calvinistic elitest founder of the printing corporation, namely, chuck russell.
russell was convinced he was somehow "special" and chosen at birth to do great things.
now jesus felt the same way, but chuck russell wasn't no jesus.
