The Creation of Genesis Chapter 2ff
by Doug Mason in
1. watchtower
2. bible
i had long held the piece of the jigsaw puzzle which starts at genesis 2:4b – the yahwist’s creation story.

i knew that its authors had never heard of lamarck’s theory of evolution, nor had they read darwin’s “origin of species”.

the authors were addressing their own immediate culture, so i had to transport my mind to their times.

why did jesus supposedly cast the demons into a herd of pigs?.

and, how were there so many demons inside one man, that when "released" by jesus, it took a whole pack of pigs to contain them??.

10 Graphs that show that the Watchtower is in trouble in Mexico
by ILoveTTATT2 in

mexico is by far the country where the witnesses have had the most success in the entire world.

almost any statistic except the total amount of witnesses shows that mexico is where the witnesses have had the wildest success in the world.proportional to population, the witnesses in mexico are double, or nearly triple, what they are in the us or brazil.but there is "trouble in paradise".

if mexico falls, pretty much the whole watchtower falls.which is why it is so important to have jwfacts translated to spanish.i made an analysis and things are looking bad in mexico... if trends continue, mexico will become just like the 1st-world countries.here is the first graph:maximum publisher % increase:.
