  rev 21:.

  23the city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of god gives it light, and the lamb is its lamp.

  no sun?

  Firefly adults have a light-producing organ on their abdomens. The light organ is a remarkably efficient structure, producing light without losing energy through heat. Have you ever touched an incandescent light bulb after it's been on a few minutes? It's hot! If the firefly's light organ emitted comparable heat, the insect would meet a crispy end.

  A firefly's bioluminescence is produced by a chemical reaction within its body. Calcium, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the substrate luciferin, and the enzyme luciferase must all be present in the light organ. The introduction of oxygen triggers the reaction between these ingredients, resulting in light energy.

  Nitric oxide is the key that opens the door to the light organ, allowing oxygen to enter and initiate the reaction. In the absence of nitric oxide, oxygen molecules bind to the mitochondria on the surface of light organ cells, and no light can be produced. When present, nitric oxide binds to the mitochondria instead, allowing the oxygen to enter the organ and generate light.

  hi all... haven't been on the forum in ages...heard there was recently a talk or a watchtower that came out on showing mercy.

  anyone know or heard of it??

  had a jw relative mention it breifly yo my sister and was wondering if any of you had the article or have perhaps discussed it and could possibly lead me to the link.

  I think most talk on JWD looks for harsher treatment (faders to be announced as longer JW's ) rather than

  some form of increased mercy of some sort ! Time will tell I guess !

  Jehovah's Witnesses – a religion with nothing to celebrate

  by eyeslice in

  this is a re-hash of a post i made a few years back when i had only just 'left'.

  but as time has gone by i have become even more convinced that the witnesses are, how can i put this, a fairly miserable lot.

  it seems to me that what separates humans from other animals is our culture and traditions.
