Source of Direct Contribution for Rutherford's House, Beth Sarim
by VM44 inthis is a question i have had for over 13 years, since i first found out that rutherford had a house, named beth sarim, built for him in san diego.
where did the money come from for the 100 acres of land the house was situated upon, and for the design and construction of the house?
in the proclaimer's book, it is said that a "direct contribution" was made for the house.

Watchtower Gives Up Explaining 607 BCE Date!
by VM44 inthis is a very important observation, that the watchtower has not tried to explain in print why 607 bce is the year for the destruction of jerusalem for the last 17 years!!!.
all that the watchtower has done over most of the last two decades is to repeat over and over the year "607bce" in its publications as if it is an unquestioned fact!.
the last time an explaination for the year was attempted by the watchtower was in 1988 when the "insight" volumes were published, but since then, no explaination for the validity of the year has appeared in print.. this must mean something, but what?

CT Russell, a Great Pyramid Faker!
by VM44 inin the other thread i started, http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/10/98474/1.ashx, it is shown that charles taze russell obtained measurements critical for his obtaining significant prophetic dates from the great pyramid, such as the year he believed jesus returned (1874), by measuring line figures in a diagram from a book written by pyramid expert dr piazzi smyth!
it is now apparent that russell did more than that!
ct russell actually made up a critical measurement number from the pyramid that he used in his calculation!

Russell got Pyramid measurements from a drawing??!!
by VM44 ini seem to recall reading something that ct russell obtained his pyramid measurements from a drawing of a pyramid using calipers and rulers!!!!!.
now that really wouldn't give the accuracy in values required for prophetic calculations.
by taking measurements from a diagram, one could come up with any numbers one wanted in order to "massage" a calculation to give predetermined end year for a prophecy.. in one of russell's books, the pyramid dimensional measurements were "stretched" (or "shrunked" perhaps) from one edition to another in order to make the calculations come out the desired way.
