    Dear Brothers

    After some struggling with trying to make the Bible's account of creation square with the physical evidence presented by science I was so pleased to recieve the latest Awake magazine (March 2014) via jw.org with it's lead article "The Untold Story of Creation".

    Your detailed article provided vast amounts of credible and scientifically based evidence that counters even the most determined of evolutionists. This article shall be an absolute blessing in the ministry and shall no doubt be instrumental in changing the minds of countless ones we meet.

    The material is certainly new, detailed and clearly presents more than compeling evidence of as yet unknown arguments and evidence for creation that are irrefutable. Your timeline of creation presents perhaps the clearest case for the biblical account ever published. It makes me so happy that we are not creationists like all those misguided ones who promote the ridiculous notion of Young Earth Creationism. I am so glad as well that you did not seek to put Jehovah's organisation in the same camp as "Old Earth Creationists".

    Our view is clearly poles apart from any other interpretation out there and proves we are the one true organisation, spirit directed by Jehovah alone.

    Thank you dear Brothers for this food at the proper time. I am so happified.

    Warmest Christian love,

    Brother Gullible.

    Dear Brother Gullible,

    We are delighted that you appreciate the spiritual food dispensed by the Faithful Slave, of course the best way to show this is by handing over wads of cash.

    Sincerely

    F.D.S

    I just posted on this k99, great minds etc, I wondered if it is the first sign of some future acceptance of evolution.

    Obviously such a change would have to be introduced over many years.

    Just wondering.

    Wow. The universe 'splained in 4 pages, these guys are freaking Genius!

    Love the explanation of who created God.

    God’s existence is not limited
    by time. He has always existed
    and will always exist. Hence, no
    one created him.

    "God’s existence is not limited
    by time. He has always existed
    and will always exist. Hence, no
    one created him."

    It's pretty easy to correct a little misunderstanding.

    "The universe's and life's existence is not limited
    by time. These have always existed
    and will always exist. Hence, no
    imaginary being in some other dimension is required."

    I think that makes far more sense.

    Yes quellycatface, that is why I have several crates of old B&W material in the attic. I don't know why, but it seems to burn better than the stuff in color. Probably just less moisture content. So, it wasn't a total loss... Actually, it was. I am always happy to hear about people escaping while still young. Let's go you young lurkers - push the 'on' button.

    In Germany they translated "The untold story of creation" as "Creation - What many people don't know". Well, there is a reason why many people don't know that crap.

    Hi George,

    I can't see the WTS moving to an acceptance of evolution since this would completely undermine basic doctrines about the development of man and the interpretaton of the Bible and it's timelines.

    Articles like this and the appeal to emotion made through the "Was it Designed" series are as far as the WTS wish to go on a regular basis. I know they have the two current brochures on creation v evolution but even these are not exactly pushed.

    They want evolution to be one of those subjects that new ones only are exposed to once they have bought into other core teachings so that it is cognative dissonance that makes it all acceptable.

    Views on disfellowshipping, blood and the evolution are just three things that I don't think can ever be changed much beyond the current position as they cannot risk the upset to the apple cart.
