CAMELS 🐪 🐫🐪🐫🐪🐫 Camels What Do You Know? < Alone in the Desert? Although folklore has it that the camel stores water in its hump, this is not the case. It is generally thought that the camel can get along without water for a prolonged period because of its ability to retain much of the water that it drinks. A contributory factor is the design of the nose, which enables the animal to extract water vapor when exhaling. The camel can tolerate a loss of water of 25 percent of its weight, in contrast to 12 percent for humans. It does not lose moisture by perspiration as rapidly as do other creatures, because its body temperature can vary 6° C. (11° F.) with…

The Wood Frog is amazing! Does not freeze! Believe it or not.... An Amazing Animal Cryobiology is the study of biological material that is at below normal temperatures. One example of this material is the body of the wood frog in winter. This amazing animal survives months of hibernation with much of its body frozen and without a beating heart. In most other animals, when the heart stops beating the animal is dead. This is not true for wood frogs, however. Despite the almost complete shut-down of their bodies, the frogs aren't harmed by freezing and become active again when the warmer temperatures of spring arrive. The wood frog is a fascinating organism to stud…

Amazing Facts about Ladybugs 🐞 Can there be a more adorable beetle than a lady bug? This is one bug that you wouldn’t mind crawling on the palm of your hand. These bugs or should we say beetles, are scientifically called Coccinellidae and belong to the family of beetles. In North America they are known as ladybugs and in U.K. they are called ladybirds (because they can fly like birds). But the common names preferred by the entomologists are lady beetles or ladybird beetles. Other uncommon names for these bugs are lady fly, God’s cow, ladyclock and lady cow  Their size ranges from 1mm to 10mm and there are over 5000 species of this insect out of which 450 are …

Is the Trinity a Pagan Concept? No! Because: i) The Babylonians and Assyrians believed in triads of gods, which were three separate gods (polytheism) governing other gods. This is totally different from the Trinity of only one God (monotheism) with three persons within the one Godhead. ii) Triads of gods pre-date Christianity by about 700 years and were far removed from Israel.. iii) Some pagan ideas have some truth in them, such as the pagan Flood legends. Just because pagans spoke of a concept that remotely resembles a biblical concept, does not mean that Christians stole it from the pagans. iv) JWs quote Hislop’s The Two Babylons to support their…

In Jehovah’s Witness congregations, victims, parents, or anyone else, have always been free to report allegations of child sexual abuse to the police. The troubling reality is that many chose not to do it. They alerted congregation elders and went no further. Why? Because they thought that by so doing, they might be bringing reproach on God’s name and the Christian congregation. That situation has been resolved. The May 2019 study edition of the Watchtower, reviewed via Q & A participation at all congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses—it will escape nobody—addressed it specifically: “But what if the report is about someone who is a part of the congregation an…

Harmony of the Universe - a Design of Our Creator, Jehovah God The director. A melody of David. "The heavens are declaring the glory of God; The skies above proclaim the work of his hands." Psalm 19:1 Jehovah God is both the Source of understanding and the Supreme Example of its use. The splendid coordination and functioning of the universe, in which each creation serves a particular and harmonious purpose, with no clashes or problems resulting from a lack of discernment on their Creator’s part, manifest God’s understanding. (Job 38:36; Ps 136:5-9; Pr 3:19, 20; Jer 10:12, 13) Does that not warm your heart, Your Heavenly Father is …

Beautiful Iguanas 🦎 Created by Jehovah God! Amazing! Photograph by @thomaspeschak This is a marine iguana, but I think they should be called ‘Ocean Godzilla’ instead. These are our planet’s only lizards that feed in the ocean and despite their fierce, dragon like appearance they are very sensitive to climate change. They rely exclusively on cold water seaweeds for nourishment which die off quickly as the water becomes too warm. Thank you Jehovah for these iguanas 🦎

Jugez-vous sur les apparences? Jugez-vous un livre à sa couverture ? L'impression pourrait être trompeuse. Pour éviter d'être déçu, il vaut mieux regarder le contenu. Ce principe est illustré par un célèbre personnage du folklore turc : Nasreddin Hodja (hodja signifie “ enseignant ”). Il est “ à la fois rusé et naïf, sage et fou [...]. Religieux, il a cependant des travers humains ”. On l'a présenté comme “ la victime invincible de l'ironie du sort ”. — John Noonan, Les contes du Hodja, Aramco World, septembre-oc…

Jay-Z’s Team Roc Helps Florida Boy Who Refused to Stand for Pledge of Allegiance Get Charges Dropped
by Guest Indiana- 0 replies

A month after a Florida middle school student was arrested, charged and suspended from school after he refused to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation has helped him get his charges dismissed. On Feb. 4, Jabari Talbot told his substitute teacher at Lawton Chiles Middle Academy that he won’t stand for the pledge because the American flag is racist and the national anthem is offensive to Black people, Spectrum Bay News 9 reported. (In a court filing against the school, the boy and his attorney dispute that account, saying at no point in that exchange did the boy call the flag or anthem “racist,” or use that term at all. Rather, the filing says Jabari …

JW Brazil:Justice opposes parents of Jehovah's Witnesses and approves blood transfusion for children

Justice has authorized an premature newborn to receive blood transfusions, as opposed to the child's parents, who are Jehovah's Witnesses, a religion that prohibits the procedure. The ban occurred after maternity leave, in Goiânia, to come in with a request. The information is from G1. The child was born just 28 weeks and weighs just over 1 kg. Therefore, he was accepted as a bed for neonatal intensive care (ICU). The medical report shows that the baby has anemia and may need a "transfusion" at any time, as it does not show improvement. Judge Clauber Costa Abreu stated in his judgment that the release of blood transfusion is a right to life for a person who has …

Based on official documentation dated March 1, 2019, the Russian federation has seized the Jehovah’s Witness administrative center campus worth $30.4 million US dollars. The property has been transferred to the Federal State-funded institution Almazov National Medical Research of the Ministry of Healthcare of the Russian Federation.

Poetry of thanksgiving.... My soul, pleased with life, Praise the penitent, glorious God! My Soul for You Teaches, And today, tomorrow and always!

SOMETIMES.... Sometimes I think, we forget that Jehovah loved us 1st, loved us even before we were born, as we were gestating. We forget, how loves us while we are In the very process of so and the waits for us to come to him. He waits compassionately with hope, with kindness and with hope and perhaps of course the discipline we might have earned, for the wrongdoing, but it'll always be the right discipline to the right degree, not overly harsh and not bury us and forever harm. That's the beautiful thing about Jehovah. ❤ .•*¨`*•..¸♥☼♥¸.•*¨`*•. ❤

A man has woken up! It's April, it's spring day, And they all woke up again! In the "sleep of death" the world slowly descends, Spiritual in her mind is fog! She does not discern the remaining time, He does not have "oil," or he has too little! Towards death he is walking step by step, To days of trouble and torment! Today messengers go home from home, From the "sleep of death" the world wakes up! But the world of Jehovah does not care, She does not want to love him! She is locked in the shell, And the devil sings to him, "Nani, nani!" From her memory she eats worms, And from the "life book", the years are out! There are wo…
