    Do we have to prevent other species from becoming "humanoid" to survive or do we encourage them?

    Hi there, So this is the philosophical "glass half empty or glass half full" (see philosophy has its uses!): Ultimately greater humanoids could take over, or they could show us better? Where do you stand?

    How do you evolve, a "fact"?

    Hi there, So my immediate reaction to this idea, was that it's not possible to evolve a fact. I admit that. You can change the context in which it is viewed or how its interpreted, but that fact itself remains the same. I recognise that. Once I recognised that, I started to think: "maybe the...

    Yes! Every species, has a capacity to be "amenable" to the changes its species will make?

    Hi there, So I understand what the foundation of Evolutionist's insistence, on correlation between the species and the individual being specie-wide is: agency of the individual, is affected by the degree that individual can be amenable. Therefore, amenability that still justifies the...

    Do you feel that changes in your generation, are taking you back to being a monkey, or forward?

    Hi there, So this is something we can easily and lightly discuss, right? If the evidence was in a cocoon, you could tell, right? So what is it, now that the changes were in you already, as you say (it not being about individual, but the species)? Or has Evolution hit us dead on, in terms of...

    If a particular individual evolves greatly, does social pressure normalize the greater evolution?

    Hi there, So I posted about a parasite evolving with the host of the parasite, and it dawned on me that maybe Evolution goes the other way: maybe a particular individual who evolves greatly, is more greatly copied by the population with him. In other words, there is a social pressure to...

    Evolution (or like) that is trained to respond to false positives, is a stronger Evolution (or like)

    Hi there, So indeed, there is a question here of whether Evoutionists are identifying anything new, now that they have a semblance of a theory - that is supposed to identify relevant change (wrong?)? In principle, any theory at all, benefits from responding to what are called "false positives"...

    If by patience, you possess your soul, to the end - you will not enter tribulation

    Hi there, So Jesus gave us a very clear command that can be interpreted as a promise (when it comes to salvation): He said "By patience possess your souls" (Luke 21:19). He also said "He who endures to the end will be saved" (Matthew 24:13). If you combine these two things, the power of the...

    If God likes me bit by bit, in the end I will be what He wanted me to be (yes)

    Hi there, So I have a substitute faith for Evolution: if God likes me bit by bit, in the end I will be what He wanted me to be. It's not complicated, it just suggests that the struggle to be Christian, comes with a commitment to the end. The world may say "you are what God wants you to be...

    Unknowns, are better for science, than repetitions of what is assumed to be known (selah)

    Hi there, So there is a philosophical problem, with Scientism. That problem, is the value Scientism gives that which it starts out with. Science starts with unknowns. Scientism, takes those unknowns and equivocates that all unknowns have the same fundamental value. That value is antecedent...

    The chicken or the egg? Both.

    Hi there, So I have come to the conclusion, that what we understand as the beginning, rests on entering into a relationship. That relationship, under the right circumstances, leads to a stable interaction with the world - from the point of which, what is created in that beginning, can be...

    God is obliged, to help you evolve? On Earth, "no"; in Heaven, "yes" - Discuss.

    Hi there, So further to my discussion of the relevance of a host, to Evolution, I have started to wonder about God, specifically God helping creatures "evolve". Is God obliged to help creatures "evolve"? This question comes down to where it is that God offers the help. Jesus tells us "I do not...

    The flesh resonates with the flesh: "the truth!", the flesh resonates with the soul: "heresy!" - no?

    Hi there, So after much argument and contention, I finally realised what it is that I think is the problem with Evolution: its about the flesh resonating with the flesh. You are told, "the flesh grows and mutates and has to grow again, to become what it is" and you are expected to believe that...

    "Whatever is not of faith is sin" - if God knew to create and did not, God would be in Hell?

    Hi there, So the full statement I wanted to make, was this: We are all obliged to do what we can about faith, this applies to God, as well. God could refuse to create, even, but His conscience would convict Him that He had not done something He had faith to do. God being God, He has an infinite...

    Bear in mind, even if you survive your mental health issue, persecutions will follow?

    Hi there, So yes Mark 10:30 makes it very clear, that what we suffer for God and His kingdom will be rewarded but that even being rewarded, there will be persecutions that follow with that rewarding. It's like someone learning to ride a bike, if they have an accident on the footpath - running...

    Not sure if you can do this: but could you program the forums to show the "ratio" of views to posts

    Hi there, So yes, I am not sure if you can do this, but I have started trying to work out ratios of views to posts, which I can do, but not being great at maths I find it quite difficult. If you could take away the other two (views and posts) and just show that, that would be great. Again...

    A population of variations of the Greatest Evolution, varies the greatest it can "evolve"?

    Hi there, So, new concept: if there is Evolution that is good, there is Evolution that is best. Conclusion: if the best is varied, the best will be prolonged. Interpretation: there is better that can be evolved, until keeping what has already been evolved becomes more important. The point being...

    Maybe this will clarify: can I encourage my offspring's instinct for Evolution?

    Hi there, So this is simple one way but complicated another: my offspring's instinct for Evolution, ultimately consists of the conversion of my experience of it (for them). There are a number of stages at which I can guide my offspring, as regards what they believe about Evolution. First of...

    Why does God allow suffering? Bear in mind, those that don't need a perfect distraction, suffer less

    Hello, There are so many ways to answer that God does everything He can to avoid or abate suffering, that it can seem like no one has a definitive answer. However, we can start to understand that God is in the midst of suffering. For example, that God is able to distract us from suffering. The...

    Logic: if apes connected to humans, humans can "reconnect" to humans - what is the good of that?

    Hi there, So yes, a simple element of logic here: if apes connected to humans (genealogically), could humans not "reconnect" to other humans? I have said before that "the Evolution of a specific survival, is different from the optimum survival for that Evolution" this is merely an extension of...

    Variation of nuance (of Evolution?), ensures more survive. Discuss.

    Hi there, So this is straight up probability: a diversified nest egg, is less likely to suffer a loss. The same is true of Evolution: a variation of the nuance adapted, ensures the young will more likely live on. I'm wondering if you can see the connection. It's basically introducing the...
