I believe the ladies chousing smart funny clever strong men as mates determine the intelligence of our speeches. They still look for these things in a mate today and always will hold true to that instinct

Evolution and Man's Intelligence
by frankiespeakin ini was thinking this morning that we some where along the evolutionary trail we as a species developed a superior intelligence to other species.
where will it eventually lead,,i mean the evolution of our species could take a sharp right or left turn not to mention a complete u-turn.. will we as a species ever keep progressing in our explots of technology or will we start a reversal?
will we come to a realization of some sort and see all this grasping to learn more and more as a waste of time and start a reversal in that direction of our evolution as far as intelligence goes?

Catholic Answers comment on the REASONING book
by Dogpatch instrategies of the jehovah's witnesses .
there may be no religious organization that engages in more publishing, proportionately to its membership, than the watch tower bible and tract society (watch tower society or wts for short)?the publishing arm of the jehovah?s witnesses.
each month jehovah?s witnesses (jws) distribute millions of books, magazines, and pamphlets, in dozens of languages.

Questions on Adam & Eve?
by kls init has been a long time since i opened a bible but these questions keep coming up in my head so i thought i would ask our all knowing here.
according to the bible adam & eve ate the forbidden fruit and became embarrassed of their bodies so they covered up.
this makes no sense since they had been naked and where having sex so why were they embarrassed?

Willy,
According to the fairy tale, they were perfect, they didn't have any flaws
Recoveringjw,
I'm sorry, I missed your statement or I would have replayed before now.
The creation myth of genesis does not say they had no flaws nor does it say that they were perfect, the WT declares that. Good, evil and nakedness existed in the garden before Adam and eve could comprehend them. The mythology is one representing a new understanding of what already was.
kls,
It is the WT that says the bible is literal, not the bible and not me. It is what it is, old works compiled and canonized by the Catholic Church. But as in all mythology it express transcendental truths of the human experience.

Willy, i understand that but it still does answer why they would be embarrassed of each other being naked . They were having sex and the only ones alive so why? They weren't worried of having sex but they couldn't see each other naked ? It just all seems made up.
The Bible does not say that they were "embarrassed" of each other being naked. (Gen 2.25) uses shame. (Gen 3.7) the story said that they, like animals, didn't know that they were naked and like animals they could not sin or do wrong. Adam became aware and ashamed of his own nakedness and eve hers. The end of innocence. I believe this story is a representation of the moment of human enlightenment. Of course it's made up. It's not teaching history it's teaching the nature of the relationships between man, the universe and God.
I think what conflicts you most about the story might be, that it was taught to you as a history of actual events. Teaching it now to your children you see that belief as absurd and you may be having difficulty separating what you were taught the bible said from what the bible said.

As i understand the metaphor, the forbidden tree contained the the knowledge of good and evil, right and wrong, perfect and flawed, and so on. When the fruit was eaten Adam and Eve became aware of there flaws and filet shame.
