quoted from the las vegas sun and review journal ,.
" many jehovah witnesses refuse blood transfusions because blood is viewed as scared and the bible mandates no transfusions, said al zaragoza, chairman of the hospital liaison committee for jehovah witness.
"cell-saver is an extention of one's circulatory system," zaragoza said.

the gb grapevine news is that one of the older gb members conscientiously no longer feels he is one of the anointed (yeah i guess there's still one or two who still have a conscience) .
not a big news item but i found it very interesting, the "cracking" at the top continues!.

Good one. Reports a few months ago of water ice at one of the poles of the moon. For all i know the could be bases on the moon. The technology exists, there only needs to be a strategic justification. Bases could, but wouldn't need to be manned. The chinese are heading there. Russia had a long term plan for mars.

i have been trying to find a wt quote but all has failed and so i turn to this discussion board for help.
i am beginning to wonder if i imagined it in one of my wierd dreams.
i cannot give it exactly, but it went something like this.... (following discussion of "worldly" bombs that kill good and bad alike)... if only a bomb could be constructed that only destroyed the unrighteous.... ps - hello sirona.

While i was attending the pentacostal type churches, they would sing, chant or speak in tongues for periods of time in oder to get into a 'spiritual' state. Was that singing, chanting and speaking in tongues useful? Millions of churchlings say it is. If it is, then smoking weed can be as well.

With legalisation can come education and treatment of problem users. Of course if the industry became too large, then there would be the same exploitation problems with it as w legal prescription drugs, cigarrettes, and booze. In some cases, kids are forced to take the ritalin drug. Go figure.

The way to stop this senseless violence is to legalise it. Then they would be going to court not going for their guns. Prices would plummet. Quality would rise. Gov'ts would make money on taxes and liscences. Criminals would either compete or go out of business.

Grapevine has it that the american military has bases on the moon.

just supposing that adam in the garden of eden hadn't shared and participated in the eating of the forbidden fruit, what would have happened?
would adam be without a partner to this day?
and if god knows the end from the beginning, being the alpha and the omega an all that, did he know that 'sin' was going to take place?
Cel
Well i don'y believe that adam sinned. Heck i don't even believe in adam. And so, everything is as it is even without his sin. IMO

uzbekistan has allowed the us a share in its oil production and a pipeline had been agreed to be built that would pass through afghanistan.
the present problems threaten that.
uzbekistan is land-locked and cannot sell its oil through any other means.

There is a lot NOT being said about this. I posted to this effect months ago. Think huge growing markets in japan, and especially india and china. A 48 inch pipeline has been scheduled for years, to go through afghanistan.
