  By “evolution,” we mean “macroevolution”—apes turning into humans, for example.

  quote in title taken from article footnote.. anyone have information on who gene hwang and yan-der hsuuw in the article are?.

  why do they repeatedly state that apes turned to humans when that's not what evolutionists teach at all?.

  Everyone needs to light up Dawkins on Twitter NOW. If he sees that's I think they'll have made an enemy who tirelessly destroys them. I tweeted him also.

  They will just silently change the online article to appease the sh!tstorm.

  What makes you think that church elders don't do that. Everyone has children that go to church. But no one is perfect and sometimes imperfect church elders screw up. Wake up call for parents. Do not trust anyone with your precious little ones. They depend on you for protection. Trust no one.

  Obvious apologist is obvious. Brother Lett, is that you?

  You still didn't answer the question that I asked.

  What's worse? Breaking confidentiality or endangering children?

  James 4:17 - "if someone knows how to do what is right and yet does not do it, it is a sin for him."

  The right thing to do is to protect children. Who cares if it's a "legal" obligation or not. It's the RIGHT THING TO DO.

  What's worse? Breaking confidentiality or endangering children? Because those ARE the choices.

  James Brown: That picture is still consistent with the modern day theory of evolution. Each step on that scale is a slice of time over millions of years.

  I can't believe they f*cking quoted RICHARD EFFING DAWKINS in this article!

  The “words” and “sentences” in DNA make up the various “recipes” that direct the production of proteins and other substances that form the building blocks of the various cells that make up the body. For example, the “recipe” might guide the production of bone cells, muscle cells, nerve cells, or skin cells. “The filament of DNA is information, a message written in a code of chemicals, one chemical for each letter,” wrote evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins. “It is almost too good to be true, but the code turns out to be written in a way that we can understand.”

  WHAT THE HELL? They're quoting him to support their lie that complexity means a creator!

  "Macroevolution" - where did the term come from? (Calling Coftey, et. al.)

  is macroevolution a word made up by evolutionary scientists and darwinists, or did creationists come up with that word?.

  because, from my understanding, there is no such thing as macroevolution.

  an ape didn't give birth to a human, for instance.

  From that same article:

  Is Evolution a Scientific Theory?

  What qualifies a theory as a scientific theory? According to theEncyclopedia of Scientific Principles, Laws, and Theories, a scientific theory, such as Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, must

  1. Be observable

  2. Be reproducible by controlled experiments

  3. Make accurate predictions

  In that light, where does evolution stand? * Its operation cannot be observed. It cannot be reproduced. And it cannot make accurate predictions. Can evolution even be considered a scientific hypothesis? The same encyclopedia defines a hypothesis as “a more tentative observation of facts [than a theory],” yet lends itself “to deductions that can be experimentally tested.”

  Wow... Look at that last paragraph.

  "Its operation cannot be observed." Wrong, the fossil record shows how it operates.

  "It cannot be reproduced." Well, neither can gravity. We haven't been able to make artificial gravity, yet it's still scientifically sound and accurate.

  "It cannot make accurate predictions." Well, yeah, because evolution isn't a person that predicts things. However, scientists can accurately predict how things will evolve depending on the environment you subject them to. For instance, if Kevin Costner's Waterworld were to actually happen, Humans might eventually evolve into several different species of whale-like mammals, although not exactly like whales.

  so brohter (not elder or anything but many years active) had to give talk this week.

  talk related to how jehovah gives abilities to people thru the spirit.

  started off with the mention of how god told moises to build the tent and gave people the abilities to work wood, stone, etc.

  Boo yeah...actually glad they're appealing.

  Streisand effect.

  Also, Supreme Court could reverse the "duty to warn" decision.
