No I personally can't but I can find plenty resources that contain the answers.

Got to go check with the "Elders" eh?

Well, you have my permission to cut and paste the BEST ANSWER you can find. We are all depending on you: Here's the question again:

Challenge Question: Can you explain (in your own words) how caterpillars and butterflies came to be, using only evolution principles such as random mutations, small incremental changes, and natural selection?

In other words, which evolutionary process would prompt an organism to digest itself into goo? Then, which incremental processes and environmental pressures would then prompt the goo to develop new organs and a new body... not to mention the added capability of flight in a beautiful display of colors and designs?

Get me a personal message from your imaginary professor friend inviting me to meet with him.

Moving the goal posts eh? No way. He has an open invitation to "anyone". That includes you. Here is a quote from him:

I posted on my Web site that I don’t understand. And I said, “I will buy lunch for anyone that will sit with me and explain to me evolution, and I won’t argue with you until I don’t understand something – I will ask you to clarify. But you can’t wave by and say, “This enzyme does that.” You’ve got to get down in the details of where molecules are built, for me. Nobody has come forward. - Professor James Tour

You agree first. Then, I will try to set it up. That's the deal. If Simon will reinstate my ability to start posts, I will keep everyone posted on the developments with a thread dedicated for that purpose.

Dr. Tour, like the rest of us would like molecules-to-man evolution explained.

I have produced forty threads in this series.

And the Watchtower has produced 100,000 times this much literature, so what? What do you have to gain from running from my two challenges to you? It certainly is not helping your cause. We can get this all cleared up if you just stop running away.

Fact: The caterpillar liquefies his body; then the goo remakes itself into an entirely different organism requiring new legs, wings, antennae, heart, muscles and nervous system, and other features that allow for flight capability.

Challenge Question: Can you explain (in your own words) how caterpillars and butterflies came to be, using only evolution principles such as random mutations, small incremental changes, and natural selection?

In other words, which evolutionary process would prompt an organism to digest itself into goo? Which ones would then encourage the goo to develop new organs that would eventually allow it to beautifully fly away?

Teach us oh wise one.

The professor has an open invitation. All you have to do is agree and I will do the rest to try and get it set up. So far you haven't said yes.

is like explaining calculus to somebody who can't count to ten.

Cofty,

For years you have started these silly posts and they all end up the same.... void of intelligent design (arguments).

Your responses predictably follow two tracts when confronted:

1. Wait on Jehovah (Scientists) - The big shots are working on it.

- Here you tacitly admit that you yourself are clueless. Since you have no science degree of any kind whatsoever, you are forced to rely on (presumably) high school level perceptions where you arbitrarily select experts and ignore the rest. This requires an extraordinary level of credulity far beyond that of simple faith.

2. I have the answer, others have the answer; but you are too ignorant to understand it.

- Here you go to the other extreme and pretend to be too intelligent and so are not required to provide any evidence what-so-ever for your ridiculous claims since no one can understand them.

- But when offered an expenses-paid vacation where you would get your chance to convince a Phd. scientist on your claim that "there is no question that cannot be answered by naturalistic methods"; you turn tail and run away. What new excuse do you have for this latest refusal to back up your claims?

Are you okay living a life where you run away from the readers of your posts like this? What are you trying to accomplish? Many people are no longer swayed by this kind of deception..... not after all the crap we went through with the Watchtower.

My challenges to you still stand:

1. Free trip to Houston to explain evolution to a Phd. Scientist who doesn't understand how it can explain life as we see it.

2. Still waiting on your explanation on how mutations and unguided natural selection can account for the caterpillar melting itself into liquid and growing new organs and body features that include flight capability.

While you determine whether or not to actually back up any of your claims, you might enjoy this little clip:

Bad_wolf - For the hundredth time evolution is NOT about the origin of life.

There is no question that cannot be answered by naturalistic methods.

Cofty,

Question: Can you explain (in your own words) how caterpillars and butterflies came to be using evolution principles such as random mutations, small incremental changes, and natural selection?

Teach us.

There are a hundred more questions like these that have been put to evolutionists.

Cofty often resorts to the "Wait on Jehovah" answer that used to get handed to us when he gets questioned.

Cofty's answer often is "They (some unnamed expert they he can rely upon) is working on it". In other words "Wait on Jehovah". He's in the same prison, just different guards.

Wait on Jehovah or wait on the Scientists..... no difference, same result:

They hurl insults. They throw pseudoscience BS in your face. They write posts that fold in on themselves and then when you question their spin they tell you that you are stupid and act like babies.

That is true. But to be fair, we all used to engage in that kind of behavior to one degree or another when we were Witnesses. Some people are just "evolving" more slowly than others.

We had absolutely ZERO education in sound biblical doctrine, yet we went to people's doors and acted so cock sure of ourselves. When they said anything about heaven, we railed on them about the "paradise earth" and regarded them as ignorant, uneducated, sappy silly-headed buffoons.

We never even paused for a moment to consider that ALL CHRISTIANS already believed in a paradise earth.....they just call it the Millennium Reign instead.

We all signed on to someone else' research and bought it hook line and sinker because it "had the ring of truth" as my father used to say.

Cofty has simply drilled out of one prison cell into another one. He miscalculated and bored through the wrong wall. He is inside of another illusion based on someone else's research, Why? Because he has no formal scientific education himself to perform his own tests. It is a familiar environment for him. It just feels right to him.

But Cofty has deeper issues than the average parroting ideologue. Virtually everyone including Bill Gates likens DNA to a code. The DNA code even has another code on top on the four letter one. Years ago I asked Cofty where did the code come from. He simply stated that it really wasn't a code, it just acted like one and looked like one. I guess that had the "ring of truth" to him. For Cofty, truth is not a concern, it is all about the semantics. Mind numbing.

Anyway, my offer still stands.

Cofty, if you change your mind, just IM me and I will call the professor and see if he is willing to make good on his offer to be educated by someone regarding evolution. This could be your chance to really make a name for yourself. (Not to mention get a free vacation out of the deal.)

I suspect that you wont mind a little audio/video right? Looks like some of your friends here are counting on you.

P. S. Are you going to tell us what you do for a living, or are you unemployed ?

He could invite Nick Lane of UCL for a visit if he seriously wants to discuss the latest developments in bioenergetics.

So I guess that means you decline my offer and the offer of Dr. Tours. I was really looking forward to meeting you. I guess I'm not really surprised. Your lack of formal education in science would be quite embarrassingly evident when engaging in any kind of meaningful dialogue with someone who actually does makes molecules for a living. It also forces you to rely on others research.

How is that different than what we all did with the WT's "research" at one time?

Well, the offer still stands in case you change your mind. Can't you at least give us a hint at what you do for a living?

Have a blessed day !
