  By “evolution,” we mean “macroevolution”—apes turning into humans, for example.

  by FadingTruth in

  2. bible

  august 2015 awake .

  quote in title taken from article footnote.. anyone have information on who gene hwang and yan-der hsuuw in the article are?.

  why do they repeatedly state that apes turned to humans when that's not what evolutionists teach at all?.

  It is only mainstream writers to argue how evolution should be perceived by creationist. Theology in itself aligns to the core value of what a Heavenly God is and attributes there in.

  Evolutionist such a Darwin made this compelling argument to satisfy the science community how such differences would apply to the onset forecast within the logic of creationism.

  Microevolution happens on a small scale (within a single population), while macroevolution happens on a scale that transcends the boundaries of a single species. Despite their differences, evolution at both of these levels relies on the same, established mechanisms of evolutionary change: mutation.

  There are two possible sources of the genetic variability that must be introduced into a population for change to take place: mutation and genetic recombination. Mutations are random nucleotide alterations such as copying errors or changes induced by external mutagens. In contrast, genetic recombination is performed by the cell during the preparation of gametes (sperm, egg, pollen) which are used for sexual reproduction.

  The genomic differences between any two siblings are tremendous, and with rare exception all of those genetic distinctions were specifically created recombination. Both recombination and mutations can contribute to the evolution of an organism, but genetic recombination is the primary source of the genetic distinctions between individuals in a population, and must therefore be the principal driving force behind evolution

  While one holds upon expansion, Creation descends from inception, i.e. point of origin. (LIFE) however complex these theories are, both cannot find an actual point of origin of life.

  For this purpose they both inherit the same standards by canceling each other theories as speculation. While one can be answered physically under man made proven hypothesizes the other can be proven by simple physical archeology.

  The inference that evolutionist writers conspire to suggest that a millennial amount of generational people somehow conspired to develop or orchestrated the ultimate lie of transition, would be in itself ludicrous.

  "Macroevolution" - where did the term come from? (Calling Coftey, et. al.)

  by cappytan in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  is macroevolution a word made up by evolutionary scientists and darwinists, or did creationists come up with that word?.

  because, from my understanding, there is no such thing as macroevolution.

  an ape didn't give birth to a human, for instance.

  When Leavitt suggested microevolution in 1909 it was to address the mystery of formlessness while describing development biology. However in 1927 the theory reshaped itself to widen the hypothetical with variations under the heading of macroevolution by a Russian entomologist. and then brought into mainstream in English in 1937.

  What is Your Brainwashing IQ ? Take the Quiz

  by Finkelstein in

  so how much do you understand about brainwashing, its application and effects ?

  essentially lures people into its grasps and then brainwashes them for exploitation and manipulative purposes by using mental indoctrination techniques.. here's a quick quiz to take to answer some of these questions.

  I believe the thought process speaks for itself. Simple philosophy you might find otherwise in high school. A true analyses would then suggest that a higher score would infer easy manipulation.

  Inductive reasoning is a logical process in which multiple premises, all believed true or found true most of the time, are combined to obtain a specific conclusion. Inductive reasoning is often used in applications that involve prediction, forecasting, or behavior. Here is an example:

  During the scientific process, deductive reasoning is used to reach a logical true conclusion. Another type of reasoning, inductive, is also used. Often, deductive reasoning and inductive reasoning are confused. It is important to learn the meaning of each type of reasoning so that proper logic can be identified.

  Rutherford, Knorr or Franz - Who has the most influence on doctrine & process now?

  by konceptual99 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so, i was thinking - who of the above still has the most influence on current wts doctrine and dogma?.

  rutherford obviously created the smokescreen around 1914/607 but overall his work has been superseded i would suggest.. knorr created the various schools and they or their offspring still live on.

  wasn't it during his tenure that all the blood doctrine, types/anti types (now chucked away of course), transplants etc came along?

  From the above list, I would say The God of Abraham, Jacob, and Isaac along with Jesus.

  Finkelstein:
  

  Sorry about your score SimonSays

  I'm lost for words

  It’s not a big surprise. The way the questions were framed was to find the bias of the person nothing more. Injection of algorithms into a scientific study with only a true or false question is simply being subjective into the persons concluded bias.

  The term brainwashing being the least objective then becomes more subjective.

  A simple analogy one can experience in a first or second grade level of education with placing the correct shape peg in the adjacent slot.

  In this case, the exploitation in its self becomes evident, which in itself amounts to brainwashing by having subjective questions.

  An idiom of a Square peg in a round hole analogy.

  Well this explains 3 things

  1. 1. Science is irrelevant

  2. 2. People can’t judge others only upon their own perceptions.

  1. Brainwashing statistically has been in the same realm as a psychologist, man can’t judge book by its cover. I’m sure many of you have heard they old say.

  Did judge Rutherford piss off Hitler

  by greenhornet in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the jws at the time in germany where considered part of the aryan race, (since they were not jews).

  then things changed for the jws after rutherford mailed a letter to hitler bragging about jehovahs kingdom on earth.. so can we add this to the bloodshed that that the watchtower corp is responsible for?.

  The point I am making is between the bias tones your assertions made with political affiliation, which by your own admittance is your goal.

  Bible students or Jehovah’s Witnesses have never been a party or affiliated politically to any business of or government. These outlandish accusations have a habit of spiraling out of control to a point of contention by people being mislead. This include governments.
  

  If your argument is simply “Erich Frost” which by unconfirmed outside sources you speak of amount to nothing more that tabloid news.

  I have read many accounts of this issue. I also know the possible sources of your claim.

  "Die Falschspieler Gottes"; the primary source for it is:-
  
  "Haftbuch Nr. 292, Gestapo Berlin, Dienststelle II B 2"

  The problem here is unconfirmed sources, and I will also add that if such facts were viable, then what was the situation with Fehst that people believe Frost gave up these people to the Gestapo. Furthermore with this speculation, can we know for a fact that it wasn’t Fehst himself to do this atrocity and blamed it on Frost? There are too many unknowns.

  Artur Nawroth
  Otto Dauth
  Fred Meier
  Walter Friese
  Heinrich Ditschi
  Albert Wandres
  Karl Siebeneichler (perished in Sachsenhausen)

  By all accounts, I could in retrospect make such assertions about the Catholic Church. I also have documentation to support such actions by the RCC toward the bible students, But there unconfirmed reports and letters. So my stance is logical unless you can prove otherwise to be making wild accusations.

  Thank you

  The real issue is long term solvency.

  by joe134cd in

  2. beliefs

  ok every one raves on at how miserable and tight wt is, while they are literally swimming in money and assets.

  although this may be true this isn't the real issue or the problem to begin with.

  the problem is having a long term survivable business plan.

  That’s an agreeable and fair assessment.
