    I could probably get through Shogun in 15 hours.
    Or my maths is very bad (but then again, at least I can spell maths).

    The issue is that there is a glaring gaping hole between what you are claiming and what is evidenced by your posts. On one hand you claimed to have 'studied evolution all my life', and yet your posts here clearly show you don't even have a basic, rudimentary understanding of the topic.
    Ok, so if one see's even on the surface of a subject that it is wrong and will always be wrong as is acknowledged by many on all levels of life and all levels of education that it is wrong and not correct, I should still go ahead and study it deeper and in affect "waste" my time to learn even more that it is wrong?
    I think not.....

    I thought you claimed to be 'open-minded'? What harm can come from reading one book? One that someone else is willing to pay for.

    Lol, if I weren't open minded I wouldn't know anything about evolution would I? But in fact I am more then willing to learn all I can about all things in order to deside if it is something I would like to pursue more.
    But it is foolish to continue on researching something to the level you'd like for me to do if I already know it's not for me and good for my future and my relationship with God. Right? Right.

    So if I'd agree to have someone here send me a book on porn for free, I should accept? Think on your comments a little more.

    You are being asked to read one book Galveston, not undertake a 3 year graduate program. It'll take a couple of weeks to read at most.

    You really don't get it do you? Anyway see if somehow you can prove by your own words or reasoning on how evolution is true, if indeed you can?

    I get it alright, you're a thoroughly disingenuous, pathological liar. We can lump you in with Robbie, another religious fundamentalist too scared to read a science book. Funny, but ultimately pretty tragic.

    As usual here comes the attacks like clock work. This to me is absolute proof that you nor any other of the evolutionist can never back up you evolution theories.
    I started the other thread to give all of you an honest opportunity to explain why you think or believe you have proof that it is actually true as you all so blantantly preach.
    It seems you are dodging it again when you have a chance to to explain.
    Again I ask, why can't you?

    Don't you think we have persecuted these poor JWs enough by now. It will take an act of God to change their minds, so just leave them to their delusions. And what does it matter if they do not believe in evilution or know very little about it?

    It's not an 'attack', it's the truth. 🙂

    I'm not dodging anything, because I haven't said anything to dodge. I have no interest in discussing the topic with you as you have shown yourself over the years to be a thoroughly disingenuous character. It would be a complete waist (pun intended) of my time. You're 57 years, you have a brain, try using it.

    As for proving evolution. Richard Dawkins, arguably the greatest science writer of the last 40 years, has written 11 books on the topic it's that vast. Here you are asking non science writers to condense it all down to a page or two. It's laughable.
