It's basically a side effect of standing tall - compared to if humans walked on all-fours.
Anyway we need more videos on this thread
The second one below is quite medical but seems very though in its discussion

Animals were created without needing Toilet Paper ... but not Man ... Why???
by RubaDub inmy dog and other pets do their "business" and run away and are happy.. man does not have that luxury.
any thoughts on why animals were created with the "poop and go" capacity while man has to go through more steps?
was this perhaps an additional issue that god added on when adam and eve sinned (such as eve having significant more birth pains)?

There's also this from 2007....
It was the annual WT study article that was based on the Year's Text for 2008.
It dealt with the Isrealites crossing the Red Sea - note in particular pragraphs 15 and 16

“Stand Firm and See the Salvation of Jehovah”
What else can we learn from Israel’s Exodus from Egypt? That we must obey Jehovah no matter what he asks us to do.....
Today, it is so important that we follow the guidance that comes to us through “the faithful and discreet slave”!....
Remember, too, that Jehovah diverted the Israelites into a position where they appeared to be trapped between the mountains on the one side and the Red Sea on the other. It just did not seem to be the right move. But Jehovah had everything in hand, and all worked out to his praise and to the salvation of his people. Today, we may not clearly see why some organizational matters are handled in a certain way, but we have every reason to trust in Jehovah’s guidance through his faithful channel of communication.

Seven Shepherds, Eight Dukes — What They Mean for Us Today
17 Elders who are reading this article can draw some useful conclusions from the account we have just considered: (1) The most practical step that we can take to prepare for the coming attack of “the Assyrian” is that of strengthening our faith in God and helping our brothers to do the same. (2) When “the Assyrian” attacks, the elders must be absolutely convinced that Jehovah will deliver us. (3) At that time, the life-saving direction that we receive from Jehovah’s organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint. All of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not. (4) Now is the time for any who may be putting their trust in secular education, material things, or human institutions to adjust their thinking. The elders must stand ready to help any who may now be wavering in their faith.

JW Literature Trolleys Don't Carry the Book Of Mormon

Hey Wayward!
And there weren't any Bibles out. Maybe they were under the counter?
Probably....
Bibles are basically for use only if asked for and interest shown - otherwise I suppose if they were displayed a lot of poeple would just take it - after all a free bible is a free bible in their view probably.
Also I think they're directed NOT to accept any monetary contributions / donations for items they give out on the cart / public display witnessing.

Hey alanv!
That sounds like a heck of a lot of money just for a hall
haha - firstly that's probably AUS dollars? - so just under $2 million US dollars I believe?
also, they weren't buying it for the Hall, but the land....
12,500 square feet of Zone R2 low density residential land
See the photo below - if they can build the same as what's surrounding it, looks like around 10 detached houses could fit on the KH and parking land??
Example nearby house currently for sale for a little under half-a-million US dollars: http://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-nsw-berkeley-122439662

Hey Hecce!
Thanks, nothing new under this sun here.
I think the previous article doesn't mention the 30 million $$$$$ involved.
Yeah, and considering how wikipedia can be freely edited, I linked to the previous thread here from nine years ago to show that the $30 million figure was being used and quoted back then, much nearer to when the events described took place.
Here's the updated link to the article that the previous thread from nine years ago linked to:

Formatting issues
by bikerchic inhow do i turn off the formatting when i use the quote button?.
when i want to start a new paragraph and can't get out of the quote section?.
that made it worse, help!

Hey bikerchic!
Like this?
When I want to start a new paragraph and can't get out of the quote section?
My first 'easy peasy' tip to try out is this -
When you start a new comment, and before you type anything or paste anything...
Use the return key / carriage return about ten or so times to go down the page
Then use the cursor keys to go back to top and start typing and pasting
This means if you get into a problem or situation such as you describe - you simply escape it by using the down cursor keys to move on to the blank lines you made earlier.
(and don't worry about deleting any unused extra lines at the bottom of your comment / post before you submit it - I understand that Simon's forum software automatically removes any 'spare' blank lines)
