More Underwater Civilisations
by Earnest inat 21:00 gmt tonight there is a programme on channel 4 entitled "flooded kingdoms of the ice age".
author graham hancock scours the seas for evidence of the earliest civilisations, which he believes were submerged when the polar ice caps melted at the end of the last ice age.
in tonight's programme hancock makes some finds off the west coast of malta and along the "bimini road", a megalithic structure in the atlantic.. no doubt those who believe in a universal flood will continue to do so and those who don't will not, but it will add to the larger picture that we have on this subject.. earnest.

Blood Transfusion Increases Mortality in Heart Attacks
by Earnest ini understand that the objection to blood transfusions by jehovah's witnesses is purely a scriptural one.
whether or not there are medical benefits to avoiding blood transfusions is, or should be, irrelevant.
however, for those who are not convinced by jw understanding of the scriptures in this regard, and those who don't believe either in the bible and/or in god, the fact that blood transfusion is associated with increased mortality in heart attacks may be of interest.. a systematic search of studies published between january 1, 1966, and march 31, 2012, was conducted using medline, embase, cinahl, scopus, web of science, and cochrane central register of controlled trials databases.

Why God Never Received a PhD
by Earnest ini am a believer in god and would like to assure those other believers on this forum that no disrespect is intended by this post.
i just found it amusing and so am sharing it :.
he had only one major publication.it wasn't in english.it had no references.it wasn't published in a refereed journal.some even doubt he wrote it by himself.it may be true that he created the world, but what has he done since then?his cooperative efforts have been quite limited.the scientific community has had a hard time replicating his results.he never applied to the ethics board for permission to use human subjects.when one experiment went awry he tried to cover it up by drowning his subjects.when subjects didn't behave as predicted, he deleted them from the sample.he rarely came to class, just told students to read the book.some say he had his son teach the class.he expelled his first two students for learning.although there were only ten requirements, most of his students failed his tests.his office hours were infrequent and usually held on a mountain top.no record of working well with colleagues.

The "Jo Ho Ho" project
by Earnest inthese are photos of the felixstowe kingdom hall in suffolk , england , after it received some free decorations from an anonymous group calling themselves the johoho project.
it is thought that the group limit their activities to felixstowe at the moment although other cells throughout the country are thought to be lying dormant.
the police are recording it as a religious hate crime (which tells you more about our crazy government than it does about jws)..

Codex Sinaiticus
by Earnest inthis is just a little bit of trivia for those who are interested.
yesterday i visited the british library and revisited the area where they have the biblical manuscripts (and many others).
they have both the codex sinaiticus and alexandrinus which for a long time were the oldest manuscripts available and are still the oldest (almost) complete mss of the bible.

Free to remarry?
by Earnest ini wonder if anyone can help with this information?
i seem to recall that if a husband or wife commits adultery and is divorced, is it necessary for the innocent party to agree before that one can be reinstated?
regardless of that answer if the person is reinstated and wishes to remarry do they need the agreement of the innocent party before they can remarry if they wish to maintain a good standing in the congregation?.
