    I just feel sorry for all the bethel workers being fed brussels sprouts so they could provide the "air conditioning" for rutherford

    The air conditioning issue came up in Moyle's trial. Supposedly Van Amburgh had A/C before the Judge did. Nonetheless, the Judge had an entire air conditioned floor in the 1930s...hard to argue he was "one of the guys" or even "first among equals."

    By the way, Moyle sued the WBTS and the individual members of the board of the Society (including Rutherford, Knorr, and Franz) for libel based on two WT articles--one of which mentioned him by name and the other described him without mentioning his name. He sued for $100k and was awarded $30k by the jury at trial. On appeal, the court cut the verdict in half, so Moyle only got $15k. He lived about 25 years after the suit, so he had the opportunity to spend the money...after he paid his lawyer, of course!

    It makes me angrier and angrier to hear of unfair treatment of those young brothers. My grandmother can't understand why they leave after only two to six weeks. This is why. She thinks it is because of their conduct and wanting to goof off.

    I just passed 1914 posts and I'm still here. Where is that comet anyway? Where's the CoolAid?

    Ho ho, I'm very sure those jerks were "entitled" to their air conditioning. After all, the filthy slave and their slave-attendants get the best of everything for being Jesus' mouthpiece!!

    Arthur used to special pioneer in the islands using one of the society's two yachts as I recall.

    Does anyone know what happened to these yachts or have any more info about them?

    You don't think this thread is a little petty? hmmm air conditioning ooo how terrible but as I pointed out earlier the pope head of the catholic church besides having a private jet has his own city filled with treasures, i'm betting the popes got air conditioning too ^^

    now what about scientology leaders do they get air conditioning?

    The church's founder, science-fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard, chose Clearwater because it was sunny, close to an airport and near the water. Each year, 15,000 Scientologists from every continent study at the opulent Fort Harrison Hotel, a city landmark that the church secretly purchased under an assumed name in 1975.

    yes inside the luxury hotel ^^

    Can we have a little objectivity here please!

    Thanks for lumping judge rutherford in w the pope and scientology leaders. That is the right classification for him.
