Height of mountains before and after the flood .
by smiddy3 init was stated many years ago in answer to how did the flood cover the top of all the mountains on earth in noah`s day.?.
mount everest ?.
and it was explained away by saying that the mountains before the flood were a lot smaller / lower than the mountains that exist today.. so there was no problem .. when the deluge began with so much volume of water now covering the earth ( water being heavy ) pushed down into the weakest parts of the earth and raised up in other parts of the earth to where we now have higher mountains than existed before the flood of noah`s day.. in other words mount everest didn`t exist at its present height before the flood and neither did any other high mountain that exists today ,the topography all changed with the noachian flood.

So mount Everest became a low elevation mountain to a height of 29,029 ft in just over 2000 years.
I think some professional geologists would like make a comment about that.

To be noted its easy to say or assert election fraud, its another thing to prove it legally and honestly through acquired evidence..
That being said in an appeal to support honest counting one shouldn't make it a persistent agenda to be a obstructionist in tried investigations, where there has been information come forward as there being voting fraud.

So who here thinks the election was rigged as D Trump has said or was it just that there was a segment of the population that didn't like his leadership and wanted a change ?

for a "disease" that is usually about as serious as a stupid little cold.
A Wizard have you looked at the deaths caused by this virus up to date in the US, 246,000, statistically projected to reach 400,000 in couple of months before a vaccine is publicly distributed ???
that sounds like little bit more than an ordinary cold virus.
I dont remember hearing about that many dying from an ordinary cold or flu. ???
I suppose if you caught the virus yourself and had to go to a hospital to save your life you might have a different opinion on the matter.

The ancients embellished stories many times to empower their chosen worshiped gods or to themselves, the written words within the bible is evidence of just that fact.
Real historical facts aren't used much in religions who set upon their own self supporting propaganda agenda.

Politics and Hope
by lriddle80 inso there are a lot of atheists on here.
my question: where does your hope come from?
that the right people will be put in political positions and will eventually form a utopian society that will meet all needs and we will have equality for all?.
-

I was wondering if only politics was the answer for them because they seem
to be for my atheist relatives and if those relatives lost hope in politics, then what else was there for them.
So your saying religious adherence (Spirituality) is where mankind should involve themselves with to improve and curtail humanity's problems and enduring perils ?
Human intervention alone without religious adherence is endeavoring futile and redundant !
Is that what your saying Iriddle80 ?

Are Jehovah's Witnesses running a race with no end in sight?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inhorse racing lengths vary from just a couple of furlongs to several hundred miles, if you count the mongolian derby.
in britain, horse racing rules state that races should be over a minimum of five furlongs, while the longest race is over 4m2½f.. .
nascar races generally last anywhere from 1.5 to 4 hours, depending on the length of the race, number of laps and track conditions.

Strangely but maybe not so surprising the finish line to this race has been constantly moved forward again and again since the Watchtower Corporation was first started in the late 1800's.
Why is that ?

Iriddle80 your superimposing the conceptual ideology that its only human made politics is the only hope mankind can possibly retain.
This is false ideology created and promoted by religoius organizations like the JWS which I'm guessing your a member of.
As history has shown in the end its humans alone that have the inherent responsibility for making the human experience better for all concerned.
Religious organizations look for people in peril to exploit their situation as a means to mentally lure them into an engaging false ideology of embracing supernatural beings and their select earthly chosen ones to guide them toward a better living experience.
Sure there may be at first some positive results in the beginning giving people some hope of reassuring confidence within themselves by being involved in a socialized group effort with others but the long term can prove crippling as well.
You can see this in people who got too deeply involved in the JWS religion.
People who participated for many years in special pioneer work only to be let go when they aged, leaving them impoverished with no financial or healthcare support by the organization to which they served.
People waiting for Jehovah their worshiped god to resolve mankind struggles and perils accomplished by being subjectively obedient to his supposed earthly chosen ones the GB leaders.
Creating dependency upon envisioned ancient gods has proven to be overall an endeavor of harmful futility for mankind.
