    Just Accidental?

    You can't really blame Deeje .. well, sort of.... His religion discourage higher education so it seems like the congregants are sort of sticking to this discouragement.

    Just Accidental?

    Deeje. I tried this with MANY JWs and they failed miserably; let me see if you can do better :) You are here bashing "Organic Evolution" which suggest that you know/understand, even at the basic level, what is "evolution" in a biological sense. So, before we start seriously consider your...

    Just Accidental?

    And... why are you limiting the ability of your supposedly all-powerful God?? Who are you to suggest that God isn't powerful enough to accomplish all those in 24-hour days? In fact, why would an all-powerful God even need 24 hours to accomplish anything?

    Just Accidental?

    No Deeje; I am not stating what I believe here. I am just stating what is supposed to be a factual statement - it has nothing to do with your interpretation of Genesis or anyone's belief. What I stated is that, [almost] everytime you see the word "day" with a number before it, it (the word...

    A Challenge To All Creationists

    As I Micheal Shermer once said " If we never went to a computer plant and see how computers are made, then many persons would believe that there are little people running around in the screen and writing things on it, and that belief could be viewed as rational." Rusra02 equating innate objects...

    Just Accidental?

    Deeje I think you massively missed the point; you are really a true JW :). The point is this: Whenever you use the word "day" and it is preceded by a number, the "day" is [almost] always literal. I stand corrected if you can show me in scriptures OR IN ANY OTHER WRITINGS where it would be...

    Creationists, help me understand this, please.

    No; my response is directed at Creationist. I need to understand their explanation for their position - I will ask "evolutionists" is I need to understand theirs :)

    Creationists, help me understand this, please.

    Ok; so, can you show me some scriptures that suggest that a biblical "kind can produce offspring" [ if this means interbreed]? And, your answer points back to my original question. From a creationist's perspective, on what basis do you determine that a housecat and a lion can produce...

    Creationists, help me understand this, please.

    On several creationist debates and speeches, I often hear about the different "kinds" (eg the CAT kind, the DOG kind etc). I even heard several creationist suggested that when a "kinds" breeds with another of its "kind," it will always produces its same "kind" (with some degree of variation...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    But that's what Leviticus stated. It stated "vultures after their kinds" and "carrion vultures after their kinds." Looking on the scriptures, it is clear that the bible was showing two different "kinds." The Leviticus chapter start by saying "And these you shall regard as an abomination among...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    Actually that's not the name of Darwin's book; that's just a part of the book's name. I won't comment much on the book itself since you have not read it so it would be a bit unfair. However, it would be a bit odd to base a claim simply by how one book is titled (even though the book contains...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    Understand and agreed: one fossil could likely be explained away with the "twin" thing, but 10 or even 100 fossils would demand a bit more explanation. Now this was (and the purpose of this thread was) to show how evolution would work without resorting to "the original." The same environmental...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    Thanks for your telling your understanding of "human." So, as I asked Pegg, if you were to find 10 fossil of this in the past, would you consider this a fossil of a "human" and why (if you would).

    My Time on RF has also Come to an End

    Farewell, JayJay. We might not always agree but I do enjoy your participation on the various issues. All the best in whatever you plan to do next.

    The Ultimate Explanation

    Shiranui You are making the same mistake as JayJay (I am still wondering if you guys read the OP). What I originally asked, essentially, was this: "If you went to some remote area and saw a 100,000 weird-looking creatures (note.. I did not say humans or people) with some human-looking...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    I think this statement from you is enough to convince me that either you severely lack understanding or is just playing silly. In my OP, I mentioned if you saw 100,000 creatures and asked if you would classify them as "humans." NO WHERE DID I ASKED ABOUT 100,000 PEOPLE. You know, I am not...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    Great... Good answer. Now compare that answer a slight twist of my original question: Assuming for a moment that you lived in a city where you have not much access to what's going on in other parts of the world. Then, you travelled to a remote part of some remote forest scientist shows you 10...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    I'm sorry, but where did I suggest "that this is an example of an eight limb human being capable of reproducing others like itself?" As I asked before, stay focus - I have never suggested anything like that. Apart from this being a ridiculous statement, what does this has to do with the...

    The Ultimate Explanation

    JayJay Can you try to focus a bit? You keep discussing the individual case in India which I am not asking about. You keep mentioning twins and that sort which has nothing to do with my question. I am aware of the India event; if you want to discuss that, can you start a thread? We see...

    Actually, that was going to be my next question: whether you consider them sapien sapien; you first me :)
