I've noticed that engineers have a propensity to belief in quackery.

Yeah, a paedophile is someone who is attracted to preteens, regardless of the age of consent, which is 16 where I live. An age of consent above 16 is insane in my opinion.

Do You Know Any “Gay” Jehovah’s Witnesses?
by minimus inof course the religion condemns homosexuality but did you know any gay witnesses?
i knew some bethelites that were very effeminate and i remember 4 women who were suspected of being lesbians by many in the congregation.
they eventually moved away and were very vocal against males, especially elders..

What exactly is your point? Homosexuality is forbidden among JWs, that's why it's relevant on an ex-JW forum. How else can we talk about something without labelling it? Words are labels and labels are how we communicate. The word gay is the commonly accepted term for homosexual men.
What are you advocating, that we don't talk about the topic at all? Why would you want to stop people from talking about it? You're welcome to stay away, but it's not your place to shut down other people's conversations.

While resultant species believed to have evolved are evident, no one has ever come up with fossils of transitional species or a chain of evolving transitional species all connected to the resultant. Also, take the human being, there are no surving transitionals, only the final result. Hence, everything roaming the earth is a resultant species from the mechanics of the evolutionary process. But there should also be around the other species that connect everything together. There aren't any. --There are a lot of explanations though.
You presumably had to read information you initially found troubling in order to see the light and leave the JWs behind. Why not put the same critical thinking to use and read a book about transitional fossils.
HINT: All fossils are transitional.

Evolution doesn't happen today...WRONG...
by HowTheBibleWasCreated inlast year i had a brother tell me that one proof evolution is false is that he doesn't see it happening today... i was going to bring of viruses evolving so fast that new vaccines must be developed each year but felt he was too closed minded to receive it.
today i was listening to the audio book of 'an ancestors tale- richard dawkins' and noted oe point that shined through.. here is evolution happening>>>.

Venus, I don't understand what any of this has to do with anything? This thread is about evolution and you've hardly even talked about evolution. You've just quoted biologists talking mostly about other things.
This thread isn't about how atheists feel, to which there is no answer as they are all individuals and are arguably the most varied bunch on the planet. I've literally met fellow atheists with whom the only thing I agree on is the non-existence of god.
Moreover, the complexity of DNA isn't due to evolution, it was already complex before evolution got started, and altruism is so far off from the OP I don't even know how you got there.
