25Jesus—a real, historical person
by Ireneus injesus was a real and historical person (not the way jws or the rest of the people think him to be) because of the following historical facts:.
1) the fact that the most influential political establishment of that time (roman empire) was convinced that jesus’ name would sell to suit their political agenda (to promote slavery) shows that jesus was as historical as roman empire itself; hence they implanted slavery-friendly verses into the bible as though spoken by jesus (such as mathew 5:39, 41; 24:45 ..etc) this was in contrast to the real personality jesus really was—he was a man of courage, who ‘walked alone to do what is right if those invited refused to accompany him.’ when his family and disciples were fond of sleeping, his delight was to spend early morning hours alone, in meditation, with god to the extent he could say he was “one” with qualities of god.
(mark 1:35; john 8:1, 2; 10:30) such a person would naturally be too famous and too crowd-pulling against whom even the influential people were helpless even when they were whipped out of the temple which reminds us of “hollywood rambo style” merely because of his moral authority (not that he had any supernatural powers to perform miracles).. 2) similarly, emerging religion (apostate christianity) too knew they could misuse the name of jesus to serve its commercial agenda.

How did ancients know entire Earth was covered by water?
by Bad_Wolf inentire world used to be covered by water.
i am not talking about the 'great flood', but on earth's formation itself.
the bible talks about earth being only water and then god making dry land appear.

That would also explain why no mammals of earliest fossils
Earliest fossils are of prokaryotic life more than 3 billion years ago. Mammals didn't evolve until 160 million years ago.

Diane Abbott XD
by LoveUniHateExams indiane abbott has often given me moments of amusement throughout the years.. whenever i'm feeling depressed, 30 mins of watching her varied gaffes on youtube usually cheers me up.. the following is a clip from this week (feb 2008) in which she seems to wonder out loud whether mao did more good than harm.
it's great to hear michael portillo's initial reaction ("whaaat!
") and then watch him and andrew neil belly-laugh at diane abbott's comments at the end of the clip.. perhaps she'd been at the blue nun xd.

Abbott and Corbyn were lovers back in the day - what a horrendous mental image that is!
McDonnell is a self-confessed Marxist.

China is the most realistic and relevant alternative. Which is scary from a western perspective because they don't seem to share our notions of individualism and freedom. - SBF
China is an enemy of freedom and democracy. Anybody who sees China as a "realistic and relevant alternative" to Western liberal democracy is a useful idiot.

she's had better judgment than those two when it counts
Defending Mao should permanently disqualify her from public office.
She is either a monster or suffering from an astonishing degree of ignorance.

Abbott lacks the intelligence, knowledge and judgement that ought to be essential to some degree in any senior politician.
Her comment regarding Mao was outrageous. Her debacle over the costs of additional police officers was hilarious.
She will continue to succeed regardless under the protection of her former lover Corbyn.
