not on JW.ORG: Why did "Holy Spirit" direct Jehovah's Witnesses Governing Body member JF Rutherford to build a private luxury compound ( Beth Sarim) during the great depression?

    With a concrete saw and some digging in the garage we could put to rest...WHERE IS THE JUDGE BURIED? Could possibly be an exibit like the La Brea tar pits..glass, little fence the whole shebang!

    Bomb shelter tour. JF Rutherford miracle fruit trees. Old sound car. Barbra Anderson museum of rare documents and photos of the Judge along the hallways... I have some old records of his talks and the Bethel version of the phonograph and all his old books.

    If we could just get Barbra and hubby to move out from Tenn.......

    Any other ideas?

    What if a group of JWs paid for a Tour de Beth Sarim? We could do a Youtube Video of a group of Ex-JWs discovering their heritage and showing the World the high life JF lived. Do you know anyone who knows how to film like "Blair Witch Project" and how could we could put up 3d images of Rutherford spouting off his strange prophecy while holding a big bottle of gin?

    With Forest Gump you had the first use of putting Tom Hanks before Richard Nixon, imagine having Rutherford in his own video speaking from the dead to all of us on the tour? Cool idea!

    Could make some good $$ renting it out for weddings and parties. A mini wax museum too!!

    We could doing something with Beth Sarim if you can locate some quality film makers a few of us wrote a killer script that would make Snookie cry! There's a former JW couple who worked in Hollywood and kicked around the idea of making a JW Reality TV Show because we are such strange birds! They would need access to even more outrageous real life Judical Committee stories to catch the "Four Minute Audience's attention" span. The Watchtower is heading down the road of the "Shakers", they had their Season in the Sun and now it's only going to decline from here on out. What good is a Doomsday Cult if there's nothing happening in the World and all you hear about at Meetings is to give more money to help build Kingdom Halls we don't need?

    The Watchtower has been laid bare as a naked Whore on the Internet, there's no more hiding their lying past and no more blame-game on the rank-and-file when it was the Top Drunks who made all the False Prophecies! The Governing Body committed Spiritual Harlotry when they joined the United Nations and blasted other religions for doing the same thing, they are the worse type of liars!

    While the pioneers were freezing their asses off and living in trailers to gain their salvation, their leader enjoyed two (2) no not one (1) but 2 (two) 16 cylinder cadillacs during the depression. While bethelites had to live in small rooms without a.c. the Judge lived in luxury.

    Olin Moyle his own attorney, called him out over his lifestyle and the Judge kicked him and his wife out from Bethel (actually he resigned but the Judge threw their belongings to the curb outside of Bethel) and disgraced him publicly in the Watchtower magazine as being a Judas and speaking against the Lord. Olin Moyle sued the Watchtower & Judge Rutherford and won. Walter Salter, branch overseer from Canada also had the courage to reprimand Rutherford for his luxury living and well you know what happened.

    How on earth can these people criticize the clergy when they themselves screw their own?

    I think a lot of his decisions can be explained by the haze of alcohol.

    I agree. It was during prohibition, but the booze was pouring in abundance right across the border in Tijuana.

    Also, it has been noted that San Diego is about as far as you could get from Bethel/Brooklyn while staying in the US.
