Dimble Nuck - My prediction was correct...
Please tell me which books that present the scientific evidence for biological evolution you have studied?
I predict the answer is none and that you will evade this question - So far this prediction has a 100% success rate.
You are probably around the tenth creationist I have put this question to with identical results. Ignorance is a choice.

There are a hundred more questions like these that have been put to evolutionists. Not an answer from these self-inflated pseudoscientists - Dimble Nuck
We both know that is a lie.
There is not one question that you could not resolve with a little bit of research.
I will get to your "questions" about sex and natural selection when I get time later today. They are both simple questions based on your simple ignorance of facts.

They can't comprehend that intelligent design merely means intelligent design, whether by another biological lifeform, spirit, computer simulation, etc, it absolutely has nothing to do or prove any god of any religion - Bad Wolf
Why do you say "they can't comprehend"? I am very familiar with the disingenuous claims of the ID movement and the Discovery Institute. Their attempts to distance themselves from the word "god" are well known lies that have been exposed many times by their own words. It was the centrepiece of the Dover trial.
But even if we take your statement at face value it gets us nowhere apart from an infinite regress.
Evolution has no need for an "intelligent designer". There is no question that cannot be answered by naturalistic methods. Methodological Naturalism is the bedrock of science.

How did life, DNA, biochemical pathways originate? - Dimble Nuck
This series of threads is about the evidence that every living thing evolved from a common ancestor. This mush is unassailable and beyond all sensible debate in the scientific community.
This explains why better-informed creationists only ever want to talk about abiogenesis and cosmic origins.
There has been a lot of exciting progress in the field of abiogenesis in recent years. Bioenergetics is the key. Life - all the way to the first cell - probably originated in alkaline hydrothermal vents. If you are genuinely interested get a copy of "The Vital Question" by Nick Lane. Of course we both know you have no genuine interest in answers to your "questions".

Showing comparisons and similarities in DNA does not automatically equate that everything spawned from a common ancestor - Bad wolf
Yes that is correct. The evidence for common ancestry in our DNA is far far more compelling than simple sequence comparison. I have described quite a few in this series of threads including pseudogenes, ERVs, ALU elements. Here is an extract from #3 ...
Imagine you are teacher with suspicions that some of your pupils have been copying from each other. Comparing the correct answers in all of their assignments might not provide conclusive evidence. They could simply claim they had all carefully revised the same textbooks so it shouldn't be surprising that they all gave the same answers. The way to prove there has been cheating going on is to examine their mistakes. There might be only one way to answer some questions correctly but there are almost limitless ways to get it wrong.
By examining a number of identical mistakes you could even build up a family tree of plagiarism and show who wrote the original essay and who copied from whom.
In a similar way geneticists have been able to confirm the evolutionary history of humans and other species by examining errors in our DNA.

Is any of this stuff peer reviewed by actual scientists? It kind of seems like an incredible waste of time to both read and write if it isn't - Steel
Yes everything I have written is based on books and articles that are in turn based on peer-reviewed papers. None of it is even controversial in mainstream science.
As JWs we were lied to about evolution. We were thoroughly ignorant of the facts - as you can see from many of the contributors to this thread. It is certainly not a waste of time to help others understand this subject. Not only is it fascinating it also has significant implications for our other beliefs. No doubt this is why it attracts such vitriol.
it's reported that isis terrorists in syria are putting small video cameras on all of the vehicles they use, in order to use the footage as propaganda.
they're calling them daesh-cams..
Come on Cofty you can be a little more optimistic than that - Fink
No I really can't.
Maybe its history will deter an organization like this from starting up for awhile at least
What about hizb ut-tahrir, boko haram, al qaeda, Al-Muhajiroun, and numerous other violent jihadi Salafist organisations we could mention?
The dream of a Caliphate has not gone away. Like any other cult they will revise the specifics of their eschatology and start again.

It appears Isis is slowly becoming extinct - Fink
ISIS is not becoming extinct. It is losing the last of its territory in Iraq but that could make it even more of a threat to us in the west.
Tens of thousands of well-trained ideologues will be looking for new targets. It will regroup and find a different way to establish the Caliphate.

Perry you have asserted that prof Tours, one of the top ten chemists on the world has requested a personal meeting with me and that you will fund the trip.
Is this accurate or are you lying for Jesus?

Perry. Biological evolution is a well established fact. That explains the journey from LUCA to all of the millions of species on our planet.
If your professor really isn't familiar with the countless lines of evidence for this then I'm sure he has access to a fantastic academic library.
The questions of how geochemistry became biochemistry are very lively fields of research. He could invite Nick Lane of UCL for a visit if he seriously wants to discuss the latest developments in bioenergetics.
If as you imply, he really doesn't know in detail how an enzyme works at a molecular level he should ask one of his first year students.
If you have any specific objections to any of my first 40 threads on this topic that you can explain in your own words feel free to ask.
