Re: TWO WITNESSES--What do They Witness About?
There are 2 religns obsessed with obtaining imforemation as they bore deep underground with it.

The lost souls need their kings to punish them as deep with in them selves they know the differences between right and wrong,

It's the thought of equal prosiqution that frees them, judge and be judged as long as there is a fienger to point at another.

It has been noted that, if it is bad, it has money value.

Re: TWO WITNESSES--What do They Witness About?
For thousands of Years, and
it is written all throughout
recorded History, that it
is again the People That
Demand and Ask For Kings and
Judges to be Set over them.

II SAMuEL 8
All the elders of Israel Gathered
together and Came to Samuel at
RAMah; and they said to him
"Behold, you have grown old,
and Your Sons (The Judges)
Do Not walk in your ways. Now,
Appoint for us A KING to Judge
US 'LIKE ALL THE Other NATIONS'
."

Samuel Went and Prayed to the
Lord because this thing displeased
him, and the Lord said to Samuel,
"Listen to the voice of the
People in regard to all that
they say to you, for They
Have not rejected you, but
they have rejected Me from
being King over them."

(So let them have their
cake, and learn this lesson,
and when the Cake they eat
now makes them sick to
their stomachs, then
perhaps they will
Cleave to the truth,
but I personally doubt it.)

bandits threaten, my companions resentful, and coolies grow rebellious .

the wind at night, sings to me of the lost and defeated.

their ghosts abide me with indifference .

That is great to hear because based on mostly what I have seen you write, I respect your words, mind and heart. In regards to the Gnostic Templars, I resigned a month ago because of these very same reasons. In addition, I did not agree with all the teachings and the Grand Preceptors research.

Asexual Ameoba's, the Changing Environment and Population overkill: If there arises within the environment
a need of a stay in human reproduction, Will Men Go Extinct?


[link to www.slate.com] via @slate

"The big exception to the palindromes-are-bad rule is the Y chromosome, the chromosome that makes males male. All humans, male and female, have 23 pairs of chromosomes. Just before cells divide, all these pairs line up along the cellular equator. And in some situations, the chromosomes intertwine their arms and swap genes and DNA, a process called crossing over. Imagine two chromosomes, each with one terrible, deadly mutation in a different gene. If they swap segments of DNA just right, both of the bad genes can end up on one chromosome. That chromosome effectively gets sacrificed and disappears (because any embryo that gets it would die), but at least the other chromosome can live on.
XX females can mend all their chromosomes this way, including both Xs. But in males, crossing over can’t eliminate any bum Y-chromosome DNA because the Y in XY males lacks a partner to trade with: If any mutations pop up, they’re stuck there. (The X in XY males also lacks a trading partner, of course, but only temporarily. Male Xs can still cross over in a future generation inside any XX female descendants. Ys never get that chance.) So whenever malignant DNA arose on Y in the past, cells essentially chopped that DNA out and threw it away."

"So not infrequently, Y overwrites a good gene with a bad one. The process also tends to—whoops!—accidentally delete the DNA between the palindromes.
Is the Y Chromosome causing genetic abnormalities
in what was once a 'perfect' human genome
?

According to Geneticists and Scientists,
Yes, in fact it is.

(Biblically, Eve has Always been the one
to blame for the fall of Mankind, however
I believe that the Cause for the Shortened
life span of humans, disease, etc and
THe 'FAll' is in Truth and Fact Written
Upon the Human Genome, and Real
Culprit is in fact the Y Chromosome
attributed to the Male gender.)

THe Fetus does not begin to differentiate into sexes until 6 weeks of gestation. THe gonads and tubes are undifferentiated at first and could become either Male or Female. The Y chromosome provides instructions for the male phenotype. THis is the reason why Males have nipples.

So, where did the Y Chromosome Come from,
and is it possible to have a living
functional being without a Y chromosome

(that may be shortening our lifespan,
and causing un heard of and not discussed
numbers of genetic abnormalites)
Yes. But it is not however possible
to have a functioning being without
an X Chromosome.

There are Two Genetic Abnormalites
that result in multiple X chromosomes
in the Male Gender and the Female
gender, where the result is a functioning
Human, with little to no signs of
any defect or malfunctioning.
One is TRIPLE XXX syndrome, the other
is XX Male Syndrome

"Female Sperm is a term that refers to a sperm that contains an X chromosome, produced in the usual way by a male, referring to the fact that when such a sperm fertilizes an egg, a female child is born. However, since the late 1980s, scientists have explored how to produce sperm whereby all of the chromosomes come from an adult woman"

"Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction by which offspring arise from a single parent, and inherit the genes of that parent only; it is reproduction which does not involve meiosis, ploidy reduction, or fertilization. The offspring will be exact genetic copies of the parent."

The new research by Baumann and his team reveal that these lizards maintain genetic richness by starting the reproductive process with twice the number of chromosomes as their sexually reproducing cousins."

Bees and Asexual reproduction
"Drone Bees are Males. Queen Bees are females. During the mating flight, Drones from one or more hives deposit sperm inside the queen. When the Queen Bee lays her eggs, she may allow one sperm to enter the egg and fertilize it. That will create a female bee. If she does not allow a sperm to enter the egg, it will be asexual reproduction. It will produce a Drone, or male bee. In spite of the fact that the Queen Bee had sex, Drones, or male bees are produced without sex, or asexually.
In addition, if something happens to the queen and she dies or disappears, the worker bees can lay eggs. They never had sexual contact. All the eggs they lay will turn into Drones. The bees can feed pollen to several of the developing bees and turn them into Queen Bees. One of them kills the rest and then mates with the drones produced from the eggs laid by the workers."

(Wiki Answers)
 Quoting: Le Palma


The Queen Bee only leaves the Hive
when the Bees are Swarming or
during Supersedure, which is
the process where the old Queen
who is old, diseased, or failing
is replaced by a new Queen who
Still has a high output of Pheromone.
When the New Queen is ready, the
workers will kill the Old Queen
by Balling her, or cuddling her
to death.



Sometimes a hive can become Queenless
because the previous Queen showed
signs of inferiority such as
producing broods with a lack
of genetic Diversity that they
succumb to pests or disease and
die off early or suddenly.

Basically, the Queen's genes
are inferior, and the hive
needs a new one.
Usually hives will
have a virgin queen in waiting,
but in some rare cases, if the inferiority
of the present Queen is noticed,
the Rival Queen will then battle
the other Queen to the death.
Even if a Mated Queen is present,
but we See No Eggs, We are
essentially Queenless.

A Queenless hive is not only
highly disorganized, but is
also disfunctional, which will
eventually lead to the collapse
of the entire colony, and eventually
after a span of time, all bees
begin to suffer, their numbers
dwindle to such a sparse amount
that they will eventually
die out all together.

Researchers Find 'Key Ingredient'
That Regulates Termite Caste System

ScienceDaily (July 8, 2010) —
A North Carolina State University entomologist has for the first time shown which specific chemicals are used by some termite queens to prevent other termites in the colony from becoming mommies like themselves.
[link to www.sciencedaily.com]


"Secondary queens don't prevent other termites in the colony from becoming mommies out of spite, Vargo says. It's more a case of keeping the colony balanced with the correct numbers of caste members. Colonies need the proper proportion of workers who forage for food and take care of larvae, soldiers who defend the colony, and secondary queens who lay eggs to increase a colony's numbers. The wrong balance could spell doom for the colony."

"Results showed that 22.89% of Melipona scutellaris males are sons of the workers rather than the Queen, demonstrating an on-going conflict for reproduction.
"Surprisingly our results show that over 80% of the worker's sons had genotypes that were incompatible with them being the sons of the present queen," said Alves. "This demonstrates, for the first time, how workers continue this conflict by reproductively parasitizing the next-generation of the workforce for their own selfish benefit."

the one that fell first remains
on top.hayseed
