50Overwhelmed
by Freedom rocks indoes anyone else feel overwhelmed on what to believe?.
i've been doing lots of research on beliefs, evolution, creationism but i feel no further forward about what i truly believe.
for example i looked at the fossil record and tiktaalic and thought great it proves a lot but then i've seen counter arguments on youtube of people basically saying its a load of rubbish and doesn't prove anything.

EU Court Ruling Against WT on Data-Protection
by cofty intoday's london times reports on the july ruling of the eu court that forces the organisation country to comply with data protection.. the action originated in finland but the ruling will affect every eu country.
the cult tried unsuccessfully to argue that the notes taken by jws in the door-to-door work were personal and not accessed by the congregation.
the court ruled that they are acting under the auspices of the congregation and therefore they must comply with data-protection laws.. keeping lists of do-not-calls also falls under this ruling.. why does the cult always feel that it is above the law?.

Today's London Times reports on the July ruling of the EU court that forces the organisation country to comply with data protection.
The action originated in Finland but the ruling will affect every EU country. The cult tried unsuccessfully to argue that the notes taken by JWs in the door-to-door work were personal and not accessed by the congregation. The court ruled that they are acting under the auspices of the congregation and therefore they must comply with data-protection laws.
Keeping lists of do-not-calls also falls under this ruling.
Why does the cult always feel that it is above the law?

comparative anatomy.

who are we to tell God what he can do? - SBF
As usual you miss the point.
'God', whatever that means, can do anything she chooses. The god and father of Jesus must act in accordance with his revelation.
Evolution is the cruelest way imaginable to get to where we are now.

The findings directly impact the theory of evolution. - Perry
The findings add to our knowledge about the age and diversity of extant species. It confirms the fact of common descent from a single ancestor over millions of years.
Think of life as a dense bush where extant species are represented by the tips of twigs. The question the paper addresses is the relative length of each twig.

More than 99% of the species that have ever lived went extinct even before humans appeared.
On five occasions most of life was wiped out by random catastrophes.
Evolution is the most wasteful process imaginable, perfectly 'designed' to maximise suffering.
Evolution is not compatible with the idea of a loving creator.

Adam's genome was packed with all the diversity God wanted - Perry
Including the fusion of chromosome 2 formed from 2 primate chromosomes?
Including millions of parasitic ALU elements?
Including broken genes like those for synthesising vitamin C?
Including ERVs?
Including the genes for making egg yolk?
Including broken olfactory genes?

study that claims 90% of all animals appeared recently at the same time as man. Amazingly, the study also claims that "species have very clear genetic boundaries, and there's nothing much in between." - Perry
This is a classic example of creationists who are either too dim to understand the science or who just don't care as long as they can twist it to fit their superstitions.
Perry has raised this before and I have explained it in some detail. It in no way challenges evolution and totally destroys creationism. I am not going to bother explaining again here because Perry won't bother to read it and in a few weeks he will dishonestly repeat the same bullshit.

2. All information comes from a mind
'Information' is a metaphor for what DNA does.
All life comes from previous life
Once earth contained no life. Now it does. No magic was required. It is only a matter of time before life is discovered beyond earth.
which conclusion best harmonizes with known facts?
Well evolution has been proven by millions of empirical facts and creationism rests on an ancient book.
Most doctors don’t accept evolutionary biology
Was that poll done in Iran?

The more creationists talk the less work rational people have to do.
