Some Booklets I Request

by mildren53 in

the following booklets do also have my interest:.

1942 jehovah's witnesses - who are they - what is their work?

(32 pages).

How much are you willing to pay for them?

Sun,moon, earth and mathematics .

by atomant in

just thought id let you all in on some info i found on northeasttruth.com.

that magical moment where the moon blocks out the sun!

but only just enough to perfectly cover the suns disc, whilst still allowing us to see the corona of light and other electromagnetic forces radiating from it.. this only happens because the moon diameter is exactly 1/400th the size of the suns and is positioned at exactly 1/400th of the distance between earth and the sun!so, when we see it from the surface of earth, we are in the only place this can ever be seen, at the only time it could ever happen.

I disagree; it is not "interesting stuff" it is numerical pareidolia.

You're looking at a collection of numbers and seeing faces in them. Invisible, imaginary faces.

New study - JWs by far the least educated religious group in Canada, Australia and New Zealand

by slimboyfat in

the religion of the educated classes revisited: new religions, the nonreligious, and educational levels - james r. lewis .

the measure lewis uses to compare religious groups is what percentage of members of the respective religions have graduated from college.

the findings are similar to the results of the pew survey in the united states.

All around the world, groups of JWs are cheering and chanting,

"We're number zero! We're number zero!"

The Edgar Chronicles (My encounters with a crow)

by TerryWalstrom in

jw
friends

origins and prelude (edgar chronicles).

for the last several days, there has been some kind of black bird strutting about on the starbucks patio searching for crumbs.. .

i don't particularly get along with these birds.

Nathan Natas

Great stuff, Mr.T, as always!

I have a special place in my dark heart for these black birds, and the ones who live near me are LARGER and GLOSSIER than those who eke out a living two miles away.

Crows have a demonstrated ability to recognize individual humans, and they are very social birds, so they talk amongst themselves about who is friend or foe. If a person tries to harm a crow, he WILL BE remembered. By the crows.

They are carnivoires. They will go nuts over a can of dog or cat food that has been lovingly opened and attractively plated for them. Utensils will be unnecessary.

They really enjoy the effort they must expend to open an in-the-shell peanut. Peanuts are good protein, too. Thank you forever, George Washington Carver!

From time to time I will get some liver, cut it into chunks they can handle, and offer it to them RAW as "roadless kill carrion." They don't complain.

Lenore's circumstances trouble me. Probably she fell victim to a mousetrap or snare, and I fear her prospects are grim. The blind eye of Jehovah cares not a whit for the birds of the field. They are on their own, as we are.

In Washington State it is illegal to keep a crow as a pet, so when I hear crows in my neighborhood making unusual sounds - one says "Hello" in a voice like an old lady in heaven and another perfectly replicates the sound of a Coo Coo Clock, I am mystified about how this came to be. Other neighbors are equally mystified. It is a wonderful sacred secret that only the crows know in full.

Quote the raven, "Evermore!"

Would DNA be a choice to backup this computer network

Nathan Natas

I'm using a slice of ham as my storage media right now.

Looking for evolutionary info on how smells can be carried on DNA

by Crabby in

as i said last night the smell of pus from an infection is recognized by all puppies without their being exposed to the smell previously, this is shown because all puppies react the same way to this smell, which is to lick the infected pus laden wound.. this demonstrates that smells are carried on dna in some way.

any thoughts on how?.
