funny how they quote Russell saying " we have not the gift of prophecy " but they dont quote Rutherford saying that they gods words not mans. Didnt rutherford basically reject everything Russell ever taught anyway? Of course he had to after his 1925 abomination didnt he... I guess he rejected Russells non-prophet jibberish too!!The Watchtower is not the instrument of any man or any set of men, nor is it published according to the whims of men. No man's opinion is expressed in The Watchtower. (The Watchtower, 1931 November 1 p.327)No man's opinion? Then on whose authority do they speak?
Where have WTS clamed to NEVER have spoken in Jehovahs name?

"The brothers preparing these publications are not infallible. Their writings are not inspired as are those of Paul and the other Bible writers. (2 Tim. 3:16)
In other words...
"We are not infallible. We make mistakes. But if you disagree with us, you will be expelled since you are obligated to believe our mistakes, since we are God's uninspired, fallible, non-human, sole channel that God is using on the earth today even though he just can't seem to get the message right after 130 years. Got it?"
Yep. [gulp] Got it. I'm outtahere!

Should say:
