Very interesting. How do you define "Jesus Christ's representatives" institutionally? As it's obviously not related to the Watchtower and the magazine's associated organization.

In The Evolution of God, Robert Wright takes us on a sweeping journey through history, unveiling a discovery of crucial importance to the present moment: there is a pattern in the evolution of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and a “hidden code” in their scriptures. Reading these scriptures in light of the circumstances surrounding their creation, Wright reveals the forces that have repeatedly moved the Abrahamic faiths away from belligerence and intolerance to a higher moral plane. And he shows how these forces could today let these faiths reassert their deep proclivity toward harmony and reconciliation. What’s more, his analysis raises the prospect of a second kind of reconciliation: the reconciliation of science and religion.
Using the prisms of archaeology, theology, history, and evolutionary psychology, Wright repeatedly overturns conventional wisdom:Contrary to the belief that Moses brought monotheism to the Middle East, ancient Israel was in fact polytheistic until after the Babylonian exile.
Jesus didn’t really say, “Love your enemies,” or extol the good Samaritan. These misquotes were inserted in scripture decades after the crucifixion.
Muhammad was neither a militant religious zealot nor a benign spiritual leader but a cool political pragmatist, at one point flirting with polytheism in an attempt to build his coalition.
Wright shows that, however mistaken our traditional ideas about God or gods, their evolution points to a transcendent prospect: that the religious quest is valid, and that a modern, scientific worldview leaves room for something that can meaningfully be called divine.
Vast in ambition and brilliant in execution, The Evolution of God will forever alter our understanding of God and where He came from—and where He and we are going next.
In this book I’ve used the word “god” in two senses. First, there are the gods that have populated human history—rain gods, war gods, creator gods, all-purpose gods (such as the Abrahamic god), and so on. These gods exist in people’s heads and, presumably, nowhere else.http://evolutionofgod.net/excerpts_afterword/
But occasionally I’ve suggested that there might be a kind of god that is real. This prospect was raised by the manifest existence of a moral order—that is, by the stubborn, if erratic, expansion of humankind’s moral imagination over the millennia, and the fact that the ongoing maintenance of social order depends on the further expansion of the moral imagination, on movement toward moral truth. The existence of a moral order, I’ve said, makes it reasonable to suspect that humankind in some sense has a “higher purpose.” And maybe the source of this higher purpose, the source of the moral order, is something that qualifies for the label “god” in at least some sense of that word. -

The God Delusion
by alice.in.wonderland inhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/the_god_delusion.
the god delusion is a 2006 bestselling non-fiction book by british biologist richard dawkins, professorial fellow of new college, oxford, and inaugural holder of the charles simonyi chair for the public understanding of science at the university of oxford.. .
in the god delusion, dawkins contends that a supernatural creator almost certainly does not exist and that belief in a personal god qualifies as a delusion, which he defines as a persistent false belief held in the face of strong contradictory evidence.

"I wonder if Alice knows that the Bible she uses had it's canon chosen by The Catholic Church."
I'm not sure what you mean here but all Christian religions are to some extent Bible based. The Catholic Church also considered Biblical apocrypha or Deuterocanonical as canonical.

purplesofa, the Creation Book was composed in 1985. Things have changed since then. This is me on the Houston Chronicle:
"As someone who's had the privilege of leading the human genome project, I've had the opportunity to study our own DNA instruction book at a level of detail that was never really possible before. It's also now been possible to compare our DNA with that of many other species. The evidence supporting the idea that all living things are descended from a common ancestor is truly overwhelming. I would not necessarily wish that to be so, as a Bible-believing Christian. But it is so. It does not serve faith well to try to deny that." -Francis Collins
I'm not denying this statement, I'm simply challenging it.That matched DNA fragments in certain species and humans can be found, doesn't necessary mean they're your distant cousins, genetically speaking. If the matched DNA fragments are not “junk DNA,” the instructions are needed to construct other components of cells, such as proteins and RNA molecules. This just means humans and other species share some common biological attributes.
I'm sure you know that DNA is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living organisms. The main role of DNA molecules is the long-term storage of information. Upon execution, the genetic instructions translate into taxonomical differences (structural, anatomical, physiological, etc) in different species.
I don't know how much you know about programming languages, but a single language can be used to write some very different programs. Multiple instances where the exact same code is used in different programs is what led to the development of visual programming language (VPL), any programming language that lets users create programs by manipulating program elements textually and graphically. Graphic symbols represent a textual equivalent. It’s a kind of automation. You drag-and-drop a graphic symbol and it automatically adds a subset of semantics. After the program has been executed, where the exact same code is used in different programs, examining the program after it has been executed for similarities is no different than examining the source code for matching data objects. In this context anyway (Evolution 101). Physical findings, lately made by genetic analysis, just bolster confidence in what we already know; we share some common biological attributes:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11591642
Comparison of human sequences with the DNA of other mammals is an excellent means of identifying functional elements in the human genome. Here we describe the utility of high-density oligonucleotide arrays as a rapid approach for comparing human sequences with the DNA of multiple species whose sequences are not presently available. High-density arrays representing approximately 22.5 Mb of nonrepetitive human chromosome 21 sequence were synthesized and then hybridized with mouse and dog DNA to identify sequences conserved between humans and mice (human-mouse elements) and between humans and dogs (human-dog elements).
Detecting Darwinism at the molecular level would mean observing gene duplication events in macroevolution (for example), not identifying sequences between humans and a dog. Evolutionists seem to think by comparing human sequences, this is evidence we descended from dogs and mice, etc.Genetic markers contain the same "sequences" because they were designed by the same designer. This makes more sense to me than carefully articulated genetic patterns and the associated complex life forms evolving without a designer.
Although molecular biology has been used to hasten research in many fields of biology, it has failed to confirm the evolutionary mechanisms proposed by Darwinian theory. According to Dr. Paul Sharp, "Attempt to detect adaptive evolution at the molecular level have met with little success." Although the study described one of the few molecular successes of evolutionary theory, the trend has been that molecular biology contradicts much of evolutionary theory. (Sharp, P.M.. 1997. In search of molecular Darwinism. Nature 385: 111-112).

“What country is this in and precisely what state/county/parish/hell just give us the address of the KH. I'm sure they'd love to know you're fellowshipping with apostates. For the record, you are a piss-poor JW apologist. You can't even answer Yknot's question. Hell, you can't answer any question about JW doctrine without copy and pasting it off something. That's called plagerism btw.”
Plagiarism is quoting or the rendering of another particularly, copyrighted information without citing the source. Yknot thinks I need to provide some kind of qualifying information that indicates I'm one of Jehovah's Witnesses. This a discussion board where people openly use profanity and regularly engage in malignant inflammatory hate speech. I'm under no obligation to display any God-like qualities here. If Yknot was really a Witness he would at least have figured this much.
