And those molecules evolved from even simpler molecules. A crab would probably not write a full sentence in sand, but there's a higher probability that he would write a single word, then there's even higher probability that he would write a single letter, and finally, there's a pretty high probability that he would write a single stroke in sand.

The whole intelligent design thing makes me think of the "library of babel", which is a computer generated library of all text that could ever exist. Ofcourse, that's amongst loads and loads of gibberish- but chance causes it to produce proper sentences and paragraphs. DNA doesn't need a writer, it just needs to exist and to change and occasionally chance upon a change that is better at surviving and reproducing than before, and most of the gibberish gets weeded out through natural selection until most of it makes sense. (Also I love the argument that the way we are designed isn't actually intelligent, but rather stupid, because we have lots of flaws in our construction. We can literally break our own ribs from sneezing to hard. That doesn't sound like intelligent design to me.)

Also, the Bible doesn’t say anything about space, time and matter... like you said: God created the heavens and the earth. Because the authors of Genesis didn’t know what the universe is... they thought that earth IS the universe, that the stars are just tiny signs in the solid firmament and that there was water on the other side of the firmament.😂 All of the authors of the Bible combined knew less about how the world works than a random 14 year old kid that lives today in the western world, so don’t try to justify your superstitious beliefs by applying your secular understanding of the world to the texts that literally say something completely different as you claim.😉

My favorite response to the argument from design is one from Matt Dillahunty, which, paraphrasing and applying to the version that Turek uses: Turek (paraphrased): When you're walking on the beach and see a message drawn in the sand, you know that the message came from a mind. Matt Dillahunty (paraphrased): which proves that the message in the sand is of DIFFERENT quality than the natural sand dunes around it. The "watchmaker" argument defeats itself. It is, according to you, immediately apparent that the message in the sand is different from the rest of the environment in its intelligent origin. But you are trying to use this as an analogy for the entire universe being designed. Why is the message in the sand unique in this environment, when it is designed, the sand dunes are designed, the ocean waves are designed, the sky is designed. The intelligently designed message should appear un-special in an environment made ENTIRELY out of intelligent design. And yet the argument claims it is special.

@@FuddlyDud Most theists properly question their answers? You must be joking. When asked what evidence would challenge his belief in God, Ken Ham answered "Nothing". How in the hell is that questioning an answer? That's more like actively shielding an answer from question. Ham is far from alone. Further, the point of most of these sorts of videos is that theists *do not* actually have good answers. Theists have answers which sound superficially appealing, but cannot withstand any degree of serious scrutiny. In the end, almost all theistic answers to the great questions all boil down to faith. As to the 'evidence behind Jesus', aside from the Bible and the fact that a religion evolved around it's stories, there is none. That's worth repeating. There is NONE. I know that's a bitter pill for most Christians to swallow, but it is the truth. I'm sure we agree that religions, even very prominent religions, can evolve out of false notions. That is, in fact, the consensus opinion of Christians concerning all other religions. With that in mind, how can any purely documentary evidence serve as a foundation for such a great claim? The simple answer is; To a rational mind, it cannot. While scientific answers are incomplete, at least they can show solid evidence for why what is believed is believed in repeatable tests. And, there is no cognitive dissonance in science. Christianity can't even pass the basic test of falling in line with demonstrable reality without invoking miracle after miracle. That being said, nobody would care what Christians believe were they not actively trying, with a good measure of success, to force the rest of us to live by their beliefs. But, they are. Finally, when Christians start acting like those who murder and claim God told them to do it should actually be taken seriously instead of treated as mentally ill or liars, then I'll take your claimed 'hedge' seriously. Until then...

None? Seriously? Roman and Jewish historians, known for their accuracy in reporting, report him as a real person. Mind explaining how both were so easily hoodwinked? And, if the claim is that he never existed, then could you explain what the point of the apostles' ministry? All it did was get them killed in horrific ways and get them rejected by both Jewish and Roman groups. Why lie about something that only makes your life worse in every feasible way and provides no benefit to anybody because it is all one big lie in the first place?

Muslims:Are you challenging us?

The answer to the question 'what natural law can produce messages?' Reduces to a one word answer... "Apophenia'.

I love the examples you gave of unintended messages being originally interpreted as intentional. I feel like those are such big/scientific examples, a lot of theists would still try to explain them away with religion. Maybe simple examples would help to. One time my dad and I discussed this type of topic and I mentioned that when hunters track their prey, they look for signs such as broken branches, crushed grass, etc. all of these are messages interpreted by the hunter as to where the prey has been, but obviously the prey did not leave these signs with the intent of telling the hunter where they are or have been. Hence, a message can be interpreted without being intentional. Does an example like this also hold up against the question he asked or should we use more scientific ones like you used. Just curious in case this topic comes up again personally :)

Earbuds and ears seem to be designed to fit each other. Therefore, earbuds/ears were designed by God". This sounds pretty ridiculous, but it isn't the same argument as the watchmaker argument. The watchmaker argument effectively says "Anything that is designed needs a designer. The Universe appears designed. Therefore, the universe needs a designer." If you're going to refute the watchmaker argument, use evidence that shows that things can look designed without actually being designed. Don't use a false analogy.

As a physics student I think I can explain few things. If you want few more examples you can keep reading. First of all even if something seem to be perfect without a purpose it does any mean that it was made by god. It just mean that we don’t understand some things. The thing that seem perfect can and probably will have flaws when seen differently - we can create a “perfect” metal ball but when we will see it under a microscope we will see that it has scratches. Also - seeing something as bad or good is subjective so it actually doesn’t need to be a flaw. There isn’t something like a good thing and a bad one in nature.. but forget that. Let’s see why his arguments doesn’t work at all 1. You could change parameters/constants/coefficients and it wouldn’t mean the universe would vanish - it just would be different; sure in some cases nothing would be created but that doesn’t mean that universe doesn’t exist. In the future probably everything will decay - we think that protons won’t live forever; even black holes will evaporate due to Hawkings radiation. It doesn’t mean that the universe won’t exist anymore. It will be empty, sure, maybe with some particles but without bigger structures or life. Besides that some constants aren’t even constant (for example the expansion rate of the universe, it will increase probably forever) - who knows if other parameters won’t change? Maybe it is changing at such slow rate that we can’t measure it. And we may never know… you have to have a pretty big ego to think that someone created the universe just for you to live in, sorry but that’s my opinion. We got lucky. 2. The genome isn’t perfect. To be fair it’s full of trash. In this year I’m attending some biophysics lectures and my professor was telling us a lot about that. Im not as experienced as bio student so won’t tell you much unfortunately but this is really interesting so I remembered a lot from the lectures. The so called “junk-DNA” doesn’t have instructions for coding proteins which are basics of life. Some of it actually is used but probably not all of it. To be fair we could be wrong. The second thing is that we are still evolving, don’t forget that, so during copying our dna could be slightly changed. It may be the change that will be useful but doesn’t have to be. Why god would make us imperfect? Couldn’t he create us already in the best form? 3. I laughed when he told that we have so much information in our cells. It would fit on a CD disk. It really isn’t much information for today’s technology 4. There were cases in which evolution went horribly wrong. Why would that be a thing if god created it 5. I would rather say that algorithms are like dna etc. not the other way 6. And his main point… just as you said - the word “message” need an interpreter. They often seem to misunderstand that some things are created by us. Just like we decide in which group something “will be” - animals and plants for example. It is created by us. Not by anything higher - you won’t tell me that every scientist hear voice whenever discovering anything new. It was created so it’s easier to describe the world. We could do it differently and it wouldn’t change anything. When I create a message I do it to inform someone about something. Natural law that create messages is… evolution. For some reason animals communicate. They wouldn’t survive if they didn’t do that. And it doesn’t have to be a word - it could be colour of animal (having colours like a bee so nothing will attack you), shape (trying to look bigger to scare us), eyes, ears, tail movement (dogs)… why does it need a higher mind. Without this many animals would simply die. The same goes for trees that can communicate through their roots - they can inform other trees about some diseases etc., they tell them how to survive. Btw electromagnetic signals can be a message. Gravitational waves can be a message. It can tell us what happened in deep space but did the black hole want to tell us something? I don’t think so. It is all part of natural processes and we learned how to interpret that. So telling that this forces don’t create messages is bullshit. We just need to recognise it as one. We also have quantum cryptography so don’t tell me that the quantum mechanics is a sign of god. It is so frustrating seeing someone who is trying to prove something with the knowledge they don’t have. Your video was great.

This can be applied to both creationism and science. It’s very possible that sometime in the far future we discover something that completely changes our understanding of science. The difference lies in how through hypothesis and rigorous testing by many many scientists throughout history, we can come up with a pretty good idea of what probably happens with many things in science, and the reality is that intelligent design is simply not scientifically probable.

Thinking of the idea of messages needing a mind - I feel like there are two issues. One is the interpretation of cause and effect as 'messages'. And the other is that in some respects, there are only 'messages' because we assign meaning to things. We organize things into information, translate it into something that has shared cultural meaning, and then communicate that. Evolution has created messages as a survival mechanism.

What's really frustrating is that science doesn't actually claim that the "big bang" was the start of existence but it's the start of the universe as we know it. The idea of the universe having a "beginning" comes from religion and is not a testable claim made by science. Talking about the big bang as the start of the universe is something science communicators do, people that try and talk to the general public in a way that most people will understand.

not faith, faith is believe in something you cant prove, we dont need faith to understand our capality to analize things and research to answer questions. Faith is needed when you cant prove something cause there is no evidence, and evidence that can be found leads to understand that its all stories made by less knowledged people

And more importantly, lacking an explanation for any given phenomenon in no way invalidates explanations for other phenomena. Nor does it provide validity to someone else's explanation- having an answer is not inherently more correct than not having one. In fact, I would say acknowledgement of ignorance is a more correct answer than a baseless guess. Because ignorance isn't a claim- it can't be wrong!

DNA is not actually a "code". It is a specifically shaped molecule with specific properties that rise from that. Considering it a "code" is just a human convention to make it easier to understand. One could equally say that water molecules have a "code" that causes them to form snowflakes under certain conditions. DNA does not have letters or numbers, it has the chemicals adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine to which we assign letters ACGT for the sake of convenience and ease of understanding.

You think you can take molecules, throw them into a pile and expect them to come together and create instructions? No. And about the snowflakes, in an atheist perspective you could say they arose from natural processes, but from my theist perspective I see design in the force of nature that causes the incredibly complex design in those snowflakes.

There is no need for a designer, so introducing one is an unecessarily element in the solution, and it does nothing but question where and how the "designer" arose. And the designer is, by necesity more complex yet, so where did it come from? Yur "solution" solves nothing.

I've been an agnostic atheist all my life. I remember my first semester of genetic classes, when I was learning all the ways how DNA self replicate and error correct itself I was baffled by it. I thought that even by chance those mechanism were too complex to be evolved by natural selection no matter how long it took. It was one of the few moments my atheism was shaken... Until the next class I started to learn about genetic auto-immune diseases. A couple of different base pairs signals and most of the terrible diseases such as sclerosis could have been completed eradicated by our genome. Took BILLIONs of years, and that random mutation that eradicated sclerosis never came... Precisely because it is uncommon enough to no signifcantly naturally be written off of our code. This sort of DUMB flaw in our DNA is the ultimate proof, it is not inteligently designed.

In the following text i debunk the premise of this video, please read with attention The counter arguments presented by this individual are intellectually flawed, not due to an inherent lack of intelligence ,but rather due to a misguided confidence that the presenter holds in relation to his ability to present these so called "counter arguments" Firstly, he is extremely articulate, employing a wide array of such selectively chosen words of high complexity whose meaning will simply go over the mind of the layman, this very high levels of articulacy coupled with the appearance of overconfidence in his speech provides the listener with the auditory and visual illusion of successfully "debunking" the arguments of the thiestic fellow, As i do not have a deep understanding of the puddle argument i do not feel qualified to comment on it, but there are definitely fundamental logical mistakes and fallacies in which the presenter makes that i can point out At 6:10 : the presenter "debunks" the argument for the extremely large human genome as proof for intelligent design as it was being compared to an extremely intricate sequence of binary code , by simply stating that it is not proof for intelligent design, notice how he does not actually provide any counter arguments for that point, he relies on his high level of articulacy and overconfidence to convince the viewer that he has successfully debunked it when all he has actually done is say, "it is not proof for intelligent design" and "if you cant show me the designer making it then it isn't justifable to to attribute it to intelligent design" why isn't it justifable????? That's the question he should answer, its like seeing an extremely complex piece of technology lying in an uninhabited barren wasteland, with no history or record of who may have invented it , and saying , well if you cant show me the designer who created it as he was creating it i will not believe there was active intelligence behind , and i will simply state that it came about by entropy/ randomness, because i could not witniss the creator create it, that is ABSOLUTELY ABSURD! furthermore Beginning at 8:45, he uses the example of the message on the beach, which is obviously a specific , conditional, one time example, that the thiestic fellow used to propogate his argument for intelligent design, by creating an analogy between intelligent design and messages, and he bases the entire argument around this singular example, and this example mind you, does not convey the argument that was trying to be made, it is simply analogy, yet the presenter cites several examples in which "messages" from nature were misinterpreted as actual messages, this is completely missing the point, what does misinterpretation of an apparent messages in the natural world, have anything to do, with an intricate mechanism, that lead to the creation of a complex arrangment letters that bear meaning, which is pretty much synonymous to the intelligent design behind this universe? This is a straw man argument, in which the presenter completely deforms and bends the original argument in a way that suits him , making it easier to "debunk" the argument, using competely unrelated examples that seem intertwined with the origjnal argument but are actually not, as it has undergone implicit distortion which may have gone under the radar of most listeners Thirdly In the last portion of the video in which the presenter on a whole scientific rant mentioned 2 primary points 1) how DNA mutates and species undergo genetic changes from generation to generation (which is microevolution) 2) how DNA is capable of intrinsically add genes wihout any extrinsic stimulus/factors These are well estabilished scientific facts with their own merit, but that also miserably fails as a rebuttal to the orignal argument made by Frank turek, which is how can one or a combination of natural forces can lead to an extremely large and complex genetic sequence such as that of the human genome? -) what the presenter was able to explained is how DNA can change over time and absolutely not how it is created from inaminate inorganic matter, the DNA or the genome has to be there in the first place before it can undergo these changes, you failed to answer how The extremely complex genome/DNA can even arise in the first place , from natural forces, acting on inanimate matter This is another fundamental mistake that you made just like many others in this video Forgive me for repeating my words, but i have to make a point that sits with the reader We're not all dumb bigots who are incapable of objective analysis, i hope that who ever might come accross this has the patience to read the whole thing and have a change of heart in regards to these so called *skeptics* that have their way with weak minded individuals through the power of words along

@@KlaustheViking You miss the point of that argument completely.. the default answer shouldn't be a cope out like "God did it". That's the laziest and most dishonest argument in Christianity. It was my grandmother's go to along with "Because God said so". It was always just a dismissal of the debate as a whole.. that was the point she was actually saying "I can't actually defend my position so I don't want to talk about it any more". I watched her use this on my uncle when he tried to explain to her why he had to leave the church and get a divorce from his abusive, cheating wife. He was one of the four children who the church destroyed by selling the "traditional values" according to God. One of the reasons I am so confident in the non-existence of God is the authority problem of Christianity. We are expected to take the words of human beings, who took it on the word of other human beings.. for over 2000 years. By the time I was 8 I had figured out human beings lie through their teeth when it offers them control, things they want, and the ability to excuse their gross actions.

@@azarinevil Going off the last part of what you said lies in the problem: you are going off the authority of other humans versus what the Bible (God's word) commanded. The Bible has been translated many times, but the message always remained the same. Im sorry you had a bad experience which led to you leaving the church. I have heard many tsstimonies of people doing the same exact thing for very similar reasons. Back to the main issue... The cop out of "Because God said so" or however it is put depending on the arguement can be valid in certain circumstances. When we are arguing about the morality of God, God is the arbiter of all that is good and is perfectly just according to Christian belief. Being that God is our creator and instilled morality into our hearts, there is no other moral truth... only God's standard. Of course, I am arguing on my point of view. In that sense, saying "Because God says so" is fine with that sort of arguement because God has authority above all. I understand in other arguements, when using that so called "cop out", it does not hold water. There is so much that we, even as devout Christians, do not know or understand about God's nature, so we can only go off with what we are given. Considering we are finite in our abilities as humans to comprehend God as a supreme being, I would imagine it bring practically impossible to understand why God did this or said that at certain times in the Bible. So with that all being said, saying that "cop out" is not just a completely dishonest way of dismissal of an arguement. It all depends on the arguement at hand.

We suspect that consciousness is related to the power of our brains. Scientists have done work with other animals, like apes. Some can understand the gravity of death. So, there seems to be a correlation between the power of our brains and consciousness. "If we’re just molecules and nothing more than nobodies life cares including yours."

Actually, Mark H has trouble trying to comprehend anything from the Bible while hundreds of millions of other people have no trouble comprehending at all . 7: The impossibility of spontaneous generation and it's undocumented, non evidenced, non trail. 6: The severe lack of transitional species and their remnant fossils (That's why Mark didn''t want to address what Jon Free Man posted a few months ago). 5: Mark H thought cancer was contagious. 🙄🤦 4: Slavery in Bible times, what it meant and how Mark conveniently sidesteps the get out, escape clause scriptures for those who find themselves getting overly oppressed. 3: Mark's flat Earth view being exposed by anyone with the know how information behind Isaiah 40:22 and a round Earth. 2:) The Peppered Moth and how it doesn't support 'evolution' as taught even though 'evolutionists' need it to work but doesn't. 1: Mark's own goal response to 'Me and my world' a month or so ago when he said, *"Apologies. I tend rush my responses and didn't read yours properly "* Absolute comedy GOLD and the statement of the century that confirms what I have already know about Mark H for the last three and a half years. 😂😂👍 *Goodbye Mark you clown of clowns.*

I understand that the discourse here is TAG/fine tuning Vs Puddle... However... I always find the assertion that 'if you change one constant, then life would not exist' itself a dishonest claim... For one thing: If all the constants change together there are an infinite number of possible configurations that produce life bearing universes. And for another thing there is also quite a lot of wriggle room even if only one constant is tweaked at a time.

“Infinite number of possible configurations.” Is that true? If so, that’s very interesting.

@@theinvestingpalace4710 The fine tuning argument rests on the notion of changing one constant alone... and ignores changing two or more or all the constants at the same time to maintain equilibrium between them. I encountered the critique through the physicist Victor Stenger who used a cake analogy. (Pointing out that it was a simplistic take) Arbitrarily doubling... only the flour, or sugar or adding an extra egg may end in a mess, but doubling all the ingredients results in a good cake. So a universe in which gravity was stronger, the mass of fundamental particles smaller the electromagnetic force weaker: allows a universe that appears a little different to our own, but is still capable of producing long-lived stars and heavy chemical elements, aka the requirements for complex life. And that's all before we look at the actual variances suggested in the 'fine tuning' argument. e.g .the allowable variance in the strong nuclear force is about 5% whch s is actually quite a bit... Not to mention that trhe 'fine tuning'; notion includes the cosmological constant (Lambda Λ)which predicts that the Higgs boson would be somewhat smaller than it turned out to be... implying that some axiom or maths is out of kilter somewhere..

Why would a good designer make a universe where if it changes in the slightest amount, it will fail? Anyone who thinks our universe was designed for human life is crazy. We can't live in the vast majority of the universe. Anyone who puts us on a planet where there are hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, and tsunamis is either a very poor designer and/or else cruel. Any designer who made our bodies so susceptible to horrific diseases and injuries is incompetent and cruel.

What? You can’t adapt TO survive in an environment. In a micro evolutionary sense yes, in that we can adapt to BETTER survive but adapting TO survive is impossible. You can’t drop two humans on mars day after day for thousands of years and them magically learn to breathe. One shot. One suffocation. Micro evolutionary theory is plausible, things like skin tone change to accommodate more sun exposure. But this is the gap in macro evolution. You can’t adapt to survive. There has to be an originating success.
