  do you believe in a literal christ?.

  someone that walked the earth and did the things the bible states he did?

  (miracles, etc.).

  Thanks Ismael, well said.

  Jesus was a big splash, modernity still sees the ripples.

  Infinity and god - why wait to create the universe?

  by Simon in

  here's the problem with infinity ... we can't comprehend it.. it's bad enough when it's space, but when it's time as well and then we throw in some all powerful creature supposedly existing forever ... well, it just doesn't make sense and raises questions.. such as why wait?

  why didn't god create the universe the day before he did?

  or the day before that?

  if you want to read the definitive explanation on fossils and how life arrived its covered in darwins doubt, by s.c. meyer.

  this is a game changer.

  Why did he wait forever to create the universe?

  (Cont'd: God never has “wait time” or latency or delay or procrastination)

  So, there are TWO ways to view time.

  A time: Time according to an Earth orientation

  • Past, present, future

  B time: Time according to the Einstein Relativity orientation, God’s and physicist view of time

  • NO past, present or future

  JW leadership’s obsession with God's “delay” (a misunderstanding) led to their shenanigans of fraud and parishioner abuse.

  Stand For Pure Worship, what convinces you that the governing body is being used by Jehovah? Thanks.

  Why didn't god create the universe the day before he did? Or the day before that?

  (I digress a bit)

  God is outside of our universe. He is not impacted by our 4th dimension of time. It's similar to photons traveling at the speed of light, time stops. Whenever they arrive (at any destination) it’s in zero (0) time. So photons never age, they operate outside of the time dimension. Similarly God is timeless, he operates outside of time.

  God observes the time array in our material universe. He is INSTANTLY aware of all incidents past, present and future (including trends) in their sequence and significance. He has control of our time.

  So God’s doesn’t have “wait times”; He’s on time, anytime, like photons.

  We might think otherwise, that's a mistake (e.g. JW leadership).

  An Elder Reads CoC !!

  i have recently joined the site.

  i was just appointed an elder this summer.

  i started discovering the ttatt (the truth about the truth) last year after putting a few things together myself concerning the leadership and then doing some research online.. i really enjoyed jwfacts.com, jwsurvey, and others.

  Welcome,

  CoC really opened my eyes.

  Looking forward to hearing your take on things.

  JWN is the crossroad that connects a lot of good info.

  (cofty bohm)

  Hey Guys,

  This is quite a lineup. We've got the ENCODE consortium, Steve Meyer, Sean B. Carroll and Wikipedia.

  Which is the more trustworthy ?

  Time will tell.

  Perfect!

  Thanks for sharing a great marker.

  Let's get a read on a sampling of a typical cofty post (2/2/2013) :

  1.5% codes for proteins

  4% is regulatory DNA

  10% is structural DNA - centromeres and telomers which compensate for a substandard copying mechanism

  All of the above 15.5% is essential.

  However......

  21% are LINEs Long Interspersed Nuclear Elements (parasitic)

  13% are SINEs Short Interspersed Nuclear Elements (parasitic)

  8% are ERVs Endogenous RetroViruses (parasitic)

  3% are DNA Transposons (jumping genes, also parasitic)

  All of this 45% of our genome arose in our ancestors through various types of copying errors....So is it OK to call this 45% junk?....The remaining 40% is currently unknown.

  This "45% junk DNA [ parasitic, etc] and 40% unknown" distortion of reality is typical cofty drive-by snark verbal bullying seen in the JWN neighborhood. It’s offensive and a gross mischaracterization.

  A consortium of SCIENTIST experts used on the ENCODE Project published a report (a comprehensive update of the genome and DNA complexity, Published on Sep 6, 2012). This report disagrees with cofty's characterization.

  Cofty is aware that EXPERT scientists don't agree with his assessment. But cofty doesn't care, he persists.

  Here are excerpts from the lead scientist Ewan Birney of the ENCODE consortium:

  · “The whole genome is alive with switches, you can’t move for switches. There’s switches everywhere, there’s not a single place in the genome that doesn’t have something that you might think could be controlling something else.” — Ewan Birney, ENCODE Project lead scientist

  · “ENCODE has only just begun to deliver, which will take decades to complete....There’s 2,000 binding proteins in the genome. ENCODE looked at 100-116 of those, so there is a long ways to go yet, a lot more of these guys to study.” —Ewan Birney, ENCODE Project lead scientist

  · “If we use the phrase 'biochemical activity'… we find that the different parts of the genome, 80% have some specific biochemical event…. I was often asked whether that 80% goes to 100%, and that’s what I believe it will do…. That number is much more about the coverage of what we’ve assayed over the entire genome.” —BBC interview with Ewan Birney, lead ENCODE Project scientist, April 1st, 2013

  So, the genome is alive with switches everywhere; something is controlling something else; ENCODE "has only begun to deliver, which will take decades to complete;" and, it's likely 80% genome "biochemical activity" will become 100% as this vast complexity gets sorted out, they've only scratched the surface of activity.

  

  Bottom line: The new genome and DNA evidence does not support Evolution. There's no such thing as "junk DNA" (evolution debris) in the genome. Just like there's no such thing as a common ancestry tree fossil record.

  And, there’s no time for millions and millions of mutation graduations (in pair minimums, one woud be a dysfunctional reject by Evolution's "survival of the fittest" standard) to produce all living things. The probability of time for this would be staggering, way beyond Earth’s current existence time.

  cofty: So why are you listening to Meyer?

  Everthing Meyer says checks out. He is the first to explain how DNA ATCG digital code software can only come by way of intelligence. Bingo!

  Cofty and Dawkins believe in fraud. JW GB believe in fraud. Why would any x-dub buy into more fraud? Very odd.

  I accept Meyer's work because it's correct. Even though we disagree on 4 th century Christian theology. Just like I accept algebra without Muslim theology.

  This website is unique because if you sort its many fact and fiction posts, you will find trends toward truth and trends toward fraud. This contrast is invaluable for making quick decisions, e.g. we now know that the JW microcosm is operating on fumes (no credibility). This eliminates them as solution to anything.

  All sorts of “flashing red light” distortions in reality can be dismissed instantly in the same way.

  JW promise for 1975 is a flashing red light; Cambrian absence of common ancestry fossils is a flashing red light.

  Freedom from distorted reality is never regrettable.

  Always a good thing!
