  The Amazing Andamanese People

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. current

  i recently watched a documentary about andamanese people on youtube.. the andaman archipelago is officially ruled by india and lies in the bay of bengal, between the eastern coast of india and burma.. the indigenous people are or were stone age people, hunter-gatherers.. they have the general appearance and stature of african pygmy people.. there are 4 main surviving groups: great andaman (made up of several tribes, although the remaining people are few in number and have discarded tribal boundaries), jarawa, onge, and sentinelese.

  i've read a bit about their languages (only on wikipedia - tsk!

  tsk!

  Why is the white race so different?

  by Crazyguy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what i'm saying is the white race is the only one that has a verity of eye and hair colors , so what gives?

  is it that this race was influenced genetically by a group of pre humans that didn't mix with other races?

  This is a trick question, right?

  Ask the OP, Crazyguy, The Ashkenazi surely were considered part of the white race?

  Freud, Marx, Einstein? probably more Nobel laureates per capita?

  no mention whatsoever that it was watchtower themselves that strongly hinted towards this date.

  instead they blame those who "put their trust in a date, not jehovah".. let's recap... .

  The ongoing 1975 affair showed some jw members at their finest, and wt at it's worst. This theater piece when analyzed, will cement that fact; hopefully all the way to the cemetery.

  follow up for above: Some of these 1975 zealots were so qualified. that their companies, like IBM in at least one case, set them up to do their work "by wire" from the remote location "where the final need is great".

  These now maligned "servers of a date" (hello wt!) are the ones that , in the NW, instead of moving to their lakeside resort, were ready to take on the next bible dated task, : The seven year "marking of bones and cadavers" that was to precede the cleanup, and much later waterfront lounging.

  There should be a great need to stand up and leave in protest from the oldtimer section, when, or after, hat character assassination is shown. after all, when it makes you sick, ...., and when nature calls....

  Those that sold houses, suspended their businesses, semi-retired, moved, were not serving for a date. That is a libelous classification. They were the zealous most sincere, and not stupid ones, that were willing to give it [almost] all in final spurt in the "work that will never be repeated"

  wt is not just blaming, but slandering it's former, most devoted followers.

  but hey, if "jehovah" can do it to "Jonah", wt can do it to jws.

  In the context Paul seems to use the case of a widow, that is no longer under her late husband's authority, or law.

  A dying person becomes free of accountability for his sins, because there is no way to make any action stick. Now, about those scrolls that are opened? and judged according to their works that are remembered? ?

  It seems that at death, any debt, any accountability for sin, inherited or accumulated becomes simply unenforceable, Puff-gone. Perhaps even more so, if the death, sin is only symbolic.

  WTBtS uses the reported free hours of jws as proof of their noncommercial charity status. so, they have, to my knowledge, never disciplined anyone for fudging the hours, upward.

  Jws imagine they are working for the kingdom government. they would be on salary in the real visible world. time clocks in government departments?

  It`s better to be a live coward than a dead hero "

  Trouble is, in some quarters, there is real contempt for cowards, turncoats. No quarters given, no guaranty there is a real choice.

  hello all - so me and stuckinarut2 are at the state library proving to ourselves that wt has it all wrong re: 607. i've read at length jwfacts, jwsurvey and crisis of conscience that all go into the subject and i've just downloaded gentile times reconsidered.. while it is fabulous to have someone else compile all the research and evidence for you, it is quite another to see it in print for yourself - and so, here we are.. while we wait for our array of books i couldn't help but share with you how the state library has catalogued jewish history - 586 bc to 70 ad.

  no mention of 607 as a key date as far as the library's catalogue is concerned!!

  evidence before we have our books!!.

  ...[Jews] went north into Ashkenazi territory (which became Poland, Austria, and Germany). These Jews mixed with the people ....the last four letters of Ashkenazi is where "Nazi" comes from,..."

  David, I think your sources are going astray here, Nazi comes from the "National S. D. A. Partei", abbreviated to Nazi, like Commi.

  talking of Poland, the City of Danzig was not founded by the northern tribe of Dan either.(as British Israel would have it,) As you know, these tribes went to North America instead (check Salt Lake City Utah.) ha ha.

  Your good comments of the chaotic history in the land was confirmed by this week's wt assigned bible reading, Jeremiah 38-41, where after the "fall" of Jerusalem, stragglers returned to the land and fought it out before tapering off into Egypt, a fluid situation, where to peg the 607 or whatever marker? Jesus in Acts 1:6,7 "...it is not given to you to understand time..."
