  Evolution is a Fact #27 - Monkeys, Typewriters, Shakespeare, 747s etc.

  by cofty in

  2. beliefs

  most creationist arguments can be summarised as "complexity, complexity, complexity - therefore god".

  we have all heard the illustrations about the odds of (insert favourite example) evolving, being less than 10,000 monkeys typing macbeth by pure chance.

  evolution is not like that.

  No its not. By perfect selection in one generation I was referring to total selection against all the other types in one generation. Which is what you did in your Monkey scenario. - Hooby

  Again - total gibberish.

  I have not got a clue what you mean by "perfect selection" and neither have you.

  total selection against all the other types in one generation

  This doesn't happen.

  This stuff is page one of Evolution for Dummies. I have explained multiple times why you are wrong and you just keep re-pasting the same nonsense. Evolution is about changes in the frequency of alleles in a gene pool. Those changes happen gradually over many generations.

  What other religious group has the right to NOT report pedophiles under UK law?

  All of them. There is no mandatory reporting law in the UK.

  Thank you.

  Incredible that they would waste so much time and money appealing instead of cooperating.

  Mormon Baptizing the dead??

  by James Mixon in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  why the big controversy over baptizing the dead, they are dead folks..i know it's a quirky practice but jewish leaders are up in arms because the lds leaders are baptizing holocaust victims..what harm is it??

  ?hell jw's are preaching everyone will go up in flames no one believe that crap except jw but no one is up in arms, they know they walk a different step....the lds leaders agreed to halt baptisms specifically of jews holocaust victims in 2010 but they are at it again, baptizing jews.

  this is funny as hell to me.

  If one person thought that by ducking another under water it would influence the destiny of dead people, we would treat them like they were a nutcase. We would never entrust them with responsible jobs or elect them to political office.

  If millions of people all believe the same insane things we call them mormons and we are supposed to give their beliefs respect.

  Mormonism is one the craziest cults. The make the Watchtower look rational.

  I think you have come to a lot of logical conclusions.

  Atheism = self defeating.

  by towerwatchman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  atheism = self defeating.

  first may we define our terms.

  the word atheism comes literally from the greek, alpha the negative and theos [for god], therefore “negative god” or there is no god.

  Mathematically Measuring Evolution.

  by towerwatchman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  mathematically measuring evolution.. when judging relationships in terms of morphological characteristics we will always be bound by the subjective.

  morphologically one cannot exactly measure the distance between two organisms strictly in mathematical terms.

  using the standard method of taxonomy we cannot quantify the difference between a horse and a mouse, or know which is closer mouse to cat, or mouse to fish.

  People die for the truth, they do not die for a lie

  Millions have willingly died for delusions.

  Everybody knows the extra-biblical references to Jesus are bullshit.

  It's embarrassing you would even attempt to go there.
