Off the top of my head no I don't know the specific details of butterfly embryology. I'm not near a computer right now but why don't you do a search on Google Scholar and I guarantee you there will be a plethora of peer reviewed papers that explain the process at a genetic level.
One of the problems is that you lack knowledge of the most basic science so describing complex stuff like evo devo is like explaining calculus to somebody who can't count to ten.
it's not enough that we simply raise empirical challenges to these iron age beliefs saying, "jesus didn't really rise from the dead" or "muhammad didn't really fly to heaven on a horse.
" we must also give no quarter to this falsehood that religion can give peoples lives real meaning.
the truths about our identity, experience, and the future impacts that our decision will have on the world around us are much deeper and more profound than any culture or religion.
We must also give no quarter to this falsehood that religion can give peoples lives real meaning
I have been among of the most outspoken of anti-theists on the forum but even I am uncomfortable about this statement.
Attack bad ideas but let's not have derision for people who find comfort or purpose in their belief systems.
On the other hand we often see theists assert that it is not possible to have a meaningful life as an atheist. Our energies are better spent providing a positive response to this challenge.
nk has taken another important step towards having a viable nuclear arsenal with the successful trial of an icbm.. kim jong-un says new missile is 'gift' to 'american bastards' from north korea on independence day.. one major hurdle left for kim jong-un is working out how to make his nuclear bombs small enough to be delivered by the missile.
that is not an insurmountable obstacle.. the us sate department have issued a statement stating that it "will never accept a nuclear-armed north korea".
how exactly to prevent this outcome is not clear.
The US invaded Iraq, killed SH and his family overthrowing that government -which stands as a warning against weak dictators that won't play ball with US
One of the biggest blunders in US history.
If NK already has nukes, it is too late to stop them
It doesn't have one it can deliver with a missile - yet.
the US will have to play ball with NK
The thing is, NK doesn't want anything from the US. It just wants a weapon it can use to nuke you.
1. median age.
experts will tell you that if you want to know if a population is in growth or decline, the best single number to look at is the median age of the population.
i have extracted aust census data and calculated the following approx median ages:.
Really good work thank you for posting it. As you say looking at the diagonals is revealing.
i would really like to read the thoughts of an creationist as they lie on their deathbed.
their honest thoughts.
their terrors.
not all believers in creation are also subscribers to belief in an afterlife
I very much doubt if that is true.

done4good - Interesting info thanks.
revip - NK do not yet have the capability to launch a nuclear missile at anybody. Reducing the size their bombs to make it possible to put on a rocket is a challenge they have yet to conquer.
NK is an irrational cult. Hatred for the US is its central tenet of faith. Movies of the USA burning up in a nuclear conflagration are normal on state TV. It is a national mental illness. Imagine having a psychopath living next door to you who screams constantly about how much he wants to murder you and your family. ONce NK has a viable weapon it will effectively be living next door.
I do think it will attack America if it can't be persuaded otherwise. NK is not Iran. Not even similar.

The USA, the UK, France and Israel have shown that they can be trusted not to use nuclear bombs capriciously. I have far less trust in Pakistan and Russia.
If NK succeeds in its ambitions to develop a viable nuclear missile there is a high likelihood that it will launch a nuclear attack on the west coast of the US.
Unless NK responds to further pressure from China it may be only a matter of time before it is necessary to launch a preemptive strike. The death toll would be horrendous.
The alternative might be the loss of a major American city.

Bad_wolf - For the hundredth time evolution is NOT about the origin of life.
Evolution explains how millions of species descended from a common ancestor. The evidence for this is not simply about showing a few similarities. You could only say that if you had never taken the time to examine the evidence.
I used to be just like you. I thought I had powerful arguments against evolution. One day I realised that I was arguing about something that I actually knew nothing about so I began to study the evidence. I was astonished by how ignorant I had been.
That is why I wrote this series. If you actually read the OPs of these 40 threads, or even a sample of them, you would be embarrassed by what you just wrote.
