The EBOLA conspiracy...

hey guys.

there has been a ton of illuminati hollywood mind control pre-programming about this virus outbreak before it actually happened.

However, the 2014 Ebola outbreak is due to a strain of the virus known as Ebola Zaire and not the EboBun strain for which the CDC patent was obtained Read more at http://www.snopes.com/politics/medical/ebolapatent.asp#0Cq0yztHxdAwxbFK.99

As I said, don't let a little thing like facts get in the way.

The really stupid part is that if the CDC were not working on cures for things like ebola that some people would be claiming that was a conspiracy as well.

Gopher, you may have missed the fact that at no point did I suggest that you were incorrect in saying that the CDC hold a patent over one strain of ebola. I was pointing out that your post erroneously made the suggestion that the two facts were linked in some way.

Perry,

You have been posting here for a long time on this same topic, how can you not understand the basic arguments of the people who disagree with you? Do you not read any of the replies? This stuff has been answered for you many times before.

Do you notice anything about your list, can you not think at all skeptically about what you are presenting as 'evidence'?

Witness My Fury, why don't you explain this then?

Evidence 1 = The U.S. government has a patent on EBOLA

Evidence 2 = There's an EBOLA outbreak in the U.S.

Gopher,

Did you read the link from wannabefree? That will answer your question.

But don't let a little thing like facts get in the way of your paranoia.

Most Jdubs are nice people, not really evil - give us all a break from this

I'm with Daniel, were you an evil person when you were a JW. It's very easy to suggest that other people are evil, the reality is that there are shades of grey. It is very easy to attribute the actions of others to malice and to attribute the actions of ourselves to mistake or misunderstanding. With the right set of circumstances any JW could choose to leave. Whilst I don't deny that individual JWs can do things that are evil that doesn't mean that they all are.

This is a very different topic to the question of the WBTS or the governing body being a force for evil.

the man was moving around in the darkness of j's home with a gun.

he was certain j. and his family weren't there, but he was wrong.

when a door suddenly opened and a dark figure fumbled for the hallway light, he had only a moment to act.

The fetishization of violence on this thread is sickening.

Come on, it is so simple people - Russell used Imperial measurements, but what did the Egyptians use?

okay, russell based his measurements of the pyramid chambers using inches to determine 1914.. however, what if we used egyptian measurements?.

duh!.

Caedes

The egyptians used a system of measure that gradually evolved into the imperial measurements anyway so they used a version of the inch and foot. By the time of the Romans we can see a system that closely matches the imperial system.

Public Talk - Probe to Uranus
by berrygerry in
1. social
2. humour
i'm being deadly serious - many, many years ago, an english (uk) visiting speaker, giving a talk on science and the bible, made the statement:.

"as we speak, there is a probe that is nearing uranus.".

myself and one other brother were just dying trying to control an explosion of laughter.. i so desperately wanted to yell out: "and they're searching for klingons.".

the flood, mammoths, elphants, and food.
by Crazyguy in
1. watchtower
2. bible
my question is since it looks as though mammoths were alive after the flood and we know elephants are then how much food was needed to feed just these four animals for the time they were on the ark.

also was the ark, 500 feet long, big enough to hold the amount of food needed for just these 4 animals.. .

Bohm,

As I said in my reply to Viviane earlier, I accept that my understanding of this is from a certain point of view and I also accept that you are more qualified than I am to weigh in on this subject. As I respect both your contribution and Viviane's I will respectfully bow of this argument and accept that you may be right. I will endeavour to read more on the subject.

Cheers
