the seven laws of noah are:
1. belief in a supreme being and the prohibition of
worshipping any other beings.
I read a book that claims that the decision at the council of Jerusalem (Acts 15) was the founding document of Western Civilization.
By doing away with circumcision Christianity avoided just being a quirky jewish sect and allowed it to spread throught the western world.
The population of the whole earth when Russell started was a third less than the population of China.

I don't believe in God. But I am interested in the predictions contained in the BIble. Also a little interested in Nostradamus and other so called seers.
If scientists can put up arrays of radio telescopes to look for messages from other life I think it reasonable that there may be communications via ancient writings. Especially when the writers of these predictions claim to have received their information from visitors from the sky.
So, I am looking for a confluence of events that correlate with Bible predictions.
Its not based on numerology. Its hard to take translations of numbers too serious. 40 years might just mean a long period. 7 years may be an average period of time. And 3.5 may be a "short" period of time. Who can say "absolutely".
This prediction was based on a particular intersection of events that indicated the potential for something significant. It wasn't.
You learn to predict by making predictions. Ask doctors how they develop prognostic skills.

Do you really want to ridicule? If I really am crazy does that make you feel good?
You need to use a little on-line etiquette. You chose to make fun of me. I dished some back to you in the spirit of a little lively repartee. Do you want a prolonged worthless discussion like that?
Of course that would fit in well with your other light-weight posts.
By the way. Read your last post here and try to discover the fallacy in it. It is probably obvious to anyone who has taken logic 101.
yes i am quitting the forum ,,, i cant keep up with you all.
i cant remember whos who, so very happy that we have many many new ones,,,, .
let me tell you i love you all ...i have been so respected by you all & shown much unconditional love..... i know many have my home e-mail..... so if any want to - they know what to do.. i have been on here a long time.... gus,gus ( my wonderful daughter still posts on occasions.
You probably will still post as much as I do.
So don't even think of it as leaving.
You are just kind of dropping out of the Pioneer work and becoming a regular publisher.
i didn't want these buried deep in the favorite quotes thread because they are just too dang funny and/or weird.

that masturbation is abnormal and unnatural is also indicated by the fact that abnormal, mentally deranged people are notorious masturbators.
Research suggests that the more frequently a man empties the tubes the less likely they will develop prostate cancer.
Apparently its not good to have the stuff sitting around.
Maybe the body of elders need to question older brothers who DON'T have prostate cancer and find out what they have been doing to prevent it.
----a 50 year old male has a 50% chance of having prostate cancer. You can add 1% for every year after 50.

It has been said that it takes 10,000 hours to become an expert at something.
For instance 10,000 hours practicing an instrument to become a virtuoso.
Aside from murder, stealing, lying, fornication the biggest sin is wasting life.

I read some of your posts starting with the most recent. Nothing particularly deep. Mostly the kind of chit chat you would encounter at a sports bar while the game cuts for a commercial. Actually, its kind of gossipy. Certainly not anything anybody is going to bring back up to make a point.
Thats ok. You need a lot of ordinary people. You definitely are not crazy. You are just extremely ordinary.

And you are probably boring and conventional. Your internal censor won't allow you to experiment with anything new, risky or creative.
That puts you in a comfortable setting of the masses are asses types.
Good for you.
Now go in peace, but don't disturb it with anything that distracts you from your well worn path.
is there anyone out there who was in the 42nd class of gilead and has seen the light?
my name then was vivienne ainsworth.
i would dearly love to hear from anyone who remembers me.
So you went to Gilead just when 1975 became a big deal
