  many people here have expressed faith in evolution and in other theories—but in all honesty, do you have any hope whatsoever in your heart or in the back of your mind ?

  truthfully..

  belief in God does make sense

  Only if the word 'god' is just being used as a placeholder.

  cofty could you answer how the single cell came about by chance?.

  i know the argument for complexity in nature says natural selection over billions of years but this could not explain the complexity of the single cell the building blocks of life?.

  I’m saying it’s miraculous that matter, life, and consciousness should have arisen at all

  Maybe it will turn out to be as incredible as a rock falling down a hill. The only sensible answer at this point is to admit we don't know.

  BBC & Gary Lineker

  whether you like or loathe the guy, agree or disagree, surely he has a right to express his opinions freely on twitter?.

  every bbc employee who appears on tv or speaks on the radio, should now be paranoid about any opinions they've put on their social media accounts, because if the bbc are prepared to censor/silence lineker, they'll go for anyone.. oops: looks like the bbc can dictate what their staff can & can't say in their social media accounts.. https://www.bbc.co.uk/editorialguidelines/guidance/individual-use-of-social-media.

  pity they weren't as strict with their high profile paedophile, mr. savile..

  The BBC needs to address the bias in its current affairs reporting.

  The anti-Brexit stance was embarrassing. It's total failure to challenge the narrative during COVID was shameful. The entire organisation is an echo chamber.

  All the staff, in front of and behind the cameras, are from the same middle class background and graduated the same university indoctrination mills.

  Imagine your own boss telling you that he'll sack you if you ever say anything which praises the Tory Party on your Facebook page!!! Human rights, freedom of thought & speech?

  The difference is that the BBC isn't a normal employer. Literally every UK citizen who owns a TV set is obliged by law to pay Linekar's wages.

  I jut want to highlight this important paragraph that TD wrote above...

  'An analogy is a useful rhetorical device to illustrate a concept once it has been positively established, but it is not proof in and of itself. People who compare molecular interactions to heat engines and other metallic machinery or polypeptide chains to linguistics are at best, selling you snake oil and at worst, don't actually understand what they're talking about.'

  It reminds me of when infants keep endlessly repeating - 'but why?'
