    How exciting! Rev. Johnnie Moore leads delegation of American Evangelicals to Saudi Arabia for ecumenical dialogue with Muslim clerics:

    Muslim World League Hosts Delegation of U.S. Evangelical Leaders, Reaffirming Need to Reject All Forms of Extremism and Hatred

    "JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia, Sept. 11, 2019 ... The Muslim World League and representatives of the U.S. evangelical community held a warm and constructive meeting in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on Monday. The two groups underscored their shared values and pledged to strengthen cooperation."

    "Together we will build bridges of cooperation between peoples of all faiths and cultures....Through the power of education, we will promote religious harmony as well as cultural, ethnic, and national integration. We affirm our commitment to the common values upon which our communities are built. As the nucleus of society family serves an important role in nurturing future generations with the values of moderation, love, and respect for others, regardless of their background."

    "The Medina Charter adopted by the Prophet Muhammad more than 1400 years ago focused on the rights of minorities. Today, the Charter of Makkah extends those values by emphasizing the importance of empowering women, a goal shared by both of our communities....We believe that by respecting these common values, we can bring people together....we reject all attempts to sow division between our two communities."

    What a compacter full of garbage. Muhammad married Aisha when she was six and consummated the marriage when she was nine and he was fifty-four. Five plus four equals nine so it is an Islamic miracle. Islam practices slavery, FMG, and allows for polygamy. Johnnie Moore should have had Islam make a deal with Mormonism and he could have held the ceremony at the Marriott in Salt Lake City for a lot less money.

    Reproof from actress Crystal Bernard (Happy Days, It's a Living, Wings) sung in a duet with her sister at Thomas Road Baptist Church in the 1970s:

    ♫ These folks, they always talk about
    ♫ the 'Ecumenical Movement' :
    ♫ say we all travel different roads
    ♫ but they all lead to Heaven.

    ♫ But God’s words plainly say :
    ♫ Jesus is the only way! ...

    With honor killings and pedophilia being sanctioned by the Quran, why would anyone even include these barbarians in a "family values" summit? Just doesn't compute.

    Jerry Falwell: "So right now by the miracle of recording, Robyn and Crystal Bernard singing a song that probably you haven't heard before. But I'm sure after you hear it this time, you'll want to be hearing it again. I don't know of any better way than just to call it what it is. It's the Monkey Song and it's about the 'monkey theory' of evolution that refutes the Bible account of creation. Robyn and Crystal Bernard..."

    I see that you are new here. Welcome in!

    Evolution has been proven scientificaly impossible. There are 20 amino acids used to build DNA and they are fit together in precise ladders of maybe 250 total on average. So multiply 20 x 20 x 20 x 20....--until you have multiplied 20 by itself 250 times. Then calculate all the different strands of DNA and multiply that by 20 to the 250th power. So any honest person would say that evolution is scientifically impossible as proven by the mathematical odds.

    A few links about the book and its author in your signature: The scientific impossibility of evolution: Giving Up Darwin.

    *****

    Giving Up Darwin

    David Gelernter - Wikipedia

    [Drawing Life] | C-SPAN.org

    Ted Kaczynski - Wikipedia

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...yed-for-trumps-science-adviser/?noredirect=on

    The Claremont Review of Books

    Claremont Institute | Recovering the American Idea

    *****

    According to an article about him on Wikipedia, the author David Gelernter is a Jewish scholar, artist, and anti-intellectual associate professor of computer science at Yale University. In 1997 he received a package from the Unabomber Ted Kaczynski (C-Span). In 2017 he was considered for the position of science advisor for President Trump according to the Washington Post January 18.

    On the Wikipedia article about himself, David Gelernter lists his fields as computer science, parallel computing, Judaism, literature, and visual arts. He does not list genetic biology as one of his fields of expertise.

    If you read the article, you will see that Gelernter, a secular Jew and one of the leading computer experts in the world, also linked David Berlinski, who is both a genetic biologists and a mathematician and an agnostic Jew. Also, Stephen Meyer, an ID leading researcher who is a biologist I think. My favorite is Berlinski but Gelernter is world famous.

    I don't think that there is any scientific dispute that DNA is made up of 20 amino acids and comes in strands of 250 arranged just so, which results in the high school math problem of 20 to the 250th power. So the Mathematicians are saying that evolution is scientifically and mathematically impossible. The article was published in May and so far I have not read that any evolutionists has denied or refuted it.
