    Nude Evolution: the right progression of selection pressures, will evolve "Evolution"?

    Hi there, So to contradict this thought experiment, you basically have to say "there is no selection pressure for selection pressure"? The thought experiment is basically simple: a sequence of selection pressures lead to Darwin discovering "Evolution" and the same concept could be used to lead...

    Fear Not! Believe God!

    John 14:1-4 ESV “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that...

    So a part of an animal, adapts and devolves, repeatedly, one generation to the next...

    Hi there, So the thought experiment here is just to examine whether I understand the concept "adaptation" properly or not: say part of an animal adapts and devolves, under selection pressure, then not - one set of generations on, one set of generations off. The epigenome will make no attempt to...

    Lives of Holiness and Godliness

    2 Peter 3:9 ESV “The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.” When Jesus came to earth the first time it was to die for our sins. One day he is going to return to the...

    Is advertising the mark of the anti-Christ for televisions?

    Hi there, So this is basically an object lesson, that not everything tolerated by the spirit is wise, and not everything wise is a target. What do I mean by that? I mean take televisions, there is a pure signal, which gives you clear reception and there is no reason to think it will cease to...

    What fulfils the function of "preservation" - within Evolutionary theory?

    Hi there, So the assumption is typically that "anything better than mutation, is worth preserving", but I have not yet seen the evidence that preservation has natural causes (something demanded by "science", no?). Moreover, it has not been demonstrated that "preservation" has a particular...

    What Will It Take?

    I was just watching Bloom Today, a Christian show focused on healing, recovery and the spiritual journey, and feel confused about it. There was a female writer from the USA talking about her journey of grief (the death of her sister as a child) and the difficulty she had of ever feeling or...

    So you get to Heaven, and there is still so much more you could 'evolve' - disappointed?

    Hi there, So this is basically the problem of the faith, when it comes to "Evolution" - that is, this is what people with faith object to, when they say "I would rather just be in Heaven (with God), than 'evolve' - that is, in a way that prevents me from being with God." What exactly is enough...

    Psalms 119:161-168 ESV “Princes persecute me without cause, but my heart stands in awe of your words. I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil. I hate and abhor falsehood, but I love your law. Seven times a day I praise you for your righteous rules. Great peace have...

    How are we going to deal with the Christian "Stereotype" (the World's stereotype for us)?

    Hi there, So you could probably approach this, from an infinitely large number of angles, I just wondered what you would think: specifically, on the basis of your entitlement to be loved by the Brethren, but as the world sees it? What I mean is, you are entitled to be loved on the basis of the...

    Your Hope Fully on the Grace

    As Obedient Children 1 Peter 1:13-16 ESV “Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but...

    He is Our Hiding Place

    The Double-Minded Psalms 119:113 ESV “I hate the double-minded, but I love your law.” The Double-minded are those who are trying to go left and to go right at the same time. They are trying to be righteous while at the same time they are living in deliberate, habitual, and premeditated sin...

    No one who hopes in God will ever be put to shame

    Psalms 25:3 - No one who hopes in you will ever be put to shame. Amen! This is a promise, the truth and the destination of whoever hopes and waits upon God. We are serving the same God whom David is testifying in the Psalms 25:3. God doesn't change, He is the same yesterday, today and forever...
