What's on your mind?

[DragonFox91]

My eye keeps tearing up! Started yesterday!

 

[DragonFox91]

Listening to Harry Potter analysis/history/etc. videos on YouTube. I want to re-read the books! I haven't since Deathly Hallows came out!

I wonder, in the ancient past, how many people practiced polygamy or polyandry. What was considered cheating or not, since commitment was more fluid back then. Food for thought

In the past we could have had something similar to what some animals still do.

"Very few monkeys are monogamous; most live in groups in which the access to females is determined by rank. Sometimes, a sole dominant male forestalls all the females; this is harem polygyny (like in the case of the gelada monkeys), while in other cases, more adult males coexist in the groups (multi-male polygyny), like in the case of the most macaques."

Kind of like how kings were said to have many wives and concubines, for instance, the Biblical Solomon. I think human society progressed to mostly being monogamous because it better incentivizes the average person to fully participate in their community.

Ever read about the Bonos? Very interesting.

I wonder when monogamy because popular. Probably around the time of Jesus.

”What's on your mind?" thread

Absolutely nothing except the spring breeze, that makes me feel fine, that’s blowing through the jasmine in my mind…(as I leave it all behind for an overdue getaway)

I will have to dig deeper on what happended when they encountered dark matter, as nothing solid or interesting have popped up. The same goes for Stephen Hawking's warnings.

Look up the God Particle for Hawkings.

As for the students, they experienced demonic activity and possession. Remember Christ’s words.

When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it passes through waterless places seeking rest, and finding none it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’

And when it comes, it finds the house swept and put in order. Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and dwell there. And the last state of that person is worse than the first.”

The house is empty and devoid of His presence. There’s nothing to combat them.

Everyone, please continue to pray for a former member here and her husband as their financial problems just will not stop. It was hard for me to finally start saying no to helping , but they still need it. Please pray that the Lord will make a way for them. No one deserves this kind of uncertainty and struggle.

Also, please pray for me to get through the next three day shifts at work. They will not be easy, and after that I only have 48 hours off before another three. =/

Luckily Erin will be in place of the normal guy on my crew just next door to me. Her presence is a delight, although for a different reason than it was for me before. ... Let us just say a certain kind of undesirable atmosphere is sure to be lessened if not negated altogether when she is there on my crew.

Praying brother!

My grandma says I can meet one at church. She's so naive.

I want to say that I am sorry for not showing enough grace towards you. This is painful for you and I need to be more loving and supportive. I will be moving forward.

 

[GodDoesListen55]

I don't feel good.

 

[Saucy]

I don't feel good.

Praying you feel better!

I think I've seen the thread and know whom you mean. My heart goes out to them for sure.

An unrelenting attack would lead me to question what permits the devourer to destroy the crop. It cannot exist without legal rights and that’s usually the result of sin. A devouring spirit steals the bread and they’re unable to hold it.

When you have situations that are unresponsive to prayer you must consider if misalignment is the culprit and remedy the problem.
