You have to be a troll or a Poe. I cannot imagine that what you are writing is the real you...
arguing with those who reject scientific evidence can be like arguing about football; just as angry and passionate, but the goalposts keep moving, and one team doesn't exist.. read more here....

"If Somebody claimed to be a cosmologist and wrote that the moon is made of cheddar cheese we would not be wrong to doubt his claim would we?"
Of course they would be wrong, it's Wensleydale. Wallace himself has been there and as his view is a equal as an earthworm (or a scientist, they are both very similar) my assertion is true.

Has this guy been tried and found guilty? If not, why the photo?
all us creationists try to do is offer true evidence that the one and only god is out there watching and looking down on us.
we present that certain scientists know the truth about god and that he is everything that we see from trees, life, weather, the air we breath, and even the most simple molecules.
but of course you atheists reject it because it is your nature to not be humble and see god because you want to rule your own life.

If a belief is so shallow it cannot stand up to criticism then that belief is not worthy of continuing to exist. The problem theists have isn't the criticism they rightly attract, it is their inability to logically or empirically substantiate their position.
If certain topics were off limits then this would become an echo chamber. However every topic on here seems to be open to criticism. This can only be good for how else would a reader be able to weigh up a subject if there were only people participating who agreed with each other. Now, what a reader will see is that some subjects are backed up with evidence and some subjects exist only because people know how to string a sentence together. The ability to critically analyse a topic is something that ex-JWs need to learn, having spent most of their lives being taught not to do just that by the entire organisation.
Visitors to this site don't have to post. In fact, the best thing to do at first is just read and get to know the personalities of the main posters. If anyone were to read the topics on this site about theism I am sure they would quickly see that the aggression and personal attacks come from theists in the main and that there is a common theme in these topics i.e. the position of theism is not rational or logical or backed up with anything more than a wish for something to be.
If people are put off by the tone of this site then I feel that they are not yet ready for the real world. However I would be surprised if any visitor to this site would be so thin skinned. Yes they may complain like a child that has been told they have to share their favourite toy but they would still come back and read. And who knows, maybe they will follow a link, do some reading and get a taste of what real learning feels like.

your qualifications are way above mine so i'd love to hear more about the specifics of what you have researched and how that supports the existence of a deity.
k99, i am not really convinced that you're interested in my conclusions.

I get it. you guys just don't want to say "I don't know" - Hadriel
I think more than one person has already told you they don't know what you are talking about.
You can't blame us for not answering your poorly structured questions...

"What proof do you have that supports an evolutionary happenstance that is the origin of life"
That is nothing more than a poorly put together word salad. You should be thankful you got link to a video instead of eggs and salad cream thrown at you...
"evolutionary happenstance...origin of life"
How can you keep mixing up to completely different scientific fields? Considering the amount of times you (and others) have been corrected on this thread alone this should not still be happening.
"What proof"
I'll fix that for you: What evidence. Consider why you were wrong to say proof...

Hadriel,
It is quite clear that you do not understand the subjects of abiogenesis and evolution. It is quite clear based on what you have written on this thread alone. Stating the obvious to you(i.e. you do not understand these subjects) is not insulting your intelligence, it is stating the obvious. That you do not accept that what you have written is, in essence, nonsense further adds to the initial observation that you do not understand these subjects.
Finally, you wrote:
What caused the biochemical event which made life and evolution even possible? Simple question but you've never even tried to answer it
We can't answer a question that is, again, in essence nonsense. This is yet one more observation that demonstrates your utter lack of knowledge in these subjects.
Perhaps it is time for you to go away and reflect on what you actually know rather than asking "clever" gotcha questions that you think are appropriate to a discourse of this nature.
i've been researching the wt and the un involvement.
when i was still in and i first seen the un letter online, my cognitive dissonance kicked and i told myself it'll be a fake.
an apostate lie.. and seeing as no jw i've spoken to has ever heard of it, and flatly deny any involvement "no, they wouldn't do that", i decided to do a little "personal study" of my own.
Is it clear when the WTBTS submitted their application? If they were accepted in 1992 then their application would have been made in 1991 (or certainly that is what the evidence from the UN suggests) which begs the question as to whether the wording was changed before the 1991 application form was released or during.
Regardless of that though I would expect any changes to the T&C's of membership to have been communicated to any existing or processing NGO. Do we know if these changes were communicated and if so how they were done so? This could make the difference between the WTBTS being hypocrites/liars or simply incompetent.
I wouldn't be surprised at either outcome....
a 2 million year old hominid has been discovered that had cancer in its foot - making it the oldest neoplasia found in the human lineage.
now, as to why cancer predates original sin by nearly 2 million years, i'd love to hear christian apologists try and explain.. http://sajs.co.za/osteogenic-tumour-australopithecus-sediba-earliest-hominin-evidence-neoplastic-disease/patrick-s-randolph-quinney-scott-williams-maryna-steyn-marc-r-meyer-jacqueline-s-smilg-steven-e.
Does cancer evolve?
Why would something evolve just for the hell of it?
Why do people who have no understanding of a subject behave as though they are more informed that the experts?

Did you read the link that you provided about the University of Leicester and their proof about Noah's ark?
From the article:
"It is a separate matter whether all of the animals would fit inside an ark of these dimensions – the physics students were simply calculating the buoyancy of the ark"
So then, do you really think your ark could support and carry 2.15 million sheep?
