And here is the article:
What the Bible Tells Us
https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/awake-no3-2021-nov-dec/what-the-bible-tells-us-about-creator/
And here is a quote:
The Bible does not say that all life on earth was created in six 24-hour days. Rather, it uses the word “day” to refer to periods of time. For example, it states that the creation of our planet and life on it—during the six creative “days” spoken of in Genesis chapter 1—occurred in the period of time called “the day that Jehovah * God made earth and heaven.” (Genesis 2:4) So each of the six creative “days” during which God prepared the earth for life and created life on it could represent extremely long periods of time.
In other words, the JW's are either Day-Age or at least want to keep the door open to that.
Just like Fr. Fulcran Vigouroux, a Sulpician priest from Paris, was Day-Age and as a kind of judge in the Biblical Commission of Pope St. Pius X kept the door open to Day-Age.
So, by being Young Earth Creationist, I am not using the leeway Fr. Fulcran wanted to give me, but I am most definitely not a dupe of the JW's.
Some people who are more into the details of what scientists say than they are and who even so want to use that leeway, might end up agreeing far less with Fr. Fulcran than they do.
He did after all, in his intro to the OT (a few decades before he issued the judgement) consider that the six age long days ended with the creation of Adam and that since then the Biblical chronology according to the LXX is correct. By contrast, some Trads or at least Sedes here in Paris see no problem in promoting a book in which the "Indo-European Race" was derived from men clustering far North during the Güntz glaciation.
