How telling that scientific textbooks don't contain lists of insults to throw at creationists.
@@joshuakohlmann9731 well, they arent scientific textbooks. they are fantasies.
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.
How was spontaneous generation disproved?
@@Jewonastick Spontaneous generation is outdated. it's the old hypothesis that life randomly generates on decaying organic material. They used to think that's what maggots were. It was disproved by Pasteur. Sadly, this guy still completely missed the boat because abiogenesis is the slow formation of life over time from its basic components, not the refuted hypothesis from hundreds of years ago.
He was simply wrong, this is a false dichotomy.
That's not what Abiogenesis is lol.
Indeed, you can't prove a bigfoot does not exist by pointing to the absence of evidence. Spontaneous generation might be possible under very specific circumstances.
@@Jewonastick Rather, it has never been demonstrated, even in a lab setting. I think scientists have been able to create 1 amino acid in a lab setting... which is a fundamental building block... but the remaining 19 are still a work in progress.
"A flying dog with wings" - wow - the most stupid thing I've heard.
Nice presentation, thank you!
Exactly. Every argument presented here, I've made countless times before I even watched creationist content. I was told, as a biology major, decades ago, that creationists lie and misconstrue and ignore evidence. So, I avoided their content, as I assumed it would not benefit my arguments, at all.
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. Not "fringe lunatics" as college indoctrinated me to believe they were.
Our schools are teaching falsehoods. Known falsehoods, and inoculating our children against a proper understanding of our world.
@@Bomtombadi1 to the contrary, I've had many successful conversations. :)
You don't have to change someone's mind, just expand it. The Spirit brings to repentance, not us.
I was an atheist in college, truthful testimony by the faithful led me to a place where the Spirit's leading took me out of error.
If you feel parroting to be effective, so be it. I devised these same arguments, myself, from the knowledge I gained in my education. Others will, too.
@@noneyabidness9644 exactly. Keep planting seeds of logic and reason and water them with love.
At the end of the day, the love is what matters and we are called to do anyway.

@@Bomtombadi1 I went to a public college.
And yes, I did devise them.
Creation science is real science. It is just that simple. When an atheist, like I was, can come to the same conclusion, based on the same evidence as creationists, then that is the reasonable interpretation of the facts.
@@Bomtombadi1 and I could sense your spirit was infirmed from the first comment you made. Bitter and combative. I'll pray for you.

I remember reading this story when I was a kid. And always keeping the moral of that story throughout my life when encountering similar situations
The moment a person allows doubt and distrust for God to take root in their thinking, is the moment that a chain reaction of all the seeds of evil begin germinating in the mind. The ability to believe what God has made abundantly easy to see and understand leaves a person and the scales of spiritual blindness grow rapidly. Envy and ego, greed and jealousy, shame and pride take over a persons' reasoning and motivations in life. The need to prove ones thoughts and ideas and motives become insatiable. Thanks for sharing this well presented explanation we should all be well grounded in as believers.
I am an atheist, I don't feel anything taking over - If you personally have an issue with these things, then that is because of your brain chemistry.. You might have a faulty brain.. Like many other people..
I once was a doubter. Back around 1993. I told God just what I was but at the same time prayed every day for months using Jeremiah 33.3 KJV as part of my prayer. Also told him I would go where ever he required regardless of friends or family including my wife. Well that never turned out good but my answer from God changed my life forever. He led me to the right church to be able to understand the bible including the prophecy of Daniel and Revelation. Life has never been the same as I know where this is all going. One more thing to happen worldwide and then the end of time will come rushing. Like it will only be a few years more or so after this ww event takes place. No I do not know the day or hour. Who does say they do are a liar. However this ww event will separate the wheat from the Tares. A big shaking coming in all churches. I have about 20 million more who will agree with me.
@@razark9 Thank you for proving my point. All people are evil. Christians are no exception, but they are forgiven of their evil nature and their sins are Passed over by the grace of God through the sacrifice of the Savior. The only difference is we believe what God says and we do not doubt him. Christians are not cut off from God. Unbelievers are cut off from God by their own choice. Unless they humble themselves and utterly yield to God and seek His mercy and His forgiveness, there is no way they can overcome the separation from God. And cut off from God an unbeliever will never comprehend the anything pertaining to God or how He works.
@@glennbrooks3449 everyone doubts or does not trust God before they are redeemed by God. God calls people to Him, not the other way around. We respond or refuse God's calling. You weren't hardened in your heart to God's calling, otherwise you wouldn't have been digging for truth. If you were, you would not have been seeking God's help, you wouldn't have been talking to God. The kind of doubt I'm referring to above is when a person is being called by God, when God is opening their eyes to His truth. If a person refuses to believe and trust God once they recognize He is calling them, their heart will harden against Him. God is long suffering beyond anything we can imagine, but if one refuses God, if a person hardens his heart and refuses to trust God, then the things of God become vague and unintelligible to him. The truths of God become nonsense to the person who refuses God. That doesn't mean that God can't knock you to your senses, but those are called trials and you don't want that to be the way He calls you. But hardship is one avenue that does bring some people to their knees before God Almighty begging for redemption. The fact that this world is in for a cataclysmic reckoning has little to do with an individual's salvation. Maintaining your faith in God if you live to see this cataclysmic time is another story. There are thousand upon thousands of Christians living through unimaginable tribulation this very day and they have been living in terror for centuries. Today Christians are hunted and slaughtered for their faith in God in many parts of the world. This has been going on since the beginning of the church. Will it get worse in the end? Yes that is absolutely clear. But millions of Christians have lived in tribulation and died because of their belief in salvation through Jesus Christ's sacrifice. What you are focused on has always been happening to believers.
Sin is always the issue ie greed, pride, self, jealousy, turning away from, or denying Christ, taking God out of the picture for their
own deceitful acheivement and ...PRIDE!
Here is a quote from Darwin showing even he was surprised how eagerly society took his ideas and built a huge structure around unproven theory. "I was a young man with unformed ideas. I threw out queries, suggestions, wondering all the time over everything, and to my astonishment, the ideas took like wildfire. People made a religion of them."
satan has created many false religions to confuse Gods creation.
where did he publish this? I'd like to add it to my collection of evidence against evolution
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.
This guy really put something on the old social media and got picket up by the algorithm
This ‘quote’ has been debunked many times over. It is from Elizabeth, Lady Hope who claimed to have a deathbed conversation with Darwin. Members of the Darwin family who were there during her visit denounced her claims as false and without merit.
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.
I would kindly disagree with you, as you see he says that there are limits to genetics, you
Can't have a human who can run faster than a cheetah , plus all genetic mutations are always bad , now you can tell me why then whe have tall people or short people, my answer is that their height and color where predetermined when there where born and genetic mutations don't play any role in the shape of the organism, and all of them are deadly, but in the end I respect your opinion I'm not a god after all to tell you what you should believe
@@MosaMan-ik6ei that’s a valid point. While mutations aren’t always bad. Take giraffes for example. Their genes at some point mutated to give a longer neck. Once it flourished because if its advantage it reproduced to make more. We also use mutations in plants to give larger yields. Some mutations are destructive while others are beneficial. That is what is conveyed in the theory of evolution. Just because it is random doesn’t mean it’s bad. With that said, I definitely learned a different perspective from this video and your response and would love to continue this. The reason I watch these videos is to challenge my beliefs, not to validate them. I always find flaws in my beliefs and am constantly working to refine them. More input helps me in this journey. I remain open minded to either side and can be convinced, I just haven’t found irrefutable proof for either case.

Drift isn't a source of variation. Reply to discuss.
What do you think these things have to do with causing new information that changes one kind of organism into another? They work within the boundaries of organisms, and can cause harm or be fairly neutral.

Most of what drives evolutionists crazy is the truth.
Their craziness is the result of cognitive dissonance resulting from science exposing their dogma for the myth that it is. They are having difficulty grasping that their house of cards crafted over 150 years is infested with error.
The more information that comes out, the more we find out that we have been lied to for years. Evolution is nothing but a big lie.
What makes creationists crazy are the facts.
That's why Jesus said he is the truth because all other "truths" simply fade away.
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am lthe way, and mthe truth, and nthe life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
As a Catholic school child, when school was out, I would walk across the street to the public library and wait there for my mom to pick me up. In that public library, there was one of those classic "ape to man" evolutionary images. I recall thinking, 'hmm, that makes sense.' Which is sad considering I was in a Catholic school! Even sadder is the fact that I wasn't learning a biblical world view at the Catholic school.
Fast forward to my teen years. My mom becomes born again, and takes me out of the Catholic school. I also become born again and have grown in my faith, mainly because of being plugged in to solid, bible based churches.

No, you've been spreading lies, to defend a lie. Those who are pretending they can see the Emperor's new clothes because everyone around them is saying they can see the clothes, are the theists pretending they have an experience of a supernatural being, because they believe everyone around them is experiencing a supernatural being - you are suffering from, and contributing to, a mass delusion. The thing is about methodological naturalism, is that it relies upon evidence occurring in nature to demonstrate a high degree of certainty in it's explanations of nature, whereas theism relies on faith - the excuse you use when you have no evidence. You've been brainwashed, and now you are abusing children, brainwashing them into believing they are the pawns of invisible supernatural agencies, when you have absolutely no evidence of this.
It's a real worry that they let nincompoops like you teach children.
I am an evolutionist and this does not make me crazy. In fact I love the questions raised. This is science, a problem is raised to your ideas and you explore further.
That is a good point. However, I believe what is most important is how one explores their ideas. I further believe that many people put more into the word. Science ! Than what is really there. 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. But I would rather consider myself a hand made creation of an Almighty God versus being the product of an Ape! How about you?
@@kenlucero3651 thanks for the reply. To me science is a method where ideas are put forward that can and should be both questioned and tested. This is why I like evolution because it is an amazing set of ideas that thousands of people have added their ideas to. Questions force scientists to rethink and revisit their ideas.
@@michaelatkinson4815 I also am grateful for your reply ! If I may say, I am really enjoying this conversation and again you have made a very good point. As I said. 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 purpose of science and the scientific method is never to find the truth rather to find error. Science is ever questioning, ever testing and always challenging the orthodoxy. Those who say “the science is settled” usually political zealots and not true to the fundamental purpose of science.

@@Moist._Robot if you do it's because Satan deceives you. revelation 12:9
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.
If it's more intuitive, to use the guy's card dealing analogy, imagine you accidentally rub the paint off of one of the cards - that would mean that whatever decks you make that come from that card might now be blank, and that fold might be bred into, making a whole new deck with all blank cards. It's a weird analogy that obviously doesn't work with dealing cards in real life, but the idea is that you're breeding the cards? Again, its a weird analogy.
He is right about not technically introducing anything new - its just more combinations of adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine. Sorry for replying to my own reply, but im the kind of person that always wants to add more onto their point that was already made 😅
Mutations do not become natural selection of a species. Order doesn't come from chaos.
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.
Yes, the deck of cards analagy is very helpful, especially the Tarot deck.
Originally added as a triumphant (trump) suit to traditional cards, they were then much much later attributed (aptly for the purposes here) to divination, the practice of seeking knowledge of the future or the unknown through supernatural means!
Or, in other words, adding or replacing plausibility with numinousity.
AiG proposes the ideological prime creation of the kingdom of heaven and the earth.
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.
Our planetary system is a solar system, not a terranus system.
Night and day exists because our planetary axial rotation exists.
And so on, and so forth.
Whilst the proposal for any God exists, it exists only through mankind.
The ideological man,
The explanatory man,
The fearful man,
And the scripted man.

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.
"Nebulous-Draco" - You wrote, "Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk."
LOL! In your next TEDTalk you should also discuss the occurrence of gene duplication mutations, which even adds sections of genetic material that were not even there before, which then down the line further mutations do their thing and the new genetic material can end up being used by the organisms. 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).
@@jamesvaughn7389 The very bizarre aspect of the young earth creationist "baraminology" concept is that young earth creationists (well, the young earth creationist who use the argument; because not all young earth creationists agree with it) end with the evolution of millions and millions of species populating the planet WITHIN THE LAST 4,350 YEARS. So "baraminology" entails superfast hyperdrive rate of evolution a million times faster than anything ever proposed by evolutionary biologists or paleontologists. Young earth creationists choke on a gnat, and swallow a camel. What a joke.
@@steveg1961 Right. Well, as an aexample of how little this person knows about DNA. Do a little research into Barbara McClintock and transposable DNA. It's a concept that DNA can transpose itself to create new mutations within the DNA chain. Simply put, DNA can mutate itself to create something that wasn't there prior. Now, I ask, is that God? Or is that God acting through natural methods and devices?
The fact of the matter is, every mutation creates a LOSS of viable genetic information. The overall DNA of plants, animals, and humans has been gradually degrading since scientists have been able to accurately measure, quantify, and identify the DNA of all living entities. Oh, and make sure you have some cookies with your milk.

He says it's "unobservable" but it's a not true. You can observe the evolution of bacteria in minutes. There are CZcams videos already about that.
@@sonus89you can observe *microevolution* of bacteria and the evolution of traits that scientists consider “analogous to macro evolutionary processes.” But your bacteria remained bacteria at the end of the study didn’t they?

@@fitforlife3168what happens though if let’s say a dog mates with another animal species, wouldn’t that increase the available gene pool?

Anyway, just curious.
An excellent commentary was very concise. One minor criticism of why you need to add the annoying music in the background only adds a distraction. I notice nothing like that in the ads
Concise? Straight up lie you mean!
We can’t breed flying dogs because, it would take too long, and be extremely complicated. And, the diversity with in the dog subspecies is impressive as it is. Radical differences in size, and even in skull shape, with some dogs having very long snouts and some breeds having no snout whatsoever. There are probably more anatomical differences amongst different dog breeds, than there are between humans and chimpanzees.
@@globalcoupledances Flying foxes are not actually foxes. They’re bats.

Good job ❤
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.
What about DNA mutations due to things such as radiation? Effectively adding more cards to the deck? Some mutations are less advantageous, others more.

@@Hoojammyflip Most genetic mutations are neutral. It's a common creationist lie to assume genetic mutations are never beneficial.
@@billy9144 That's not even slightly true. Most genetic mutations are deleterious; those that are beneficial and have been observed experimentally, e.g. E-coli mutating to reproduce faster involve losing a portion of DNA.
@@xn85d2Again, that lie has been long refuted. The majority of mutations are actually neutral to survival, deleterious are rare and are often eliminated from the gene pool because it doesn't survive.
The reason why macro-evolution has never been observed is that it takes millions of years to happen.
Also that it never will happen
@@YeshuaYaakov Thats funny, macro evolutions never happening... hilarious
Guess that means one of two things, in the beginning of life, every species that ever existed and will exist was there but then several hundreds if not thousands died off. That or some species suddenly and inexplicably appeared in the world... wonder which it is?
@@nebulous-draco1711 god created one common ancestor for each species and in that common ancestor varieties branch off that's why we have horses and zebras
@@YeshuaYaakov can you clear up what that means for me? 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. The second is a bit more believable, because there had to be a root origin for life, the first cell, but I doubt your "God" would just pop a cell or two in the ocean and call it a day would he?
@Nebulous-Draco I said that God would not have created the modern day horse we see today but its ancestor and its ancestor would have created all the variations we see today horse zebra donkey ect
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
Exactly genetic entropy is what we are witnessing. Not the addition of new genetic information that creates novel functionality and structures. Every time I bring this up people try to fall back knto ad populum and "multiple fields" which correspond supposedly to corroborate the theory when in reality geomagnetism, astronomy, genetics and virology completely disagree with this notion. It's just that only a few people are actually looking past the indoctrination and asking the questions to get to the heart of the matter. And of course those individuals are treated as outcasts and liars. Such is the world we live in today.
Somehow, I still have trouble seeing a chihuahua as a dog🤔
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.
In Europe and in other parts of the world, the major Christian churches, Protestants as well as the conservative Catholic Church, have no problem with the theory of evolution since decades. Seems to be mainly a problem in the US-America.
I need to know this:
Do you actually believe in evolution or not? Your video makes it clear that you understand basic concepts within it, but then you just... randomly deny other aspects? I can't tell if you're lying about it for publicity, or if you're just in denial.
They are promoting microevolution (evolution within a kind, but not between kinds - which would be macroevolution).
@@jamiebanks4939 but macro evolution is just a series of micro evolutionary stages strung together. You can't have one without the other
While I agree with the explanation given in this video, the Achilles’ heel to this theory is the fact that people promoting it say the Earth is only 6 to 10,000 years old.… if you push that as fact, nobody will listen to anything else you have to say.

That's like a flat Earther asking me to "review all his evidence"... as if it would somehow change my mind. why would I do it? Or someone that has a bunch of evidence on UFO abduction. Why waste the time?
From a "logical" standpoint - if we believe that God can create the universe and everything in it... it isn't that big of a mental leap to believe he could create some things to be older than others. If we, as humans, can produce art, clothing, or media that appears to be older than they actually are - surely God could produce rocks that seem, by all modern testing methods, older than they are.
Forgetting that mutations add new cards lol 😂
A new card would be a new piece of genetic code that produces a useful and effective feature, that harmonises with the rest of the organism to contribute to its survival.
Mutations have been shown to fail miserably at this monumental task. They cannot even build a single unique new protein, nevermind a cell. If you don't think this is so, please put forward a link to the research that has demonstrated mutations generating new 'cards'
Please, list all of the helpful genetic mutations we've documented that could possibly lead to an animal changing species below. Remember, we would need billions of them, and those billions would need to happen exactly the same... billions of times. And those billions of mutations would need to be followed by billions more that continue in the same positive direction as the first billion. While you're at it, list the hundreds of millions of transitional creatures we've found that would be clearly present if macro evolution actually occurred.
Well explained. Thank you and God bless.

Hey, AiG. Let me give you some free advice, so that the general population will take you more seriously.
Stop using these terms:
1. “Evolutionist”
2. “Darwin/Darwinian/Darwinism
3. “Secular Science”
People who aren’t creationists, don’t refer to themselves as “evolutionists”. That’s like calling myself a “round-earther”.
You keep referring to Darwin, as if he holds a god-like status. Darwin is 200 years ago. He got some things right, he got some things wrong. Let’s try to catch up on what has been discovered since then, okay?
Science holds no belief system, so referring it as “secular”, sounds as ridiculous as it is. “Science” helps you make this show possible: the electricity, the lights, the cameras, the internet, CZcams, etc. All done by science, not secular science, or “Christian/biblical Science” (whatever that is?)
Hope this helps.
Genes can duplicate and recombine to different locations and thereby create new functionality.
@@quantitativediseasing9988except what s/he's saying is true, not made up
I'm afraid I don't understand how duplicating and recombining in different locations can create new functions and therefore prove that we all had a common ancestor. 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.

@@Grace-iq7mp It does make something new. If we take the word "bell" and slightly change it, it becones "belt". If we slightly change it again, it becomes "bent".

@@Quartz512_ The main point is that this never happens in nature, only in the imagination of evolutionists. I'm always amazed that there are seemingly intelligent people who actually believe the Darwin fairy tales. It's almost laughable, but very sad so many can be misled.
@@Quartz512_we dont have a problem with micro-evolution, as thats basically reshuffling of genes. 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.
I really struggle with this. I'm a Christian but I find myself not believing the creation account in Genesis. To me, it is allegorical.
@@norbertjendruschj9121 I understand that creationism is not a religion, but when preachers "demand" that we who profess Him also believe it, it is difficult to bring the two together.
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.

Thank you so much keep the good news coming
How is it good news? You want to have someone watching over you all the time and telling you what to do? Sounds like bad news to me.

Go ahead and say what you think that he said that is wrong. Come on, spit it out.
The video is completely factual, the same can't be said about the darwinian evolution fairytale.
Don’t write a check you can’t cash. That’s evolution in a nutshell. If an idea doesn’t hold up on its own merit, it slowly dies.
The deck of cards analogy is totally wrong. New genes can arise by well understood mechanisms
Every shred of evidence used to support Darwinism requires the presumption of evolution.
I am a Christian, I will tell you the problem I have with a lot of Christians. They will look at a banana and see how it’s similarly shaped to our hands and say “this was intellectually designed to fit in my hand”. Then they will look at a skeleton and be shows the same bones in different species and go “this is not evidence of anything. It doesn’t matter that our hands and monkey hands have the same structure, that’s not a common ancestor that’s just a designer using copy and paste.
@@johnschwalb you didn't explain what is inherently wrong with that. It is deductive reasoning. BTW, I don't know of anyone who says the fact that a banana can fit in his hand is proof of a creator.
Microevolution equals macroevolution, accepting one will inevitably lead to the other, evolution doesn't stop at some time it goes on forever as long as the creature's lineage exists, it is a process that lasts millions of years because each major mutation is small and almost non visible, we only see those changes when the species already separated completely, it is similar as to how we don't see the changes in our body from when we are a baby to when we are an adult, you can take photos but there will not be a "transitional" photo that is gonna make it clear when you stopped being a baby or a kid, that's what happens to the transitional fossils that we have, they are so similar to us genetically and physically that when you make a line with all of them chronologically located it all leads to a clear pattern of evolution over the millions of years that they existed to the bones of us living today, I would be happy to see you guys trying to debate with someone with at least basic knowledge of evolutionary biology because I'm certain that those arguments wouldn't last a minute.
@@josephthinn3900 There are a lot of wrong things to unpack here.
You mention organ evolution. I ask you to read the article "The Evolution of Complex Organs" (Gregory, 2008). It is a pretty long read, and it includes a case study regarding the evolution of eyes.

While this refutation doesn’t support Biblical origins any better than natural selection, it mirrors mathematical doubts that have cropped up in recent years. Radical and sudden mutations are necessary to support the adaptations we see in nature. The sudden nature of these necessary leaps are more than a bit mysterious.
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. Ask yourself why they never mention it.
@Aron Gladden Check out the evolutionary history of the Covid 19 pandemic. A number of new strains have evolved since 2019 (That's less than a million years :-)). The mutations involved were not beneficial for us but they sure gave the virus many new leases of life. So you are quite wrong. We have seen many "Beneficial" Covid 19 mutations since 2019.
Vaccination has saved billions of lives and our modern world would not be possible without them. They work via the natural selection of beneficial mutations to DNA.
Perhaps you don't know about "Endogenous retroviral markers". :-) Those markers and the genetic molecular clock are how we know that chimps are our closest relatives and that our common ancestor species lived some 6,000,000 years ago.
As for "all scientific evidence" you don't seem to know about the evidence in Geological strata, tree rings, ice cores, radiocarbon dating, Uranium decay dating, the fossil record, and the correlations of all that with the Milancovitch Cycles. Have you been skipping your homework assignments?
Evolutionists know all this and so do many Creationists but they don't let on.
@Aron Gladden The DNA of all of the many covid strains has been fully sequenced. Is it really your view that the DNA of later variants can be found in the DNA of earlier ones? If you are right about that then we could prove it by downloading the DNA files and get ourselves Nobel Prizes! You up for that?
I note that you don't deride the significance of the cross-correlation seen between the various dating methods and their correlation with the Milankovitch cycles. Does that mean you don't know about these things.
Same goes for the history of smallpox, Polio, and many other nasty diseases that are held in check by vaccination.
This is an extremely poor argument against evolution. The time frames and concepts he's covering are extremely simplified and easily explained by evolutionists. Check out guys like ProfessorDaveExplains if you're interested in hearing what the other side has to say. The science is quite convincing, in my view, and I'm still a Christian.
I can imagine they all you a pseudo-Christian.

The perfect model to remove God and replace him with government. Every corrupt power hungry leaders go to. Thats why it took off.
You really think that evolution is just an idea than no one ever really looked into very much and just got to be accept as scientific fact? That’s an insane thing to say
@@danielduvana let me guess you're one of the ones who have looked into all the so called facts and verified for yourself and thus concluded for yourself that at least for you, you evolved from slime. Why has this idea only pop up within two hundred years. Did Darwins brain evolve to get this understanding?
The reason is that most people WANT it to be true. Anything to get away from God.
Darwin also knew nothing of how complex cells were and how complicated these changes were.
Newton knew nothing about gravity waves and Higgs field and still the theory of gravity created by him had enormous validity.
He was a founder of "The Glutton Club" whose sole purpose was to consume species of animals unknown to people of the time. His description of the animals was rather from a foodie perspective, which obviously has nothing to do with zoology or biology. In fact, many scientific experiments were carried out in attempt to support Darwin's claims, but ended up proving that he was wrong. The best example that comes to my mind is the Russian scientist who tried to make a hybrid of human/ chimpanzee by injecting human sperm in chimpanzees, and women with chimpanzee sperm. The experiment was redone many times but always ended with failure.
@@mikolajtrzeciecki1188 yes Newton is widely acknowledged as the greatest scientist who has ever lived, and 70% of his writings were christian theology, his faith heavily influenced his works
@@user-rb3tk5th2i So perhaps you should also stop discounting Darwin for his lack of knowledge about mitochondria and about DNA

Outstanding
Clear and comprehensive. Great presentation as well. Thank you!
The reason it's easy to understand for people like you is because it's filled with oversimplification and misrepresentations.
@@idenree5949 Thank you for the response. Would you be willing to point out any of the oversimplifications or misrepresentations? That would be very helpful for me to learn where I’m going wrong.
Hope all is well with you!
Personally, I always thought natural selection and adaptation happened too fast in things like anoles for it to take millions of years to make a new creature. Using an anoles timescale you’d think it would take a few hundred, maybe a few thousand years. Anoles can go from tiny with sharp toes to large with massive toe pads for climbing tree leaves in several generations. Within a human lifetime. Seems like a God thing to me. I’ll go into that last comment if someone wants to know what I mean by “a God thing”.
You are correct in saying that time is a problem for evolutionary theory. Steady State Theory is what Darwin believed and he insisted that changes took place over eternally long periods of time. Proof that the Universe had a beginning (13.8 billion years ago) and is not eternal, has ended Steady State.
im not very educated about anoles, but the fact that one animal adapted fast does not at all disprove natural selection and adaptation. the fact that you believe in natural selection means that you should accept evolution. evolution is just a continuing cycle of adaptation and natural selection. also, you're drawing lines by saying one creature simply 'becomes' another. evolution is not like a ladder but a gradient, interconnected web thats constantly changing. there is no one right answer. try to do some research without being biased by faith and itll start to make sense
Amen!!!
Thank you for this!
Well worth watching. I really enjoy this guy. He speaks with such clarity and humility, rather than contempt. And that's not easy, considering there is SO much ridiculous material spewing out from evolutionists.
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.
Humility???
His snarky smugness is nauseating...you rarely see that out of evolutionists.
@@Deontjie What about eye color? Or did Adam and Eve have every human eye color we see today...
@@FilipCordas That sound strange. Coming back to my argument, so "evolution" magically evolved two eyes simultaneously, and they did a perfect match with the colour. And evolution did it eight times for a spider.
@@Deontjie No no magic need, and you avoided my question how many eye colors did Adam and Eve have? As to your question having two eyes is the product of bilateral symmetry or do you not believe in that? Spiders or clade Araneae don't have 8 eyes they can have 6,5,4 2 or even no eyes and they didn't evolve 8 times they evolved two times once for the primary then for the secondary that's why they are distinct one from the other.
