From Adam to Noah:The Numbers Game
Leonard Timmons

The Bible was not written by men inspired by God. It was not written to guide mankind according to God's desire. Instead the Bible was written by the wisest scholars available. The primary goal for writing the Bible was to develop an educational system that would pass on the acquired knowledge of humanity to succeeding generations. The scholars who wrote the Bible highly valued the ability of students who were able to engage in insightful reasoning. The authors valued insightful reasoning so much that the Bible was written in a code consisting of riddles and numerical puzzles. Only the most insightful students would be able to understand the riddles and puzzles contained in the textbook that today we call the Bible.
Mr. Timmons emphasizes the Bibles authors put together many of the stories of the Bible with full knowledge that the stories are untrue. Timmons believes that the stories "were meant as teaching aids" to help teachers discover the most gifted who were capable of unraveling and explain the most confounding riddle and parables.
Mr. Timmons offer several stories that differ from the stories that Bible readers are familiar with. The first story offers an explanation for why Adam and Eve were expulsed from the Garden of Eden. God presented Adam and Eve with a riddle concerning the tree life. Eve did not properly solve the riddle. Eve thought she and Adam were to avoid eating from the tree of life when in reality as Mr. show more Timmons has determined the solution to riddle. Adam and Eve were to avoid experiencing sexual gratification. As a result of experiencing sexual gratification Adam and Eve were expelled from Eden and were cursed so that they would toil to produce some food from the soil to eat.
Mr. Timmons reinterprets the story the about Cain and Abe differently than the traditional story of Cain killing Abel. According to Mr. Timmons, Cain not was jealous of Abel because God was more pleased with Abel's bounty of his best animals. According to Mr. Timmons Cain and Abel disagreed on how to best worship God. Cain was more concerned with accumulating wealth and viewed Abel's slaughtering of his best to honor God as a wasteful act. As each man believed that method of how to worship God was to best method follow of worshiping and each insisted that his follow his method of worshiping God the argument led to Cain killing Abel and confiscating his brother's accumulated herd of animals.
Another Biblical story that readers typically misinterpret is the story of Noah's flood. If the story is interpreted literally then the reader will assume that it rained for forty days and forty nights. However, Mr.Timmons reports that there was a population explosion resulting from the unbridled sexual gratification occurring between men and women.
Traditionally Bible readers are aware Adam and Eve were told eat from the trees in the Garden of Eden and that once they were expelled from the garden they had to cultivate and grow their own crops. As there were more people to compete for the food resources that were available some people broke God's dietary rule and began to consume flesh. As women began to feed their children flesh they became giants when compared to Noah and his family who ate fruit from that crops that they cultivated.
Noah and his family built a fort and accumulated the remaining animals to prevent their extinction now that men were hunting and eating flesh. In addition to storing animals Noah and his family also stored fruits and vegetables. The flesh eating population became healthier than Noah and his vegetarian family. As flesh eaters became healthier they also became more attractive causing population explosion to increase and people began starving to death. According to Mr.Timmons as food became scarcer the first war occurred as the giant flesh eaters attacked the fort that Noah built known in the literal reading as the ark.
Noah attempted to end the war offering to compromise but the giant flesh eaters would not compromise refusing to return to a vegetarian diet. As more of them began to die from starvation they agreed to a compromise that placed restrictions on eating flesh also excluding animals that were not be consumed including the animals that were to be killed only for sacrificial purposes.
Mr.Timmons spend a considerable amount time attempting to prove that the first eleven chapters of Genesis contains a numerical puzzle with a solution that prove s that ancient astronomers were able to accurately able determine a calendar that consisted of a 364 day year. Although I do not doubt that the astronomer from ancient Middle Eastern tribes were able to accurately a 364 day calendar, I was not by genealogical charts and timelines that such a puzzle existed within the first eleven chapters of Genesis.
There is also no archaeological evidence to support that Noah and his family were besieged by a nation of giants and no evidence of the archaeological remains of the fort that saved Noah his family and the animals that were preserved from extinction. Comment | Permalink

Only the most insightful students would be able to understand the riddles and puzzles contained in the textbook that today we call the Bible.
The author believes that ancient Middle Eastern astronomers were able to calculate an accurate calendar consisting of a 364 day year with a day of leap year occurring every four years in the month of February. Mr. Timmons emphasizes the Bibles authors put together many of the stories of the Bible with full knowledge that the stories are untrue.

KETO COOKBOOK


In addition to suffering from type one diabetes, I also suffer from diabetic ketoacidosis a condition that causes the deficient insulin hormone to prevent insulin from utilizing carbohydrates for fuel instead, the body uses fat for fuel resulting in the kidney retaining extra sugar that is dumped into the urine increasing urination and causing dehydration which results in several days to a few weeks hospitalization. I also suffer from gastro paresis a condition that prevents gastric emptying and abdominal distention and premature fullness after meals and as well as vomiting.
When I received the cookbook, I did not understood, that the cookbook was meant to assist those who suffer from epileptic seizures. My diabetic condition requires me to eat 45 carbohydrates for each meal to avoid slipping into a diabetic coma.
However, my sister does suffer from epileptic seizures so I will pass the cookbook on to her and ask her to share her opinion as to how well the Keto recipes work for her. After sampling the recipes I would like know if she believes following the recipes have reduced or stopped her seizures.

The pictures displaying the egg salad and celery root chips, egg and red pepper breakfast cups, bacon and egg cream cups, and the white chicken chili appear very appetizing. Some of the recipes are very unique such as teriyaki salmon cakes and the chicken curry and tuna patties. There were also a few pictures of recipes that were unattractive and unappealing.
