We will all have computer chips embedded in our brains which will download all we think and do and calculate our credit rating during our sleeping time. When we die after living for a biblical age of 900 or more years we will have what's left of our brains placed in jars for eternity. These brains will live on in an imaginary dreamworld.

It is written that "there were giants in the world" for example, and we know that Little John is buried in Derbyshire and he was 9 ft tall, so we have to take into account all that stuff. God is only a scapegoat.

I caught the tail end of it, but basically the modern day Cro_Magnon human has an X chromosome from the Neanderthal (women 2, men 1) and no Y chromosome from Neanderthal. It appears to me therefore that we are somehow out of synch due to interbreeding between Neanderthal and Cro-Magnon. To my way of thinking this might explain why so many people are screwed up and aggressive. This gap in my knowledge I will have to research. certainly we cannot blame God. I seem to recall there are several primate species, maybe as many as 5, who have our human blood groups: O, A, B, AB. You can check this out on the English Blood Transfusion website.Gwil Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03305768121713053837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8881054030497725613.post-13558013746346922702016-04-07T22:54:36.388+02:002016-04-07T22:54:36.388+02:00I dislike the world.I dislike the world.Rachel Phillipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053924416805878169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8881054030497725613.post-58774843947069248492016-04-07T19:54:10.683+02:002016-04-07T19:54:10.683+02:00S/he sure did!
