i intend for this to be one of a series of bite-sized ops on the evidence for evolution.. introduction to dna genes are sequences of dna made up of words (codons) each of which are three letters (bases) long.
there are only four letters in the genetic alphabet (acg&t) each word or codon is the recipe for one amino acid.
there are 20 different amino acids in living organisms.
Watch these videos and you will see Cofty has no idea of what he speaks about.
that's a very bold statement.
I have no intention of wading through that crap. I'll stick with the facts of evolution if it's all the same to you.
You are free to continue to use whichever crutch you need though.

That's two or three times you've mentioned how wealthy you are.
I'm pleased for you. Really I am.
since i just signed up and posted a few times without doing this yet, here is my story..
i think that i became a jehovahs witness because of my immaturity.
i had some quirky personality traits, and i joined finding that i fit in because, as i said to myself: these people get me.
they act like i did something wrong.
i was 20. tier 3 offense they would be on sex offender list for life.
they should be.. doesn't the church teach morals.
Sorry to hear this.
I don't know where you're based but please get professional help.
i read on a jw forum that jw's came in for disapproval if they drove either sports cars or 2-door cars.
the reasoning was that a driver couldn't easily take fellow dubbies out preaching in such a vehicle.
was that ever official policy or just local nonsense from a grumpy po?.
Lol - Love the registration Stan
the recent buzz that has hit the online communities concerning the watchtower society and their evil offspring - the jw org - revolves around their apparent financial difficulties.
many factors have been discussed - the real estate flips (and flops), the changes in meetings and field service, the need for donations to cover expenses, the push for donations.
where does the money come from to operate the hospital information network?
Landy, have you read/researched back into Crow's past postings with copious amounts of links , bot net address links and WTBTS links to this influential "arm".
Maybe when you try to look into this your posing afterwards would be a bit different.
Admittedly no, it may well be different now. When I was in, the HLC was just a few local elders who'd done a bit of boning up on blood substitutes.

some announcement of sorts?.
there are all kinds of conspiracy theories.
their head count and time cards are all faked by the gb, and "congregations".
.... That said, I don't think they've done themselves any favours with this jw tv thing.
I saw it for the first time last week and was absolutely gobsmacked :)
When I was a kid growing up, the GB were held in awe, muttered about in hushed respectful tones.
That's been done away with with one roll of a video tape. It is staggeringly awful and I can only guess as to what today's JW teenagers think of Stephen Lett! :)
the majority of members who tend to join this forum have been hurt possibly even traumatized sometimes to the point of wanting to end their lives.
upon joining the forum, new members are welcomed with open arms, welcome messages start pouring in, "likes" are freely given, a false sense of security is promoted where a member is free to speak his mind without having to worry about the wt gestapo.
again, similar to how potential converts are welcomed and "love bombed" upon entering a kh for the first time.
I was disappointed to find that rather than offering support that would "heal" and allow the "caregiver" to "move on" and no longer need a support group, that the group/group leader was actually functioning to perpetuate all problems and so I quickly departed.

There's some wishful thinking goes on here.
They will have to adapt over the coming years, as all publishing companies have had to.
They will need to produce less paper as most distribution will be accomplished using electronic means. That may mean rethinking the headquarters size and staffing levels but, to paraphrase, reports of their demise are greatly exaggerated.
They may have a temporary cash flow issue due to a high spend on new headquarters but the amount of assets they have are staggering.
