In another thread the question of a person's memories being placed within a re-created body has been discussed.
The possibility was raised that what if two bodies were created, and the person's memories were placed in both bodies? Which re-created person would be the continuation of the original person?
AlmostAtheist (Dave) made the point that The Watchtower would most likely answer by saying Jehovah would allow such a situation, that is, allow two bodies to exist at the same time that both contain the memories of the same individual.
That being so, what about during the time just before Jesus came to earth, when Jehovah transferred the memories of Michael the Archangel to the egg in Mary's womb? The egg that would develop and latter be born as Jesus the child?
Michael's memories would have been in TWO different bodies at the same time!!! Yes, one body would have been physical, the other spiritual, but the point is, which one would have been considered the individual Michael the Archangel/Jesus?
But Jehovah could not allow this to be, an individual can only have one body at any one time. What does this imply? Simply this, after the memories of the Archangel were place in the developing embryo that would become Jesus, Jehovah had to DESTROY the spiritual body of Michael! And furthermore, just because memories are placed in another body, does not mean the memories of the ORIGINAL body are destroyed! So the spiritual body of Michael could very well still have possessed all of it's memories!
The conclusion is that Jehovah had to kill or destroy Jesus while he was in heaven, before he could send him to earth.
The implications of this are profound! Far beyond anything The Watcthower would, or could, handle in its publications!
