Dr George Wald, in his Nobel acceptance speech said that there are only two possibilities for the origins of life, spontaneous generation or divinecreation. Spontaneous generation was disproved 100 years ago. But that leaves us with only one alternative, and as we cannot accept that on philosophical grounds, we continue to choose to believe the impossible that life arose by chance from nothing.

As an atheist, it's interesting to me to watch these videos, because while they do have some truth in them, they always leave out a bit of information that's crucial to understanding why they're wrong. In this video, the missing bit is genetic mutations. This is gonna be a long comment, so the TLDR is that genetic mutation is extremely common and if it happens in exactly the right way (which is very likely given the timespans evolution deals with) you can get a 'new gene,' something that this video stressed as being impossible. Genetic mutation is actually extremely common in the form of point mutations, where one DNA pair (DNA is composed of four nucleotides - cytosine, adenine, guanine, and thymine. Adenine will bond with thymine, and cytosine will bond with guanine, and when you stack enough pairs on top of each other, you get the double helix of DNA, where one strand will be made up of all of the respective nucleotides of the other strand - for example, one strand could be ATCG, and the other strand opposite would be TAGC) is somehow messed up in the copying process. It might have been removed, replaced with another pair, or there might even be an extra imposter pair. This is important because of how DNA functions. DNA is a set of instructions to make proteins, and the proteins are made up of amino acids. There are 21 amino acids, but only 4 nucleotides, so when the instructions are being read in the ribosome, it reads 3 nucleotides at a time, and each combination of 3 nucleotides is going to correspond to an amino acid. There are 4 possible nucleotides though, and if you put them in a combination of 3, that's 4^3 possibilities, which is 64 - more than the 21 nucleotides. This means that there are repetitions - AAA and AAG both make lysine, for example. This is a sort of padding, so that some point mutations, such as replacing an A with a G, or vice versa, have no effect on protein production. However, AAC is asparagine, and this would mean that that one section of DNA is gonna make a different protein. What about addition or deletion of pairs, however? Well, that's gonna be even worse - that would shift the ENTIRE DNA strand over one, so if you had a strand that before was AACAAA, which would make asparagine + lysine, and you added a G at the start, you'd be making glutamate + glutamine, and whatever pairs came afterwards would also be shifted by that extra adenine at the end. Sorry if this was all way too complicated, but the idea is that if you have these genetic mutations happening, and you give enough time for them to keep happening, you could in fact get a reptile with wings. This is also pretty obvious just by looking at the fact that some animals that are parts of the same group have genes that the other animals don't, but at the same time they share a ton of other genes which make it obvious that they're part of the same group - flying fish and sharks, for example, couldn't be more different, but they're both fish.

And yet, just last year, my autoplay put on an AIG video while I was cooking. And the EXACT arguments I made, presented exactly the same way, using the same exact facts, is what I heard coming from the video. It was then that I realized, creationists ARE *actual* scientists.

Also, consider that Darwin lived during the Victorian era, a time of ambivalence about imperialism. We in the United States were not at all ambivalent about imperialism: we staged a revolutionary war. But the upper class of British society were to some degree had mixed feelings about the subject, some notion of oppression as well as opportunities afforded their colonies. Darwins ideas about upper races, and lower races had its appeal: survival of the fittest sounded good, given that you assumed yourself to be the fittest. Darwin said this in a letter to one of his colleagues: "I could show fight on natural selection having done and doing more for the progress of civilization than you seem inclined to admit.... The more civilized so-called Caucasian races have beaten the Turkish hollow in the struggle for existence. Looking to the world at no very distant date, what an endless number of the lower races will have been eliminated by the higher civilized races throughout the world." Life and Letters, I, letter to W. Graham, July 3, 1881, p. 316; cited in Darwin and the Darwinian Revolution, by Gertrude Himmelfarb (London, Chatto and Windus, 1959), p. 343. That evolution is racist isn’t hidden; it’s in the title of Darwins book on evolution: “On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or _the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life”_ Some people insist the word “race“ is taken out of context, but, in light of Darwins correspondence with others, there is no doubt concerning the meaning of the word. Evolution is racist. It occurs to me. This is part of the reason the “elite class” in the United States and elsewhere, believe in evolution.

According to Websters, science merely means knowledge .But that is mans knowledge which cannot hold a candle to the knowledge of an Almighty God . For example: Take two scientists that are studying the universe. One believes in an Almighty God and the other does not. The one that does Believes in God will put his findings under the lens of the Bible. Where as the non believing scientists will develope a theory that he just cannot explain. He then may do 1 of 2 things. He will either become so frustrated that he cannot explain or prove his theories and spend the rest of his life time trying. 2 he will surrender and say. An Almighty Creator is the only thing that I can prove . So it is very important what mindset is applied before one test their ideas. Now I don't know about you.

The mindset that one applies to their study is crucial. For example: Darwin did not conduct his studies as a means to learn the origins of man. I believe that He conducted his studies as a means to refute the Bible. This became a dangerous a concept in which the most evilist one uses to deceive people and tear them away from God which is his chief goal. I further believe that an evolutionist begins his study from the bottom up meaning with his finite knowledge of ideas he has at that time. Where as a creationist begins his study from the top down meaning with the knowledge he has of an Almighty God at the time he began his study . I realize this may be a difficult concept to grasp . Now as a Christian I have studied God in my church Bible study and I have found that our human ways are totally opposite of Gods. For example: Some people believe that Archeology proves the Bible, where as I believe the Bible proves Archeology ! So you see it is all about the mindset. And as humans I believe our minds are finite where as Gods is infinite. We have impossibilities where as God does not. I also believe that Jesus IS God in the flesh and He is inviting you to spend eternity with Him. For the alternative to that is condemnation in the pit of hell for all eternity. And as Catholics are taught to believe in a Purgatory that doesn't exist. So I I ask you. Where you like to spend eternity?

The deck of cards analogy is very helpful because it illustrates a key difference between both camps. AiG proposes that cards from the same deck are shared and mixed together, while evolutionists claim that each generation (or, rather, each member of that generation) is effectively copying - and sometimes mis-copying - genetic information from the previous generation’s deck. This allows for the possibility of mutations, and also doesn’t imply that the parents’ genetic information is used us after they have two children. This ‘copying’ rather than ‘reusing’ theory also explains how the Tarot deck of cards (with different symbols) emerged through the copying of traditional playing cards.

While nothing can be substantiated or proven upon the first, it can and has been regarding the earth. If the earth was without form and void, it would have to have been previously with form and sound, but then deteriorated. There would also have been no waters, and certainly no deep.

My brain is drawing two possible outcomes for that statement, that "God" created one of every species and everything spawned from there or "God" created one true species and everything spawned from there over time. For the first one, that makes no sense as the "All mutations are bad" claim from the video would mean that everything that exists today would be in such a horribly degraded state that they would cease to function, that and it would be impossible for that one ancestor to procreate without going the bacteria route and just cloning itself.

I find it curious that he mentioned mutations and forgot to mention positive or even neutral gene mutations. Not every mutation results in something bad happening, if that were the case, then there would theoretically be a "perfect" genome somewhere out there, zero flaws, but that would have been at the beginning of gene based life. Take for instance, the ability for humans to drink milk from non humans, its not a normal trait, it was a random mutation that came along. Doesn't seem very negative to me, it seemed to actually help as it expanded the sources of calcium and other minerals humanity can gain access to. Gotta love people claiming to have questions that drive 'X Community' crazy, then proceeding to ignore the information that doesn't prove their point. It's not the deck of cards that dictates the traits of an organism, its the combinations in which they are played in the game we call life. Take a look at a chart that has the combinations of amino acids in DNA, some of them give different results, some have multiple trios that give the same result. This results in some mutations being positive, some neutral with no effect and some negative. Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk

I was thinking the same thing. Not as detailed as you, but, he ignores Downs Syndrome. Which is the result of an extra added chromosome to someones DNA. While not good, it shows that "Cards" can be added to a deck. And he doesn't deal with the fact that, in a given population, an animal or plant from 1 species can successfully mate with an animal or plant from another species. Thus adding cards to a given deck. And mutations happen. So, while on it's face [pun intended] the card analogy is compelling, I don't think it works in the natural world. Clearly, it doesn't because I think dog DNA from Wolves alone, doesn't have all the variations we see today. Unless wolves are like DNA master class with every possible combination built within. There's no way a wolf pack would ever naturally have a Pug, Lab, or Great Dane looking dog in the mix. Those must have been natural mutations, changes to what was to create what is. Now, was God part of that? Or did God create the system that allowed for that. I think that's a better question.

And, of course, there are things like transposons, pseudogenes, and endogenous retroviruses, all of which give very strong evidence for common ancestry, and which contradicts the "baraminology" concept of some kind of "mutations limit" between "kinds" ("baramin" - which literally has no scientific definition at all; indeed, creationists can't even agree among themselves what these supposed "baramin" are - except of course they all agree that humans constitute a "baramin" because of Adam and Eve in the creation myth in Genesis).

10:54 it ends up making more because of genetic mutations in organisms. Genetic mutations create random changes in an organism that are are either beneficial or harmful to the organism. Mutations are then selected through natural selection. Speciation is the result of two organisms can no longer produce fertile offspring. This could be the result of many factors including changes in behavioural patterns or geographic changes. The phrase “everyone is unique” is an excellent example of mutations. I have longer arms than most people, some people are born with an extra chromosome, some people are extremely tall. The list goes on. If we selected for these mutations, let’s say we let only people with certain mutations exist like for example, some people can see a broader spectrum of light. Over many years this mutation will become a dominant gene until another useful mutation is selected in which the cycle will continue. Really enjoyed the video and have learned more about other perspectives and how even if I disagree, can still learn something.

Around the 12:20 mark he sort of nails what apologists try to hide about evolution, which is "mutations" occur, but the mutations occur on something that already exists leading to a growing branch of the evolutionary tree. This is why big cats are related to small cats or wolves related to dogs, or humans related to other primates. There is no wild production of something completely unrelated to the original gene pool. You don't go from a fish to a human on the next mutation and what determines a new species is when the mutations soon make it impossible to have offspring with the original species who had the mutation. While this mutation often requires thousands of years to directly observe it, there are things that do create new species that are observable in our lifetime. Apologists like to call this micro evolution and of course agree that this exists but claim that because we cannot observe macro evolution, it does not exist. Sort of ironic isn't it considering we cannot physically observe God yet that exists. There is no micro and macro evolution, there is just evolution. While evolution does dispel the Adam and Eve story, it doesn't rule out the existence of Deities, only that evolution could have been their solution to the formation of life in our universe. There are Christians who accept the true science of evolution while still accepting the Christian religion.

Jesus believed in Adam and Eve. Matthew 19. And Jesus was called the Son of Man (Ben-Adam). Sin entered mankind thru Adam, literally. Romans 5:12-21. Jesus is the new Adam, literally redeeming the human race, being the perfect sacrifice and the firstfruits of the resurrection. 1 Corinthians 15:16-23 So Jesus believed in the account of Genesis literally, Jesus literally believed that He would die for the sins of many. And Jesus atoning for the sins of mankind is only possible in there was a literal Eden and literal Fall. No Fall, then why is Jesus necessary? No forbidden fruit, then why is creation corrupted? And if creation is corrupted by means other than man’s sin, then why does God hold us accountable for our evolutionary nature (horniness, violence, racism- we’re just animals after all)? So I believe in the Bible and do not believe that mankind evolved from any other creatures. I believe that Adam literally sinned and thus brought death, and Jesus literally defeated death and thus brings life. That is what the gospel is all about. If its not true, then Jesus Himself was a liar, and why would you follow a man who either lied, or was delusionally false about human history and God’s existence/plan. Jesus also literally believed in Noah (Matthew 24) and Jonah (Luke 11). So Jesus believes that the entirety of the Bible is true, given how He references the vast majority of the Torah and Prophets.

I disagree slightly. New DNA can be created. That is called cancer, and it is mostly a negative thing. There is a slight change cancer can create something that is beneficial. The chancers that something like that survives and breeds is close to zero. The clincher for me is that there is no way that these accidental errors could have created symmetrical creatures. Most live is symmetrical.

A great Maxim is this “DO NOT learn all you know about evolution from Creationists!” However, as the video demonstrates, you CAN learn something about evolution from Creationists but there’s a catch! If you only listen to Creationists, how can you separate: The correct from the incorrect, The wheat from the chaff, and The truth from the lies and fill in the missing perceptions? It's not easy unless you can see some light. This might help. 1) Note that no mention is made of the possibility that "Beneficial Mutations" can sometimes if rarely, occur and be Naturally Selected. That adds NEW information to the gene pool. 2) Note that no mention is made of "Gene Duplication". This is a significant mechanism via which beneficial mutations can be retained without loss of the original function. That's ADDITION not SUBTRACTION. 3) Remember that the scientific model of reality includes plenty of evidence that the Earth is some 5,000,000,000 years old and not 6,000. No surprise therefore that some very slow evolutionary mechanisms have not been observed in the last 1000 years. 4) Note that whales have vestigial hind legs indicating evolution from land animals. 5) Remember that vaccination works via the natural selection of random mutations to DNA. Consequently, a vaccinated Creationist who denies the possibility of beneficial mutations is a walking contradiction. 6) Remember that the analysis of tell-tale genetic markers in DNA has led to the conclusion that Chimps are our closest relatives and our common ancestor species lived some 6,000,000 years ago. 7) Creationist commentators know all this.

Since “the bone is curved, not straight, typical of apes like chimps,” New Scientist quoted the lead author Roberto Macchiarelli as saying, “There are a lot of indicators which deeply discourage bipedal gait.” Madelaine Böhme at the University of Tübingen in Germany said: “I saw the pictures 10 or 12 years ago, and it was clear to me that itʼs more similar to a chimp than to any other hominin.” Phys.org put the implications bluntly: Sahelanthropus “was not a hominin, and thus was not the earliest known human ancestor.” This evidence forced the researchers to suggest that if Sahelanthropus were a human ancestor then that would mean bipedality is no longer a necessary qualification for status as a hominid - an unorthodox view that would cause great complications for the primate tree. As the recent article in the Journal of Human Evolution concluded: Based on our analyses, the TM 266 partial femur lacks any feature consistent with regular bouts of terrestrial bipedal travel; instead, its gross morphology suggests a derived Pan-like bauplan. Thus, if there is compelling evidence that S. tchadensis is a stem hominin, then bipedalism can no longer be seen as a requirement for inclusion in the hominin clade. Did Rivals Stonewall Publication? New Scientist told one last part of this story that is potentially disturbing, most especially for those who think that the scientific community is always objective. First, New Scientist commented on the circumstances under which it took nearly 20 years for the femur - which apparently contradicts Brunet’s initial view that Sahalenthropus was a bipedal human ancestor - to be described: The researchers found a femur, or thigh bone, along with two ulnas, or forearm bones, that would help clarify the matter, but they published nothing about them for almost two decades, prompting criticism from colleagues. Brunet didnʼt respond to a request for comment from New Scientist. Why did it take so long for the femur to be described? As New Scientist explained, after the femur was discovered in 2004 it was brought to the University of Poitiers. Collaborators wanted to study the femur, but the two lead authors of the present study, Macchiarelli and Aude Bergeret-Medina, opted not to do this “until this could be checked with Brunet and his team.” What happened next was quite strange: Later, Bergeret-Medina was unable to find the femur. Neither she nor Macchiarelli ever saw it again. However, when Brunetʼs team didnʼt describe the femur, she and Macchiarelli prepared a study using her photos and measurements.

@@rtmcdge "If there was [evidence] there'd be a whole lot less people who reject evolution. " But there already AREN'T many people who reject evolution. Putting aside your fallacious reasoning there (that the number of people who reject evolution is a metric for its soundness), your premise is wrong, as it implies there are a large number of people who reject it. The only people who reject it are fundamental christians and muslims. The majority of the world (including virtually 100% of biologists and other natural scientists) already doesn't reject it. And even still, as the first reply pointed out, we have tons of fossil evidence of human evolution ALONE, not to mention the countless other species of plants, animals, fungi, etc. And fossil evidence isn't even the be-all-and-end-all of evidence, as fossilization is hit and miss, so we're actually quite fortunate to have found what we have. More than that, we have incredibly detailed molecular genetic evidence of phylogenetic relationships, in the exact same way as we have DNA evidence of certain people being present at certain crime scenes (unless you'd just like to dismiss all of that as well). So when you ask 'what examples of organisms of today can you use to support your...ape like to ape and ape man' evolution, and the commenter gives a RECENT example -- i.e. a discovery from a few years ago, which, like all scientific papers of import, will be hotly debated for years -- and you simply use the controversy around that SINGLE example to dismiss the entirety of the evidence....is absurd. What about Homo habilis, the earliest known hominin? Or Homo erectus? Or all of the Australopithecus spp.? Sure, it's possible Sahelanthropus tchadensis specifically has been incorrectly classified (the analyses of the coming years will determine that; although, importantly, you have not shown that it IS, you have simply shown that there is not unanimous agreement about it), but those other examples like H. habilis are solidly established for decades. What is your rationale for insisting these AREN'T hominins and hominids?

"Answers in Genesis" may aswell rename their channel to "Arguments from Ignorance". The scientific consensus is pretty clear on evolution. There really is no debate, other than some creationists not wanting it to be true. "Micro evolution" was coined by creationists, to differentiate between the kind of change they cant deny and the kind of change they need to be untrue. Scientists didnt use this term for the longest time, as it was simply unnecessary. Evolution is evolution, it's the same process. Even today, when the term is unfrequently used, it is only used to differentiate the timespan talked about. That's it. Everything else is the same. We have mountains of evidence to support the notion of common descent. Genetics alone is enough to prove it. Yet all fields of biology, and many others, tell the exact same story. Be it embriology, taxonomy, comparative anatomy, or the fossil record. They all tell the exact same story. Not one of them agrees with your creationist world view. This is not a "you can believe A or B, it's just a decision". We have a scientifically accurate model about reality. Your decision is to care about truth, or listen to intellectually dishonest people or channels like Answers in Genesis, who literally profit off of telling you lies. "New genetic information" also isnt some kind of mystery. It happens all the time. Imagine genetic code like a page of letters. Mutations can change some of those letters, leading to a different description. If this description is beneficial, it will improve your rate of survival and reproduction, ie make you more fit for the environment you live in, and vice versa for negative mutations. Noone argues against mutations changing "existing" information int his way, right? That's "adaptation" after all, which even AiG agrees with. Yet there is common known mutations that literally duplicate existing data, thus causing an increate in the length of "paper" you can write on. Now we dont have 1 page but 2 pages to work with, which can be edited by the "adaptation" we agreed upon existing just as it worked with 1 page of information. I really have a hard time grasping how people dont see how this equals "new information". It's not rocket science, really. We have plenty of reallife examples too. Naturally occuring nylon eating bacteria are a thing, despite nylon being a synthetic material which did not exist until very recently. The core problem with the creationist worldview is that it relies on "kinds". What is a kind? How do you *define* a kind? It may seem intuitive, but reality is not that easy. Creationists wont give you a definition, because a working one *simply does not exist.* Feel free to prove me wrong. To any intellectually honest christian.. if you care about believing as many true things as possible and as few false things as possible, you really shouldnt be watching channels that profit off of selling you lies that feed your preexisting bias. They basically tell you want you want to hear. I dont expect you to read scientific papers, but there is literally databases (such as talkorigins) which pretty much track every creationist claim ever made and the correct scientific response to them. Why? Because creationistm only has one source, their holy scripture. It's thus rare for their arguments to change or for them to come up with new ones, and the rest of the world is literally bored of debunking the same arguments again and again which have been around for *decades* ..

3:33 adaptation is the change of behavioral/structural features of living things over time because of changes in its environment

Wow. Simple and hard hitting delivery.

Even if one could see a micro-evolutionary mutation that created a single small change, there would still be a huge problem: Every micro change can only continue to exist if, for its own sake, it somehow supports or enhances viability and procreation. Not merely the major outcome (say a liver e.g.) but every preceding micro mutation must have such a fundamental ground. Evolution is ostensibly a series of endpoints not "steps." Even the very term "steps" suggests purpose.

A mutation can also persist if it does not support or enhance anything. It just should not have a strong debilitating effect at that time and situation.

(5:36) You say evolutionists are trying to convince people of something no one has ever seen, referring to macroevolution. Well, Religionists are trying to convince people of god, something no one has ever seen. Furthermore, Creationists are always referring back to Darwin, while we have learned SO MUCH MORE, stuff that Darwin had no idea about.

This would be "micro evolution" or more accurately, adaptation which no one disputes. This can be observed and documented as Darwin did. This is exactly how reproduction was designed to work. But dogs will always produce dogs, no change to a new type has ever been observed. So that only leaves us with mutations as the creative engine. In order for macro evolution to work, mutations would have to add new, never before existing information or code purely based on coding errors. We know this doesn't work.

@@elkhuntr2816 yes and that's why the card analogy doesn't work because it completely misses a key component of evolution and natural selection, every offspring has several mutations, so the idea that it's always the same genes/cards is completely false. Micro and macro evolution are the same thing, they're the same process, one is just on a larger scale, the only ones who distinguish between the two are creationists. You can't have micro evolution without have macro evolution because the build up of micro evolution would cause macro evolution. Evolution is adaptation, it's the process of adaptation, what you are describing is evolution. Yes dogs will always produce dogs, because whatever species a dog evolves into with be both a dog and whatever new species they evolve into, just as birds are still dinosaurs and humans are still apes. But give a dogs enough time and their population will eventually change, this aspect of evolution is an observed fact, species evolving into new species has been observed in reptiles, birds, insects, bacteria, etc. Mutations do sometimes add new information, for example in humans you can have mutations that add whole new chromosomes. No mutations don't create new body parts, that's not how evolution works, dogs won't suddenly be born with wings or something, it's a slow progression of changes Norma in existing body parts, like for example the evolution of wings was a very slow change from arms to arms with long feathers, mainly used to keep eggs warm this was a positive trait so it was carried on and slowly the hands elongated which meant larger wings (some birds even still have claws), which meant they were better at keeping eggs warm, then eventually they could glide, this was also a positive trait, so that was passed on through the population and slowly became wings that could fly. So mutations do create complex information but over long periods of time. But the idea that mutations only remove information is something I've only ever heard creationists say, and it's because that's not the case. Not to mention that one single mutation can make a large difference, for example in humans single mutations have led to immunity from specific diseases, better oxygen intake, almost indisputable bones, increased muscle mass, the ability to survive in freezing cold water for long periods of time and in one case the ability to safely conduct electrical currents. So yeah single mutations can make huge changes, and that just in humans over the last century (and the ones that were documented).

Just because a cow has five legs instead of four that does not mean that the cow is evolving into something else, it just means that the cow has developed a bad mutation. Duplication and recombination of genes in different areas does not make something new. It only replicates and recombines what is already there regardless of where in the body that takes place.

Like the Galapagos finches, their beaks might vary because their genes got selected, but if you bring those birds back or add bird into the population they can still create generation that have different beaks. Its not as simple as words becoming entirely different, because the more accurate analogy to macro-evolution is "dog" word becoming "ape" which is way improbable, and considering you have to start from non-life its even more impossible. Ask any organic chem or bio students and they will tell you even a medium protein is insanely hard to make without help of organic (aka life) materials like enzyme etc. This is like the universe scrabble suddenly making a short journal paper, and the journal paper suddenly get reshuffled into a novel book (because remember, intermediate steps generation will die or be infertile) and the novel suddenly turn into encyclopedia, and encyclopedia suddenly turn into a bookshelf full of books.

As someone with a degree in Anthropology, who studied evolutionary biology, this is like listening to someone explain how the Earth can't possibly be round or we'd all roll off of it. This guy does a great job of explaining away something he either doesn't have the slightest understanding of or is purposely being dishonest about. Ok, first off. Darwin didn't understand anything about the biology, the genetics, or the concept of inheritance that made natural selection (part of, but not all of) a viable explanation for evolution. Trying to take the words of someone that didn't understand evolution and use those misunderstandings to disprove a completely different concept of mutation, is incredibly disingenuous. Can a dog grow wings when they don't have feathers? Over the span of tens of thousands of years, yes. How do we know that? Because we have fossil records of feathers developing over the course of thousands of years from scales, then to quills, then to feathers. Over the span of ten thousand life spans, could a dog, through natural selection, select for thicker skin, then scaly skin, then scales, then quills, then feathers, yes. And again, we have fossil records of this exact thing happening. The card analogy, btw, the line, "You might lose cards, but you can't ever select for new ones that don't exist." This is true in cards, but it isn't true in genetics. In genetics, each time a cell splits, there are mutations where the new cell DNA doesn't copy correctly. Why yes, this means new, never seen before "cards" are put in the deck. You don't get a new mole on your back at age 40 because it was in your DNA all along. That's new information. That's a new card. You're only driving evolutionists crazy because you're grossly ignorant of science.

But we don't know how to create the main building blocks or proteins and have them do the process to make 1 original living cell. That's because we don't have the slightest clue about how life came to be. High scholar's best guess is "well, there were acids in water and they randomly formed a cell" how is that an explanation of anything? Life is infinitely mathematically accurate, not random.

@@fubukishirou5023 And you were there to personally observe this process? Believing that theory requires an equal amount of faith as believing in a creator. Both are a story based on past data that you were told. You chose to believe one or the other... Have you considered both could be true? For example, when a mutation is kept. What decides that the mutation should be kept? If a scorpion for example first didn't have a stinger, but over time grew one to defend itself. It wasn't one creature or one consciousness that decided to grow that stinger. It was something else that decided that it would be better off keeping a stinger for self defence... what decided that? What decided the eco system and food chain had to look the way they look? Because when you change even one thing, it impacts everything else. Have you seen what mutations look like in our current world? Mutations form when DNA is hit by radiation. Either from the sun or... an event like Chernobil. The result is either cancer, or something that has an extra leg. When that creature with an extra leg reproduces, it does not create another creature with an extra leg. If that offspring is born outside of a radio active zone it goes back to its original shape. In the radio active zone, it'd still not copy the same limbs it'd be born with maybe an extra head or organ, because mutations are random. So something beyond DNA is deciding the exact amount of limbs that need to be on a creature and the mutation forms from the genetic code already available. You'll never see a radio active dog with a stinger as tail. So even if evolution happened, it does not disprove God because something beyond what we can detect is making decisions on how nature should function. I don't believe in a guy on a cloud. I believe that God is something of infinite complexity. Something that no one can grasp. Believing that everything is random. Is the same as believing buying one lottery ticket will win you the lottery. Maybe it will, but the chance is 1 in some really big number, a number infinitely bigger than the number of the chance it would take to win the lottery itself. When you think of it... We already won the lottery because we were born human in the 21st century. The chances of this were forever astronomically tiny.

I love this video, and I am an evolutionist. I do enjoy the separation of natural selection from evolution, but I do not agree with your disapproval of evolution. You seem to hold the idea that genetic mutation only takes away from a genetic pool, but that is simply not the case. I saw someone else in the comment section mention allergies, which is your body looking for dangerous substances, and deeming certain things as harmful, which while they are not helpful, they certainly are not taking away an antibody or a digestive element, but adding an antibody against that source. Genetic mutation can happen on a large scale as well. Blocks of DNA are composed of three sections of nucleotides, which is what is composed in chromosomes. If one of those nucleotides are removed and the rest of the DNA strand is forced to move up, that entire strand of DNA is permanently changed, and when a strand of RNA comes to copy it, it creates more and more. I understand that evolution seems sceptical and even odd, but it is simply wrong to assume that genetic mutation cannot be beneficial, and it is wrong to assume that genetic material cannot be constructed incorrectly. Simple changes such as a changed nucleotide could cause a cell to produce more keratin than normal, and that keratin may be pushed outside of our cells and form odd plates, or there may be a mistake that causes us to develop a protein in our body that does absolutely nothing, which happens quite often. Random mutations take a large amount of time, but they do happen. I will say my evidence for this will be allergies, and if you can prove that another phenomena caused them, I will provide more research and more study into the subject, and I will gladly debate with you, or if you wanted to take a jab at my own argument, please do so. I enjoy the way you debate, so please, debate me.

I'm 48. A Genetics graduate from 1997. I said all this 30 years ago. Speciation isn't possible by natural selection. Natural selection is easy to understand. For 12,000 years humans bred animals and plants. And the illiterate farmers for generations understood intuitively "manual selection" You missed this: partial sterility (outside any geographical isolation factors) is necessarily part of speciation. And the highest amount of speciation occurs in rain forest and coral reefs where there is no geographical isolation. But speciation means partial sterility which natural selection MASSIVELY selects against . IE it doesn't matter how big your muscles, if you can't mate 100% efficiently compared to your peers

Great video!

Wow - what a simplified version of science to fit a belief. He makes the argument that man bred dogs for 300 years and none of them have feathers so therefor, evolution which occurred over millions or billions of years isn’t valid scientific argument. He does throw in mutations but equates mutations to always being inferior. Granted 99 out of 100 (or maybe 999 out of 1000) mutations may cause weakness or death to the animal, the 1% or 0.1% that have a favorable mutation, would have a significant advantage over the rest of the species. As these animals breed and additional mutations occur over thousands of years, the animals can develop into a very different looking and functioning creature. So using flawed logic and simplified science he is simply saying “you cannot prove 100% that evolution is real and therefore the belief in a supernatural being is more believable” is not something that provides any sway to my understanding. This is a good argument for those that have already decided in a supernatural being to explain everything that doesn’t have a simple answer. It will further enforce the belief in those that refuse to do the hard work of thinking. There are clearly scientists that do not believe in evolution from a single cell to the complex life we see today and they have their theories which are well thought out and arguable. But universally it is acknowledged that life has been changing for over a billion years. The argument above does not address what can happen in a billion years and watching this gives me the feeling of a semi-knowledgeable adult talking to a classroom of second graders.

The one thing that is apparent is we are devolving every generation.

Mutation would be like adding a card like 13 of clubs or the -1 of hearts.

This is what I was thinking when I, as a teenager, was sitting in a 700 years old church, listening to the pastor talking about this God who nobody has ever seen or heard of in reality, staring at the altarpiece depicting god as an old bearded man hovering on a cloud looking down on earth.
