Well, I did what I could do. I wash my hands of this.

Seriously, how could you possibly calculate the energy required to open a portal that dosent even exsistnin theory let alone practice? Thats the biggest load of self agrandizing "oh look at me im smart" nonsense ive read today....
Wow. Nothing goes better with coffee, bacon and a soft boiled egg than an accusation of "self agrandizing" (sic). Game on! (cracks knuckles)...
First of all, I'll address elderelite's comment in the voice and candance of Dr. Sheldon Cooper: "Excuse me--how could you possibly calculate the energy??? ...doesn't even "existnin" (sic) theory let alone practice??? Nonsense??? Under what rock have you been living?"
There is an entire field of study called theoretical physics where scientists do calculate the energies of extremely tiny and unfathomably large physical reactions. There are scientists who spend their entire careers researching the mathematics that describe and predict problems just like these. So, not only do these questions exist in theory, it is also possible to calculate them. The reason they don't appear "in practice" yet is because, as I stated in my earlier post, the amount of energy required is prohibitive.
I do not engage in self aggrandizing (that word has 2 "G's," BTW) and take offense at your suggestion that I do. Nor do I simply pull random things from betwixt my butt cheeks. After a rigourous and exhausting Google search entry (which lasted all of 5 seconds), I found this article to back up my statement. I invite you to search things out for yourself, too. You'd be amazed at how many answers there are out there. Have I made mistakes? Yes. Probably 6 or 7 of them as I've been sitting here typing this up. Do I mind being "called out" on them? Not at all--especially if someone submits proof to back up their claim and refute one of mine. However, to simply assert a blind label on someone's motives (who you don't even know) is not acceptable and I will defend myself. Should I have posted this link last night? Looking back on it, yes. But as an imperfect person, it was late, I was tired and did a lazy job. I'll go bathe in the Ganges to cleanse myself. Here's a NASA link describing the energy required for a warp drive system:

beautiful fall day here inspired me to a kitchen task i don't do very often.
scratch beef stock.
yep.
Jambalya.
Ok, thank you yadda yadda. I was about to blow a gasket!
sorry for the wait guys.... .
part one.
moorse had the opening comments talked about historic annual meetings.. .
So to clarify, Jesus Christ is the mediator for only these 8 men. Is that right? Am I making a mistake anywhere? That's the official doctrine now? If that's the way they're going to go with this, it's time to start calling them out! ...WOW.
Question:
If this rumor proves to be true in the next few days/weeks/months, is it safe to say that the new official JW doctrine is that Christ is only the mediator for 8 men on planet earth?

Nope.
Distances between planets are too vast. If they travel in "warp drive," they F up their own relative planetary time frame. Wormhole/inter-dimensional travel is almost impossible. For a ship to open it's own porthole, the energy required to initiate it would be equal to the amount of energy released by a sun-sized star over it's 9 billion year lifetime. This just isn't possible.
in the the early 1970's, i used to enjoy going to assemblies, conventions and hear special talks given by bethel heavies.. in those days, we were believers and we applied ourselves as "ministers" with pride.. once the "end" was obviously not within our "generation", many of us started losing interest.. we started to think more critically.
it took a long time but once you start recognizing the bullsh*t, it's hard to stay in and truly believe at the same time.. .
Meeting Lett.
That did. That started it all for me. See the "getting to know" thread.
wts shunning my venting #3. on my rough estimate there may be 50 wts victims of enforced shunning for every one wts child abuse victim.
(it is recognized that greater trauma is inflicted on abuse victims.
) with such a large pool of shunned dubs, a number must have suffered such bad experiences as to warrant conti-like cases against the wts.
Maybe a strong anti-bullying law...
We've seen culture shift in the 20th Century. Hell, some states still have laws against homosexuality on their books but they just don't enforce them anymore. The culture has shifted and people can face serious consequences for discrimination and even be charged with hate crime if a prejudice motive is evident in a crime against a gay person.
Another example is the huge cultural shift in public smoking over the last 20 years. People's personal objections to it eventually influenced policies within businesses and finally at the level of city and state governments. Similarly, I think we're seeing the beginning of a shift against bullying. Bullying is in people's sights now. It's such a general term that it could cover a wide range of situations. (Then again, the word "bigot" has done nothing to change JW's treatment towards gays.)
*sigh*...This is such a dicey problem. I'd love to see churches held accountable for human rights violations with shunning, but I'd actually be opposed to a new draconian anti-bullying law. Imagine: people could bring a case against you for simply hurting their feelings in an internet debate. Ugh... WT really has people by the balls, don't they? And they know it. Perhaps the best thing to do is let their slow bleeding run its course. They won't be this influential forever. People are waking up now and it's a pretty exciting time!

whatever they are, they move.
I would love for this to be large colonies of photosynthetic microorganisms. These vanish in the martian winter and return in the martian summer! At the moment, most scientists hypothesize that they're CO2 geysers. I'm no geologist, but so far, I don't know of any geological events that positively correlate with seasonal change. Anything is possible, though! It could be a CO2 thaw, but I'm surprised the vapor isn't pure white. We've all seen dry ice, right? It's white and sublimes into a beautiful cloud-white vapor.
My only question on the geyser theory is this: Where are the shadows? If these are giant plumes, shadows would be visible emerging from their bases. Shadows are detectable on large natural and man-made objects from Google Earth, so where are the shadows here? (yeah, you can tell i'm really hoping it's microbial life, can't you?)
