Re: Pandemic of the Unvaccinated, or Unhealthy?

Care to respond to this? It’s an important point that you didn’t address: Tell me how much greater is the risk of vaccine injury or death, for those vaccinated, compared to the unvaccinated. And people who are healthy, and in a low risk age group, need to consider that before getting the “vaccines”...

Re: Pandemic of the Unvaccinated, or Unhealthy?

No one denies that the "unhealthy" are at greater risk for hospitalization and death from covid than the "healthy". That is precisely why the vaccines were first rolled out to those who were at greater risk due to age and preexisting conditions. That said, No matter where you go,...

Re: Can Mutation Invent?

We have a real life example on the table of two mutations working together to form a new function in malaria's resistance to chloroquine. Due to the exponential nature of the two mutations occurring, you presume that this particular example involves two non-beneficial mutations working together to ...

Re: Can Mutation Invent?

But to spell it out explicitly... Nills said... But first, there is an enormous amount of evidence of multiple beneficial mutations (which by definition give new functions). So the question is whether a lot of these small increments of functions can produce complex functions. There is an enormous a...

Re: Can Mutation Invent?

Summarising the discussion so far it seems that you now understand that several beneficial mutations can give new functions faster than several non-beneficial mutations. Now, it seems that you doubt that many beneficial mutations can produce complex functions. Oh I understand the premise that sever...

Re: Can Mutation Invent?

But Malaria is not alone. There are many diseases out there in the world, and scientists are constantly developing new drugs to fight these diseases. If multiple beneficial mutations are able to create new functions exponentially faster than multiple non-beneficial mutations (like malaria developin...

Re: Can Mutation Invent?

I will now again try to make my argument clearer, showing which assumptions I make, without using any new terminology. My presumptions are: - Mutations occur randomly and the probability of one specific mutation to occur in some specific DNA point during the lifetime of one individual is a fixed va...

Re: The Last Days According to Jesus

I cannot imagine how miserable life must be for a Christian who thinks he can lose salvation. Always having to make sure he doesn’t do something wrong that would throw him into hell. It’s such an unnecessary weight to be placed on himself. I thank God that Jesus Christ paid the price for my salvati...

Re: Are you going to get Vaccinated? Why, why not?

So if a person chooses not to get a vaccine they are not loving their neighbour? We all have different ways and different opportunities to follow Jesus' command to "love our neighbor". Christians can demonstrate their love for their neighbors in a variety of different ways. One of the man...
