  perhaps you can illuminate me?

  Perhaps you can do your own research.

  All scientific advances are going to be incremental. The huge leaps forward are less and less likely with the passing of time. Obviously!

  So the big question is, why are YOU afraid to look outside of your accepted worldview indoctrination now?

  I have spent more than 20 years considering all sorts of ideas. No need to put words in upper-case to get my attention by the way. Facts always catch my attention. Shouting bullshit doesn't.

  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

  hello 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?
