According to the Brahma Kumari "elite" of the so called Godly World Spiritual University, time is only 5,000 years old and for the first 2,500 years reproduction happened by the power of the mind.
Meanwhile, archeologists find evidence of the earliest act of copulation (380m years ago), so far ...
"Impossible!", cry the BKs. "All carbon dating is false due to the destruction of nuclear power stations 2,500 years ago". "It must have happened after than, after Lekhraj Kirpalani led the world into lust as the first man (... presumably having the first boner)".
Yes, this is really what the BKs teach and speculate upon, although they usually don't go into specific detail, just claim their founder what the one who caused 'The Fall' and became 'the most impure' at the end of The Cycle.
Meanwhile, bugs, insects, micro-organisms don't even seem to fit within their version of evolution. Were the Golden Ages really able to procreate by the power of their minds and not "cumbersome sexual organs"? Or did they only grow them after The Fall, 2,500 years ago, genes contaminated by radioactive waste!?! Is the same true of human beings too!?! Don't bother asking your Brahma Kumari center-in-charge ... they don't know either!

The first act of copulation has been traced back to ancient animals that were endowed with such cumbersome sexual organs they had to mate side by side.
Fossilised features of antiarch fish suggest that early intercourse was not the smoothest of affairs, with males faced with the task of steering their bony L-shaped organs between twin genital plates that adorned the females like tiny cheese graters.
The male’s organ was nearly as long as his body and fixed rigid, leading paleontologists to finally work out that the creature’s small, jointed arm-like appendages were probably of help in achieving the correct position.“Fundamentally, they could not have done it in the missionary position,” said John Long, professor of palaeontology at Flinders University in Adelaide. “The very first act of copulation was done sideways, square-dance style.”
Antiarchs are primitive forms of jawed fish called placoderms that lived in lakes more than 380m years ago. They are known from fossils, only a few centimetres long, dug up in China, Estonia and Orkney in Scotland.
Like so many in science, the latest discovery came about by chance. Last year, Long was working in a palaeontologist’s laboratory in Tallinn, Estonia, when he was handed a box of placoderm bones. Among them he found a plate with a strange, grooved bone attached. He had studied placoderms all his life but was at a loss to explain what it was. Later that day, the penny dropped: “It was a clasper, a sex organ, and it was the oldest and the most primitive one yet found on the planet,” he said.
