    Mars is trilobal and has an equatorial bulge, perhaps caused by a previous moon.

    Sally Hemings was half sister to Thomas Jefferson's wife, Martha. Although there is no picture of Sally, there is a picture of her and the Pres. Jefferson's daughter Harriet Hemings. It is likely that Harriet resembled both Martha and her mother, Sally. Only one of Harriet's eight great grandparents was (black) African and she was born enslaved. After leaving Monticello, she married a white man and it is unknown if she or her children mentioned president Jefferson in their lives in Washington, DC. Harriet's brother mentioned he believed her family was identified as Caucasian. Since this thread is showing some historical discrepancy, the paternity of Jefferson's black children was unknown for many years.

    He welcomed back the first unrighteous resurrection in Book 2, who happened to be a Nazi and he attacked Benedict because his last name is Levinsen (jewish). And I'll just add that Megan is a ginger, lol.

    Ho. I don't remember this detail !

    I think he's the same guy in the WT that came out later. If it is, it's nice that they are continuing the storyline. He goes from needing courage to face the tough times ahead to smiling in prison. 💜 broadcast: 13:44-18:54 https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/StudioMonthlyPrograms/pub-jwb-106_1_VIDEO WT: https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/watchtower-study-june-2024/Remember-That-Jehovah-Is-the-Living-God/

    Caleb and Sophia's family have undergone a few redesigns since the first clip, but they've always been ethnically ambigious. The reason for this is obvious: They're for everyone. I have created characters specifically to discuss Civil Rights, Gender equality, all kinds of prejudices that will have to be shed in Paradise. Other than this, I specifically avoid mentioning nationalities and skin color unless its part of the backstory. The reason for this is because that way as many readers as possible can see themselves, or something familiar in the characters they're reading about. I've had some complain that it makes my characters harder to picture, but it means they're for everyone.

    Paul’s words tie everything together. Rejoicing isn’t pulled from emotion; it’s anchored in what Jehovah has already set in place. The brothers in Rome had been declared righteous — that was their standing. They were called to an inheritance — that was their direction. And their hope was reserved in the heavens — that was their certainty. Each point builds on the last. Identity, then calling, then destination. When those are fixed, the heart can rejoice even when life is unsettled. Hope isn’t something they had to manufacture. It was something Jehovah placed before them — solid, settled, waiting. The text teaches that joy comes from where we stand spiritually, not from what we face physically. When the foundation is built by Jehovah, the stability follows.

    Garrett? That's a possible point, but in the context of being Quaker. So I'm not sure anymore now Biggs and Kit have always been black siblings in my imagination

      Modern references to creative days:
       
      *** w15 6/1 p. 5 How Science Affects Your Life ***
      The Bible fixes no duration for the six creative “days.” Instead, it opens the door for modern scientists to study them and assign accurate time spans to them. We know that the creative “days” were much longer than 24-hour days.
       
      *** g21 No. 3 p. 12 What the Bible Tells Us ***
      So each of the six creative “days” during which God prepared the earth for life and created life on it could represent extremely long periods of time.
       
      *** g 1/14 p. 12 Creation ***
      WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS God created the universe, including the earth, in the indefinite past—“in the beginning,” as Genesis 1:1 says. Modern science agrees that the universe had a beginning. A recent scientific model suggests it to be almost 14 billion years old.
       
      *** lc pp. 26 Science and the Genesis Account ***
      A careful consideration of the Genesis account reveals that events starting during one “day” continued into one or more of the following “days.”

      My deep love for my heavenly father and his confirmed love for me seems to be the only thing keeping me going lately. Picturing being reunited with my earthly father again; seeing the happiness versions of ourselves bring comfort to my scarred, broken heart. I love you, even when I haven’t met many of you. Keep enduring friends, paradise is just around the corner...

      Sad news 😭 that sister LindaL from Sardegna Italy passed away. She was on this forum. She will be remembered for her quiet generosity. She loved the world wide family of brothers and sisters dearly.

      I am thoroughly convinced that 99% of people are programmed, and only 1% really think & reason on matters.

      As an example, how did the above statement make you feel right away?

      Did you:

      1. Feel a twinge of offense?  Like I was insulting you or someone you know?

      2. Not feel anything?  Because you knew it wasn't about you or someone you cared about?



      If you answered either 1 or 2, you are programmed.

      Now are you offended?  

      Any knee-jerk reaction = programming.  🤔🤔🤔

      When I originally made that statement, if you are not programmed, then perhaps you asked yourself:

      1. Could this apply to me?
      2. Could the brother be mistaken?
      3. Is there any truth to what he's saying?
      4. What is the brother trying to convey with this thought?
      5. Is this situation even worth my time and attention?

      We need knee-jerk reactions for life-or-death situations.  For snap decisions that cannot wait.  But this isn't one of those.  You have time.  Did you ask any of those questions when you read my first statement?  Did you ponder over it at all?

      NOW how do you feel?  A little enlightened?  Mind opening up to new possibilities for responding to situations?  Or more upset because this brother has no idea what he's talking about?  

      In any case, hope you had fun with this thought experiment....
