cofty could you answer how the single cell came about by chance?.
i know the argument for complexity in nature says natural selection over billions of years but this could not explain the complexity of the single cell the building blocks of life?.
I found this an interesting comment on another Site about Abiogenesis :
" Before DNA was RNA, which serves a similar function but is less stable. Before that there was no life. The RNA came first - it forms spontaneously on basaltic glass. Life started when a bit of self-replicating RNA got caught up in a lipid bubble."
this has been announced on the jw's official website, in the "jw news" section.
this is not a joke.

While I am here, my thanks go to Cofty for his succinct summary and explanation of Evolution and Abiogenesis. And to others who have added to what his post said.
I appreciate what Cofty and you guys do.
(is the Nick lane Book "Life Ascending" , rather than "Arising" or are they different books please ?).

"If something was possible by chance then it would be possible in lab?"
By chance ?
“1975” still marks 6000 years from the creation of adam in wt calendar.
according to “all scriptures inspired” book, there is a gap between the creation of adam and the creation of eve and her marriage to adam.
it was at that point in time when eve was created that marked the end of the 6th creative day and the beginning of god’s rest, the 7th day as recorded in genesis.
My aged memory may be faulty, but did they back-track on the 7,000 year long "Creative days" once, and say those days were of indeterminate length, or am I confusing them with something I have read from a slightly more rational source than J W org ?
As Jeffro rightly points out, it is all nonsense when you look at the literary origin of the Eden Story. And as Jeffro has ably shown many times, the 1914 thing is the most utter, monumental, nonsense.
mass shooting at a kingdom hall in hamburg, germany this evening.
at least 6 or 7 killed, dozens injured.
single shooter on the run, police doesn't rule out more shooters.
this book was published around 1990, but was never studied (to my knowledge).
does anyone know the reason why?.
If that Book is the one that gives a Thumbnail sketch of many religions, we did study it at the Tuesday group study, held in private homes. Prove me wrong.

jw magazines have claimed the flood story has so much detail that it couldn’t be just a made up story.. is it detailed?
name one person outside of noah’s family.
name one nephilim.
" the author gave no thought to the seaworthiness of the vessel, and pictured a box to keep valuables in."
The Author no doubt did not have the necessary knowledge about sea-worthiness, I read a long article by an Engineer who showed that regardless of the shape of the vessel, the mere size would put such stresses upon the support beams within, that the boat would have sunk within hours, even in a slight swell !
Your second point is pertinent too, the Story is not unrelated to the Ark of the Covenant stories.
Our old friend Leolaia also showed in one of her wonderful threads that the whole Noah Story is an Interpolation. So, even those who threw Genesis together were aware it was not in any way History, so we cannot expect the details to be accurate in any way.
kingdom halls will be the thing of the past.. conventions (mini assembly halls will still be going on) but will charge for attending and parking and always a donation.
elders will play a much smaller role since csa.
cart preaching will replace door to door.
" A multi-billion dollar company has all kinds of things at it's disposal."
Very true ! not least is their manipulation of tax free and Charitable status.
It is still my fervent hope that I see them at least shrivel to the point where JW family and old friends are awakened enough to examine the org. and wake up.
But the years are rolling along very fast. I shall watch what happens with great interest, there must come a very real "Gladwell Tipping Point" , then a real decline, hopefully before my demise.
