Few if any JWs know that Rutherford always referred to ALL religion as being bad (from the Devil).
The concept of a "true religion" was a later invention (scam) by Watchtower Lawyer and Vice President Hayden C Covington (in the early 1950's).
It was a detailed and "brilliant" scam which has completely blindsided the entire mighty US legal system down to this day...

Damn, I'm sure glad we could clear this up. All along I thought they meant a percussion instrument and a ball manipulation device (sounds more or less like my ex wife).

Back when Rutherfraud said this, JWs were considered a 'sect' and not a 'religion'.
My Mom was crystal clear with me on this fact.
