  How to Argue for Creationism

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  all creationist arguments follow an identical pattern.. first a quick way to remember the format - 'complexity, complexity, complexity; therefore god'.. now a more detailed guide to formulating an argument.. identify some complex feature of the natural world.

  a quick google search or nature documentary will quickly provide inspiration.

  creationist websites have hundreds of them you can copy-paste without attribution.. do no research at all on what is currently known about the evolutionary history of this feature.

  How many people today believe that we humans descended from monkeys??Evolution does not teach that humans descended from monkeys, it states that both have a common ancestor. I remember using that argument as a JW, "If humans descended from monkeys, why are there still monkeys" and I would then walk away on cloud nine, we(JW's) are so knowledgeable. LOL

  Why the JW org should fail.

  dr margaret t singer, a professor of psychology at berkeley university california has studied the experiences of 700 cult members.

  ''consciously and manipulatively, leaders and their trainers exert a systematic social influence that can produce great behavioral changes,'' said dr. singer.. .

  one of the ways the jw organisation exerts so much influence over its members is because it has created a culture sustained by constant propaganda, which polices itself according to how the leadership has moulded it.

  Fact and trends..Global trends impacting religion in 2017 and beyond. (1) The world is becoming more religious.(2)Atheism is on the decline (really) (3)Christianity is growing but not as fast as Islam (4) Literacy continues to expand, by the year of 2017 8 in 10 global adults will be able to read. One of the most common assumptions is that religiosity is linked to economic and technological underdevelopment, as a society gets more technologically and economically advanced, the thinking goes religiosity naturally fades away and is replaced by more secular worldview. So it seems that the WT will be around for awhile, unfortunately...

We walked up to this one stand and two young ladies were selling health food products. As we walked away my wife stated, they were nice young ladies.

Do they know you are they uncle ??..I told her, they know I'am they uncle but they are shunning me..She exploded, what kind of religion were you in....WTH

  Fred I'am not being prissy or acting indignant about it, I realize the age of marriage in the US is 18 but most states allow marriage at 16 and 17 with parental consent and Nebraska 19 and Mississippi 21...But I feel 16 is to young to get married that's my opinion.
