The most effed up thing about this whole story is that the 14 year old was disfellowshipped.

Just spitballing here, Cappy may be thinking of rebranding. Perhaps since he's using his face, he doesn't want it associated with the old username? -

What Should the Minimum Wage Be (USA)?
by Village Idiot induring the gop debates donald trump said that american’s “wages [are] too high” and later said “that having a low minimum wage is not a bad thing for this country” (7:25)..
do you agree and if so why?.
my two cents on this issue; do the math.

If your job isn't paying you enough, perhaps it's time to find a job that pays more.
If you can't find a job that pays more, perhaps it's time to learn a new skill.
If you can't learn a new skill, perhaps $7.25/hour is all you're labor is worth.

Stay strong!
Yes, they will remove him as an elder if you don't go back to the meetings.
Remember: anything you say can and will be used against you in an elder's meeting.

What are the biggest holes in evolution?
by shadow inhow honest are the proponents of evolution?
idk but curious to see what type of response there is on a topic like this or does their study only seek to confirm their preconceptions and ignore uncomfortable facts?

Because you say so?
No...because the EVIDENCE says so.
Where is your evidence to the contrary?

I find it telling that time and time again, detractors of evolution are asked for evidence in favor of their position and time and time again, they fail to provide any solid evidence. -

Cold Steel:
1) It seems predicated on the assumption that there is no God, or intelligent designer.
Wrong. Evolution doesn't make an assumption one way or the other on the subject of God.
2) The idea that simple organisms can mutate into increasingly complex ones. I'd like to see some evidence this is possible. To think 1-cell organisms can mutate, without a great deal of outside help, into modern humans over a long period of time, is difficult for me to accept.
First off, you are somewhat correct. In a closed system, single-cell organisms cannot mutate without outside influence.
Here's a nice summary of your talking point.

One example of single-cell organisms changing to more complex multi-cellular organisms is during pregnancy. A fertilized egg is considered a single-cell organism. The cell then starts dividing during the development of the fetus. This isn't an example of "evolution" per se, however it is an example of how a single cell can change into a more complex organism.
3) That life and intelligence can evolve from a spontaneous action.
The "spontaneous life" question isn't one for the subject of evolution. It's one for the subject of abiogenesis. Both pertain to biology, however they are separate subjects. Evolution is the explanation of species evolving from a common ancestor. Abiogenesis is the study of how life began in the first place.
