What's really interesting is that they also released something called a "Kingdom Interlinear" version that has the original language with a translation on one side, and the NWT version on the other side, which shows a number of areas where the NWT diverges from the original. Almost as if they knew that the members wouldn't bother to notice, or wouldn't dare bring up the discrepancy if they did notice. That, or it's one of the most amazing examples of a lack of self-awareness that I've ever seen.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
