Well, mankind was always getting themselves in trouble. I'm not sure if the materialized Angels even ate. The other accounts when Abraham offered them food states that they were pleased. So their human bodies must of needed food. I'm not sure if there are any other referenced material that would tell us about their diet.

Assuming the flood story was true.
Well, the Genesis account in chapter 9: 1-4 indicates that Jehovah gave permission to the flood survivors to eat meat, and that a fear would exist between the marine, and animal kingdom. There is no other detail about what the diet was mentioned except in Gen 3: 18, 19. It was mentioned that mankind would experience a curse of the ground when cultivating the vegetation. Mankind was to eat produce from the ground. Prior to the rebellion in Eden, Adam and Eve ate freely from any tree in the garden with the exception of the tree of "Knowledge of Good, and Bad". Those are the the only Bible references that shed light on this subject.

I think that 80% of the young ones in our congregation are are ignoring the advice from the FS, and are going to UNI.
The only one's promoting the anti-education are the ones that didn't go, and the CO's in our cong.

Too sick or injured but still made it to the meeting!
by RULES & REGULATIONS ini once attended a two day special assembly with my gums bleeding after having 4 widom teeth pulled the day before.
i managed the two days by rinsing out my mouth all day long and placing cotton in my mouth.. one brother had back surgery the week before but attended a two day assembly by laying on a matress in the back of the assembly hall.
why he needed to be there i'll never understand!.

I worked in First Aid, at the assemblies, and I always wondered why the extreme sick ones would show up. Some had a guilt complex, and others didn't seem to understand any other life.

To everyone in Calgary, I hope that you are safe during this crisis.
I was just down last summer in Alberta, and I have some friends in Canmore. Hope they are ok. We are still waiting for their responses. They would have had to evacuate.

Manditory Security Clearence and Identification Badge For Any Door to Door Canvassers Religous or Commercial
by frankiespeakin inpeople going door to door uninvited should be required to get a licence and sercurity check if they are going door to door and required to show it on demand while engaged in the door to door work.. after all it is a perfect stranger for the most part who could be an imposter or maybe even a violent criminal or rapist.
no one convicted of sexual molestation or violent crimes should be given a permit.
an added benifit would be less people knocking on your door trying to sell you something be it a vaacum cleaner or armegeddon life insurance protection.. what is your opinon?.

This will be a hard thing to enforce. In our community, a person who is found guilty in the courts usually gets the option to choose a comunity service, i.e. canvasing fot the blind, or some other Charity. You just know that the person knocking on your door, is somehow trying to avoid a harder judgement. It also makes us judge the person. I can see this as a hindrance to that rule, but I would like to see some ID
