God bless.

Back Room forum I attended at UCLA with Dr. Leakey Jr. "The head and torso of Lucy was found at one level, and the lower part of the fossil at another level, several hundred feet away." Lucy is supposed to be the missing link, but they can't prove it is the same fossil parts.

Have you ever noticed in the evolution debate that no species can be specifically identified as to what it was except humans? There is a debate about what all species were except humans. Doesn't that bother you? According to the records Humans and their derivatives have been on this earth the least amount of time than all the other species, yet they evolved pretty damn quickly by evolutionary standards.

PhD in evolutionary biochemistry here, We don’t know how life originated, but we understand the process of evolution

You are in my prayers. God bless your integrity.

It never ceases to amaze me the number of geniuses that know everything that have never picked up a book on the subject. Well, until I enter a comments secrion. Then its full of scholars. Do some actual research if you actually care.

[ssn-tough-ltl]

This is a brilliant and inspiring man and professor. Wonderful testimony.

Did nobody else learn that evolution is the process in which genes experience mutations, and that mutations that are favorable to the environment survive through reproduction in favor of the less desirable genes?

As a PhD in engineering that does research involving bioinformatics. We use algorithms to "reverse-evolve" bacteria based on its marker genes to predict its functions. This saves the cost of sequencing the entire genome and let's you get away with just sequencing a small segment of an rRNA. And these marker gene evolutionary models have up 85% accuracy of shotgun metagenomics. The predictive nature of the evolution is probably best evidence of the theory. Without it, you wouldnt be able to conduct biomedical studies involving gut health such as the gut microbiome.

Brave man for speaking up. It's not an easy road. 👏👏

Only religion can make people deny a scientific theory with a massive pile of evidence (evolution) but at the same time allow the same people build their entire life and moral structure based on a belief of a non-provable, spaceless, timeless, omnibenevolent and perfect being (god).

[higiniomorales]

This actually reminds me of a certain quote, "the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence".

We can't prove this madness, but we know it happened.

Romans 1:22
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

[tatie]

Wow! Are we blessed to have Dr. James Tours or what?

[Crackle]

Evolution seems very logical. It seems easy to see the logical progression. Not at all mysterious.

[lucas____________]

This is like someone saying, before Einsteins theory of relativity, that “well gravity clearly isn’t real because we don’t know why massive objects attract each other.” Like sure, we don’t know everything, but we can at least observe evolution happens

[Wilm-uq]

Its refreshing when scientists are able to be this honest.

[gideonyunkura]

Genetic modification of plants is proof of understanding evolution. But is not indicative of knowing an absolute truth to how evolution began. Although theoretically scientific study believes in FUCA and LUCA.

[jonageskuland]

The Evolution Theory will devolve into obliteration

[theswan]

It takes faith to belueve in evolution

Everyone forgets the basics of genetics. Let’s suppose a beneficial mutation occurs in an organism, in the male of the genus or the class level in the taxonomy scheme. That mutation in the male DNA needs to be matched identically to the female DNA in order for is to be manifested in the offspring as a dominant gene and trait. Otherwise, if the male DNA trait has no matching female DNA, it becomes a recessive gene that basically gets lost in the various possible combinations in the DNA chromosomes until a matching mutation is produced in a mate somewhere in successive generations. I think I described this correctly. Please comment if I missed something. Thanks to Mr. Herb Perlman who was my high school science teacher in 1972.

I'll leave the gospel here:

How do you get to hell?
Very simple: claim that you're innocent.

How do you get to heaven?
Very simple: Admit that you're not Innocent, you're guilty and ask for mercy.

How to know if you're guilty or not?
Simply: Compare your life to the Ten Commandments God gave you in the Bible.
Everyone agrees that if people followed the ten commandments there would be no need for governments or police.

Do not lie.
Do not steal.
Do not commit adultery.
Do not insult God by using his name as a cuss word.
There are six more but let's just leave it at that.

How many lies have you told in your life?

Have you ever taken anything that didn't belong to you?

Jesus said, if you look at a women lustfully you've already committed adultery in your heart with that woman.
How many times a day do you do that?

Do you use God's name as a cuss word?
Would you do that with your own mother's name?

If you answer these questions honestly you know that you're guilty.

God can justly punish you and send you to hell.

Ask him for mercy.
His name is Jesus. It's as simple as this, The Ten Commandments are called the moral law. You and I broke God's laws. Jesus paid the fine.
The fine is death.

Ezekiel 18:20 —
"The soul who sins shall die."

That's why Jesus had to die on the cross for our sins. This is why God is able to give us Mercy.

Option A.
You die for your own sins.

Option B.
Ask for mercy and accept that Jesus died on the cross for you
