The Golden Age, “Health”

13. November 1929 · pp.106-107 (the sentence on p. 107) · H. W. Newcomb · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society (Golden Age Publishing)

“Avoid serum inoculations and vaccinations, as they pollute the blood stream with their filthy pus.”

A signed contribution by H. W. Newcomb, beginning on page 106 and listed in the issue contents under “Science and Invention”. The Golden Age was a general-interest magazine that carried signed articles by outside contributors alongside its own editorial matter, so this sentence is the contributor’s, not a statement of the organisation’s position. Four lines above it in the same contents list is an item advising readers to avoid aluminium cooking utensils.

Hinweis zu Herkunft und Überprüfung

Hinweis zur Vertrauensangabe. Scan opened; the sentence is on printed page 107, whose own running head reads "NOVEMBER 13, 1929 - THE GOLDEN AGE - 107". The by-line was confirmed from the article heading on page 106 and the issue contents list.

Herkunft des Scans. Internet Archive item 'golden-age-1929' (OCR text searched).

Notes. Two common miscitations: the sentence is often given as The Golden Age of 1 May 1929 p. 502, which is the wrong issue; and it is usually quoted without "and vaccinations", which is in the printed text. It is also commonly presented as the magazine's own voice when it carries a by-line.

The Golden Age, “Death by the Serum Route”

17. April 1929 · pp.467-468 · Herbert M. Shelton · Woodworth, Knorr & Martin (The Golden Age), Brooklyn, New York

“I am fully convinced that the practice of medicine in all its branches is the biggest cause of disease, degeneracy and death in modern life.”

A signed article by Herbert M. Shelton, an American natural hygienist and prolific anti-vaccination writer who was not a Bible Student. It opens with a newspaper report of a ten-year-old girl who died after a scarlet fever inoculation and argues that antitoxin 'is a mere hypothesis' that 'can not be demonstrated to actually exist'.

The Golden Age, “If the People Ever Wake Up”

6. Februar 1929 · p.301 · Woodworth, Knorr & Martin (The Golden Age), Brooklyn, New York

“If the people ever wake up and come to the conclusion that the true way to health is by route of proper food, fresh air, pure water, healthful exercise, honest occupation, correct thinking and, above all, a knowledge and reverence of Jehovah, and not by the route of drugs and serums, it is surely going to bring some needed lessons to many persons now in the medical business.”

An unsigned item printed under the magazine's 'Home and Health' heading, defending a New Hampshire father jailed for refusing to have his son vaccinated. It ends: 'Just now the M.D.'s are drunk with power, drunk and swaying.'

The Golden Age, “Some Ideas on Health”

15. Januar 1936 · pp.227-228 · Golden Age Publishing Company, Brooklyn, New York

“In the past it has published numerous health articles from various sources where the writers seemed to know what they were talking about. These articles have not always been consistent with one another; which is not to be wondered at, because no two health experts agree.”

The magazine's own summing-up of its health content, opening the issue. It goes on: 'This is about all The Golden Age knows on the subject of health. It has no ambition to be known as a health magazine ... The Golden Age claims no monopoly of wisdom on the subject.' It also says 'Surgery is sometimes essential, but before submitting to the knife try the prescriptions above given', repeats that Jesus's fish 'certainly was not fried in an aluminum frying pan', and calls it 'nonsense to say that mankind must have 1,200 kinds of poison scratched into his arm to keep him well'.

Hinweis zu Herkunft und Überprüfung

Hinweis zur Vertrauensangabe. Read in the OCR text layer of the archive.org scan on 19 September 2026 on the leaves mapped to printed pages 226-228; the contents page (printed page 226) lists 'Some Ideas on Health ... 227', the leaf mapped to page 228 carries the running head '228 The Golden Age Brooklyn, N.Y.' and the leaves mapped to pages 229 and 231 carry running heads reading 'January 15, 1936'. The two-column OCR on page 227 is badly interleaved. The quoted sentence, and the phrases 'no ambition to be known as a health magazine', 'claims no monopoly of wisdom on the subject' and 'Surgery is sometimes essential, but before submitting to the knife try the prescriptions above given', were each read as an unbroken run of text. The sentence about 1,200 kinds of poison was not: it survives only as two overlapping partial renderings of the same interleaved column, which agree with each other, and is recorded on that basis.

Herkunft des Scans. Internet Archive item '1936-1937TheGoldenAgeMagazine', uploaded by [email protected] to the 'faithmagazines' collection and marked public domain. Page numbers from the item's _djvu.xml leaf mapping joined to _page_numbers.json, cross-checked against the running heads reading 'January 15, 1936' on the following leaves.

Notes. The nearest thing found to a retrospective statement on the magazine's health content. It withdraws no specific claim, names no error and does not mention the aluminium campaign; it says only that the articles came from various sources and were not always consistent.
