Same for rivers, they are carved out just where the water needs to go.
It is not the material, but the laws in our particular universe that are so shaping. Rivers move fastest where there is a restriction (unlike traffic, that stalls). The faster flow causes abrasion, and over time evens the flow. The same law, seen in the Venturi effect is also is one of the 4 reasons, why wings can lift us into the sky.
Love the laws that squeezed through the big bang.
this image appears on the current main web page - as you scroll the "witnessing" photos.. weird "facial" image at the guy's right shoulder.. .
The bespectacled foreground scene just shows what a drag the service is, while life goes on in it's exciting journey, wt is still mired in the time molasses stretching back to 1914, of course things will look strange from that perspective.
jehovah`s witnesses make a big deal about the 2 or 3 witnesses in judicial decisions yet they ignore that evidence when it suits them.. firstly :.
regarding the length of a generation matthew ch.1:17 gives a strong clue ,their are 3 lots of 14 generations mentioned which equal 42 generations from the time of abraham to jesus .. watchtower publications give abrahams birth as 2018 bc......they also give jesus birth as of 2 bc a period of 2016 years .
2016 yrs.
as I said on another thread: the wt generation is an anointed generation with 2, perhaps more overlapping groups, Anointed means the 144 000 of Rev. 14, the "- undefiled with woman-" The Freddy Franzes, that are not held to the reproductive father, son, grandson generation model, and then these are the sterile wt groups, wt:--oops.
added: Jesus of course said that the generation would survive the destruction and would go on producing . the wt anointed generation, as charted, is supposed to be dead before the destruction, taken to heaven. From its conception, the wt anointed generation was a bible-doctrinal stillbirth, , the end of the 1914 line.
anyone else hear about this.
as all j-dubs know, whenever someone complains about how long the "new system" is taking too arrive, they use the excuse that jehovah works on his own time.
quite a few times during the public talks, i've heard speakers say the phrase "1000 years to us is only one day to jehovah" (my parents never stop talking about this).
James, imagine if you lived forever, the shortening of the time impression. It affects the reaction time too, perhaps that is why prophecies are never fulfilled, wt puts them too close. The overlapping generation groups end at ~2016, that is only 2 and 1/2 hours away, awake! waky waky. or wacky?

2 Peter 3:8 - ".........one day [is] with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." King James Version
According to this, god's time observation would both be very detailed, like in slow motion, and rapid like in a sped-up film. Acts 1:7 says we can't understand time, and scientists agree, is it a 4th dimension? or just sequencing of events, locations?. An eternal creator would not live in a knife-edg -size "now" present, of a non-stop movement through time - as we do, and if he really inspired the bible or the GB, he would do so in understandable, true terms, which he has not done. obviously. or?
The fast part of the scripture debunks the slow part, that jws like to use as an excuse for their failed prophecies.

Creatures that live in the oceans must feel that electro-chemical mix to be just perfect. we have also evaporation, a near perfect desalination process, condensation in clouds, rain, snow, which gives us non swimmers the pure stuff we crave. perhaps not specially designed, but that is how the laws that came through the big bang made it turn out, or in. so: Move to a river, the Nile, or the Severn, which has great "fresh"water surfing.-- Did not wt buy a "translation office" at it's banks?
for the first time in 108 years, the chicago cubs won the mlb 2016 world series, which is not news to too many of us.
but the volunteers at warwick bethel have an interesting opportunity today.
they can congratulate tony morris on seeing another chicago cub win.
The Brooklyn Dodger aka wt did not have a real touchdown since 1879, they play in the wrong league, bible religiosity, should have moved to the boondocks right then, not 2016. Their star performer Rutherford, actually moved Beth partially to California earlier than 1957.
i know most of us have probably figured this out already, but remember the good old days where you could only count full hours in the ministry?.
then one of the gb get some "new light" from their ass and proclaim that they lovingly will allow people to report 30mins, then even 15mins of time.
this was, supposedly, so that the old and infirm could have a joy in the ministry and report what little they could do.
that is how 10 minutes per year for every inhabitant of the planet everywhere are arrived at, 10 minutes of kingdom good news now, and for a 100 years.

I just had the brainwave why flipper's 20-30 year procreating generation has been changed by wt to the overlapping anointed: The anointed, according to Rev. 14 (I know, it's symbolic, but) , are "undefiled with women", non-procreating.--They are the childless anointed overlappers like Fred. Franz, not T.Morris. Franz was alive in 108, but 5 years away from his baptism in 1913, 6 from 1914. Wt still celebrates their home run of 1914, althoug the replay shows they cheated, only the date was real, the rest fluff. wt dropped the ball in 1914, and they know it, wt has not had real a hit since 1879, really not ever.
jehovah's witnesses believe:.
1. man was created in 4026 bce.
2. a global flood occurred in 2370 bce.
These details should be brought up again and again. We wish wt made it mandatory for all public speakers to sign a pledge to believe these dates, before going up on the platform; perhaps then they would have to make it womandatory. The Egyptians were building pyramids while the flood water overlapped the top of everest.
