The eyes really are a window to the soul, according to scientists.
Patterns in the iris can give an indication of whether we are warm and trusting or neurotic and impulsive, research has found.
Everyone has a different structure of lines, dots and colours in their iris.
So scientists at Orebro University in Sweden compared the eyes of 428 subjects with their personality traits to see if these structures in the iris reflected their characters.
They focused on patterns in crypts - threads which radiate from the pupil - and contraction furrows - lines curving around the outer edge - which are formed when the pupils dilate.
Their findings showed those with denselypacked crypts are more warmhearted, tender, trusting, and likely to sympathise with others. In comparison, those with more contraction furrows were more neurotic, impulsive and likely to give way to cravings.
The researchers argued that eye structure and personality could be linked because the genes responsible for the development of the
iris also play a role in shaping part of the frontal lobe of the brain, which influences personality.
They say the findings could one day be used in psychoanalysis and by companies screening candidates for jobs.
The results will be published in the American journal Biological Psychology. 'Our results suggest people with different iris features tend to develop along different personality lines,' said Matt Larsson, a behavioural scientist who led the study at Orebro University.'These findings support the notion that people with different iris configurations tend to develop along different trajectories in regards to personality.
'Differences in the iris can be used as a biomarker that reflects differences between people.'
The scientists suggested these differences are due to genetic variation, and pointed to the involvementof a gene called PAX6. This gene helps control the formation of the iris in embryos. Previous research has shown that a mutation of it is linked to impulsiveness and poor social skills.

my wife excitedly told me that she talked to the wife of an elder that just came back from.
the special training for elders in upper state new york and that the elders are being told .
to go back to their congregations and to get them ready for the great tribulation.. i said to her that is great news !!!!
It's much like what many grain farmers have learned over the years..When the wheat board says don't
plant Durum wheat this year, is our best projection ! Guess what they've learned is best to plant DURUM WHEAT !

god's guidance = only the guidance of the wts/fds/gb.
when, though, do we need that guidance?

Blondie,
Being able to read behind the words and in between the words is such an important thing ! Thanks.

any rational person knows that hatred is probably the most destructive human emotion of all.
billions of people have died and suffered as a result of it.
why, then would a supposedly divine, loving and perfect god set the worst kind of example for weak humans by practicing hatred himself and wanting humans to follow his creepy example?.
Hate just breeds more hate, you can't turn it off.
I so agree with this statement, it's like marking or DA. ing , if you put mental blocks on your love it becomes artificial, mechanical....how then is hate any different ? Feelings most flow naturally from the heart to be genuine ! Caliber
i once had an elder point out that my greatest, and even my families flaw was that of being self-satisfied !.
at that time (out of respect for headship) i made no rebuttal.
however i did think to myself , is this part of .
Thanks for all a comments ,I think your conclusions pretty more match mine, that contentment beats
misery; So that this elder was a sour puss, having some sort if envy because of the heavy burden place
upon him by the WTS. It reminds me of a TV program I saw, where people believe they must display physical
suffering to please God.

that great guilt trip , don't think being happy is enough...you must give more until it hurts or you feel miserable
about your lot in life ! (all for Jah of course )
He seen my family as self-satisfied..I seen a happy, relax, contented family who was not giving him judicial headaches!

i have to admit that not much actually "bothered" my conscience.
what about you?
?
So I'm not inclined to believe anyone who uses "always" or "never" to describe himself. In fact, my experience tells me that those who rely on absolutes to describe themselves are desperately attempting to convince themselves of something that's very likely untrue; but because they've "said so" for such a long : Carlos
I have always cared about people not wanting to "stumble them ".

In my statement I should more accurately have said.... "it has been of much concern to care about people !
But the whole point of this thread is speaking if things that bothered ones conscience (the gap between knowing and doing )
