BrummieRussell: Infants, not fit companions for saints


I guess this expalins why Russell didnt want everyone to go to heaven with him:

"If heaven were made the receptacle of the heathen, savages, barbarians, the idiotic, simple, insane and infants, it would cease to be heaven to a considerable extent, and become a pandemonium .. billions of ignorant, imbecile and degraded .. never formed characters [not] fit companions for saints"

WT Oct 15 1896 p245

Infants mentioned in context with imbeciles, idiotic, insane, as if they were all as bad as eachother and are not fit companians for him and his freinds. pfft
