"There are three different basic white wine shapes: the bordeaux and burgundy shapes plus a taller, slimmer shape, which is used for more aromatic wines such as those from Germany and Alsace, and from Riesling and Riesling like grapes generally. Green glass is used for Mosel, Alsace and lighter bodied wines, while brown glass often signifies a heavier wine or one from Germany's Rhine regions."

Actually there are there colors of German wine bottles: green and brown traditionally and more recently white or shall we say *transparent pale,* especially for white wines from Wurttemberg.
I doubt that the bottles have anything to do with the taste of the wine (sweet, semi-sweet or dry) but more with storage: the promising vintages are bottled in the brown bottles (keeps light out best), the standard vintages in green and most table, consume wine in the white (transparent) bottles. Some of the cheapest don't even have corks anymore but screw-on tops or pull-off plastic rings!

It means that the bottle was made from green glass or brown glass, etc.
Colored glass is chosen (particularly brown) to inhibit UV light from causing the flavors of the wine to deteriorate. Clear glass is chosen for a style that's least likely to be affected by t UV light or something that's going to be drunk quickly...whites and blushes. Green is common for more delicate whites and most reds. Brown isn't as common with wines as it is with beers because UV light affects the hops very quickly...this is where "skunking" occurs.

You are Not understanding the Bible. In Gen. it tells us that Jesus got to be the Christ because he was the only angel that had Never sinned! I have gone through my New Testament and counted over 550 places that state that Jesus is Not God! Like where Jesus said: Why do you call me "good"? I am Not good. Only God is good.". "how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was WITH him." "...You have never heard his voice nor seen his form,...". "For the very work that the Father has given me to finish, and which i am doing, testifies that the Father has sent me." It is best to obey the Bible, not lazy people personal wants and desires.
