  Probably.

  Evolutionary algorithms, a subfield of machine learning (itself a subfield of artificial intelligence), have been used to mathematically demonstrate that randomness and selection can be used to "evolve" complex, highly adapted structures that are not explicitly designed by a programmer. Evolutionary algorithms use the Darwinian metaphor of random mutation, selection and the survival of the fittest to solve diverse mathematical and scientific problems that are usually not solvable using conventional methods. Intelligence derived from randomness is essentially indistinguishable from the "innate" intelligence associated with biological organisms, and poses a challenge to the intelligent design conception that intelligence itself necessarily requires a designer.

  i wonder if some of the palpable anti-american anger is because it's where wts was born.. i'm not interested in political views.

  i'm also not interested in posts about how stupid americans/their culture is and how smart the rest of the world is.

  Does a Cult Background Assist Atheists?

  by Perry in

  2. beliefs

  the march 2009 american religious identification survey from trinity college and the march 7, 2009, national journal article on "rise of the godless" present the following data: .

  when asked for their religious affiliation, 15 percent of americans say none, but only 0.7 percent say atheist ..... .

  i present the above info just as a reminder that very, very few people consider themselves atheist despite decades of "scientific" propaganda suggesting otherwise.

  Do you think that the experience with a bible cult has helped you develop the C. D. that is required for your atheism?

  I've never seen a study that hinted at such a rash conclusion, and it doesn't correspond to my personal experience. Imo, your thesis is just an emotional outcry against a minority group that has been much distrusted (and maybe even discriminated against) in your country.

  while i was a witness, i never liked or cared for j.f.

  rutherford.

  even with the society's whitewashing and trying to make him look like one who was part of the seven trumpet blasts in revelation, i could not stand the guy.
