I would be very interested in a thread about the differences between JW's and other Christianity
i'd be happy to contribute to a thread about jw's beliefs and how they differ from the mainstream.
There was a thread about this not too long ago - let me look it up when I get home and I'll post the link, rather than starting a new one :)
And Peg, I gotta spread the love apparently, but thanks for explaining that so well, I certainly wouldn't have made as much sense!
Hi Cricket, thanks for your detailed response. :hug:
I mostly have a problem with what you have written here:
This may be what you believe but it is not scientifically correct. New genetic information is created all the time in all sorts of different ways but mostly though recombination via sexual reproduction and mutation. Also, scientifically one species doesn’t turn into another one, they evolve from a common ancestor. As a scientist, I think you are misrepresenting science to describe it as you have. If you want to believe that that’s what happens, that’s fine, but I wanted to correct the record for science.
Of course I am not going to be able to show you the formation of a new species but I suspect that even if I could, you won’t believe it anyway, because you’re just not ever going to, that’s just not who you are. The scientific evidence that I have studied and see in the field is more than enough "proof" for me.
No, no, not all, I am sorry if I have given that impression (surely I didn’t :redface: ). But I was hurt by a careless choice of words. It is a very short shuffle from saying "what you believe in is crazy" to "you are crazy" and I know I most certainly am not. :lol:
I found it! This was started as a question thread about certain beliefs of JW's, so feel free to put any questions in there, no matter how dumb you think they might be (they're not dumb!), and we can have a good 'ole discussion :)
