    UR, I will be waiting with bated breath!! I have no access to these things and I can't wait to print them out for my niece. I asked her once if she even knew the history of HER religion. She didn't know anything about Russell. Said my mom told her it wasn't important......

    Thanks so much....

    Every one of Rutherford's books are a hoot. They generally follow a similiar pattern. The first part of the book is spent in a Bible commentary and seems credible. At some point, he gets into types and antitypes and the meaning for our day - very silly stuff. He also spends about 50 pages in many of his books lambasting the Catholic Church. By the way, UR, I have something that might be of interest to you. It is a booklet I put together in 1996, "Shifting Sands of Witness Beliefs." Send me an e-mail, if you are interested in having a copy.

    "The wild beast that you saw was, but is not, and yet is about to ascend out of the abyss, and it is to go off into destruction. And when they see how the wild beast was, but is not, and yet will be present, those who dwell on the earth will wonder admiringly, but their names have not been written upon the scroll of life from the foundation of the world." Revelation 17:8 NWT

    "We cannot but admire the high principles embodied in the proposed League of Nations, formulated undoubtedly by those who have no knowledge of the great plan of God. This fact makes all the more wonderful the ideals which they express. For instance, it has been made plain by President Wilson and the advocates of his ideas that the proposed League of Nations is more than merely a league to enforce peace. They would not have us consider it to exclusively from the standpoint of politics or of military relations. It should be considered as fully from the economic and social points of view. The President's idea seems to be that the League of Nations which he proposes would stand for world service rather than mere world regulation in the military sense, and that the very smallest of nations shall be participants in its every arrangement. In other words, his idea undoubtedly is that the league shall not be established merely for the purpose of promoting peace by threat or coercion; but that its purpose, when put into operation, will be to make all nations of earth one great family, working together for the common benefit in all the avenues of national life. Truly this is idealistic, and approximates in a small way that which God has foretold that he will bring about after this great time of trouble." Watch Tower February 15, 1919 p.51 reprints page 6389

    Francois,

    Is that the April 1972 WT? Are you serious that the article is not on the CD-ROM? Is it on any of the editions? I will be going to my parents house and I can make a photocopy of the article for scanning.

    This is the kind of thing that floors me most... revisionist history. I'd love to go over, find the article, then direct my relatives to look at the CD-ROM.

    Sick.

    Thanx Greven, very kind of you to say friend.

    Stichione, the 1934-year book is a definite goal of mine to actually hold in my hands! That one will be scanned cover to cover.

    Our Beautiful Tatiana, you can start post haste gathering information for your niece. Many from here have written some very thought provoking articles on The WTBS and beliefs peculiar to them. Here are some links.
