  1. And also you might want to read this. https://www.quora.com/How-do-you-fix-Your-connections-isn’t-private-problem-when-opening-with-the-Google-Chrome-browser Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  2. The word "large" is a relative word. It needs a point of reference to understand. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  3. I'm not sure what properties don't fit schist. When I googled "types of gray glittery rocks", under images there was a pic that looked like your rock. When I followed the link to the page, under the description of the rock it says, "There are many varieties of schist and they are named for the dominant mineral comprising the rock, e.g. mica schist, green schist (green because of high chlorite content), garnet schist etc." My interpretation of that is that the rock varies a fair amount according to the ingredients.

  4. Thank you. I enjoyed it. It was well described, making it easy to imagine myself there. [emoji16] Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  5. Oh, and the only reason you would need to uncompress the files is if someone sends you a compressed file with all the files zipped up in it. The files copied from the disc do not need uncompressing. The reason the sent file is compressed is because it is easier/better/safer/more reliable to send a file that has been compressed.

  6. You just need a flash drive with all the files copied onto it from the watchtower library disk. If you have the disk (and a flash drive), you just need to borrow a friend's computer to copy the files over. Then just insert flash drive into your computer and find the setup.exe file and click (or double click) it and it will run/install the library. I would guess that eventually we will receive the library on a usb flash drive since CD/DVD drive are slowly phasing out and usb flash drives are pretty much on any/all computers (of course, there are some exceptions).

  7. I can second this. Most of the employees where I work don't seem to get married. They "live together" till inconvenient or they find something "better". Years back it was a lot less socially acceptable to be just "living together", so more people got married and then divorced when something "better" came along. Now it's so much better.....(inject a generous amount of sarcasm here) Anyway, back to the actual thread. I noticed the movie/documentary on Netflix and read the synopsis, but thought the movie just oozed greed and corruption. And that was without knowing the details of the guy stealing the idea from someone else. These types of stories damage my calm. I usually avoid movies that have too greed, racism, hate, and just plain ignorance in them, not because I'm holier than thou but because they rile me up and remind me of all the reasons this world is just about ready for a good cleaning. Reminds me of Habakkuk chapter 1, especially verses 2-4, and 13. "How long, O Jehovah??
  8. I thought the pic was amusing also from the standpoint of the absurdity of burning the building with no flammable material, but I was glad that she didn't/couldn't think it through any better than that.
  9. In case it wasn't obvious.....that previous was a joke. Do what you know and can and Jehovah will take care of the rest. There are steps that you can take to improve your health. Try to bring your diet more in line with Jehovah's original diet plan and I'm pretty sure you will see improvements. But use balance in all things. What you eat or don't eat is up to you. Acts 15:28,29 and 1 Cor. 8:8, 13
  10. I also wanted to point out that we are living in Satan's world. Corruption permeates all aspects of it. I thought it was interesting that they said not to eat fish because they have a lot of mercury from the water. And that the animals are getting antibiotics and various other things that we eat when we eat them. So, my question is, if the fish are being polluted by the water and the animals are being polluted by the food that they are eating, how are the vegetables and fruits that we are eating not affected by any of these pollutants. A lot of the plants that we eat are also being messed with in various ways, genetic modification, pesticides, etc. So now, we can't eat the meat, dairy, vegetables, fruits, grains, or water. Or air. I call for a boycott of all food and air until Armageddon.... Who's with me???
  11. I need to investigate that regarding vitamin B12. Humans did not eat meat until after the flood (or at least they did not with Jehovah's approval.) If the only way to get vitamin B12 is by eating meat, how were they getting their vitamin B12??
  12. My wife watched it and then "requested" I watch it with her. Growing up, our family always had a big garden. 90% of our food came from it. We didn't eat a lot of meat. I was always skinny and full of energy. After I started working at McDonald's (low pay and free food for crew), I started putting on weight and more weight. At first I was thrilled to be less skinny, but a few years down the road realized that it was hard just to stop gaining weight and even harder to lose any weight. I agree for the most part with the "documentary". I put that in quotes because I don't know how much was fact or other. I usually try to take any show with a grain of salt. I actually tried to get my wife to cook with a lot less meat before. Since watching it, we having been trying to go strictly vegetable, fruits, and grains. Cutting out the meat and dairy products. That's hard. I like my butter, creamer, milk, and butter. Yes, I said butter twice. As far as food, I know Jehovah does/creates what's best for us. I don't particularly get impressed when men say they have "improved" sugar. (So you mean Jehovah made an inferior product??) I just try to a natural sugar as possible or honey. My wife made a comment regarding the movie that I thought was interesting. After the flood, Jehovah gave us the animals that we may eat. He didn't say that we had to eat meat. The option was now open. I find Jehovah's decisions or "chess moves" very interesting because they always seem to have multiple intended affects some of which he announces and some which we only see the results later. As far as man and meat and commercialism, Ec 8:9, man will dominate to the injury of others. I guess to sum up, my wife and I are trying to go no meat or dairy for now and see what happens.

  13. Maybe I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that we only play the non-vocal songs from the songbook. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I remember suggesting playing the vocal versions and was told that we can only play the songs that we play during the meetings.
