tonight (sunday, 13th may) at 20:00 on bbc 2 ... for neanderthal believers, agnostics and deniers.. this first programme in a two-part series investigates what neanderthals looked like and and how they lived in their ice age world.
it turns out that almost everything we thought we knew about them is wrong.
they weren't hunched, grunting, knuckle-dragging ape-men at all.

If you can't be bothered to educate yourself to a level that allows you to understand the rudimentary history of this topic then what do you think you are doing commenting on these threads?
This isn't a kingdom hall where that type of behaviour passes for educated reasoning...
i know their have been many posts dedicated to this subject already and i apologize if this aspect has been handled before.. apart from the many other absurdities relating to the flood of noah`s day being literal as jehovah`s witnesses believe and already thrashed out here by the many posts previous.. i was wondering if this aspect has been considered that the waters would have had to cover over active volcanoes with what result ?.
their are a number of" active and resting" volcanoes at any one time around the earth and i`m just wondering if anyone more knowledgeable than me about the subject would like to weigh in and give their 2 cents worth in what effect a global flood covering volcanoes would have ?.
i am aware their are fissures in the deep oceans where volcanic activity occurs ,but is this the same ?.
The amount of water 'released' in this story would release enough energy to melt the Earth.
However, silly stories aside, the effects of water on top of magma depends where this occurs. Along oceanic ridges the pressure at those depths keeps things rather muted. The lava that is released is flash cooled creating what is known as pillow lava. When this happens at the surface with little pressure to keep the energy in check the effects are going to get explosive with the water turning to steam and the surface of the lava solidifying before being explosively destroyed by the still molten lava underneath. You would not want to get too close.
For your question specifically, consider that the highest active volcano is 6893 m high whereas Everest is 8848 m high. With that in mind this flood would have covered that volcano with almost 2 km of water creating enough pressure to have calmed things down sufficiently that you could have focused better on the fact the entire Earth had melted...

"It is a FACT that 100% settlements are reached because the defendants think they are going to loose" - _M.
And they have something to hide.
Do we think the abused party goes to the watchtower and asks for money or do we think the watchtower offers the money for them to go away...?
The watchtower acts like it is guilty and has something to hide, the facts show that the policies of the watchtower have caused numerous 'incidents' to occur, we continue to see the watchtower lie about its policies and behaviours...
And then we have Bobby, who isn't happy unless he is defending this indefensible corporation.

"...Strange track record for an innocent organization." - _Morpheus
Exactly. No innocent person or organisation would hinder investigations or make undisclosed payouts for the silence of the person who is supposedly lying about that organisation or person.

Bobby,
This organisation also has obligations to those who class themselves as members of this organisation. Withholding information of criminal activity is a crime and no amount of hand wringing about '2 witnesses' can shift that fact. The law is clear and that is why this organisation you like to support has to hide these facts because they have acted illegally.
However you seem to think this is all about money. Perhaps you are more 'watchtower' than you even think you are...

"The reorganization years ago was apparently in part to make suing them harder; to make them less centralized, and to force money-grubbing blame-shifters to think twice about bringing a frivolous lawsuit." - bobby
You are right again bobby, they need to shift things around to make the victims' attempt at justice all the more difficult. Why change the problems within the organisation that are actually causing these issues when you can simply hide the guilt...
"money-grubbing blame-shifters" - Booby
Is that how you describe victims of abuse who have had no recourse other than a legal one to get the watchtower corporation to answer for their policies that enabled the abuse to happen?

"Sure, the WT should volunteer information to aid lawyers in suing them" - Bobby
That's right, they should hide their guilt to the best of their abilities. However, if the information is not there in the first place then there is nothing to 'give' to anyone...
"You sound like fools..." - Bobby
Says the poster who says that the watchtower should try to hide their guilt from those who want justice...
below i link the article.
i thought some points on the claim were interesting.
such as how prolonged direct exposure to sunlight hurts us vs other animals, sicknesses, etc.
"that is not known beyond a shadow of a doubt..." - BW
Yes it is. The evidence all demonstrates this to be true. All the evidence tells the same story.
"...and your keep saying that doesn't make it true." - BW
You are correct; Cofty saying it is true doesn't make it true. It's all the evidence that makes it true. It's all that stuff you seem to have overlooked before making that OP; that OP that is so daft it requires you to have absolutely no knowledge of these subjects to take it seriously.
Yet again I am going to say something that I seem to repeat a lot on these type of topics: You (BW) do not know enough to understand just how wrong you are...
