Cofty, do you think the experiments such as the Lenski experiment you mentioned above could ever yield the result of, say, producing a multi-cellular organism out of the bacteria?

The Greatest Show On Earth - A Book Summary In Many Parts
by cofty init was a number of years after i left the watchtower that i finally admitted to myself that i had never really investigated evolution.. i thought i was already an expert on the subject despite everything i knew about it coming form a source that was attacking the theory.
when i began to reserch evolution objectively i was astonished by the breadth an depth of the evidence.
i have been reading books and articles on the subject for around ten years now and always find it to be fascinating and inspiring.. a couple of years ago i began to write a summary of dawkin's book on the jws forum with the intention of helping any lurking jws who could not dare be seen reading the book for themselves.

Analysis of anti-607 BCE Rebuttals
by Ethos ini agreed yesterday to engage in the '607' topic.
i've read numerous threads and am well aware that this topic has been addressed and dissected quite thoroughly.
therefore, if you are uninterested in participating, that's fine.

If the WT reversed it's stance about 607 tomorrow, would you fight just as hard to push their "new" understanding? - Christ Alone
I think an equally valid question is what if they revised their stance on anything? The JWs have already swallowed up the FDS=GB hook, line, and sinker.

New here
by Change Name ini had been studying with the jehovah's witnesses for the last couple years.
they have been interesting study sessions and have learned quite a bit about them and their beliefs.
much of what they teach is what i had learned through personal bible study.. growing up was normal.

Let's remember, too, that Recovery stated in one of his threads that in the following months we would be inundated with JW apologists.
Change Name, if you are sincere, a question for you. What makes you so sure Christianity, and now specifically JWs, are the 'truth'? You don't find the myriad of religions out there precisely evidence against a caring God? Why would God allow truth to get muddled and confused?

Just Because Someone Is A JW "Apologist", It Doesn't Mean WE Have To Be Condescending & Nasty
by minimus ini know certain apologists might rub us the wrong way, but let's not treat them like their pieces of sh*t.. and i know certain posters might rub us the wrong way, but let's not be so quick to beat everybody down that's not of our same reasoning.. just saying..

Of course it's possible someone innocent gets canned. Hey, guess what, it happens. Attitude is a big factor here. If you come here being confrontational and with illusions of superiority, you will get the boot.

ooh, la la.. i am having strong and mixed reactions to this work, and i welcome your input..

Meh.... Christian art had it's place for centuries. I like classics, but it's time for the future.
This, I didn't really find appealing at all. No apologies.

non believers what if your wrong ?
by unstopableravens ini do not wish to debate anything here like i have said in the past i have much respect for most on this forum (believers and non believers) i am simply wondering if the atheist or non god believers every worry about what if your wrong?
it seems that many who were jw for so many years attach jehovah/yahweh with the watchtower and since the wt is wrong than god does not exist.
i ask this question only because i care about people and salvation thats why i want to help as many as possable come out of this cult,and since i truly believe in god i dont know what is in the cinscience of those who dont.

hardly would you look at ur car and say wow evolution design this car well? no you know a person designed it. would you go and focus on theorys to prove
the car was an accident? the point is creation reveals the creator.
Cars have evolved, from their primitive forms. Think about the Ford Model-T, and what it's changed too. Of course, humans designed it, but it had to go through a process to get to their current forms. The Ford Crown Victoria didn't just appear out of nowhere. There had to be a series of innovations that lead to it.
I also don't understand this statement:
okay, i watched the video kind of reminds me of the ravens playing the steelers. whats ur thoughts?
Do football players kill each other? Not quite the greatest analogy you could come up with... but maybe you can explain and share your thoughts. If God designed everything, why did he design predation?

Unstopable, do you believe God created predation? Cheetahs with their magnificent speed to hunt down their prey; lions with their huge claws, powerful bodies, and flesh-ripping teeth; or even this:
