darkspilver: Thank you for posting that. Does not the Iceman look like Hitler, who was born not too far from the find, and : read the fine print at the bottom of page four: " Awake builds confidence in the Creator's promise of a new world--that the generation that saw the events of 1914 will not pass away. " With Oetzi and the flood dated the same age, why did he not float away? at least we know that Noah must have had copper tools. he must have spend more time sharpening them than actually working, if you know how long a finely honed edge lasts, and how hard it is to woodwork without them.

Latest News on Oetzi
by LoveUniHateExams ini vaguely remember when the 5,000 year old mummy was first discovered in sept 1991. i was twelve.
he was quickly given the name 'oetzi' because he was found in the oetztaler alps.. my granddad had a book about it and after he died, i took his book home with me.. apparently, some scientists believe that oetzi died from an arrow shot and a blow to the head.. interesting.. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3795815/25-years-europe-s-oldest-human-mummy-alps-scientists-say-amazed-learning-5-300-year-old-corpse.html .

The Biblical Flood Thoroughly Trashed
by Farkel inthere are many new ones on this board who may not have seen this.
my old friend alan feurerbacher who has done an unbelievable amount of scholarly research on many subjects must have spent about two or three thousand years researching virtually every aspect of the biblical flood story, and am providing the link to this subject (together with links to other excellent work by him).
it's long and detailed and definitely not for those who get bored with more than four sentences of information and sound bites.

If the flood was global and Everest high, to make sure everything drowned as planned, all glaciers would have lifted off their bases, (the Greenland ice sheet is only 1/3 of Everest's height), and drifted for 9 months. Vast fields of floatsome, biomatter on the surface too. so-- why do we have these Ice masses there now again? and where did they come from in the first place if it never rained, snowed before the flood?

Origin of Life
by cofty inin recent years significant progress has been made in solving the question of how life originated on our planet.. how do you think theists will respond when it finally happens?
as a former christian i know my reaction would have been something like "well that just goes to show that it takes intelligent life to make life", but for two reasons that defense doesn't work.. firstly it would prove that life is not an ethereal force that originates with god.
there is no 'ghost in the machine', no elan vital.

believers of various shades could argue, about a new, human-made start-up of life, that a new source of electricity, or a new circuitry has been created, a similar, parallel self-replicating reaction, but it is still the same electrons, the same electricity, wavy strings, same potential energy, same laws, from the big bang beginning, and you know where that must have come from. -- That scientists in their experimentation on abiogenesis are just trying to build the right trap to catch the life force again? a force that does not float around everywhere, but appears under the right conditions, like the Casimir effect?

Oetzi died from an arrow shot and a blow to the head
Abel just died from the blow, it took one thousand years of arms race to kill at a distance, he also had a copper axe that was not taken from him before he was snowed under and froze. His closest modern day descendants live in Corsica, Sardinia, home of European supercentenarians. They are freezing people again for future use.
What puzzles me, is, how come, if he died just around the time of the flood, why his private glacier tomb was not lifted up above Mt. Blanc, the Matterhorn, Everest? Ice floats on water right?

Alanv: "What happened to their new rule of not using types and anti types unless the bible specifically does?
The article does not have the words "type" and "antitype" directly printed, but on page 32, the last in that the issue, it say of the 1919 anointed: "--they were like the stick of Judah,--" and of the OS: "-- they were like the stick for Joseph--" clearly using them as symbolic types. My point is, that member of all tribes were Israelites, not just the Levites living among them all over the land , or just Judah and Benjamin settled around Jerusalem .Wt can not admit that most of it's adherents are real dignified humans, "israelites" not comparable to dumb animals. They never speak of anointed sheep and Other sheep. In the article their own words prove them wrong. Denying the Other Sheep full citizenship proves that their previous symbolic typing of ancient stories was misapplication of the precedents.

The antitype (David Splane's enjoinder notwithstanding), has the Other Sheep pictured by the 10 tribes of Israel, slowly join the ruling class after 1919. So wt what is it? are Other Sheep as you say here and now not really [spiritual] Israelites? members making up the 10 tribes? Was not the 13st tribe Levi spread among them, but working in Jerusalem? all Israelites, all heavies, not lites, not goyim?
shame on wt, trying to create a multi-tier christianity, and contradicting it in their teachings. or?

New commentary on revelation coming up?
by EdenOne ini heard through the grapevine about a forthcoming book:.
together through the great tribulation - come to jehovah's mountain.
still awaiting solid confirmation though.

The GB members must know that they are lost, lost in time, having to keep on the watch, they are probably scanning world events to find a pattern they can match to the ramblings in revelation. but like each of the heavenly star constellations, the bible, their guide, is not a real pattern, just pictures unrelated to important situations,-- so bring it on, it should be turning out worse than their last effort.

Oneeyedjoe: "--Splane is probably just going along with whatever to try to keep the gravy train going so he can die in his new compound, so he wouldn't care;
how would you know? David might be the one that is itching to get the pet ideas he is hatching, of the mystic kind, into print and bringing the Rev 1:10: "day of the Lord" aka F&DS of 1919 in line with 21st century happenings. It might be a diversion from the musical ambitions of his. Trying to find a way to make the template of the Apocalipse fit the modern events. if it happens, it is because the latter day Freddy Franzes won out over the Nathan Knorrs.

JW women true value
by Chook inwhen they sent out internal letter to elders regarding the binding of elders book , worldly men could do the job but only under supervision of a elder.
but under no circumstance could a sister touch the book.
