    Since the term "this generation" evidently means "two generations" I think we should have our discussion of things that are evidently true. No need to limit it to the bible, but I'll start off with one.

    1 Tim. 3 "2Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of but one wife" evidently means everybody else can have as many wives as they want.

    The politician said he was not going to tax people unless they are rich. Since you are being taxed, evidently, you are rich.

    I'm tired, I'm sure you guys can come up with better ones.

    since i am being taxed,,,,i evidently must be rich,,,so then the society must evidently be poor because they are not taxed...

    Evidentally, the overseer must be married.

    Since I'm a man and Anne Hathaway only dates men...

    evidently I have a real shot with her .

    (If something is so evident to the JW magazine writers, why didn't they figure it out before? )

    Since the generation explanation is constantly changing, the governing body is evidently confused.

    "Spirit-directed" can evidently mean "directed by an evil spirit" since the Governing Body has been wrong so many times.

    Since holding on to "old truth" can result in disfellowshipping for apostasy because of not accepting "new truth" evidently any truth can also be a lie.

    That was a worry. My keyboard wouldn't co-operate. What I had typed was:

    My keyboard is misbehaving. I hope a restart will fix it.

    I notice that there is only one 'evidently' in the lowest 'bait' publications, and the frequency increases with the level of indoctrination.

    I don't think any of my family members have ever noticed the insertion of the word in any Watchtower litterababble.
