Has China Already Become the Equal of the USA - superseding the Knorr/Franz March of World Powers?
by fulltimestudent ini would personally say, this was going to happen, but not quite yet.
but then i noticed this recently published story in the south china morning post (a newspaper once owned by rupert murdoch, but now owned by jack ma, one of china's richest men).. quote:.
how china has become america’s equal, as showcased at a harvard forumauthor: robert delaneyon the campus of harvard business school this past weekend there was little doubt among corporate leaders and investors gathered for an annual conference that china had arrived as an equal to the united states.keynote speeches, panel discussions and a business pitch competition at the 20th annual harvard china forum convened under the theme “sharing the road ahead” in english.. and, i got to thinking about donald trump's reversal of all the things he said he was going to do to china in his campaign speeches, and the reality now that he acts as president of the usa.

To cement this overlapping claim, China now controls de facto all the islands in the South China-, aka West Philippine sea. The philippines are a past Colony of the US, so it is here strengthening its claim as the seventh World, since the territorial claims of China and the Philippines over lap. see post 2 above. ha ha.

Would human settlement of Mars invalidate Bible prophecy?
by truthseeker ini don't think this topic has been discussed before but yesterday i read something to the effect that trump wants a human mission to mars to be completed within his presidency.. with that being said, the watchtower teaches that what started on earth ends on earth, in other words, the fall of adam and eve would end with the passing of the 1,000 year millennial reign when christ destroys all his enemies, rebellious "perfect" humans, and the devil and his demons who are let out the abyss for a short while.
he then hands the kingdom back to his father.
an elder in my old congregation once told us during a public talk that he was an ardent astronomer but then referenced the scripture where it says, "the earth he has given to the sons of men" (psalms 115:16).

He will destroy this present universe and create a New heaven and earth
do not take that too seriously, he did not flood the ancient Heavens and Earth either, Everest, kangaroos and all.

The status quo will go on in wt land. China is just an extension of the Anglo American world power, Hong Kong, the Boxer rebellion quelled,-- the same way that Britain is considered an extension of the Roman Empire, the bath, Hadrian's wall and all.

the way the Watchtower explains it is that the 'vicinity' of the Earth refers to the whole universe
new to me, any references?
WITH ALL THE RESTRAINT THAT THE EQUIPMENT WILL IMPOSE there, WHO NEEDS SATANIC INFLUENCE TO FEEL STRESSED?

Circumcision....Perfect Adam....Uncircumcised....1st century Christians...circumcision ont required
by blondie ini know this has been discussed many times, but i was watching a news story about female genital mutilation (not female circumcision) and segued mentally into why the hassle about male babies having to be circumcised, christians especially.
even the wts flipflops on this...... if adam, the first perfect man, not under the jewish law code, was given a foreskin by god as an aspect of his physical perfection, why then do so many "christian" people have their boy babies circumcised?.
if a health issue....why did god create the perfect man, adam, with a foreskin?.

To have fulfilled the law Jesus must have been circumcised, Both he and Adam (during his "perfect" period) seemed to have had a remarkable restraint and reluctance to expose the member to use.so. Is that a mark of perfection?
Given the choice, choose circumcision, the freedom to grow.
exebitionism among early Christians? , Timothy must have been proud of his new "fresh air" appearance so as not to stumble the jews? show and tell?

Perhaps as part of the "imperfection, cookie mold dent" aka bad mutation, the penis / foreskin size ratio reached a point where the foreskin did not allow full erection.? ouch.
Corrective surgery would only hurt once, and stayed around as a preventative procedure cloaked as a holy hallmark.

there is no such thing as "Bible prophecy."
at least not a valid, real, or validated prophecy, that could be rendered invalid.

Visiting Bethel (an old memory)

On one trip to Wallkill I saw a column of vultures circle over there, I thought: " already?" Wallkill at that time had a strange hippy colony at the corner of the entrance road. the tour showed the home projects of the bethelites I looked for home-build aircraft, Icarus anyone? , nope. hey showed a book trimming machine with flailing knives in action I thought: not a nice way to go. Super fast fingers in the packing department, the able young brother was still able to scan for that super sister's approval. Eating at Bethel? already described, a survivalist experience. Strangest in Brooklyn, being herde between two masonite walls in Columbia heights while being lectured by a substitute local, one look outside and one hearty handshake by an unidentified old timer Brother Friend? hopefully. amazed at the luxury of the nearby wt hotels. Patterson? looking at the place from a setup across the street that was all. Abroad. The cleanest bathroom in a city of millions.

one another You need stepping stones before you take a loooong trip like that.
VI: --This was the big conceptual divide in the US Moon program, Von Braun wanted a setup of permanent stations, above the Earth, above the Moon, and 3 type of shuttles for the 3 type of trips. Congress with it's 4 year cycle of funding nixed that. People went to the moon with a car packed on a fat rocket and on return splashed down almost naked on a parachute (carrying a bag of pebbles) leaving no re-usable infrastructure behind.
Trump is no von Braun. More important than engines are brakes. I doubt that even in a century we will be ready to really do it. bible prophecy? the overlapping generation will expire by 2075 or 2125. May be going to heaven will have a new meaning bey then?.
