Doesn’t matter what we say,
you won’t research it anyway.
hi folks, i’m attending the london protest at the excel convention in august and am making some banners.
i’m aiming for short but memorable sentences that will stick in jws minds and also make them laugh a little at their own organisation.. my best so far is ‘this is not a protest, it’s an overlapping protest’.
has anyone got any ideas for more?.

The Cult of Celebrity.
as people begin to share information, negative and positive across boundaries(borders) what effect do you think that will have on governmental war machines?.
what about government censorship will it prevail during a time of disagreement between two countries who are at war?.
i think that one of the benefits of the information age is that government can find out in a heart beat what the masses under their control feel about issues they are concerned about in other countries and public willingness to sacrifice their lives over such issues.. to me i see the way i see it is the more informed a population is the better.
replace one word in a song title with the word 'elder/s'.. eg.

Insight on the Scriptures - Vol 1. Chronology pg 453
Under Babylonian Chronology it reads;
A Babylonian clay tablet is helpful for connecting Babylonian chronology with Biblical chronology. This tablet contains the following astronomical information for the seventh year of Cambyses II son of Cyrus II: “Year 7, Tammuz, night of the 14th, 1 2⁄3 double hours [three hours and twenty minutes] after night came, a lunar eclipse; visible in its full course; it reached over the northern half disc [of the moon]. Tebet, night of the 14th, two and a half double hours [five hours] at night before morning [in the latter part of the night], the disc of the moon was eclipsed; the whole course visible; over the southern and northern part the eclipse reached.” (Inschriften von Cambyses, König von Babylon, by J. N. Strassmaier, Leipzig, 1890, No. 400, lines 45-48; Sternkunde und Sterndienst in Babel, by F. X. Kugler, Münster, 1907, Vol. I, pp. 70, 71) These two lunar eclipses can be identified with the lunar eclipses that were visible at Babylon on July 16, 523 B.C.E., and on January 10, 522 B.C.E. (Oppolzer’s Canon of Eclipses, translated by O. Gingerich, 1962, p. 335) Thus, this tablet establishes the seventh year of Cambyses II as beginning in the spring of 523 B.C.E. This is an astronomically confirmed date.

The original went from "can be identified" to "can evidently be identified", from "establishes" to "points to" and from an "astronomically confirmed date" to an omission.
A slight of hand to discourage the reliance on "pagan" historical records for date setting that might also be used to establish the "astronomically confirmed date" for the 37th year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign in VAT 4956?
