We may have interbred with Neanderthals earlier than previously thought.
by cappytan init is now thought that we have been interbreeding with neanderthals as early as 100,000 years ago.. http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-35595661.
craziest thing i just realized: some women still breed with neanderthals up to this day.
rihanna and chris brown anyone?.

I've heard that Latino broadcasts can be graphic. That scene of a charred body would not do go well here in the U.S.. -

Superstitious people
by biblexaminer inthe world is filled with superstitious people.
and some of the most superstitious are jehovah's witnesses.. remember, i didn't say they alone are the most superstitious, nor did i say they are on an island.
how do we know that this is true?

When Did Higher Education Become Taboo?
by Wild_Thing ini have been reading about the early history of russelites/jws and in the beginning, it seems the organization was formed and headed by quite a few educated people.
lawyers, doctors, businessman.
you could buy voting rights within the organization for $1000, which by today's standard would be somewhere between $15,000 and $20,000, something most of us do not have on hand, unless you are highly educated and/or wealthy.

If their anti-higher education stand didn't exist during Russell's tenure then it definitely must have come during Rutherford's. The main motivation would have been to have the young generation pioneer indefinitely. Remember the book Children where two youths in love forego marriage? They would have foregone an education based on their same logic. -

Are you an agronomist or a farmer? If so, I need your help. Related to Miracle Wheat
by ILoveTTATT2 ini am doing some investigation on the miracle wheat episode, and i have a question that i don't know the answer to, and i can't find the answer online.. it seems that, from what i have learnt online, that wheat is a self-pollinating, "perfect flower".
this means that once there is a strain that has a quality that's desirable, all you have to do is plant it, and that feature will remain "forever".
essentially the new plants are all clones.given that information, this statement by penton does not make sense:.

"...It soon lost its outstanding vitality..."
That is probably a reference to the fact that the wheat would not keep it's attributes after a 2nd generation.

I wonder what would happen if those in a similar position were to simply say no to the Watchtower. Mass disfellowshipping? -

How many killed by the 5 Cholera pandemics during the 1800's?
by redpilltwice inyou all know jwfacts (run by paul grundy).
on this website, under “did the last days start 1914” ---> “pestilence”, it says:“during the 1800's five cholera pandemics killed around 100 million people.” .
there is no link to any source of info, so i emailed paul and asked where i can verify that total number?
-
Village Idiot
I remember reading about the Cholera pandemics, with those figures, in one of the "apostate" books. I think, If I'm not mistaken, that it was Sign Of The Last Days - When? by Carl O. Jonsson, If you don't have that book it's highly recommended that you get it; it's a treasure trove of information tailored to rebut the Watchtower.
The book included primary sources in the footnotes which might help you to track the original book that made the statement.

Most JWs won't even miss it or know that it was there to begin with. Only the intellectually minded would have bothered to have read it.
