- John joins Dr David Berlinski to delve deeper into the flaws within Darwin's theory of evolution, held in such high esteem within educational facilities and modern discourse.
Doctor David Berlinski has a Ph.D. in philosophy form Princeton University and later became a postdoctoral fellow in mathematics and molecular biology at Columbia University. He has taught a wide range of subjects including philosophy, mathematics and English at Stanford, Rutgers, the City University of New York and the Universite de Paris. He has also held research fellowships at the International institute for Applied Systems Analysis in Austria and the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques.
David is a polymath, academic, and raconteur who is a vocal opponent against Darwinism, and is a sceptic around the science of climate change. His books include Human Nature, The Devil’s Delusion: Atheism and Its Scientific Pretensions, Infinite Ascent: A Short History of Mathematics, The Secrets of the Vaulted Sky, The Advent of the Algorithm, Newtons Gift, and A Tour of the Calculus.

I love something Berlinski said in another program- “What we do know about living systems is that there is a degree of complexity that is almost unfathomable. Complexity wrapped up in complexity wrapped up in complexity forming an an endless panorama of labyrinths”
It doesn’t require years of academic study to appreciate the truth of this comment. The average person could be excused for not thinking this is a chance accidental non purposive living system we are part of.
And Berlinski's contribution to understanding the complexity is.......
Take all the time you need.
Sitting helplessly on the sidelines lying about and sneering at scientists doesn't count.
And the "intellectual" could be excused for thinking they know more than they actually do and have it figured out, regarding these complexities.

What did he lie about?
One of my all-time favourite quotes is from Niels Bohr, regarded as the father of quantum mechanics:
*_¨Do not speak more clearly than you are able to think.¨_*
No wonder Einstein said to him: *_¨I love your mind.¨_*
People may say they believe in evolution, but that doesn't mean they know it. Hence they often say things that do not add up, and they often are not even aware of it.
Believing in evolution really has not much to do with science. It has much more to do with choice. In that case, their understanding of science has only become a ruse.
@@nickdial8528 he has lied about having a PhD in mathematics. He has lied about being a post doctoral research fellow at Columbia.
His highest qualification in mathematics is a basic bachelors and his grasp of advanced mathematics is pitiful or comedic depending on your mood.
A repugnant, lying sneering fraud.
At about the age of eight, I was introduced to Rudyard Kipling's "Just So" stories. It was a good preparation for being introduced to evolutionary thinking in high school.
Exactly. Lamarckian inheritance was called a ‘just so story’ but it is also true of macroevolution.
@@seaknightvirchow8131 No it isn't. Marco evolution- which I doubt you could define- has been observed and documented.
@@mcmanustony You nor anyone else has seen a bird turn into a bat or cow into a giraffe or an ape into a man. There are boundaries between species which observation has shown. Intentional mutation of bacteria and fruit flies has never resulted in anything but bacteria and fruit flies. Breeders know this and geneticists know this. You don’t know what you are talking about.
@@seaknightvirchow8131 can you define macro evolution?
@@seaknightvirchow8131 "You don’t know what you are talking about"- adorable.
"There are boundaries between species which observation has shown"- boundaries between EXTANT species. This is the law of monophyly. NEW species can emerge WHICH OBSERVATION HAS SHOWN.
"You nor anyone else has seen a bird turn into a bat"- correct, the reason being that would violate the law of monophyly. No one- as in NO ONE claims any such thing.
Evolution applies to populations not individuals. This is very very basic...and yet you struggle.
"ape into a man"....ummm.....humans ARE apes. "APE" is a group of species from the family "hominoidea"- includes gorillas, chimpanzees, bonobos AND HUMANS. You might as well say "no one has observed a vegetable turn into a carrot"
New species of fruit flies have evolved in the lab- reproductively isolated from their parent populations.
"Bacteria" is a KINGDOM of life. What in the name of sanity do you expect bacteria to evolve into? Lenski's LTEE has documented evolution in e-coli happening in real time- one population evolving the ability to anaerobically metabolize citrate.
" You don’t know what you are talking about."- absolutely adorable.....
Hahahah. Great! Comparing the transcriptional errors that turned Don Quixote into War And Peace! Funny but lucid.
No, it's a terrible example. We have the fossil record. If the 'Don Quixote' record of transcriptional errors were as strong, then we might well come to the conclusion of a common descent from some primordial novel. But if the evidence isn't as strong, then the example is non-applicable. This is a classic example of a strawman argument, I'm afraid. A pity that John Anderson didn't push back on that.
Yes, I agree, on all counts. Once a few mistakes accumulate, in a text, it becomes illegible and unpublishable. And so, it is illustrative of how a species becomes extinct ...giving more weight to Darwinian Theory.
No, it's not a great example. It's just Berlinski being his usual pretentious pompous self. He could better spend his time actually learning biology rather than posing as an intellectual.

If you could show transitional forms of Don Quixote to War and Peace, then yes, it would be reasonable to fund research into this concept. We don't (aside from the development of language and culture, but that's not the point Berlinski is trying to make). We have a number of cases of intermediate forms seen in diverse forms such as fossils, genetics, observed inheritance, etc. Moreover, we know that in principle evolution works because we have seen it working, both in lab experiments and in many, many, many cases of digital evolution that show that a random start can result in complex structures.
Berlinski states that the environment changes and this invalidates evolutionary theory. He could not be more incorrect. We know that evolution can change organisms, and the changed organisms can change the environment. This results in something called co-evolution and is an area of very active research.
All that this video shows is a person who is either ignorant of modern research, or knowledgeable, but for some reason is lying - perhaps because they fear that the truth would upset their presupposition that a perfect god made everything.
Yes, adaptations, mutations and speciations all observable to their limitations but not observable or experimental showing transition where one animal has changed completely.
@@exsalafi393 Do you know the saying, "Rome was not built in a day"?
It seems that you are rejecting the fact that major transitions happen because we have not seen them happen in a short period of time. The theory of evolution requires that it takes a long time to see major transitions in biological organisms. Moreover, we do observe small changes (adaptations) that over the time scales theorized by evolution could account for major transitions.
Finally, as I mentioned above, in digital evolution experiments that follow that same basic rules as biological evolution and where major transitions can occur in observable time, we do observe major transitions.
In short, we have sufficient evidence to accept evolution, and no evidence to support any other model.
@@cliffordbohm
Yes Rome was not built in a day but then you forget that this is repeatable and observable.
Can you imagine how many fossil records you have to collect and lineup too show a complete transition.
Separate the facts from the fictions.
Science is not about imaginations, guesses, speculations and beliefs of the unseen.
@@exsalafi393 I honestly don't even know what you are trying to say. Try again with complete sentances. Or don't, because evolution is real and this is a silly conversation.
Seriously though, I am a student working towards a phd in the theory of evolution and how evolution can generate cognition. I have been working on my degree for six years so far. Evolution works. Get over it.
@@cliffordbohm
If you believe in the unseen, evolution THEORY is for you.
Not one example of transitional evidence you can provide, yes not one from you evolutionists.
It sounds to me as though Dr. Berlinski is trying to re-rehabilitate Lamarckism. Please correct me if i am mistaken.
No you aren’t mistaken. He pushes Lamarckism when he is rambling on about elephants.
He's just trying to pay the bills. His academic career was an unmitigated disaster so he's embraced creationism as a good income stream from gullible US conservatives too scientifically illiterate to see that he's a pompous fraud.
@@JamesLee-iv7ff "That's the kind of anecdotal story that's told." If the elephant trunk business is an "anecdotal story," he would appear to be pooh-poohing Lanmarckism rather than pushing it.

This is the problem with scientism. All of science is our collective best understanding of reality gained by observation. Belief in the ideology of scientism has nothing to do with the scientific method. Our understanding of reality is always imperfect, but to dismiss a theory without presenting a different theory which better explains observations of reality is useless and pointless. This is why climate models and COVID models are useless. Observation of reality override theoretical models.
"to dismiss a theory without presenting a different theory which better explains observations of reality is useless and pointless." I do not agree. People are not looking for a better theory if they erroneously believe the current theory is correct. Pointing out the problems of a theory and dismissing it is not only necessary, it is the scientific method. Per the scientific method, no better theory is necessary at all to disprove a theory. All that is necessary is that the theory does not fit observation. Per the scientific method, once it is proven that a theory does not fit observation, that theory must be abandoned and a new hypothesis must be created and tested. Unfortunately, the modern brand of scientism has largely abandoned the scientific method while pretending to support the scientific method.
@@wesbaumguardner8829 The problem with that stance is you may as well claim reality does not exist. In such a case science is rather pointless.
I disagree to an extent. I don't think there's anything wrong with pointing out inconsistencies without presenting an alternative theory. Science would never get anywhere if you had to have an alternative theory in order to criticize an existing theory. You identify a problem, and _then_ you try to work out a theory that rectifies that problem with observation. It's like saying you can't call a meal bad without offering up a better meal. It just doesn't make sense.
@@thegeneralist7527 "The problem with that stance is you may as well claim reality does not exist." That is a non sequitur. Claiming you do not understand reality is not the same as claiming that reality does not exist; nor is it the same as claiming it is impossible to understand reality. There is no problem with my stance at all. Acknowledging that you do not understand something is the first step of investigation. Acknowledging a lack of understanding means people have some work to do to figure out what is actually going on. Claiming that a theory which is demonstrably incorrect is correct and using it as if it is correct only impedes progress as error after error are duplicated, accumulated, and amplified. The resultant snipe hunting only wastes the time and resources of our best and brightest as they delve deeper and deeper into a never ending abyss of folly.
"In such a case science is rather pointless." That is incorrect. Scientific inquiry can only be pointless when it is following the methodology you are proposing which is to keep erroneous theories that do not fit observation. Such methodology is religion and not scientific. Per the scientific method, a hypothesis or theory must be abandoned when it does not fit observation and a new hypothesis or theory must be created and tested. That is a non-negotiable requirement of the scientific method. If that requirement is not met, the person is not utilizing the scientific method at all.

It was a theoretical to illustrate how silly Darwinian Evolution is given the complexities of biological systems and how delicate they actually through a basically accessible illustration
In the beginning God created and since then species have adapted to their changing environment. I can't believe for a single moment that life in all it's complexity is the result of random accidents.
Your point is contradictory. You refuse to believe that life is the result of random accidents yet you claim a ‘god’ created life and it adapted to its environment, which would inevitably include random accidents such as climate changes or natural disasters.
Evolution isn't random, it's deterministic.
@@adamheywood113 deterministic? Is that in reference to my comment or the original?
@@JamesLee-iv7ff I realise you got the notification but my comment was directed at the original comment, where he said he couldn't believe that life's complexity was due to randomness.
Nevertheless, organisms in a population compete for resources in order to successfully reproduce. Those which succeed, and those which fail, are _determined_ by certain factors. The specific factors depend on the organism, and what it needs to reproduce.

@@mcmanustony Darwin was mentally challenged and so are their followers.
Evolution is the newest religion for the scientists and the people who don’t believe that there is a mind behind the universe. If you happen to be a colleague who disagrees with their theory,excuse me I mean narrative, then you’re berated,accused of being a creationist or discredited to the point where you are found looking for another career path. Berlinski is probably far smarter than anyone who posts on this thread and few of us if any would be willing to stand and debate him on this subject matter. Richard Dawkins himself has said that it looks as though their may be information in the DNA that may be the driving force for evolution and that there may well have been an ancient alien type of event but no doubt those beings who created us came about through the evelutionary process. Really Richard? You’ve laid your king down on a chess board and yet you cling to your hope…. Sounds like religion to me.

@@NSOcarth
You having the same misinformed beliefs on things doesn't mean what you think it means.
Evolution is not science, but science fiction.
What Berlinski and many others miss about evolution is that there are TWO absolutely essential factors in how evolution works, not just one. Biology is critical, of course -- but the environment is every bit as critical as biology is. Leave either factor out, and evolution becomes incoherent.
@7:00 he touches on environment. But how does bringing in environment discredit his argument that evolution is all just "lucky breaks"?
@@rasheedlewis1
Environment determines what a lucky break is. Organisms spread out over wider and wider geographical areas as their population grows, exposing the organisms to different environments, and hence reinforcing or inhibiting the expression of different traits. Error margins in radiometric dating may be as high as 5%. So samples from the Cambrian explosion 500 million years ago may be off by as much as 25 million years, enough time for evolution to occur while samples show "sudden" appearances of fossils that are not actually so sudden after all. Most organisms today are uniquely identifiable through DNA -- that is, even within a species, each organism in that species is quite literally a "mutant" with respect to every other organism in that species. Evolution is working on an entire population of "mutants" at every reproductive cycle -- so evolution is not waiting around for some "lucky" mutation in an individual to break through and somehow become dominant in the genome.
It's not so much that the term "lucky break" is categorically incorrect, but rather that the context for interpreting what the term means is ambiguous enough to be misleading and dismissive. Evolution is still a determinative system, so is not a matter of "luck". But it will only occur under certain conditions, and it can be considered "luck" for those conditions to occur in any particular place at any particular time. If you got snake eyes on your first throw of a pair of dice, that would be lucky. But snake eyes are inevitable with enough throws, so is not necessarily "luck" if they eventually turn up.
@@dougsmith6793
Regarding the dice analogy, that is precisely the issue. The chance for snake eyes is 1/36.
One chromosome, in one human, has 248,387,328 base pairs. What exactly are the chances of one of these base pairs exhibiting a copy error that results in one imperceivable yet evolving step toward more fit and viable descending species?

[RASH]: "One chromosome, in one human, has 248,387,328 base pairs. What exactly are the chances of one of these base pairs exhibiting a copy error that results in one imperceivable yet evolving step toward more fit and viable descending species?"
Any given reproductive cycle in humans produces an average of 200 mutations. Since this is true for every reproductive cycle, then every organism is literally a mutant with respect to every other organism. Evolution works on populations -- it doesn't wait for some ideal mutation to do what it does. So, the chances are just about always 100% that mutants are abundant in a population.
[RASH]: "The number of fossil populations from one "species" to another would have to be literally astronomical. We should quite literally be swimming in fossils. Yet, somehow miraculously, we have gaps in fossil records. And yet, this is somehow chocked up to random mutations?"
If we were to dig up the entire planet down to a depth of hundreds or thousands of feet, we could recover a much more complete fossil record. Organisms don't fall on top of each other neatly stacked, and multiple generations of organisms don't automatically encounter conditions favorable to fossilization. Gaps in specific genetic lineages are the norm, not the exception. However, just a single reasonably complete transitional sequence makes the case for evolution. And that sequence is complete enough in whales and humans that calling it "coincidence" is a dodge.
Further -- you think evolution is impossible. Therefore, you cannot possibly know how it would have happened (if it actually did). Since you can't possibly know how something that's impossible actually happened (by definition), then any argument you may make against it has no other choice but to be based on ignorance.
Creationists already concede so-called "micro" evolution. "Macro" evolution is an accumulation of "micro" evolutions.
Further than that, do you realize you're arguing for ID on mutation rates? That in itself is a huge concession -- the naturalists have succeeded in controlling the narrative so thoroughly that even the creationists are forced to argue on naturalistic turf. It's like fighting for control of a street in a city -- in a country that has already lost the war. So God is hiding in mutation rates? God made some law that said that naturalistic mutation rates are permissible for micro-evolution, but off-limits for macro-evolution?
Epigenetics plays a big part in evolution.
Then its not darwinian.

The assembly of DNA through natural means obviously is widely thought to have originated from RNA but scientists have yet to actually confirm how this was done as no successful synthesis of RNA or DNA under abiogenesis conditions has been replicated yet given the uncanny difficulty and improbability of the needed biomolecules combining the way they would need to with the proposed enzymes and proteins available. The science is far from settled on this question. We can try to predict the future and assert science will achieve this feat and prove such a hypothesis (which i happen to suspect will occur, even if demonstrably difficult) but such a claim is still unproven until such experiment is actually achieved, so until then we are relying on faith in science to justify that claim rather than science itself. Conflating the two is a philosophical error and bad for science.

You’re supposed to be pretending it’s about the science
Evolution theory doesn't say that everything is explained by copying errors in DNA. So Berlinski is attacking a straw-man of his own creation. He is attacking some kinds of "scientism", perhaps.
However, there are many more things that are explainable by our genetics that we are not yet aware of.
Also, if God is the All, and Infinite, then God is behind, and in. and composes every aspect of evolution.
Also, his analogy of changing one book into an altogether different book is completely false.
A better analogy would be, for example, re-interpreting a single word from a book, such as the word "God" in the Bible, which completely changes the meaning and function of the book. This would be like a single mutation which changes everything.

Hmm... I'm not sure, might be damaging a little of your channel's credibility with this one. Evolution is probably the closest thing to a physical law the biological sciences have, because the really cool thing about it is it doesn't just apply to biology. There's a branch of AI called evolutionary algorithms, where all you need is some way to evaluate fitness and random mutations, and then evolution will do the rest. In some cases these can outperform humans - NASA's even used aerials evolved from some of these algorithms on some of their spacecrafts.
I wouldn't say that you damage the credibility of a channel dedicated to conversation by allowing someone to express an opinion contrary to the status quo. Your points addressing his points are THE point. It got you to think about, articulate and express a counter opinion so I'd say it's wholly credible 😊
No, you must be able to question theory or it is not science. Evolution like relativity has withstood many attacks but to date no-one has disproven either theory or been able to come up with a better one to explain observation.

He's dead now, but he claimed that he could reproduce all the triumphs of GR with a generalized solution to Einstein's field equations where the mass of particles does not remain constant across time.

Organisms in a population are non-identical.
They compete for resources to ensure replication; resources which are limited.
Through their uniqueness, some members of the population have advantages over others.
Through the inheritance of characteristics, the more successful members pass these traits to the next generation.
This is not difficult.
That's not evolution. And it doesn't explain where the information for the characteristics came from in the first place.
Traits can be inherited, but there are boundaries to change. A reptile cannot become a bird.

1. Natural is prolific. Far more offspring are born than can possibly survive to breed.
2. Offspring are not identical. They are individuals with their own traits and characteristics.
3. If any of these traits aid in survival or give some slight advantage in reproduction, and the traits are heritable, then over the generations, they will spread through the population and come to dominate.

I can't believe this guy is an ivy league school professor. The only portion that could even be considered an "argument" was his Don Quixote analogy, which is so unintelligent and absurd. There was no selection mechanism listed in the analogy. Darwinian evolutionary theory would require some form of selection mechanism for the survival of each generation of the copying differences. If anything, the selection mechanism would be READERS, and therefore it would never even get close to evolving into War and Peace, because the copying errors would be noticed immediately and not copied further. If anything, the selection pressure in that example would select for the book remaining the same generation after generation. Even a layman like myself can see this, and I'm a Christian.
