New hominid Species Discovered in South Africa
by cofty inhomo naledi has been added to our family tree but exactly where, is still to be discovered.
read more here.... over 1500 fossils making up 15 separate individuals have been discovered in a cave near johannesburg.
here are a few highlights of it's anatomy.... the skull was globular, like a member of our genus but the brain was small and primitive.

What's exciting about this finding is that the anti evolution camp has said if we had evolved there should be a missing link, skeletal remains of something between an ape and a human. Of course now that there is such a thing they won't believe it. -

We probably are still evolving, but the changes are so small they are probably not enough to notice in only a few thousand years.

I lived in Colorado for ten years. Magwitch, Pearl street was my favorite place to go on Colorado, it's true the good times never end. Street performers, unique shops, interesting restaurants, vintage buildings, all with the beautiful mountains as a backdrop. I lived in Castle Rock, moved away six years ago. -

Are you angry for having been a JW?
by Half banana ini remember seeing the ex-jws parading around outside the assembly like lepers holding placards of hate.
we were the righteous and enlightened ones... and they were lost in outer darkness.
just dont look at them was the standard response to their unwelcome presence..

I have been out fifteen years. I was angry when I found out how much of what I believed was lies, but I am over it. I don't want anger to define my life, so I make a conscious decision to focus on the good in my life and not dwell in the past. I let the Watchtower limit me for 30 years, I refuse to let it limit me now. -

The Greatest Paradox
by Perry innow that i have been a born again christian for 10 years, i see things that just boggles my mind.
like this: we all spent untold hours in the field service telling people (mostly christians) about the paradise earth.
that was the reason we were at their door.

It's all just pie in the sky, so what difference does it make if the pie is cherry or apple? -

It's tragic that people keep putting their heads in the sand. Instead of taking rational steps now that would be relatively painless, they will wait until its too late and changes will be hard, painful and expensive.l, and posdiblyvtoo late.
It's like failing to fix your roof, even though the roofer said it leaks, becayse you don't feel like,spending $5,000 right now and your neighbor thinks it looks fine, so you wait until the rains come and spend $25,00 fixing water damage and a new roof.

EPA CLIMATE CHANGE FACTS
The major scientific agencies of the United States — including the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) — agree that climate change is occurring and that humans are contributing to it. In 2010, the National Research Council concluded that "Climate change is occurring, is very likely caused by human activities, and poses significant risks for a broad range of human and natural systems". [1] Many independent scientific organizations have released similar statements, both in the United States and abroad. This doesn't necessarily mean that every scientist sees eye to eye on each component of the climate change problem, but broad agreement exists that climate change is happening and is primarily caused by excess greenhouse gases from human activities

That's like people who say we don't have global warming because there have been horrible snow storms in some areas. But warmer water means more evaporation, more moisture in the air then hits cold air masses from the north, so worse snow storms.
I don't know why people can't just accept what 99% of scientists in the relevant fields say about it, that global warming is real, it's man-made and we need to do something.
Denial ain't just a river in Egypt.

Just two weeks in our new home and the knock at the door happens!!
by truthseekeriam injust relaxing with my morning coffee enjoying looking at the pictures fipper shared of the camping trip when the dreaded knock came.
of course the dogs beat me to the door followed by my daughter trying to catch them, she looks through the giant peep hole and waves me away saying "its them.
" i almost just walked away from the door when i saw the sweet face of a 5/6 year old little boy with his mom and dad and couldn't resist talking to them.. i opened the door and smiled and said jehovah's witnesses?

Good for you for taking back your power and not answering the door. You specifically asked them not to have the elders come, how dare they show up at your door? I had the same thing happen, I gave them a piece of my mind. I also asked to be put on the do not call list, good luck with that, half the time they knock any way, they seem incapable of consistency following directions. Telling them I am an apostate and giving them a thorough reverse witness didn't help either.
The "come back to Jehovah" thing always annoys me. They do not own Jehovah, they just think they do. You may or may not have left Jehovah depending on whether you still believe in him. What if you just decided they had left Jehovah because they protect pedophiles? Who are they to say they know better than you? I know she means well, but it's obnoxious.

I wasn't calling anyone on here a left wing nut. Was genuinely asking as the only other place I heard this was on Facebook from a extreme radical leftist who happens to routinely share false information in the form of memes.
i question everything. Excuse me if my asking for sources stepped on any sensitive toes.I don't know why it was deleted. I had posted a meme about Kim's marriages on another thread, but I didn't really think your comment was directed at me, and it wouldn't have bothered me if it had been. It's funny because your comment made me realize I hadn't actually checked before posting to be sure the info about her many marriages was factual. Posting things without checking sources is something I criticize others for, but I didn't do it this time. Fortunately it was factual in this case, but it's always better to check.
You are right to question everything and my toes are just fine.
