Update ... the local grocery store doesn’t carry the fresh version of Brussel Sprouts.  They only sell the Birds Eye frozen package.  That makes me wonder if its only grown during certain times of the year?  I truly don’t recall it ever being offered on the menu at the local restaurants either.  However, Asparagus is very popular up here.  And places like Applebees is notorious with broccoli overload ... unless the customer was asking for double portions as his 2 side choices?  Ugh!

Scientists put human gene into monkeys to make them smarter, human-like

Shazma Khan  April 11, 2019
Making monkeys more smart and human-like, scientists have used gene-editing to insert human brain gene in a monkey.

For the first time, a team of Chinese scientists made use of gene-editing techniques to make monkey brains more human-like. By the end, the monkeys, rhesus macaques, got smarter and had superior memories as compared to the unaltered monkeys.

Researchers edited the human version of a gene known as ‘MCPH1’ into the macaques. The gene made the monkeys’ brain develop along a more human-like timeline. The gene-hacked monkeys showed better reaction times and improved short-term memories in comparison to their unaltered peers, as per China Daily.

Chinese scientists clone gene-edited monkeys for disease research

The team successfully created 11 transgenic rhesus monkeys carrying human copies of MCPH1. They said that a transgenic monkey model is practical and to a large extent can imitate the human-specific status.

However, few scientists also raised concerns regarding the technique, some even calling it ‘reckless’. Geneticist James Sikela told the MIT Technology Review, “The use of transgenic monkeys to study human genes linked to brain evolution is a very risky road to take. It is a classic slippery slope issue and one that we can expect to recur as this type of research is pursued.”

When I was a kid I LOVED dinosaurs! I thought they were the coolest things and always wanted to play with them. But about a dozen years ago or so I read an article about Nephilim procreating with humans and then thought about those same debased Nephilim mating with reptiles in an effort to destroy or simply to terrorize for amusement the human race and came to a similar conclusion that David Roche posted above. Those creatures DNA were altered and no longer in line with how God created them and hence do not believe, nor want to see them in the next life.

There is something really "off" in our understanding of dinosaurs.  The engineering problems with size have not really been solved.  To be brief, look at the size of the elephant; it is the largest land creature that can exist today, and it has problems related to its physical structure that limit how large it can be.  Yet the bones of the ultrasaurus dwarf it.  How does that work?

There are issues with hydraulics, such as how do you pump blood to the brain when you get beyond a certain size?  How do your leg bones support so much weight?

I certainly am no expert regarding dinosaurs; however, the experts don't seem to have very good answers either.

L.A. Marzulli has a few youtubes about the Nephilim Giant that was living in the caves of Kandahar, Afghanistan.  The US soldiers came upon him ... they said he had red hair, 6 fingers and toes, smelled like rotted corpses.  He ended up spearing and killed one soldier.  The rest of the soldiers used a lot of ammo to take him down.  Got to wonder how many more are out there and if they will resurrect during the tribulation time?

What about Big Foot ... do you think that was a hoax or is it a real hairy giant?

Also do you think the demons created these Dinosaurs so it would eat up all the vegetation life or were they also man eaters as well?

There is a theory, prevalent among Native Americans, that Bigfoot is a supernatural entity.

Indeed, in some parts of North America, Native Americans regard Bigfoot as a supernatural being, and often a messenger of the natural world. This is similar to the way the indigenous peoples of Nepal and Tibet view the Yeti: as a spiritual entity.

Indeed, with all the folks out there who have cameras, why do these things always seem to appear to people who can't get a good picture?  That is, if they really do exist, and there is just enough evidence to be tantalizing,  yet not reveal anything conclusive.

"Also do you think the demons created these Dinosaurs so it would eat up all the vegetation life or were they also man eaters as well?"

One theory is that spiritual beings were trying to incarnate themselves in our existence and needed some sort of host body.  It would be something along the lines of the movie "Avatar."

But all these are just speculative ideas.

Thank you, David!

Remember on the $6 million dollar man program ... they had an episode about Big Foot?   I always thought it was pretend ... but then years later I had a co-worker who claimed they saw some type of beast like Sasquatch in the woods of PA when they were out deer hunting.  I really didn’t know what to believe after that.

Interesting conversation; but begs the question of did the enormous dinosaurs eat giant brussel sprouts? Sun roasted with butter garnish and seasonings?
