captaingirl - The progress in medical genetics in recent decades is astonishing.
If you can't think of many more advances in human knowledge you are just not paying attention.

kairos - I have never extracted DNA but I believe it really exists and that it consists of 4 nucleotides. I have never seen photosynthesis at a molecular level but I believe that leaves do consume carbon dioxide and produce oxygen and sugars. I have never visited a deep sea vent but I do believe they sustain a strange ecology, I have never visited a tectonic boundary but I do believe continents are moving.
The possibility of these things being a conspiracy of lies is infinitely more unlikely than that they are true.
Conspiracy theorists are the most gullible people on earth.

I grew up in Airdrie. I now live just south of the border.
Slimboyfat is over in the west somewhere and TheScotsman is somewhere around Edinburgh. I'm sure there are some more but I can't remember off the top of my head.

Intro
by jc1985 inhello all, many years i have been lurking on this site.
gradually i’ve learned the real truth, gone from serving as a servant and at bethel to inactive for almost a year, barely ever wasting time going to meetings.
my family is large and very active and so is my wife’s so leaving altogether is difficult.. though it seems now that everything is about to change.

Welcome to the forum. It's really sad to hear that your wife will put her religion ahead of her marriage. I wish you well for a happy future.

I do not adhere to nor promote any particular shape for earth.
Do you also have an open mind on the possibility of the moon being made of cheese?

Education takes a long time and a LOT of effort.
Ridiculous YouTube videos made by narcissists don't count as research.
If you want to know stuff start reading proper science books. Come back in 5 or 10 years and share what you have learned. There are no shortcuts.
Conspiracy theorists want to feel like they know more than all the combined human knowledge without the effort of reading a single book.

New round of elders and MS schools going on, anyone have a inside scoop on any of the info being shared there?
by optimisticskeptic inconfidential items are of most interest of course, just curious what they're talking about there in general and what are the newest things everyone is being warned about, etc.

Yeah I remember all the youth and child programmes when I was in church. It looked good but behind it all was the desire to indoctrinate impressionable minds with religious superstitions.
