Is the evolutionary doctrine a racist doctrine?

[YoursTrue]

Don't scientists, or at least physicians, use scientific methods to enable infertile couples or women who suffer from recurrent miscarriages to have healthy children? Do you approve or disapprove of such interference with nature?

Who are 'they' in this context?

Whoever didn't want it. And took up arms. Have a good one...

 

[YoursTrue]

I agree. It is a method to control people by people using psychological torture in my opinion.

Sounds like some here are shunning others. Hmm?

Tell you what? You need to ask those here who profess to believe in God and the theory of evolution. Not me.

I think I asked, & didn't see a response....
What is "the evolutionary doctrine"?

I don't believe I used that phrase. Maybe I did. But I can't remember, sorry. Generally speaking I use the phrase theory of evolution.

I wasn't clear about that being the OP's phrase.
But since I don't recall his answering, I thought
you might know what he meant.
Sorry about the confusion.

Shunning is done by a group of people to an individual. Avoiding someone who annoys you is something completely different.

On a positive note it's good to see you agree that shunning is a bad thing.

How do you feel about murder and warfare? Are they products of evolution and racist concepts? Also, are those bad things or good things?

Not necessarily.

I believe I answered that when you asked a similar question a few posts back.

 

[YoursTrue]

Seems that one only applies if your neighbour believes what you believe.

OK, so love your neighbor as yourself does not apply to you apparently. Thanks for that. Try again.

I guess when a person dies by murder in warfare that's ok by you. Maybe evolution produced that? That way you can love your close neighbor, as some say a book of myths say. But perhaps some might not want to say anything because then --they would reveal their thinking. Although it's apparent. Anyway. Since I believe in God, I believe also He will take care of each and every one of us. Thanks, and bye for now.

Love your neighbor does apply to you? That's a question, by the way. Yes, try again.

So by the way, when nations go to war, would you say that's part of the theory of evolution?

Try what again was also a question

No

I'm not sure about what you think or what the majority of scientists think, but I believe there are distinctions of qualitative differences between Neandertals and "homo sapiens." Such as the fact that printing presses were not invented until fairly recently, given the 40,000 year timetable. Now I realize that someone may say, "oh, there was no need for printing presses back then." And at this point, I would have to laugh.

There's a general rule of thumb in anthropology: The more tools you have, the more tools you can have, and tool-cultures tend to grow in a geometric progression.

Evolution involved? (of the biologic kind, not "cultural.") So far as I know, chimpanzees haven't invented printing presses. Even though they have brains and fingers. I doubt fish can use printing presses, but maybe they just figure they don't need any and they're happy the way they are...probably no need to evolve.

An adult chimp generally has the cognitive ability of a two-year old human child and, yes, they make tools.

I think this is a bizarre question.
