Unicorns may not be ridiculous after all.
Yes JW s did print and use the KJV Bible for years.
Now we use better translations based on better manuscripts that state the truth more clearly.
Although we still use the KJV, we do not restrict our studies to just one out of date Bible.
Bible translation has progressed with the discovery of older more accurate texts.

God's purpose is being revealed slowly over a long period of time.
Should not our understanding of His purpose progress also?
Do you think Adam and Eve understood Ge 3:15?
Do you think John understood what his vision at Re 17:1-6 meant?
God's will is revealed slowly so imperfect man can digest it.
He is a loving Heavenly Father teaching His children slowly, step by step.
