  Why are the evolutionist's so upset?

  by Esse quam videri in

  so many evolutionist's on this forum are upset at the terror attacks in europe such as recently in sweden.

  it is just a logical step in the evolution of the human race.

  should you not rather be celebrating the great changes taking place right before your eyes and constructing detailed explanations of the cell structure and dna development in the human brain.. you can't eat your cake and still have it.

  The Law does not comment on whether humans have a metaphysical dimension. Stop playing word games.

  The Watchtower are Right About Blood...

  ... but, they fail to take note of one important detail.. i believe that if we are going to have any chance of reasoning with a jw about blood, this is the place we need to begin.. don't try to convince them that it was only a dietary law.

  it wasn't, and they will never go along with it.. don't tell them that saving a life is more important than obeying a law, even a seemingly trivial one.

  they take pride in obedience.

  Really?

  You commented three times in a thread about a life-and-death issue to complain that you think there might be a grammar error.

  Shouldn't that be - The Watchtower am Right About Blood...?

  No it shouldn't. Obviously.

  Can anybody be bothered to converse with EQV? I can't.

  He seems unaware that the majority of christians have no problem with the fact of evolution. Creationists are a sub-group of hyper-ignorant theists found mostly among Protestant evangelicals and Muslims.

  Their ignorance of science is matched only by their ignorance of their own ignorance.

  Liking you or not we have a lot of reasons to assume we are more than biology. - John_Man

  No there are no reasons at all. Not even one. Endless repetition doesn't make it so.

  Not only religious reasons... That comes later, you know, after death... The real Judgement will take place

  I don't give a flying fuck about your post-mortem threats. That is the tactic you Catholics have used to oppress and defraud the weak and the poor for millennia. It doesn't work anymore. get over it.

  "Scientism" is a silly, made-up word used by superstitious people who can't support their evidence-free dogma.

  You have made the same post three times - yes all three did show up on thread.

  I didn't understand it the first time and repeating twice hasn't helped any.

  I have never had more than one account on this forum.

  "but have three souls and of course there is no evidence because it is metaphysical and to ask for evidence is scientism...."

  and so on and so on ad infinitum.

  But some people think humans are just biology. This view it's not from science but from scientism. This cultish view is very wide spread today - John_Mann

  There is no good reason to assume we are more than biology.

  Insulting those who accept this simple fact by calling them "cultish" is a pathetic attempt to excuse yourself from the burden of proof.

  Guessing and uncertainty in the eukaryotic fossil world

  by Earnest in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the journal nature, dated 14 march 2017, has an article entitled fossil algae hold clues to origin of modern photosynthesis reporting on a newly discovered set of 'eukaryotic' specimens which may help to identify the origin of photosynthesis in eukaryotes.

  however, there is some uncertainty in this.. it can be difficult to pinpoint exactly where ancient fossils lie on the tree of life because, billions of years ago, many organisms were superficially similar.

  “that’s the problem with this field,” says [nicholas butterfield, a palaeobiologist at the university of cambridge, uk].

  oh dear - not that old canard again!

  Another ostentatious display of ignorance.
