i intend for this to be one of a series of bite-sized ops on the evidence for evolution.. introduction to dna genes are sequences of dna made up of words (codons) each of which are three letters (bases) long.
there are only four letters in the genetic alphabet (acg&t) each word or codon is the recipe for one amino acid.
there are 20 different amino acids in living organisms.
Did you even bother to read my reply - no of course you didn't.
The OP summarises a very powerful piece of evidence for the common descent of all living things and you would rather deflect attention by waffling about semantics.
I used to be an ignorant (not pejorative) creationist too. Then I spent many years educating myself. If you ever decide to do the same let me know and I promise to help you.
austria, a member of the eu since 1995, is a country of 8.8 million people with a muslim population of around 600,000 mostly turkish immigrants.
in 2015 it passed an 'islam law' prohibiting foreign funding of religious groups and creating a duty for muslim organisations to have 'a positive fundamental view towards state and society'.. many mosques in austria have continued to receive money from turkish muslim organisations so the new right-wing government have decided to enforce the law.
seven mosques have been identified for closure and 60 imams are to be either deported or refused visas.
The Freedom Party (FPO) is indeed on the far right with historical links to German National Socialists. It recently took 30% of the vote in Vienna.
The problem is that if centrist parties refuse to deal the problem of Islam's refusal to live in the West according to Western standards of social freedom the far-right will flourish.

Hooby - In the context of the page you posted as evidence Alaya is using the word to refer to scientists who specialise in the field of molecular evolution. You used it in a pejorative sense to refer to anybody who accepts the fact of evolution.
Virtually all scientists are 'evolutionists' in the second sense of the word as you used it, but only a percentage of those are 'evolutionists' in the first sense as Alaya uses it.
It is a silly descriptor in the way you use it. Should somebody who accepts the fact of gravity be labelled a 'gravitaionalist' or should scientists who don't believe that the solar system revolves around the earth be called heliocentricists?
Meanwhile back on topic it appears you have got nothing.

For fucks sake stop being so lazy and pedantic.
My OP is a summary of a news report from Reuters for which I provided a link.
The phrase 'positive fundamental view towards state and society' that you are making such a fuss about is cited in the article. When you made a point about the phrase it took me about 3 minutes to go to the Austrian Government website, find the 'Islam Law' and get the context which you could have done for yourself.
The OP has nothing to do with the Watchtower.

not as cofty worded it - jws
I didn't word it - Austrian law worded it.
The test for 'a positive fundamental view towards state and society' is any threat to public order or security. JWs have never endangered public order or security. Phrases cannot be plucked from laws without context.
4. Precedence of national law
This is true for all Religious Societies. Teachings, institutions and customs are not
allowed to contradict statutory rules. The Religious Society must have a positive basic
attitude towards society and the state. The recognition can also be revoked, especially if
the Religious Society does not have a positive basic attitude towards the state and
society (any more), respectively public order and security would be endangered.
8. Regulation on the interdiction of foreign financing
The “ongoing operation” of a religious society must be financed inland (a one-time
contribution of foreign origin, like an inheritance is generally not prohibited, but the
administration of such an estate must be executed inland)
i like trump but i would be reticent wearing that hat.🤠.
Serious question - When was this time that the word 'again' implies?

The Witnesses aren't positive towards state and society.
To be fair they encourage their members to fully cooperate with the governments of the countries in which they live and wait on god to intervene. Radical imams are the exact opposite of that.

Seven mosques have been identified for closure and 60 imams are to be either deported or refused visas. Vice Chancellor Heinz-Christian Strache told a news conference: “This is just the beginning.”
The Austrian coalition government came to power following Europe's immigration crisis.

With 10^93 possible functional cytochrome c functional sequences there are only “three possibilities”? - Hooby
Yes. Can you suggest a fourth one?
You imply that if it’s not “random” sequences or “identical” sequences, then it must be evolution!
No I didn't. I said that the third possibility was that 'DNA sequences vary in a pattern that exactly corresponds to the relationships previously identified by evolution'.
This turned out to be the case. It was the most profound piece of evidence for common ancestry.
Why do Evolutionists like to present the argument in ways that are so favorable to evolution?
There is no such thing as an 'evolutionist'. There are just scientists who accept the evidence for common ancestry and superstitious folk who don't.
Life’s hierarchical pattern was recognized by creationist scientists before modern evolutionary theory.
There is no hierarchy of life. No scientist has thought that way for about a century.
There is also no such thing as a 'creationist scientist'. That is an oxymoron like a single batchelor or a well-read creationist.
The fact that cytochrome c sequences conform to this same pattern does not mean that evolution is the only option
Yes is absolutely does. Your failure to understand the significance of the evidence is irrelevant.
