  Useless Majors

  i was passing through a very liberal college town recently during rush hour.

  so, i decided to stop for some refreshment at a fine-looking establishment and wait for traffic to die down.

  a young waitress waited on me who probably could have been stevie nicks twin when she was young.

  I'm just wondering what it costs to learn that people in what is now the American Southwest once ate corn.

  Athanasius: No doubt his patrons don't consider solicitation for sex to be criminal behavior.

  To be fair, he has lost half (or more) of his Patreon support since this all went down. One of his biggest donors made clear that he was taking his considerable generosity elsewhere precisely because of Evans actions and attitude. I believe at least one other big money donor also took his $50-a-month away. While I believe Evans is still making good money from the ones that remain, he has taken a significant hit thanks to the ones who could not condone (or would not excuse) his behavior.

  Did Jesus have a Y chromosome?

  by Fisherman in

  even in jesus’s day, humans had chromosomes.

  and so did jesus —because he was human.

  so let’s say jesus took a dna test, his mitochondrial dna would go back to eve but interestingly jc also would inherit dna from sinful adam on his mother’s side because his mother mary passed on to jc dna from both adam and eve.

  Fisherman: Yeah right. All the sworn oaths about him being related to Abraham and Judah and David and Solomon….were lies.

  Well... yeah, aren't they? Mixing a bit of DNA to make him their heir seems like the most technical of technicalities. That lineage was not going to produce a god without the actual intervention of god. So the genealogy was not a scientific or medical record of any kind, it was showing the familial lines that led to the two people who would be allowed to serve as god's parents.

  Starting September 01, 2022, the Angels will help in the ministry work

  2022 governing body update # 6. what exciting news david splane has for all jehovah's witnesses ( who for the last three years were spared the house-to-house preaching work ) '' that we'll return to the ministry september 01, 2022. just in time for our world wide campaign to start bible studies.

  and, i'm sure the angels are excited too, because it will give them opportunities to help us with our ministry.''.

  not only will the witnesses be rusty in their return to the field ministry, the angels in heaven have been sitting idle while the pandemic stopped the house-to-house ministry.

  Relying on the Angels is a bad idea, they're having an absolutely terrible season.

  Fisherman: Jesus genealogy through Mary is listed in the Bible.

  So is his genealogy through Joseph. I doubt Yahweh was worried that Mary would get a blood test and find out that he wasn't the real father.

  The same god who could create people by forming them from clay would have had no issue with inseminating a human female with an offspring made up of completely unique genetic material. Mary was not impregnated in the normal sense, so there is no reason that she would pass along her DNA to Jesus.

  I see he's as aggressive as ever, bullying people while accusing them of bullying him.

  And it appears that his moral barometer is fine with "as long as no one can prove I exploited anyone, I should be good."

  I think you meant to say "4887 replies."

  But I'm all for seeing if we can get to 4,887 pages.

  Toblerone5: I'm french ,do english peoples use this word hoodlum?

  It's a familiar term in the USA, though I recall that long ago it was meant to refer to members of organized crime groups. These days it is used to refer to any common small-time criminal or ne'er-do-well. The word is also often shortened to 'hood.'
