the authors of a paper presented in the biological bulletin have provided the first direct evidence that the emerald green sea slug, an unusual little beast in that it helps sustain itself by photosynthesis, has within its chromosomes genes that come from the algae it eats.. this is an example of gene transfer from one species to another.
in effect this is exactly what the the goal of gene therapy is.
it is anticipated that gene therapy techniques will prevent many genetically based diseases in humans.
I think photosynthesis can work in humans but you must to be green.
Gene therapy is already a reality. Theres a medicine called Glybera. Bad news it still the most expensive medicine in the world and it just treat pancreatitis.
And this is a good example of rapid evolution.
scientists discovered an organism that has not evolved in more than 2 billion years (http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/02/150203104131.htm) .
one can dismiss this as an exception*!
yet overwhelming proofs are too obvious to miss if we take the community as an individual (community is the reflection of the behavior pattern of the individuals that make up the whole).
you must see the musical video at the end of this month program (aprox.
at 1:04:30).... i don't like to use "must" but this is wow... if you think they couldn't get any lower... just be prepared...
i have noticed something even long before even looking into ttatt, something about morris bothered me.
i am personally very attuned to body language, facial expressions and general subtleties in human interaction.
there was something about his face that really bothered me, and i will explain it.
you have your bethel watchtower study on a monday evening, as i understand it.therefore, prepare your hearts and your bible trained consciences to "test the inspired expressions" being presented as bible truth in the next study article - especially this one;w14 11/15 p. 26 par.
"acts 1:8 - "you will be witnesses of me...." [jesus]john 1:15 - "john bore witness about him..." [jesus]john 5:37 - "the father who sent me has himself borne witness about me.
"revelation 12:17 - ".......and have the work of bearing witness to jesus.
identical twin studies show there is a strong inheritable component to religiosity.
thomas bouchard studied identical and fraternal twins raised apart and tested them on religious attitudes.. the correlation for the former turned out to be 62% compared to just 2% for the latter.

you don't have to know much to talk to jw's and show them they don't want to really discuss the matters.they consider a discussion on the matter they are pushing to be "confrontational.".

i find that when talking people who say they "used to be a jehovah's witness" they say words that show they have in fact, never been one.
it's like a man that worked for the post office for 30 years in a main major urban hub like chicago or new york... and you ask him, "in your last position, what was your rdo?

An electrician should know the Ohm's law. I'm an electrotechnician and never heard about the word dykes for diagonal pliers. If you want to talk about electrical jargons try harmonics (specially the third one).
What about an ideal faith? I don't think faith is a good thing but if you really need one I think buddhism is very interesting.
