in response to the 37 threads in my evolution is a fact series - see bottom of op for links - perry posted a link to an article "44 reasons why evolution isn't true".. i offered him a challenge on the thread and by pm.
predictably he is totally ignoring it, so i am offering the challenge to any evolution-denier who thinks they have evidence to support their position.. please present one specific piece of evidence for creationism.. my task will be to refute it with evidence within 24 hours.. then i will present one piece of evidence for evolution and your challenge will be the same.. all posts must be as succinct as reasonably possible.
entirely in your own words, without copy-paste, videos or links.. please post your interest to take part and we will set it up before the first actual post in the exchange.
In the Opening Post, cofy offers to debate creationism, but more particularly Evolution, the pro and cons.
That is a very narrow subject matter. It merely covers the details of the evolutionary process, about which there might be little doubt. I does not deal with the real big questions: origin of first life, and origins period.

TTWSYF:--Time has a past, present and future, yet..yet, they are all time.--" and evolution took time, plenty of it, time well spend. what was that thread bsw?
If life would not move through time, through the zero length present into the future, there would be no evolution, it would have to be created fixed as is. but, --
i was visiting with my family and it seems the rc was worse than i thought.
now they all seem to think that "we are so close to the end" and that the "brothers are really preparing us for the gt".
some even saying that soon our message will change to a judgement message for mankind and talking about how we need to improve "everything we do".
honest: "-- Is it basically you don't become a jw you will die? 😏 " --it could not be that, for they are saying that now, in different words of course. It must be "you will die" so, what else is new?

remember too, that according to their predictions, the anointed GB will disappear at the beginning of the Great Tribulation, poof, and the R&F will be left holding the empty bag, and deal with the real trouble and aftermath, whatever that will be, not a paradise., and that is the positive outcome for wt, in reality, nothing of the above will happen,
what do you guys think?.
are they only some uber religious zealots or do they pursue hidden agendas beyond religiosity?.
look what happened to R. Franz, a devoted man if ever there was one, GB member, backed by family, still he was not at the pinnacle of absolute power. A whole horde of others brought him down.
if this is up already and i missed it , - apologies..... today's study article ,from march study wt , is entitled " jehovah guides his people in the way of life"....theme is is.
30.21 " and your own ears will hear a word behind you saying, “this is the way.
walk in it,” in case you should go to the right or in case you should go to the left".
Jesus has provided his people with spiritual food at the proper time. (Matt. 24:45-47) It is all His fault, like the whole "God's Kingdom Rules " book shows. Enjoy the study to come! and: thanks blondie.
i'm thinking of printing a tract with some simple but thought-provoking questions for people to use when jw's come to their doors.
questions from christians.
bible-believing christians appreciate the moral values of jehovah’s witnesses in their communities but have several questions that somehow seem to escape us when we are caught unexpectedly at our doors.
Smiddy: "Isn`t their over 40,000 different Christian sects already ? I have not counted, but members of every one of them should be shown how wrong they are, with effective tools. particularly those cults that insist on being in a militant attack mode. I always had fun with mormon young elders.

I gave it a "like", because JWs at the doors have to be confronted with ready ammunition against their bible twisting balled up, inbred teachings. After all, they go to the doors of mostly Christians proclaiming "we are right you are wrong", yet there is no scriptural support for their " salvation without partaking", work for a thousand years doctored doctrine. now, if snakes really talked we would need salvation.
yes, we could have been born in an alley in calcutta or with the physical deformities associated with thalidomide.
instead, we were born into or introduced to a repressive, american, religious cult, that shielded us from the warmongering game of chess, the militaristic boy scouts, fornication-inducing sock hops, the twist, as well as the hokey pokey.
we heeded the warnings, avoiding the greedy self-worship associated with masturbation, decadent rock 'n roll and anything preceded by the word "extra-curricular.".
As a potential loser, Beta-Omega male, without the wt conditioning [them] I would have never been considered by the tall, slim, educated females that considered me worthy company in my early wt years, and "jack-pot" (my worldly sister's evaluation) wives. So, it was good training, but resources draining. lessons learned for the future? what future? Freedom from false hopes. and embracing the embraceable.
