FAITH AND INFIDELITY
CO SXS EDITOR ol> TTnt EEESS. Sir, —We are now living in the lavt flays of a selfish, cruel, blasphemous totalitarian rule, ■which is drenching the earth with blood.- Judge Ruther* ' ford gives the facts and spiritual proof: . ahjd all those who have" faith can believe it or leave it Two weeks of deep " I thought and meditation on the "Watch /-- Tower" in a Christmas camp prevented - my reading the letters in "The Press". and dealing with the scornful, deroga- . tory remarks of "Catholic Truthj" re- " fleeting on the prophetic utterances of Judge Rutherford and others because they predicted 1939 as a year of peace. Such criticism I regard as trivial and' irrelevant. Bible history shows that incorrectness has never been -regarded' as a fatal disqualification for a prophet." In the science of political economy, political prophets from Adam Smith "to " Stuart Mill have mostly been wrong. Yet all their profound predictions about the future benefits of the British industrial system are still in the text books and preached from university platforms.—Yours, etc, WATCH TOWJER TRUTH. January 1, 1940.
