  Evolution: The Deal Breaker

  by Hadriel in

  first off i do believe there are some evidences of evolution or i should probably say adaptation.

  i do believe this exists in various forms.. however the deal breaker for me with evolution is the chick or egg problem.

  there are tons of theories that get passed around as proof of evolution however these are usually examples much further down the evolutionary chain.. what i mean is let's start at the beginning!

  The ignorance. It hurts.

  Fact 1: DNA proves all life came from a common ancestor.

  Fact 2: Evolution explains the origin of the species, not the origin of life.

  Fact 3: if you acknowledge "adaptation" or "microevolution" are actual things, then imagine the diversity of species if given enough time. Take that thing you call microevolution and multiply it by millions of years. That's evolution.

  Fact 4: it's perfectly acceptable to believe in a God and believe in evolution at the same time. The two are not mutually exclusive. Many people accept the fact of evolution and still believe in a God.

  Fact 5: people that haven't read the books or examined the evidence for evolution will likely not accept it as fact.

  Fact 6: if someone objectively and thoroughly examines the evidence for evolution and rejects it outright because it conflicts with their world view, they are beyond hope and are not worth engaging with.

  Korean News : CoC in Korean

  by AntiEntropy in

  hi bros.. after my father's publishing his book, "15 questions after 40 years of jw" , many ex-jw bros in korea became motivated to rush to the coc korean project.

  however any secular project needs a fund eventhough it's a not-for-profit.

  fortunately, a bunch of bros decided to donate generously $300~$7,000 to this unprofitable business.

  Socialism

  by Perry in

  1. social
  2. current

  socialists think that money will solve all man's problems.

  everything is obsessively related to money in the socialist ideology.. they have an almost supernatural ability to blame others with more money.

  god calls this greed and envy.

  For the Publix model to work, they must make a profit. It's still capitalism.

  God calls this greed and envy. They are sins.

  God can suck on my junk.

  Greed and Envy == capitalism.

  I say that as a staunch free market capitalist. Try reading The Virtue of Selfishness sometime.

  i asked him what happened.

  he said "him and his wife lived a full theocratic life for jehovah.

  Politically Correct Wasteland

  this was a comment i made from another post, but i would like to hear some people discuss this.

  i know the social justice warriors will scream i'm some sort of trump supporter for what i say even though i don't agree with his ideas and no i am not voting for him... i accept this is a go to for them.. i think we have fallen into a pc vacuum.. criticizing someones religion = racism!.

  telling someone to not be so sensitive = misogyny!.

  Freemindfade, my son, give in to the mob. Don't resist. Turn the other cheek today, and I shall bless the other cheek tomorrow with a lifetime of spiciness on your eternal porcelain throne.

  Reminder about language and content

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  while the vast majority of posts that the majority of posters share are perfectly fine (which we appreciate) i've noticed we have a few cases where bad language, crude innuendo and outright misogyny is creeping in.. this is not acceptable.. we're not certainly not prudish and neither are we going to enforce puritanical rules - sometimes a politically incorrect joke is funny as hell and sometimes strong language is justified.

  but often times content is completely out of place and cannot be justified.. so, please don't post crude content or use expletives just to be "shocking".

  it's childish and immature and won't be tolerated.. thank you to all the people this has nothing at all to do with..

  It's a sin to use foul language. Jehovah doesn't like it, and neither does Jehalapeño.

  Conform to subjective morality. It means your eternal salivation.
