The role of the "firstborn Son" as the Creator?

  The Watchtower of 1 April 1978 (page 16), tells me:

  "Through [the firstborn Son], Jehovah God brought into existence millions of angelic sons, the vast universe with its billions of galaxies and the earth with its abundant variety of plant and creature life."

  Is the WT telling me that the "firstborn Son" created black holes, dying stars, poisonous atmospheres, uninhabitable planets, comets that crash into planets, dangerous rays from the sun, and life-threatening places on earth?

  Did the "firstborn Son" create these billions of galaxies out of nothing?

  How did He travel from one galaxy out into uninhabited space where He could manufacture another galaxy out of nothing?

  What's more difficult to comprehend, the myth of the creationists or the theory of the evolutionists (I hope the Wt knows what the word "theory" means in scientific parlance).

  Not sure what your point is here but, what i would like to know is- who was the "woman" who gave "birth" to the "first born son"???? and who married her to Joho before they... created him? did they have any "daughters" together? who was their nanny while they were busy making creating the "other" million or so "angel babies"??????

  I apologize for my stupidity- woman were just an after thought in revealed religion and to Joho. A 'good' little wifey helper to bring forth children and to do the manual labor so Adamus can enjoy paradise while kissing Joho's ass feet. ( is it any wonder Eve poisoned Adam and herself- dont let the book fool you into thinking she believed that talking snake- she wanted Adam's lasy ass gone and offing herself was just the price she paid to finally get some rest!)

  Hi,

  No problems. Sorry my intent is not clear to you, I take the blame for that.

  Regarding YHWH's wife (and I think that earlier she "belonged" to EL, but someone else can verify that for us), look at the www (and in your OT) for the name: Asherah.

  You could also try searching ("googling") for:

  Asherah YHWH

  Thankyou Doug. I do appologise for my slightly "warped" sense of humor in my first post (I like to approch most things with my humour intact), I respect you, your work and research. TY again for the name and yes i will be busy 'googling'.

  Lillith.

  I think the JWs leaders' idea of God creating through Michael is like God healing
  through an apostle, not that the apostle has any special ability but as a sign
  that the apostle was sent by God or, in this case, that the Son was special to
  God. I don't think the Son would have to go anywhere or do anything while it
  happened, but if they think he did, it would be incredibly unneccesarily
  tedious. I think it's more like the Lincoln Tunnel.
