anyone else also hold this view or understand it at least, or do you feel the need to argue that both can in no way coexist?.
I know that JW's do not study any sort of science, thus they have no rights to comment on such topics. Thus the JW World View is one of purposeful ignorance, but since ignorance is bliss you are quite happy. (sic)
You do realise that it is predominantly ex JWs here and that some of us were never JWs. Some of us have degrees and everything!

Caedes, do not confuse adaptation with evolution. Adaptation is necessary for survival. But in most cases it would pre-programmed. Some view spontaneous mutations as the cause. As mentioned, spontaneous mutations are very seldom beneficial. They kill rather than improve. Some Pseudomonas bacteria digest oil, so I am not surprised that some bacteria might lunch on nylon.
Adaptation is evolution, Pre-programmed? Nylon didn't exist until 1935! Anyway you said earlier that it was impossible for DNA to 'improve on itself' and yet I have given you an example of a bacteria that has evolved a new ability.

the chain of evidence, involving the laws of information and DNA, disproves the "scientific theorum" of evolution. An advanced information system, e.g., DNA, cannot spontaneously generate and improve on itself all the time. Impossible.
So if a bacteria evolved to be able to 'eat' an entirely man made substance like nylon that would be impossible? Well, let's hope nobody finds a bacteria that has evolved that ability!

let's be clear: people have the right to like or dislike what they want - that is why the option is there.
as long as they are not doing it in a malicious way to retaliate or game the system, there is no policing the votes.
if you get a down-vote, live with it.
Edit: lol to the person disliking every post on this thread.
I do like to help!

Well I disliked everything just to keep things equal.

I didn't think you could even see who had liked or disliked a post anyway so how would you know?

Two tracks from the rather awesome Birdeatsbaby and the rather lovely Mishkin Fitzgerald.
your qualifications are way above mine so i'd love to hear more about the specifics of what you have researched and how that supports the existence of a deity.
k99, i am not really convinced that you're interested in my conclusions.
in nature amino acids formed to then form dna.
Confused by the "America" comment one given that many around the world clamor to attend Harvard, Berkley, Stanford, Yale among others every year.
You do like to go off on a tangent, the point is that most universities around the world don't have to make such statements because they don't have to pander to a highly superstitious populace.
I have never claimed that students around the world aren't keen to get into those universities.
Americans first to land on moon, created the internet, source of most technological advances today, Russia a close second.
Again I have never claimed otherwise.
This isn't about patriotism but to act as though U.S. schools are somehow not credited or to demean their statements is well...ignorant.
Unfortunately America does have a lot of non-accredited 'universities' but the ones you have mentioned are not among them. But i'm not sure why you bring this up as I have never suggested that the university you mentioned was non-accredited.
So finally we get to something I did actually mention (congratulations) although of course your choice of epithet is inappropriate since clearly I am not ignorant of the subject matter, I would have gone with perhaps disparaging or censorious.

What on earth does the fact that American universities have to include such platitudes to quell the fears of a superstitious populace have to do with anything.
