As in book of Enoch watchers?

I was wondering who "we" was also.

Yes that is true. Billions will die.

What I was thinking in asking the question, though, is that bitcoin relies on having electricity. If the electric grid is down how will you access/use bitcoin? I think it is okay as part of your portfolio but for maximum resilience when things go south, tangible assets will be king. I understand Bic lighters were worth their weight in gold in some war torn places.

What happens when the electric grid is out?

The problem is that this scenario would probably spark civil war with lots of bloodshed. Libs would definitely be solidified in their minds that Trump is a Russian agent and would never accept this. It's a no win situation.

I envision we may all have to resort to a barter system or locally derived currencies soon. If we can neither buy nor sell unless we capitulate to their worldview that is what it will come down to.

Thought I'd share that seeds are good for much longer than you would think. I pulled out some Lima Bean seeds that were dried and stored in 2009 and they still had a 80% germination rate. I have had similar success with other types of seeds.

For reference, Q Post 2089 states this bluntly. Then again, Q also states disinformation is real and necessary.

I've been on the fence about AJ. I would love a frank discussion on whether he is a white hat, reformed black hat, or still Mossad controlled. There would be good cases to be made in all ways right now. My spidey sense is leaning more towards the latter right now. Judas goat to push us into civil war?

I seriously laughed out loud over this. Hilarious. Thanks for posting.

I see what you're asking. As I mentioned, I have never, nor has anyone I know, ever deliberately infected anyone. I can, however, share this bit of information from when I worked on a project tracking Hepatitis C virus quasispecies transmission through the population. Hepatitis C has a high rate of mutation. Every time it replicates, there is a high likelihood that it will pick up a small alteration in its genetic sequence. The group of disparate HepC viruses as a whole with their variances is called quasispecies. When we would sequence and examine the virus isolated from sick patients we would know precisely who infected whom. If the virus was identical between two infected people we knew they were closely involved and if the virus was very different we knew the two people were not involved in the same chain of transmission. The patient record regarding personal history and reported contacts would corroborate our findings.

They are simple and robust little demons. If we want to make lots of a mammalian virus, we take a tiny pinch of pre-isolated virus from a vial in the freezer or introduce its genes separately via plasmids into a layer of mammalian cells in culture. The pre- made virus will infect the cells, hijack the cells' machinery to replicate itself, and the cell culture medium will begin to load up with new virus particles. For the case when we have transfected the virus genes by way of electroporation or lipid vessicle method, the viral genes express inside the mammalian cell and the new virus will self assemble. When they emerge from the cell they begin infecting other cells and replicate. The cell culture medium then loads up with new virus particles. After all the feeder mammalian cells are dead, we take the loaded medium and freeze aliquots, or if we want a very pure isolate of virus, we use gradient centrifugation, remove the layer containing the pure virus with a pipet, then dialyze the virus particles into a different buffer of choice by way of a semi permeable membrane.

They exist. I have isolated them and worked with them myself. We keep vials of them in the freezer.

It would be unethical to perform such an experiment on people. You'd have to have a compelling reason to do so. The bar would be pretty high to get such research approved.

Whole heartedly agree except there definitely are genes that program your bodily makeup as they do all living things and there definitely are viruses. I have personal professional experience with both.

I wish I could give more than one up vote for this. I have personally witnessed this in my line of work and can verify.

Maybe. I'll just put that one in my back pocket for now.

"Christ died for us while we were still sinners. This demonstrates God’s love for us." Romans 5:8

Those among us who are Christians can strive to show Godlike love, to do good unto others as we have opportunity and not repay evil for evil. Many are blind and deluded but are otherwise good people who don't need unnecessary grief from us.

However, there is a point when all bets are off. That has to come on an individual basis with guidance from the Holy Spirit and your gut......Kind of like Luke 21:14-15: "So make up your mind not to worry beforehand how to defend yourselves. For I will give you speech and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict."
