    I'm descended from 4 people that came to the US on the Mayflower (my 10th great-grandparents John Howland & Elizabeth Tilley, and Elizabeth's parents John & Joan), as well as 5 people who were accused of Witchcraft in Salem (one of whom, my 10th great-grandfather, Samuel Wardwell, was hanged) Being related to those people makes me tangentially related to lots of other famous people. Authors, actors, singers, and quite a few Presidents of the United States.

And since the brothers had no children of their own, their nieces and nephews were like their children. Actually, they had a patent on a toy for their nieces and nephews. Uncle Orv and Uncle Will definitely changed the world.

    I’m a direct descendant of the Viking Ragnar Lothbrok, a king who sailed west. He wasn’t like he is in the show, but we know he was a great warrior, he sailed west, and he had many children. At first I thought I was special because of this, until I found out that everyone alive is related to some kind of historical figure, like Plato, King Tut, Alexander the Great. But I do happen to be a big fan of Viking Culture and history.

    It’s weird what genealogy research can turn up. I dug into my wife’s Philadelphia-based family and found out she and her siblings and cousins were all eligible to be Sons & Daughters of The Confederacy! Turns out their first male ancestor in America moved to the Georgia and married a Southern girl just in time for the Civil War to start. Amazingly he survived 4 years with the GA 28th Heavy Artillery Btn only to return to Philly right after the war. My wife’s family had NO clue about any of this and were completely dumbfounded.

    Knew that I descended from the Baam Shem Tov as a kid. Looked him up. He was from the same country as my granola. He started Chasidic Judaism to make the religion more fun and he wanted Jewish people to be more stylish. He was also an author. He was born in the Ukraine. His wife’s name was Chana. We have something in common. We both love nature. I do like hearing about philosophical things. Especially, my dad was really interesting. When he died, a lot of people from the synagogue were there. I am losing my religion and wanting to explore another religion. I wonder if the Baam Shem Tov is rolling in his grave because I asked to be cremated so animals can have their land.

      It is not Christians who deny the facts of epigenesis. Always astounded by the biological ignorance of so many pro-choice people who believe that “fetus” is a scientific term and not just the Latin word that translates as “offspring” or “child”. It was the scientific verification of epigenesis in the 1840s that led physicians in Texas to persuade the legislature pass the 1856 Texas law prohibiting therapeutic abortions, the law struck down in Roe v. Wade.
