  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?

  An alternative theory is that only blondes are dumb enough to stay in northern Europe. bohm:

  yeah, and from the Orkneys to the Alps, the Caucasians created a fantastic Civilisation that is responsible for most of the advances we have seen (with Chinese, others working in the tandem, unknown).

  Now, the others, having basked in the sun, tanning in the process, are streaming into the northern wastelands to take over. Dark surfaces , skin, radiate heat more efficiently, so bundle up, and over millionenennia, will that lighten the skin? Try cross breeding instead.

  Bertrand Russell's Teapot orbit as an Syllogism.

  All inner solar Planet orbits are spaced ~.3 AU apart ( Mercury .4; Venus .7; Earth 1.0 )

  The next orbit possible for my invisible teapot is .3 AU further out, therefore at 1.3 AU (halfway to Mars ~1.6 ) therefore:

  My undetectable china teapot is an inner solar planet.

  Beware of any wt invisible heavenly claims. If Bertrand can do it, Charles T can. (the tea can).

  Apostasy endorsed in this yesterday's Watchtower Study

  by doubtfull1799 in

  “there may be occasions when it would be good for us to reconsider a choice or decision.

  it could be when the prevailing circumstances change.

  jehovah altered his decision at times when circumstances changed.

  They make a sly reference to a vow (as compared to a mere decision) that has to be obeyed, par 18: "-- he expects us to follow through on other decisions ( like vows? dedication?) that we make [made] on his guidance.

  strange that wt will disfellowship people for disagreeing on doctrinal decisions , they made, that they later change, but will not automatically reinstate those that had it right in the first place,

  The gist is, if you make the decision to allow wt to make doctrinal, prophetic decision for you, don't blame them for you being so gullible.

  Bertrand Russell sumed up religious belief with his teapot:

  jl: It is telling that Russell (not the wt thinker), would pitch the analogy of a teapot at 1.3 AU against the possibility of a creator, that little ~.6 AU space for the perhaps 50 billion lightyears extent of the universe. (and the creator would be beyond that).

  Oddly enough there would be a theoretical opening at 1.3 AU orbit for a body, the way there is a 30 AU exception opening for Neptune in the Bode scheme of doubling planetary spacings. Russell's ruse? anyway,

  talking of argumentation,

  Belittling the grandeur of the Creation is not bolstering the strength of a "the universe created itself " argument .

  Lets be honest, not a little leery of the resurrected ones????

  by James Mixon in

  2. friends

  maybe i have watched too many zombie movies but i would sleep with one eye open, inquire to see what is your favored menu,do you sleep walk, are your body parts functioning properly (i would hate to shake your hand and it fall off).

  your wife never married after 10 years and now you are back, can you perform in the marriage bed?

  ?it would be hard for me to sleep at nights with someone that have been dead for over one year sleeping next to me.

  since the resurrected ones do not marry, then we must presume they would be without, navel, sex hormones and other means or need to initiate mating rituals,--then my trophy wife will be finally free from unwanted passes? but then on second thought,

  the resurrected ones will be like angels, and look what they precipitated, before the flood, a disaster even everest could not escape dry, (tears of laughter)

  This is a misunderstanding of the analogy. The analogy is there to demonstrate why one cannot make appeals to faith. It is not indicative of God's existence.

  Saename: I understood well, but wanted to bring the important point into the discussion, that in all this we always have to deal a priori with the existence and details of the universe. whether it created itself or not, . I agree with you, the bible can not be inspired, god does not intervene. But: will we have a jarring revelation?

  very well written post. wt logic seems to be designed to appeal only to simpletons, and allow only them in.

  On the odd gumball / god's influence argument, - The existence of all these gumballs argues in favour of a creator, one more or less is just icing on the cake. Schroedinger's gumballs?
