quick fyi
E1 is Private
E2 is Private second class
E3 is Private first class
E4 is Specialist and corporal
E5 is Sargent
E6 is Staff Sargent
E7 is Sargent First class
E8 is Sargent Major
E9 is Sargent Major of the Army

However check this coincidence. The new Freedom Tower to be built in place of the World Trade Center will be 1776 feet! (Antenna not included)

Heres a nifty little pattern from the bottom row numerals
M=1000, D=500, C=100, L=50, X=10, V=5, I=1
M - D + C + C - L + X + X-V+I
1000-500+100+100-50+10+10-5+1
Equals the magic number666.
Fun with math

I point out that Freemasons have different levels (degrees, ranks, etc...).
I point out there's a reason for an entity having different levels.
I point out the definition of levels is that one is higher, more knowledgeable, than other levels. (For example a 33 degree versus a 14th degree). A general is more privy to information than a private. A commodore is more privy to certain information than a seaman (or whatever a lower ranked sailor is called.)
And it's all true. Any mason on this forum will tell you the same thing. It's been explained to me like this, and I though it was helpful:
regarding a masonic career:
Height = 3 Blue Lodge degrees (up to master mason)
Width = Appendant degrees, such as 30 additional Scottish Rite degrees
Length = Additional masonic clubs such as Shriners.
The Scottish Rite and York Rite degrees dont teach a mason anything new, they only elaborate on what a mason has learned his forst three degrees. Hence, a 32nd degree mason doesn't know more, but what we know he knows better.
Even if there's a difference of just 1 level, it means there's a reason for there being a diffference, for there being even 1 level that's higher. It means there's something about that 1 higher level that's different. There's some form of information that 1 higher level is more privy to.
I just explained it above.
a 32nd degree mason doesn't know more, but what we know he knows better.

errr hang on...no it doesn't.
It's like saying that knowing the "The Moon is made of Green Cheese" is correct, but knowing that it is "a heavenly body 400,000km away from Earth etc..." is better!
There is no logic to "Masonic Logic" because a Mason is never wrong once he has talen the third degree, after all he is a "Master" now, how can he be wrong?
Only the Profane can be wrong.
And yes - the 3rd degree is the highest degree in "Regular" Freemasonry, just as Sargent is the highest degree in the "Regular" army.
Get my drift?
A martial arts Master doesn't know more, they simply "know better".
A law professor doesn't know more, they just "know better".
A surgeon doesn't know more than a nurse, they "know better".

could you point out where in the bible it talks about civilizations existing before adam and eve? not something i ever recall reading.
There are many, many, parts of the Bible no rabbi, priest, minister, or any clergy will ever talk about. (Like the part where Lot's 2 daughters gang raped their father, and it was A-OK with God.) I'm making a kinda book on this too. It's almost done. Maybe I'll make a web site about it too heheh.
But I'll post on the parts talking about how civilizations existed on Earth before Adam and Eve were created.
There are many examples:
Example 1 -
=========
Genesis 1:28
"And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and REplenish the earth..."
Genesis 9:1
"And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and REplenish the earth."
Noah and his family are being told to REfill/REplenish the earth with humans, because it once had humans before.
Adam and Eve are being told to REfill/REplenish the earth with humans, because it once had humans before.
Example 2 -
=========
Jeremiah 4:23-28 (entire account)
"I looked at the earth, and it was formeless and empty; and at the heavens, and their light was gone."
Genesis 1:2
"Now the earth was formeless and empty, darkness was over the surface....."
Jeremiah 4:25
"I looked, and there were no people"
(some Bible translations say
"I saw, and look! There was not an earthling man."
Jeremiah 4:26
"I looked, and the fruitful land was a desert; all its towns lay in ruins.
(some Bible translations say
"I saw, and look! The orchard itself was a wilderness, and the very cities of it had all been torn down."
To compare various Bible translations from different Bibles:
bible.gospelcm.net...
another good site (It even has the entire original Greek Bible, which is one of the original languages the Bible was written in.)
bible.crosswalk.com...
You can also go to any major bookstore (Barnes & Noble, Strand, whatever) and in the Religious Section compare the same verses from different Bibles.
No matter which Bible translation is used, either way Jeremiah 4:23-28 talks about the following:
1. There are no humans alive on the planet.
2. The planet is completly destroyed, on the same level in Genesis. "Formeless and empty."
3. There is no light. Not night time, but on a catastrophic level, the same level as mentioned in Genesis. (God later on in Genesis makes regular night time darkness.)
4. There are destroyed towns/cities!
This cannot be the future, because it says no humans are alive. This cannot be Noah's flood, because no humans are alive. There's only one other time period when the Earth underwent destructive forces, and there were no humans alive - in the past, in Genesis 1:2. So Jeremiah 4:23-28 is talking about Genesis 1:2.
Since Jeremiah 4:23-28 has now been successfully connected to Genesis 1:2, then during the time period between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2 there were towns and cities. If there are towns and cities, then there once were physical people living in them. There were civilizations on earth looong before Adam and Eve were created. There was a first flood, then later a second flood (Noah's Flood.)
Example 3 -
=========
Ezekiel 28:11-19 (contains the entire biography of the Son of Dawn, who later became called the Serpant, the Dragon, who later also became called Satan the Devil.)
"You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz and emerald...."
He's wearing precious stones from Earth. This means he has on a physcial uniform, he's in physical form. He's in Eden. This is back when he was a good guy. Before the war in heaven. When Adam and Eve are created, the Son of Dawn is now a bad guy, called the Serpent. This means the War In Heaven already happened before Adam and Eve were created. This means Eden once existed before. Before Adam and Eve both were made, before the War In Heaven, before when the Son of Dawn was on earth, in physical form.
What is God's best ever creation, (in physical form, wearing a physical uniform of precious metals) doing in Eden, before the War In Heaven, before Adam and Eve?
Note:
The evidence in the Bible points to the War In Heaven as what completly destroyed, and wiped out the civilizations, and people who lived on Earth before Adam and Eve were created.

yes there was a civilization that was arround before noah and the flood this is openly stated. the fact that god was killing them because they were wicked, only saveing the animals and noah's family.

as for your passages in jerimiah chapter 4 if you do not stop at verse 28 but continue reading you see that it is aparently an area being talked about.
jeremiah 4:29-31
at the noise of marching armies, the people flee in terror from the citys. they hide in the bushes and run for the mountains. all the citys have been abandoned-not a person remains! what are you doing, you who have been plundered? why do you dress up in your most beutiful clothing and jewelry? why do you brighten your eyes with mascara? it will do you no good! your allies despise you and will kill you.
i hear a great cry, like that of a woman giveing birth to her first child. it is the cry of jerusalem's people gasping for breath, pleading for help, prostrate before their murderers.
yup sounds like the whole earth was destroyed all right no humans left at all. what it is is the nation being destroyed not mankind.
Jeremiah 4:23-28 (entire account)
"I looked at the earth, and it was formeless and empty; and at the heavens, and their light was gone."
Genesis 1:2
"Now the earth was formeless and empty, darkness was over the surface....."

i will not write all of the passages as it would take too long(my computer crashes often, and typing with one finger takes forever) but i would urge people to read starting in chapter 26 where god is comandinga message be delivered to the king of tyre. to chapter 28 verse 19. it is clear that this is a message to be delivered to an earthly king in the time of ezekiel arround 587 bc. it seems that god had intended this king to be his peoples protecter, aparently he has sinned greatly so god will destroy him. as for being in edon i am not sure if this is a compareitive statement or not perhapse he is indeed in the actual garden.
Originally posted by drogo
this is no "prior" civilization. nor is the king stated to be saten. in fact if you start at chapter 25 untill chapter 39, it seems that there were messages for many other kindoms as well. so no this is not evidance of prior civilization before adam and eve.

sorry i did not run away from question one i thought i had answered it.
Genesis 1:28
God blessed them and told them,"Multiply and fill the earth and sudue it. Be masters over the fish and birds and all the animals" there is NO re involved.

Not sure to what lengths of paper folding techniques you would have to go to, to achieve the mushroom effect on George, would be good to try and see but on the twenty it's a very simple fold in the middle length ways and make the 2 parts meet, then form wings like a paper airplane.
