so i have started down the path of trying to understand evolution, and to get the linear lies that the jws planted in my head out of it.
i bought an audiobook called "evolution: what the fossils say and why it matters" by donald prothero.
i heard it recommended on an atheist podcast that i listened to.
I have not desire to change your mind. In fact, that is not even possible
Of course it is. I will follow the evidence wherever it leads. So far you have presented not one single scrap of evidence.
I know the arguments for creation and the evidence for evolution really well.
You cannot say the same.

When one goes where Evolution doesn't and examines the Biological, Chemical and Electrical sub-systems which enable life
Biological sciences do go there and the findings fully support evolution. Creationists have contributed NOTHING to human knowledge. They are academic parasites.
Your ignorance of science does not equate with any lack of scientific knowledge.
Not all are interested in digging deeply into the processes of life in search of answers which may be uncomfortable
Not only do I enjoy digging into these details I have written about them. Far from being uncomfortable they are incredibly fascinating. What specifically would you like to talk about? I assume your contribution will be copy-paste and/or AIG videos.

Anybody who can recommend Answers in Genesis has never understood even the most basic facts.
That is embarrassing.
contrary to common belief, neither the bible nor the watchtower condemns homosexuality; however, they do condemn the practice of fornication.
homosexuality is same sex attraction whether such attraction is acted upon or not.
leviticus 20:13 describes a man having sexual relations with a man, or the act of fornication.
UK government official estimate is 6%The official survey posted by snugglebunny puts it at 2% which is exactly in line with the meta-analysis done by the Williams Institute.

I know too much to ever revert back to my younger years when, superficially, the possibility of evolution held some small merit - Old Navy
You have never read a single science book presenting the evidence for evolution in your entire life and yet 'you know too much'.
Every single one of your dozens of posts attacking evolution can be summarised as follows - 'I have watched some wildlife documentaries and life is really, really complex. I can't imagine how evolution can account for that, and I can't be bothered studying the evidence; therefore Jesus.'

how can someone really know the gradual evolutionary proces from bottom-up? - redpilltwice
The very genes - in fact the very letters of DNA - that trigger the building of an eye and all of the individual processes are described in astonishing detail on the scientific press
Every possible stage of complexity from a simple patch of light-sensitive cells all the way to our own complex eyes can be observed in the living world. How colour arose - and was lost - and was developed again is known, how the lens evolved from existing proteins is old news, how the eye came to focus light on the retina is understood.
What exactly do you think still needs to be done before you give your assent?
How much work have you done to research the current state of knowledge?

Around 5% of the population is estimated to be gay - SBF
Most surveys show that figure is somewhere between 1% and 2% with an additional similar percentage identifying as bisexual.
I hasten to add that this is one of very few Watchtower teachings with which I remain in agreement - RogerK
Are you saying that you think all gay people ought to remain celibate?

Do you see the problem here?
No I don't. All the details have been researched. I have explained some of them in my Evolution is a Fact Series here and here for example.
Every stage of complexity of the eye can be found in the natural world. If the eye had been designed by a human engineer it would be better than it is.
strong evidence of cognizant design is in evidence
It only seems that way to you because you don't understand evolution.
But what is it about non-creationism which many find so appealing? What is their heart-of-hearts motivation?
A desire to know the truth about reality.
xJws are turned off by the thought that there may really be a Creator and a Heavenly Family
That's not true. Ex-JWs that reject the supernatural usually do so because they have followed the evidence.
I have faith that one day we shall indeed have the answers to all of our questions.
I have no confidence that you will ever learn anything new.
i am stuck on amos 4:11, jehovah said he will destroy the way god destroyed sodom and gamorah, is this a misprint?.
Hello Michael, welcome to the forum.
Why do you care what the bible says about homosexuality?
The bible says slavery is a okay. We know that it isn't. The moral opinions of Iron Age goat-herders is not really relevant is it?
i hope hollywood helps make her the democratic nominee.
she sounds like she’s testing out the waters.
good luck ms. winfrey.
At least Palestinians owned their own property
Do you know anything at all about the Middle East under Ottoman rule?
I'm not defending Israel. I'm pointing out that it is far more historically and morally complex.
