in your earlier post you seemed to be under the impression that genesis and science were somehow compatible .
however, the truth is the two are not reconcilable at all.
I'm very curious what definition of complexity you are using.
Physical complexity. The molecular make-up of the hard drive. You cannot be seriously suggesting that material is being added to a hard drive when it "fills up" with data. It's just magnetic bits being flipped. Likewise, the circuits in the computer are either powered or unpowered, but are equally complex either way.

totally ironic and you know the borg chose this on purpose.. .

I didn't read the article, only looked at the color chart, but... it's not very good.

There is no definition of complexity that would even suggest...
Physical complexity. Not informational complexity. The whole reason I brought up CPUs (which Caedes then changed to the subject of hard drives for some reason) was as an analogy to the human brain. Neither a computer or a brain is more complex physically when processing information than when it is not.

That Mormon guy looks totally insane in both the "before" and "after" pictures. His eyes are following me as I scroll down the page.

Caedes: I mourn for your reading comprehension. I'm done repeating myself.
i realise that starting this thread may make me as popular as a ginger stepchild but was there any wts publication that you liked, or at least comfortably tolerated?.
my memory may be deceiving me but i think the greatest man book was pretty good, leaving out the gruesome detail of the crucifixtion and wts doctrine.. also, can anyone tell me the list of books that ray franz authored/co-authored?.
thanks.
I enjoyed the Greatest Man book and the Revelation book. Hey, I was a kid when it came out, cut me some slack. I liked the vivid paintings and I liked the way they included each verse in boldface in the paragraph that discussed it. It was an appealing layout.

No offense, but this is sad, and makes me shake my head sadly.
interesting admission in today's wt: adam may have understood "day" (as in "in the day you eat from it, you will positively die") to be a literal 24-hour period.
i don't think the wt has ever said this before; the usual emphasis is that jah meant it as a figurative day, a day from his standpoint which is 1,000 years (and the article does state that, later).. however, if adam understood god's warning to be carried out in a 24 hour period, and god did nothing to alleviate that, then who did the lying?
actually, regardless of adam's understanding, the question still stands but moving toward an admission of the use of day in that context to be 24-hours only makes the question even more valid.
Well, I haven't heard it for myself, but Band on the Run had reported in the past that she heard Franz give a talk where he explained that the time of the end (1975, or thereabouts) might be delayed by Eve's menstrual cycle or something. I'm not really sure what that has to do with the start of the seventh day, which was supposed to have started after God performed his last act of creation, making Eve.

I also suggested on the last page that there might be more options we can't conceive of yet: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/287553/2/Creationist-Should-Dismiss-Genesis-Quickly#5137293
