We Do Not Weep

While the followers of Judge"
Rutherford will no doubt sincerely
lament his death, the general pub
lie is not disposed to shed any
tears of regret. He was too med
dlesome and vituperative to be ap-
preciated outside of the fanatical
faithful who formed his Jeho-
vahs Witnesses" Rutherford was
nationally known, but he made
himself known by making null
sance of himself and his associates.
He always stood in the limelight,
but he stood there not because an
appreciative public wanted him
there, but because he enjoyed be-
ing there and employed every de-
wise known to the publicity-seeker
to keep himself in the public gaze
The religious" movement which
Judge" Rutherford led derived
much of its motive power from his
own vigorous and irrepressible
personality. AS result, the move
ment is apt to recoil perceptibly
from the impact of his demise.
However, it is likely to live on, at
least for the time. Very few reli-
gious movements are so closely
identified with the personality of
their founders as to be unable to
survive when their founders pass
out of the picture. Whether Jeho-
vah's Witnesses stand or fall, now
that Rutherford is dead, will de-
pend upon the kind of religious ap-
peal to be found in it's teachings.
The teachings of the Jehovah's
Witnesses are such they readily
disintegrate. Any movement, reli-
gious or otherwise, to exert any
lasting influence over the lives of
people, must have at least a few
sane constructive ideas. However,
those of the Jehovah's Witnesses
are destructive. The tracts with
which Rutherford's following de-
luged the country are quite de-
void of constructive religious
thought, but reek with abuse and
Islander of all the older organized
religions. Though his belief had
some of the outward semblances
that usually characterize a reli-
gious belief, Rutherford never con-
sidered his "belief" a religion. In
many respects he was more correct
than he himself realized. For if
anything in recent years tended
to destroy the respect of the pub
lie for religion in general, it was
the Psuedo-religion Rutherford and
his fanatical satellites tried to
foist upon the American public.
The Jehovah's Witnesses try
