Calling Cofty and others regarding evolution

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.

How is it that our eyes are able to convert images into electrical impulses and apply them to the proper areas of the brain to enable us to "see?" - ON

The answer to that question is easily available to you if you care to make the effort.

Every creationist objection can be reduced to 'complexity therefore Jesus'.

I am getting disfellowshipped

by CitizenofEarth in

maybe some of you remember me, maybe not.

for general information i am now 19 years old, and living by myself.

for the past 1 year (more like 1.5 years) i have been quietly fading out of the hypocrisy of this organization, but since i still live in the town i grew up in it has been hard, and filled with different challenges.

Do you have any suggestions for points i could bring forth under the judicial meeting

I went to my JC. I was an ex-elder and I knew how the system works. I made my JCs life hellish. It was briefly satisfying. In retrospect it was pointless. Tell them to fuck off.

Shoud individuals be held responsible for their INACTION?

if you see someone about to be struck by a car or otherwise step into harms way but choose not to call out a warning or act in some way to prevent disaster, are you responsible for any harm caused?.

what defence, if any, can be offered for choosing inaction?

He did not even save his own son's earthly life, because his focus is on spirit - confusedaverylot

Which goes to prove what a dehumanising cult of death christianity is.

Many Christians would agree with atheists about that. So it doesn't necessarily need to be a point of disagreement - SBF

I couldn't disagree more.

Christians are thoroughly dishonest in asserting things that are in direct contradiction to each other and to reality. You are trying once again to make a virtue out of a vice.

Natural evil proves beyond all reasonable doubt that the god of christian theism does not exist.

Well done on your degree. What was the subject? Your degree is an asset you need to make it work for you now.

Make a plan. If you can get a career you enjoy life will be good. Use Snare&Racket as inspiration.

Even if you could draw a straight line from Darwin to Hitler that would not make evolution untrue, it would just make it an inconvenient truth.

Venus there is no justification in the Theory of evolution for the racist ideology of the Nazis.
