    Most pineal glands are wrapped/ cocooned in white silk. Which is false silk that prevents the souls vision of true energetic flow, allowing sovereign comprehension. Under many layers of false wrap may lie a very tainted gland.

      @jameswatson5807 Před 5 měsíci

      So you think the UK did not have chaos and mayhem only certain part of Jamaica that is bad, and you have to understand the black population was low. We now have 2.7 million people and getting a job is hard, so how are people going to eat, of course there will be chaos and mayhem. Plus you did not have drugs coming in to Jamaica, drugs come into England and mash people up, you think it would be better if white were ruling it. The UK now is in chaos we are in a recession, and out of he euro zone, white is struggling to run his country, they could never manage Jamaica now. The whole world was different back then,
