I'm all for social support systems but when unemployed, hungry people keep breeding i can only shake my head. The issue is, they may have the sense and reasoning of rats but should their innocent kids be punished with hunger because of irresponsible parents? I think not. Every society has its share of social leaches but you don't punish a dog because it's covered in ticks.

I honestly think Trump is leading all his followers on - a complete con job. The guy has a solid history of being liberal and has been friends with the Clinton's for over two decades. I hate conspiracy theories but I have this itch in the back of my mind that his whole game plan from the start was to hijack the Republican Party and derail it. What exactly his motivation would be I cannot say, but nothing adds up under close scrutiny. The fact that he is so dismissive of even attempting to clarify his policies but conducts his entire sordid campaign as if it were a reality show tells me he never really intended to invest much thought or solid principals into his plans. I don't believe for a moment he intends to follow through with most of his promises but instead create a quasi Democratic Party and this is the reason the establishment Republican party is hell-bent on stopping him. They see his lack of conservative history and don't trust him. Either way I've always hated Trump ever since I read about his private jet having a gold toilet back in the 90's. But if he means hijacking the Republican Party ship and sinking it, I'm all for it.
Either this country has to get at least a third party or the RP has to be rebuilt from the ground up. I'm sick of their religious rhetoric being injected into their politics and their constant denial of climate change. As it stands now it's a party that does nothing more than propagate ignorance and while they demand religious freedom, demand that others don't have freedoms which contradict their religious ideologies.
Ideally I would like to see a party which takes the common sense and humanitarian parts of each party and combines them.

As a kid (10-12 yes old if I recall correctly ) I prayed to Jehoover several times in an ernest, sincere attempt to "feel" his love, presence or his will. Not once did I feel a thing. My mother would make excuses as to why I was not getting any feed back which only served to reinforce my doubts about theism. -

Things we an say on our death bed...
by The Rebel in1) i am glad i had the courage to live my life true to myself and not the life others expected of me.. 2) i am glad i had the courage to express my feelings.. 3) i am glad i let myself be myself.. 4 ) and i hope i have so many days, and years to live those thoughts, because surely the most wonderful thing about having left our " watchtower death bed" is to start living?.
in my case at 50 !!.
but the important thing is when we leave, to start living.. any experiences worth sharing?.

Superstitious people
by biblexaminer inthe world is filled with superstitious people.
and some of the most superstitious are jehovah's witnesses.. remember, i didn't say they alone are the most superstitious, nor did i say they are on an island.
how do we know that this is true?

All you have to do is consider how everything "worldly" somehow has Satan or his demons connected to it - that says everything about their superstitious behaviour. I remember my mom burning my sisters rock records, clothes she was given by a lady she later discovered was a "spiritist" and how dubs at the KH would gasp whenever it was suspected someone was "being influenced" by demons. -

We may have interbred with Neanderthals earlier than previously thought.
by cappytan init is now thought that we have been interbreeding with neanderthals as early as 100,000 years ago.. http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-35595661.
craziest thing i just realized: some women still breed with neanderthals up to this day.
rihanna and chris brown anyone?.

There is an excellent documentary called "Decoding the Neanderthal" on Netflix which I highly recommend for anyone interested in science and our history. The topic of interbreeding between Neanderthals and Homosapians is covered in the documentary and offers this very fact as a partial explanation for the extinction of the Neanderthal. Apparently it's quite possible that they were simply "absorbed" into the early Homosapian settlers of Europe. According to DNA trace testing (which is largely what the documentary is about), most modern humans have anywhere from 2% - 10% Neanderthal DNA, with those of European ancestry having the largest proportion of Neanderthal DNA. They also discovered that Neanderthals were more advanced than originally supposed. Interesting stuff.
Often times my sheer idiocy has caused me to joke that I may just be partially Neanderthal. Now I know in all likelihood it isn't just a joke but I may well have the world's highest proportion of their DNA and my wife tends to agree ;)
