  humans have produced many movies on extraterrestrials.

  yet all of them are shown in ugly form.

  why cant we depict an et more beautiful/handsome than humans.

  Devolution, not evolution

  by abiather in

  2. beliefs

  scientists discovered an organism that has not evolved in more than 2 billion years (http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/02/150203104131.htm) .

  one can dismiss this as an exception*!

  yet overwhelming proofs are too obvious to miss if we take the community as an individual (community is the reflection of the behavior pattern of the individuals that make up the whole).

  Do you sometimes feel stressed? Do you sometimes feel you have a lot of uncertainty in life? We are offering a free personality test this month..

  Is this the guy from the no-sex sect?

  The intcal13 dataset: The best evidence I know of for C14 dating.

  by bohm in

  2. bible

  carbon 14 dating is often dismissed as relying on the assumption the c14/c12 ratio in the past has been comparable to the present, however what is rarely acknowledged is this assumption can be checked.

  the way the assumption is checked is by finding a system which admits dating independent of c14.

  popular choices are dendrochronology, where tree-rings are counted and by matching variation in tree-ring width across trees it is possible to build a chronology stretching back 12000 years, or varvas, where yearly variations in sediment deposits in lakes admit chronologies to be build stretching back tens of thousands of years.

  Perry: Can you explain the correlation between C14 dating and the external dating methods in the above plot? Is  it chance?

  The takedowns must be because of the music. I think the more likely explanation is xjw filing complaints.

  konceptual99: Yah i get the "noahs flood f#cked up c14" would be the standard response, but i wonder if anyone has tried asking if noahs flood is really supposed to have mucked up dendrochronology, varves, corals and speleothems and this is just counting the standard C14 callibrations. Seems like it would sound far fetched to even a true believer.

  Simon: I am having problems posting some images in a reasonable resolution on this thread: 

  http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/84190001/intcal13-dataset-best-evidence-know-c14-dating

  The images are only about 50kb, but the text is very fuzzy. I just checked and the native images look okay. I have tried to upload them on the forum and to an external site and you can see both results on the thread. I wonder if this is me doing something wrong or if it is fixable

  How about the recent long movie about the dad who saved his family from the world by trusting jehovah? It was pretty thick with cliches
