Every creation book ever written by the cult is appallingly dishonest and scientifically ignorant by the standards of the times at which they were produced.

78What The Fossils Say
by cofty inthe old creation book had a lot to say about the fossil record.
if i remember correctly it was some lie about all the fossils ever found would fit on a single table.
the reality is that there is an embarrassment of riches illustrating the evolution of life.

After all, it was an accident for goodness sake! - BB
Yes and a boy is dead. She should have submitted to the British courts where no doubt she would have been dealt with leniently. It is VERY unlikely she would have done any time in prison at all. The parents said at the time that they understood it was an accident and they were not looking for revenge. But when a life is taken there is a process that must be followed so that justice is seen to be done. You don't get to decide - the British courts do.
Running home and hiding behind immunity is despicable and cowardly. Now she cannot travel anywhere in the EU without being arrested. She needs to put this right.

I teach meteorology and geography but even kids with down syndrome will understand its stupid
Really? I assumed from your first post that you were about 13 years old.
So let's have a conversation about it then deepblue.
Let me begin - Life began approximately 3.8 million years ago. Probably in deep sea vents
Eukaryotic cells came into being approximately 2 billion years ago as a result of an endosymbiotic event
Life diverged through unguided evolution
99.9% of all species that have ever lived have since gone extinct.
Modern humans appeared approximately 100,000 years ago descended from common ancestors of modern primates.
As a geography teacher you agree with all of these points don't you?
So what specifically is your problem with the OP?

deepblue - What the actual fuck are you wittering about? Doug's dismantling of the WT brochure is thorough and excellent as usual.
Is the pdf too hard for you to understand? Maybe Doug can do a simpler one with shorter words for dummies.
You joined just to make a personal attack on an actual scholar. Idiot.. Fuck off

If coming to drive in the UK please take care, I have twice met foreign drivers on the wrong side of the road.
Roundabouts are a great invention to keep the traffic moving at busy junctions. Observe to the right as you approach and give way to any traffic on the roundabout or entering from that side. There are some good YouTube videos that will get you up to speed on which lanes to use depending on when you intend to exit. ( see Ashley Neal for example)
(The CPS is currently trying to extradite the wife of an American diplomat who killed a young man by driving on the right and then fleeing back to the USA hiding behind diplomatic immunity)

just one is a little older that the other
So not co-eternal then. The minister undermined his own point.
It happens every time you ask a trinitarian to explain it in their own words. It's only a matter of time before it ends in a contradiction.

Proportional Representation vs Electoral Collages
by Simon inthe craziness of first-past-the-post elections .... we'll no doubt have to now live through the scotts demanding another referendum, because we may take their lands, but we will never take their freedom!
and so they want to be free of the uk, where they have a disproportionate influence in parliament, and be a little dot that's part of the eu.
yup, freedom.. but anyway, as it stands right now they have 48 seats after getting 1.2m votes.

Did You Know Any "Genuine"" Old School Anointed?
by Number 6 ingrowing up in scotland in the 1970s in scotland the anointed were few and far between, but we had one old dude in our cong who claimed to be one of the anointed.
in the days when it was taken seriously.. i'd be curious how you viewed them.
thing is, he wasn't an elder, or even a ministerial servant, just a plain old publisher.. but he was revered like he had a hotline to jesus.. the other week i was talking to a friend of similar age to me but who hung around the wt a lot longer than i did, and he just commented "oh him... he was a doddery old fool who used to just sit and piss himself.

We had 4 or 5 in the Coatbridge congregation when I was a kid. The Tuesday group was held in the home of an elderly couple who took the emblems. I remember them with affection. They owned a caravan at St.Fillans in Perthshire and quite a few of us from the congregation used to go on holiday to the same site at the old railway station.
John was prone to repeat many of bizarre ideas that Russell and Rutherford taught - God lives in the Pleiades, we will all be naked and speak Hebrew in paradise etc etc. He was a WWI veteran - neutrality wasn't a thing then. He would talk about the 'Evil Slave Class' who left the organisation when Rutherford took control.
I remember the beautiful bronze art deco lamp in their house in the shape of a naked woman holding the glass shade. As a young lad I was mesmerised by her. Probably still would be now!
