Why did the man laugh do you know or are you painting your own motivations into his laugh? I laugh and you interpreted it as me saying it is false. I corrected you, you kept on saying I mean it as false. It is you here who has a 2 bit IQ level.

You presented a picture and claimed that because it has black pre modern humans turning into a white modern human therefore racism, I have to wonder if your IQ is even up to 2 bits and its not actually 1 bit. if this is the kind of argument you can muster.

I always told you forced laughter isn't healthy, now see how spirited you are trying to defend the fact you laughed. Just be your joker/clown self. I'm used to it.

As a joker/clown, you claimed firstly no racism in modern evolutionary illustrations, you said I should show you, I did. You failed to comprehend what you asked for and what I gave you, even with the prints you still didn't comprehend. The point incase you missed it, is that evolutionary illustrations are still racist as it were in the 19th century.
LordReed:


So you admit to using outdated information. LoL!


LordReed:


LoL! You pointed to 19th century information, can you show me any current evolutionary theory book that says any of these things? No you can't because you want to hang on to outdated information.

I'll break it down to your IQ level, now listen to this analogy.

A girl accused a guy of RAPE on social media.

Response 1:
The man sees the RAPE ACCUSATION but IGNORES it, he only laughs like a clown. By laughing he BERATES her claim of RAPE as if it was FALSE without necessarily proving it.
Your first response below

LordReed:
SMH, LMFAO!

Response 2:
The man sees the RAPE ACCUSATION and takes it seriously. He defends himself by DENYING the claim as FALSE.

Both response achieved similar goals but with deferent approach. The first approach, IGNORING is even worse!

I hope its simiplied for your IQ to pick up

PS: you also tried to pass a false information when you finally commented by claiming racism from evolution was just 19th century stuff, cause i quoted a literature based on that and that it could not be found in more recent evolutionary literature, which I disproved.

The funny thing is that they have indoctrinated not only the Caucasians but also blacks into believing that they are inferior to the Caucasians and evolutionists like LordReed would ignorantly swallow the bait hook, line and stinker. They have equally brainwashed students of the need of abortion, moral relativism, same sex marriage, climate change, violence by way of protests, liberal ideologies and so on. This is what happens when they refuse to believe the truth they then become open to believing and teaching a lie.

You are very right and observant. Those quotes are from top evolutionists even Darwin himself. The truth can never stay hidden forever.

How can you ignore something as false? If you say something is false then you are denying it, simple.

Your claims are a symptom of deliberate misunderstanding. You feel the theory is against your god beliefs I presume so you clutch at straws in other to say it is false while completely ignoring reality. Evolution has and continues to withstand all manner of scrutiny from people who don't have a preconceived conclusion they are out to achieve. As I pointed out, you lot can quite easily win a Nobel prize if you really had facts. You don't so it won't happen.

I'm a scientist myself and winning the Nobel prize isn't my goal. The general science community are atheists, as such any claim that doesnt have an atheist undertone will not be adopted irrespective of the evidence presented before it as a paper. You can ignore something because you feel its false by not discussing about it or you can deny something is false by discussing about it but not accepting the facts, yours is the former.

Religion / Misconceptions About Slavery In The Bible for Atheists/Theists by onlyfacts: 11:45am On Jun 05, 2020
The original-language words rendered “slave” or “servant” are not limited in their application to persons owned by others, as we know it today. Hebrew word "ʽeʹvedh" which refers to slave or servant can refer to:

1. Persons owned by fellowmen(which is how we understand slavery today - Ex.20:17)

2. Or the term can designate subjects of a king(may or may not be an actual slave but person rendering service - 2Sa 11:21; 2Ch 10:7)

3. Subjugated peoples who paid tribute (these are colonized people forming part of an empire or kingdom, like we had in our time - 2Sa 8:2, 6)

4. "ʽEʹvedh" was also used in referring to worshipers (servants) of Jehovah (1Ki 8:36; 2Ki 10:23) and more specificallyto special representatives of God, such as Moses. (Jos 1:1, 2; 24:29; 2Ki 21:10)

The Greek term douʹlos corresponds to the Hebrew word ʽeʹvedh.

CONDITIONS THAT LEAD TO SLAVERY

1. Before the Common Era. War, poverty, and crime were the basic factors that reduced persons to a state of servitude. Captives of war were often constituted slaves by their captors or were sold into slavery by them. (Compare 2Ki 5:2; Joe 3:6.)
The Israelites experienced being captives many times, unlike in modern times where little captives are taken during warfare and almost everyone is killed. Taking captives were a more humane way of stopping the needless killings and wasting of human lives. International peace organizations like the UNO have done a lot in trying to maintain global peace as such, war is no longer a prominent factor that reduced person's into a state of servitude.

HOW WERE SLAVES TREATED IN ISRAEL?

Laws governing slave-master relationships- the Hebrew slave was to be released in the seventh year of his servitude or in the Jubilee year, depending upon which came first. During the time of his servitude the Hebrew slave was to be treated as a hired laborer. (Ex 21:2; Le 25:10; De 15:12)
A Hebrew who sold himself into slavery to an alien resident, to a member of an alien resident’s family, or to a settler could be repurchased at any time, either by himself or by one having the right of repurchase. The redemption price was based on the number of years remaining until the Jubilee year or until the seventh year of servitude. (Le 25:47-52; De 15:12)
When granting a Hebrew slave his freedom, the master was to give him a gift to assist him in getting a good start as a freedman. (De 15:13-15).

Protections and privileges. The Law protected slaves from brutalities. A slave was to be set at liberty if mistreatment by the master resulted in the loss of a tooth or an eye. As the usual value for a slave was 30 shekels (compare Ex 21:32), his liberation would have meant considerable loss to the master and, therefore, would have served as a strong deterrent against abuse. Although a master could beat his slave, the slave, depending upon the decision of the judges, was to be avenged if he died under his master’s beating (Ex 21:20, Le 24:17).
Certain privileges were granted to slaves by the terms of the Law. As all male slaves were circumcised like all the free males(Ex 12:44; compare Ge 17:12), they could eat the Passover, and slaves of the priest could eat holy things. (Ex 12:43, 44; Le 22:10, 11) Slaves were exempted from working on the Sabbath. (Ex 20:10; De 5:14) During the Sabbath year they were entitled to eat of the growth from spilled kernels and from the unpruned vine. (Le 25:5, 6) They were to share in the rejoicing associated with the sacrificing at the sanctuary and the celebration of the festivals.—De 12:12; 16:11, 14.

2. First-Century Christian Position - In the Roman Empire slaves were very numerous, with Roman individuals owning hundreds and even thousands of slaves. The institution of slavery had the protection of the imperial Roman government which the Israelites were under.
First-century Christians who lived under the Roman government did not take a stand against governmental authority in this matter as they were peaceful and did not advocate a slaves’ revolt. They respected the legal right of others (Roman's, Greek etc), including fellow Christians, to own slaves. But Christian master were to treat their slaves according to the privileges of the Jewish system, which includes granting them their freedom in due time and material benefits to start afresh. The apostle Paul also admonished Christian slaves not to take improper advantage of their relationship with believing masters ( 1 Ti 6: 2) For a slave to have a Christian master was a blessing, as his owner was under obligation to deal righteously and fairly with him.—Eph 6:9; Col 4:1.
In the Christian congregation all persons, regardless of their social status whether slaves or free men, enjoyed the same standing. All were anointed by the same spirit and thus shared in the same hope as members of one body. (1Co 12:12, 13; Ga 3:28; Col 3:11)

3. Enslavement to Sin. This is the last and most common rendition of slavery in the Bible that most people are familiar with so I won't dive into it.

In summary,the highlight of the Bible's dealing with slaves showed it was more than fair. All slaves had a chance of being repurchased at anytime or released at the 7th year of servitude or at the jubilee year, whichever came first. If they were injured in servitude they were to be released immediately, if they were killed in servitude by the master, the master was to be killed in return. They were also to be given a gift on their release to help them not fall back into servitude.

Bwahahahahaha! So your objection here is the pictures are painted with colours you perceive as racist? This is a joke. LMFAO!

There is no attempt to deny anything because history is there for us to learn from our mistakes. Did people use evolutionary theory as a basis for racism? Yes they did, just like they used the bible for a basis for slavery, this is human history of mistreatment of one another. However our current understandings don't condone this thing so to come out and begin to paint this false picture shows you have a poor understanding of the theory and you are simply regurgitating nonsense you saw somewhere.

You yourself have admitted to it, unlike your previous post were you tried to ignore it as false. The evolutionary theory created a system of social Darwinism and scientific racism that has endured for centuries. Current evolutionist have tried to change the narrative in recent times due to genetic studies showing all race of humans are actually 99.9% alike in our Genome. But there are still some fundamental flaws:

1. Like I have proved on many occasions, the EVOLUTIONARY THEORY is pseudoscience without sufficient evidence backing it. Unlike other scientific THEORIES, it cannot carry it's own weight under scrutiny. Read your signature, it states: "any truth that cannot withstand scrutiny is fake".

2. Since the Evolutionary theory is flawed, its continued use should be abolished and other concepts should be explored. Abolishing it will finally bust the ego of many whites that consciously or subconsciously use it as a bases for racism.

oh, I get your point of argument. It is called the argument from Incredulity


It's impossible to "calculate mathematically" how improbable it was without knowing the processes and circumstances that brought it about. Most Creationist essays pretend to estimate the chances of a modern protein forming by the random assembly of component amino acids. Of course, such an event would be hugely improbable, which is why it almost certainly didn't happen that way. But just because it didn't assemble randomly doesn't mean it was intelligently planned.

I will stick to the topic of this post that centres on EVOLUTIONARY THEORY: a cause of RACISM. Like I said, anyway you look at it, retro,presently or mathematically you'll have an inconclusive answer, which is not supposed to be so for a THEORY. Other scientific THEORIES can still pull their weight under scrutiny but Evolutionary theory at best is make believe, a source of racism and supremacy ideology amongst others.

That is not evolution. You just described abiogenesis. Evolution by natural selection never made any such claim you stated up. Evolution by natural selection is only telling us how complex life and how different species came about.

you are talking about the origin of life which is not related to evolution but abiogenesis


Evolution is a fact same way gravity is also a fact


You failed to realise that the mathematically odds of one specie jumping to another or formed by mutation and natural selection as is thought in EVOLUTION is less than one chance out of a trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion! (I thought you would have picked this clue above)

Now this supposedly happened several times over for all the different species we have under EVOLUTION, which is simply an impossible odd, it's a computing disaster! (You also failed to pick this clue from my previous post on evolution)

And then you have the fossil records with missing links and for those claimed to be "discovered", still uncovered to be fraudulent missing links.

Evolution can never equate to gravity. The facts of the existence of gravity is observable, it can be explained as a theory, can be experimented on to confirm the existence of gravity and mathematical it can be verified as a law.

Evolution holds no such truth either retrospectively with fossils, presently with advance in science or mathematical with its astronomical odds.

No, evolution is scientific fact. That is, it is a process that has been very consistently and reliably observed, both in “real time,” and in both genetic and fossil records, and for which a huge number of such observations have borne it out.

The only way evolutionary science could be pseudoscience is if no one applied scientific methods to questions about evolution. That would require a rather massive conspiracy.


Evolution by natural selection does not lead to social Darwinism.

social Darwinism Is just an ideology that’s trying to use the scientific theory of natural selection


Guess you dont know the scientific fraud in evolution?

Retrospective evaluation and mathematical models does not support it. The probability that life came from outer space into the chaotic prehistoric harsh earth environment in the form of microorganisms or vital molecules necessary to form DNA and life are astronomically slim, the odds are seemly impossible. And to believe the odds still favoured the diversification of all life forms into their male and female kinds even if it's trillions of years ago is still mathematically an impossible odd. It is less than one chance out of a billion trillion, the chance that a 200-component organism could be formed by mutation and natural selection is less than one chance out of a trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion! 

My head hurt just thinking about the numbers!

Fossil records doesn't also support it, as their are vital "missing links" and "important missing link frauds". I will mention only notably ones by genuine scientist, others are ongoing currently. Examples are Piltdown Man, Nebraska Man, Archaeoraptor, Cardiff Giant, Alyoshenka, Fake Fannia Fly, Amphicoelias fragillimus, Piluxy River Tracks, Fiji Mermaid amongst others. Without this vital missing links evolution is based on poor evidence.

The existence of evolution also fosters racial prejudice. Read my previous post here for more of that!

Look at yet another picture from a modern evolutionary book "The human evolution in science textbook from twelve different countries published in 2008". Read the extracts from the attach images below....see white supremacy ideology and see how recent those evolutionary illustrations are, check the dates they were published. Note those with red dots on their heads are the black men, fully erect, having the looks, the stature and all other physical attributes of modern man but not yet the finished product according to them. The finished product happened to be an illustrated white man due to racism of superior mentality.

And like I said your logic is flawed. The title ones again of this post is EVOLUTIONARY THEORY: A CAUSE OF RACISM.

Such thought exists today with pernicious assumptions about the current nature of black life and black people, still featuring age-old racist references to blacks as animals. It persists despite the advent of modern DNA science, which has shown race to be fundamentally a social construct. Humans, as it turns out, share about 99.9 percent of their DNA with each other, and outward physical characteristics such as hair texture and skin color, about which racists have long obsessed, occupy just a tiny portion of the human genome.

Even so, many Americans, blind to the origins of racist notions, “think that there’s such things as black blood and black diseases and that black people are by nature predisposed to dancing and athletics,” Kendi said. “These are common ideas.”
Religion / Re: Evolutionary Theory: A Cause Of Racism. by onlyfacts: 10:04am On Jun 04, 2020
This thinking would thrive in the 18th and especially the 19th centuries. It would mutate, vary in perversion and persevere for 400 years right up to the present day. Starting with theories of physical and intellectual inferiority that likened blacks to animals — monkeys and apes especially — or helpless children, it would evolve to infer black cultural and then social inferiority.
