Re: Forewarned.
What about the murder of fish by humans? Fish are even closer relatives to ringo than bacteria are! Eating fish is virtually cannibalism!

Re: Forewarned.
Kleinman:
We should start a protest group like PETA, but call it PETRR, people for the ethical treatment of ringo's relatives. We can start by marching on toothbrush manufacturers. Think of how many of ringo's relatives you spit down the drain every day. Such cruelty.
Dredge:
It too awful to even think about ... I will never clean my teeth again. Using toothpaste is murder!

And the scientific authority said, "Thou shalt not use toothpaste". And peace broke out for all that did not use toothpaste, for halitosis reigned the earth.

Re: Forewarned.
Kleinman:
The leader of that takeover is using these stooges to deny God. They don't understand that denying their Creator has immediate and long-term effects on their souls. They have no idea of mercy and where that mercy comes from.
Dredge:
Well said. I've long contended that the raison d'etre of the theory of evolution is to deceive the masses into believing that life on earth is the result of a natural process that's well understood by science, thereby doing away with the need of a divine Creator ... and that the source of this deception is the Evil One.

It is a complex and clever deception. On one hand it enables these people to deny the existence of God based on a falsehood, and on the other hand, it causes harm and death to those suffering from drug resistant infections and failed cancer treatments. This is something that has come from the mind of someone totally set on evil.

On any scale, this is heartless. Did you hear the one about the one armed fisherman? He was telling everyone about this big fish he caught. When one of the people asked, "just how big was that fish"? The one armed fisherman stuck out his arm and said, "it was that long".

Darwin got some things right but he really missed the target when it comes to universal common descent. He did give the correct explanation of how drug resistance occurs and why cancer treatments fail but biologists just can't figure out the math.

... which is nature worship - ie, a pagan feast day celebrated by atheists. Fascinating.

Let's not forget the plants, with whom we humans share a common ancestors. Next time you boil a potato, remember that you're boiling one of your cousins.

Re: Forewarned.
So a question to Dredge and Kleinman.
Were Evolution ever proven beyond a reasonable doubt to be the truth, would that one fact destroy Christianity? Why or why not?

Re: Forewarned.
The Catholic Church teaches that evolution is compatible with Christianity.

Re: Forewarned.
Considering our common ancestry, I see nothing unnatural or weird about a human being falling in love with a potato or a lettuce or an orange.

You are very slow at this. Evolution is true. Universal common descent is not true. We are not related to bacteria, potatoes, or chimpanzees. However, bacteria evolve drug resistance and cancer treatments do fail and both are due to evolutionary processes. Biologists have failed to understand how evolution works.
