The Winged Sun Disk
The Winged Sun Disk Symbol
Fritz Springmeier (FS) makes quite a few assertions concerning Russell and sun worship. His statements appear not to be based on anything Russell said, but rather in the usage of the winged-sun-disk symbol that appeared on the cover of the Studies in the Scriptures, and the usage of the rising sun in a picture in earlier issues of the Watch Tower. It is further claimed that these symbols are a Masonic symbols, and are offered as proof that Russell was a member of the Mason’s Society.
