elon musk has called one of the thai cave rescue divers a 'paedo' on twitter.. this could prove to be a very costly post should the diver sue him for defamation.. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/jul/15/elon-musk-british-diver-thai-cave-rescue-pedo-twitter.

Elon Musk is a fellow New Zealander. Quite frankly, to most kiwis he's a Johnny-come-lately embarrassment.
I thought he was from Canada
Is he not an African? I thought his kid-sized capsules were a great idea, even flexible versions if the passages really were too narrow. But, obviously the boys walked to their refuge place, not wiggle in, having to wiggle out. (bunk by divers). Lots of pedos in Thailand, just by averages Musk might be right. But that sounds like sour grapes by him, of having been shut out by someone eager to keep the spotlight, protect his turf, even while keeping the boys from a safer, more pleasant way out. Egos clashing, never good.

trump - putin summit today, putin said : "cold war has ended, difficulties in us - russia relations don't have any objective reasons" .

it's gonna be another stunt, too much interests in keeping the worldwide weapons race and the inmense profits.....

Poker player meeting chess player. We just saw Putin on the platform, and the world's best reaching up to him, eager to shake his hands. Now all hope, Trump does not bet the store to score.

How did Jesus keep his beard looking so neat?

i have a full beard and with a pair of electric clippers, i can't come close to having my beard looking at good and trim as jesus in the picture.

i wonder how jewish barbers did it or perhaps his beard was more scruffy than is shown.

does jesus even look jewish?
waton

he had a perfect beard, had ladies ministering to him, spend nights with the Samaritan woman, (at least in her city)
so if he can walk on water, give him a break.

i’m watching a discovery movie about the mosquito.

scientists tell us that mosquitos are the most dangerous creature on earth.

nothing kills more than the mosquito.

wondrous creation---right? Glad he saw fit to have to of those little xyz preserved alive through the flood! Thank you Noah!
The best connection between mosquitos and wood is not via a boat that floats but wood fibres that fly.

The bread pan illustration is totally flawed

it just suddenly occured to me today.... you know the jws always say about adams sin being passed on to his descendants that its like you have a bread pan with a dent in it and that every loaf of bread will then have a dent?

well that's fine for bread, cos your using the same pan.

but that's not how genetics work?.
waton

may be that is why no bread pans are used in making the memorial flat breads ? flaws in the eaters is enough? . perfection passed on by male inheritance too? lucky ladies, unaffected by all these male story spinners.

mosquitos are the most dangerous creature on Earth. Nothing kills more than the mosquito. NOTHING..
When I was mentally in, (mentally period) I questioned god's wisdom to confer creative powers to Satan. allowing him to torture with the itch. Mosquitos also violate the blood laws, suckers.
cofty would call it the work of a moral monster.
In any case, imagine if we had no predation, we would have no migration.

Come around my office at 5pm on a Friday. You will believe! M.
Another version would be the wt meetings; Coming back to life: the lively conversations after the almost deathlike dragging - ons during the program.
For there to be conscious life after death, there would have to be continuous recording of brain activity, because, if you go out of your mind, or loose your mind, your memory is gone, how could it be restored, or be stored in real time right now? where and how. so wait and see.

AFTER you die, other people WILL STILL BE ALIVE!
and it will be the same organic life that started ~4 bllion years ago. so, if you want to continue to have, or be a slice of that growing pie, make sure your genes are woven back into the cloth.(mix metaphors) If you are for creation, participate in procreation. pass on life with a passion.

this post is for the lurking dub.

the pimc (physically in, mentally confused) lurker dub.

the guy who reads the watchtower stuff and scratches his head, sure something is amiss but not sure of what’s really happening.. it may also be of some interest to those curious of the nuts and bolts of watchtower’s methods of scripture twisting.. in tonight’s “digging for spiritual gems: (8 min.

"-The Watchtower says, in summary, that Jesus didn’t stop him because there was no congregation yet, the inference being that there was no Organization yet to tell him what he could or couldn’t do-". lms
If wt says said, they are contradicting their past statement on this (nothing new there), because:
According to wt, the transfer of authority from the Jewish system to the Christian system occurred at Pentecost.
The temple scheme was "god's" legit organisation before that; witness Jesus encouraging contributions to it, by the widows.
