  • Genesis seemed like it was two stories mashed up to one.

    One had a mass of people already created, like you said but another story where Adam is first person.

    My punishment is greater than I can bear! Today you have driven me away from the soil, and I shall be hidden from your face; I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and anyone who meets me may kill me.

    People already existed or is it assumed Eve populated the world in some way?










  • This is what I am talking about…

    If you voted with pitchfork in hand, then you see the candidates you voted for win, would you put down your pitchfork?

    If the people really believed an election is rigged then they might riot. But logically if a person or group is in power wouldn’t it makes sense to let one side lose to prevent a riot?

    That’s not what happens.

    Next election the people will get back what they lost. This repeats over and over so the people all blame each other while the people truly in power makes money out of all of them.

    by controlling the media they can redirect the people’s hate on each other rather then those in power. Boomers vs Gen X, All Lives Matter vs Black Lives Matter, Red vs Blue, Texas vs California, taxes vs no taxes, etc.




  • I read a theory somewhere that the Mongols use of dead bodies as weapons is major factor creating the black plague.

    This theory is on Wikipedia:

    Some studies indicate the Black Death, which devastated Europe in the 1340s, may have traveled from China along the trade routes of the Mongol Empire. In 1347, the Genoese possessor of Caffa, a great trade emporium on the Crimean Peninsula, came under siege by an army of Mongol warriors under the command of Janibeg. After a protracted siege during which the Mongol army was reportedly withering from disease, they decided to use the infected corpses as a biological weapon. The corpses were catapulted over the city walls, infecting the inhabitants.[142][143] The Genoese traders fled, transferring the plague via their ships into the south of Europe, from where it rapidly spread. The total number of deaths worldwide from the pandemic is estimated at 75–200 million with up to 50 million deaths in Europe alone.[103]
