If you look on page 10, "What is God's Purpose for the Earth?," you'll see an illustration of Adam in the Garden--with a belly button!! What were the WT artists thinking????
I'd post a scan but, alas, I'm unable to in my present locale.
Anyone Notice this in the New Brochure "Good News From God"?

@cofty: that was an interesting read.
I wonder if JWs really buy that- if they notice at all.

Rip: serious bro? It Adam was a direct creation of God he would have no need of a belly button.

Ok. S2S, I hear you!!! LOL!!! but do the artists know what the angels look like? Or the Garden of Eden, etc.?
It's all artistic license.
But, I get what your saying.
It still doesn't necessarily mean that just because Adam was a direct creation that he wasn't still given a belly button.

I can't believe you just said that.

From the Omphalos controversy (1857):
Of course, the Omphalos argument fell into disrepute with everybody almost immediately. Many just laughed at it, but others were deeply offended by the idea of God being a lying and deceitful prankster who had written an enormous and superfluous lie in the rocks.But even worse for many believers was the thought that the events of the Bible, most
importantly the Resurrection, might have never happened and so their faith might be
based solely on a Divine Hoax.Hmmm, imagine that?
