Make me laugh till it hurts, why don't ya?
"we simply do what it says and don't try to twist out interpretations that will serve our agenda. There are no contradictory parts of the Bible. Rutherford was reluctant to talk of international affairs, since he felt an expression of personal opinion might be construed as reflecting of members "who must, in all things, follow their own consciences."
That was an interesting article. First time I've seen it. Thanks for sharing.

I kept wondering whether he was drunk when he talked to the reporter or somehow he felt the need to lie through his teeth
Somehow the second seems more likely

From all the evidence we have, there is no doubt that someone is lying through their teeth.
I agree Lady Lee. Rutherford in one picture I sent to VM44 clearly has a (cigar case) in his coat pocket. You can even see the (rounded tip) of a cigar from the side view. Then on that same day when Ritherford is giving the newspaper-man an interview, Rutherford knew he was going to get a (close-up) picture taken, and he made sure he took the (cigar-case) out of his pocket for his close-up picture.

I could be wrong but I don't think the ruling about smoking came until a long time after his death.
Atlantis,
I wonder if the secret "abode" in St. Louis was just a place where Rutherford could be housed incognito merely while the convention was going on. Or is this indeed another one of his parcels of real estate? Any sleuths in St. Louis?

I wondered that too. Since he traveled with an entourage it would make sense that they have a bigger place to stay. We know he had places in major cities but I see no reason why he would have a permanent place in St. Louis. (unless of course the booze flowed faster than it did in other states during the prohibition)
Lady Lee,

If they got the go-ahead maybe they'll dig up the Judge...
bttt for newbies.
The above thread is one of the best threads on exposing the Beth-Sarim/Beth-Shan false prophecies by the Watchtower Society.
My compliments to all who contributed to this thread.

Rutherfords wife also lived in California - according to the "Proclaimers" book "for the sake of her health."
I should be interested to find out how far apart her place in Monrovia is from Rutherford's house.
Why were they separated anyway? Who paid for her residence? Rutherford? If he did the possible reasons intrigue me.
