Your comment does not actually make sense.
What the hell is a 'macro reason'?
‘One species is not able to evolve into another species. However, one speicies could evolve into two species’—this is what you both say!

Methane-Based Life Forms Could Exist on Titan (the giant moon of Saturn), say Scientists
by abiather inliquid water is a requirement for life on earth.
but in other, much colder worlds, life might exist beyond the bounds of water-based chemistry.
cornell chemical engineers and astronomers offer a template for life that could thrive in a harsh, cold world specifically titan, the giant moon of saturn.

This is not my experience (not interpretation of meditation). This is true for me because when I go to meditation, I may not always know which quality I am lacking in, but during the meditation an equalization would naturally take place—like water finding its own level which means pipe is connected to a water source.
This does not make sense? I ask how do you know that your interpretation of what is happening when you meditate is true? How can you tell your experiences are not dream-like hallucination?
When you go to meditate, you have to empty yourself of all your prejudices, your religious views and your own view of God. Otherwise you are limiting yourself, and you never get connected to the whole which means different views, different experiences.
This does not answer the question. Others that meditate do not share your views... some do not believe they are connected to a 'god' in any way... are you saying they are wrong, or perhaps they are not doing 'it' right?

Abiather, how do you know your interpretation of mediation is true? Personal revelation? Others that meditate do not necessarily share your views, are they wrong? -

Well put abiather. However since Darwin's time things have not stood still.
I am sure you will be interested in learning about some examples of speciation... you could try here or here or really you could just google it!
Are suggesting speciation cannot happen? Considering the fact that we understand that DNA is not perfectly copied between generations, surely an animal population separated by geography for long periods of time may drift apart and become different species? It would be interesting to see some evidence of a mechanism that would stop this happening, do you have any ideas on this?

How do Americans feel about Canadians and Britons interjecting their opinions onto hot localized political topics: gun laws, abortion, ect?
by adjusted knowledge inin addition to the above question, why do citizens of the two above mentioned countries, or other countries, feel the necessity to tell americans how they should interpret the american constitution for localized issues?.
i fairly much have an idea what the general population in the usa feels in regards to the first question.
this could be one of the possible reasons cnn piers morgan poor ratings and eventual firing.

Sorry user100... clearly Buddha never "REALLY" meditated if one considers the 'no true scotsman' logic of abiather. You see if you "REALLY" meditate you would "SEE" god.
If you "REALLY" want to understand this stuff you need to read more articles from the author Abiather recommended. You know like this one...
... with practice you too can reach level 99 in fishing and "seeing god".

Advice needed on Crisis of Conscience
by cappytan inso, some of you may have seen my thread from yesterday about my wife waking up.. we had further discussion yesterday evening after i sent her the pbs video on the abuse scandals plaguing the watchtower.
she was so furious and pissed off at wt hq.
apparently a close relative of her's was abused by an elder and the only reason he was reproved and removed as an elder was because he confessed.

Considering she effectively said 'no'... I would say no, do not send it.
"Well, nevermind, I don't know if I can deal with that right now."
IMHO attempting to push her is probably going to have the opposite effect to the one you want anyway.

I was attempting to give you a forum from which to extol the virtues of the forum and perhaps share a little about how you feel your contributions help those still 'in' and support those that have left. I suppose that 'scab picking' comes a close second.
I am surprised those lorries were allowed over the bridge... I expect they must have been empty. The pasty sniffer dogs at the border would have gone mental if those lorries were in fact full.
