Yes. It is interesting that the creation record does not mention angels. Also there seems to be some aftermath upon chaosbattle going on. There was creation before. Genesis 1 concerns with what the ancestors of ancient Israel could see with their eyes.
I saw a meme about all the historical white people that got blackwashed, even a German Hitler era general. I laughed hysterically. Considerably more funny that the sad statistics about black on white crime in the US.
simple.. you cannot find the word there (or many of the comical variations such as: a triune godhead, the triunity, co-equal god beings, godhead, a hypostaic union, divine essences, divine natures, a god-the-son, a god-the-ghost, hypostasis, homoousios, perichoresis , a godman, omnipresence, incarnation, a god who is a sacred mystery, a god 'in three persons', dual natures, a reincarnate god, a first person of the trinity, a second person of the trinity, a third person of the trinity, godness, a tri-unity or a multipersonal god), or any of the so-mentioned aspects.. jehovah identified himself (not 'themselves") as on one god, as did jesus and all the prophets.

so, come, let us know of the simple twists of the clergy!.
waton, to the ancient mind, the earth hangs on nothing. Nothing tangible nor the arm of a god. So if we dont force modern science concept on the ancient text, it is true indeed.
On one level it is funny, that ex JWs whine so much about the doctrine about Jehovah slaughtering the non JWs at Armageddon considering Evangelicals teach that those who die without faith in the trinity get eternal punishment. On the other hand it can not the match the fun of the combo of that Armageddon doctrine and the idea of all the ignorant billions being raised minus those that refused JW and some other baddies. It is clearly a seriously half assed solution from the hand of Rutherford that took Russell's second chance / one real chance theology and added some later day Evangelical doctrine seeing himself as the judge in Matthew 25. You could be cynical and say that people that follow such an idiotic doctrine deserves what comes to them.

I pity those without faith, because man cant live of "bread" alone. But I also think many ex JWs mistake faith in God and a Bible they never understood (cause they were never taught it) with their faith in the JW story and JW org. Then they end up sour. Sadly utter rubbish such as Jesus never existed or was a copy of some other god, stuff almost any scholar rejects, is mixed up with a rejection of the basics of evolution although the Bible never adresses the issues of evolution, pro or contra.
