  • In our latest behind the scenes video, Neil deGrasse Tyson asks Bill Nye to explain Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. Watch as Bill tells Neil and Chuck Nice about natural selection, dandelions, acorns, sperm, and how amazing Darwin’s accomplishment was given that he didn’t even know about DNA and chromosomes yet. You’ll also find out a few of the strange things Neil, Bill and Chuck have each collected in their lives.
    This "Behind the Scenes" video was shot during the recording of our episode, " The Story of Life on Earth with Sir David Attenborough." If you'd like to listen to the full podcast, click here: www.startalkradio.net/show/the...

    Charles Darwin and Gregor Mendel would have been so excited to see what their work inspired. I wish I could see the reactions on their faces.

    • @loricalass4068
      @loricalass4068 Před 7 lety +1

      Mendel actually used the scientific method and produced results we still use all the time today. Darwin? Let's look at the "Bible" of evolutionism, The Origin of Species. Maybe because it is so mind numbingly boring, people rarely notice something, namely that it never shows the origin of anything! Darwin's finch beaks are supposed to support goo through the zoo to you, but what do they really show? Zero.
      .
      Research reveals that the beaks grow back and forth in size depending on climate variations. The evidence that finches or Galapagos Island Turtles et al have ever been or ever will be anything but finches , G.I. turtles et al? Zero again.
      .
      But if you can provide data that they "evolved" from something else, please do so. Not theories presented as evidence, now, but scientific data.
      .
      Oh, and btw, as usual in evolutionary theory you are being told one thing while the opposite is true, as about natural selection. It does not lead to evolution as Darwin claimed. It only shuffles, or sometimes eliminates, pre existing information that has always been in the genes. It never creates new DNA as would be necessary, for ex., to turn a fin into a foot or a leg into a wing. Nothing ever observed creates new DNA. All DNA is just a copy of a copy of a copy which can be altered by things like mutations.
      .
      Beneficial mutations? They are said to be the second force for evolution. However, Charles Muller, who won a Nobel Prize for his work on them, said "The good ones are so rare that we can consider them all bad."
      .
      Darwin was nothing but an armchair theorist who, unlike his contemporary Mendel, never supported his theory through the scientific method and cast doubts on it himself. Yet he is an icon of evolution, like another contemporary, a lawyer named George Lyell, who came up with the totally fictional Geologic Column.
      .
      The GC exists only in art work. The real evidence? Fossils are jumbled, in no neatly organized pattern whatsoever. There really are no such things as Cambrian, Jurassic, and so on "periods." Like the GC those are just fictions presented as facts. Giant shark fossils are found with dino fossils in Montana, for ex. Whales' fossils are found in wildly improbable places like the Andes mountains, the Sahara and a desert in Chile. Deep sea "Cambrian" fossils, such as sea shells and mollusks, are found at every level on the planet, including on most mountain tops - like the world's highest, the Himalayans. Fossils of ocean floor trilobites are found in the hills of mid America and countless other places world wide, high and far inland.
      .
      Take a look. Notice the brown, somewhat egg shaped, fossil on a grayish background in the middle, 2nd row. That is an ocean floor dwelling, extinct, trilobite. www.bing.com/images/search?q=Marine+Fossils+On+Mountains&FORM=RESTAB ) Now some claim "plate tectonics" moved those vast stretches of ocean dwelling, bottom floor, marine life fossils onto the tops of mountains over millions of years, completely intact. There is no ev-i-dence for that idea. It's just another theory presented a as fact, that defies common sense and the laws of physics. Millions of purported years of mass movement and erosion would have left those huge stretches of intact fossil beds as nothing but broken up rubble in such a - completely unverified and unverifiable - trek from the ocean depths to mountain tops.
      .
      Yet some claim, "Well, if there are whale fossils in the Sahara, and Nautilus fosssils in the Grand Canyon, etc. that shows an ocean was present." When was the last time anyone saw fossils form in the oceans? Oceans don't create fossils! Fossils are created when life forms are rapidly buried with water and sediment. That way no animals can eat them, natural forces can't erode them, and the chemistry of fossilization can begin
      .
      The Bible says that flood waters completely covered the whole earth. The fossil record shows that marine life fossils are at every level on the planet, everywhere around the globe, and that, in fact, over 75% of the fossils on land are marine. And they say the Bible is not historical and not backed by science. And btw there are almost 300 Great Flood legends around the world. The one by the Aborigines of Austrailia is virtually identical to what the Bible reports.
      .
      So you've been told a book showed the origin of species, but it didn't. You've been told G.I. animals show evolution but they only show they are having, at most, minimal changes that leave them basically what they were before.
      .
      You were told there is a Geological Column, but there is not one on the planet. You're told over and over that natural selection shows evoutionism when it actually just somewhat modifies the organism through shifting already present information, or sometimes through loss of information, in the genomes, leaving it essentially what it was before. It may eventually become a new species of fish, or bee, or tree, etc., but it will always stay a fish, a bee or a tree etc.
      .
      And, if you've got any actual data to show any mutation ever caused Lifeform A to turn into Lifeform B, do include it. It is easy to present unverifiable theories about what happened in the untestable, ancient, past.
      .
      We have trillions of life forms out there. So why don't we see mutations causing any Lifeform A to turn into a Lifeform B? After all, their ancestors have supposedly had hundreds of millions of Darwin years to make the switch and be moving around as part A and part B. But fish are staying fish, birds and are staying birds, flowers are staying flowers, mold is staying mold, trees are staying trees, monkeys are staying monkeys, bacteria are staying bacteria, etc., no matter how much they change. In the real world.
      .
      What else does evolutionism offer besides unsubstantiated theories, in fact theories that defy the real evidence, presented as facts? Logical fallacies. Logical fallacies always, always, undergird evolutionism defense.
      .
      The favorites are Correlation Does Not Imply Causation and Presuming Omniscience, though it uses many.
      .
      Correlation Does Not Imply Causation goes like this: "Look! Fossil A has some similarities to Fossil B! We'll use big words to sound impressive about that, like 'similar homology.' We have exactly zero evidence Fossil A even had a descendant, much less one significantly different from it, much less that it turned into B, C, D etc. But we are going to tell you, as gawd's truth scientific fact, that we know all about what happened to its evidenceless, unverifiable descendants. We'll call that science."
      .
      This leads right into the Presuming Omniscience logical fallacy. Another example of a use of that fallacy is when an evolutionary paleontologist will pick up a fossil from the ground and tell you with absolute authority that they know all about what happened to it's invisible "descendants" in the untestable past - for over 100 million Darwin years.
      .
      "Missing links" is a Presuming Omniscience logical fallacy phrase. How do you tell missing links from never existed links? Have...faith...brothers and sisters! And be so grateful that YOU ain't religious!
      .
      Learn how to spot logical fallacies and you will see them in every defense in evolutionary literature.
      .
      Ignoring the actual data is also part of evolutionism. For just one of innumerable examples, they say life can come from inorganic matter (and don't say they do not - who came up with the antiscientific primal pond, creationists?) The data, what real science uses, shows life, always and only, comes from life and life of the same kind.
      .
      Pile theories presented as facts on top of logical fallacies, ignore the real data or try to spin it away, and stir well with sophistry. Then you have evolutionary theory.
      .
      You're not a fish update. You have a Creator Who made you and loves you and wants you to know Him, and to love Him too. Don't trade that in for pseudo science mumbo jumbo.

    It is amazing seeing Darwin starting to piece things together as he is writing the Voyage of the Beagle. He didn't have two thoughts about it til he got to the Falkland Islands when he started questioning what controls the population of species on the islands. then he just breaks into a random rant about it. Makes me wonder how far ecology was at that time or if he neglected studying it in depth while he was studying to become a geologist.

    Darwin is the person we associate with Evolution but Alfred Russell Wallace also came to the exact same conclusion around the same time and it was his correspondence with Darwin that sort of forced Darwin's hand to publish when he did so as to be the first one to publish. The fact of evolution was becoming so evident to those looking at the natural world that it was certain that someone would bring it up and show the evidence sooner or later.

    My hypothesis of mass extinction/evolution is that when the earth's magnetic field dissipates and begins a new and in conjunction with the sun being in solar maximum it can activate dna in species which can significantly change it's appearance, activities and the way it survives (along with many other things). The waves, rays and debris allowed in by a lack of magnetic field is what triggers the DNA to alter.

    Are there any underlying fundamental principles to the nature of evolutionary and natural selection? If any are identified, that could be useful in understanding the gaps in our knowledge about biological evolution - very mysterious still.

    Is it possible for there to be multiple sources of life? Like microbes from non earth origin were to enter he primordial ooze and instead of having a family tree coming out of a single seed (the OG of the family tree) it's actually multiple seeds weaving in and out of the tree? Is it possible? Or am I just saying nonsense? (Wonder if they'll read this)

    I have two question: first if humanity gets its priority straightened( i.e. stop worrying who has the biggest land, sea, or air power on this planet) how would the genetic differences of our species be if humans colonized near the center of the galaxy? second when one of the other galaxies collide with this one how distorted will our perception of our universe can you estimate?

      I don't see how a galaxy colliding with ours would impact our perception of the universe, since it has nothing to do with it. When two galaxies collide, they don't change the laws of physics or perceptions ... also, the empty space between the stars is so large, that when they collide, they don't even affect most of the solar systems in those galaxies.
      What do you mean by your first question? When a species moves to another environment it changes it and we could never know how.

    • @solvotumble7280

      "How did those fishes know that they had those spots, that they looked like eyes and that those spots would frighten predators away?"
      They didn't. That's not how evolution works.
      Fish with those spots had a greater survival rate than the same fish without them, so the spotted fish reproduce and create more spotted fish, while those without slowly died off. That one particular type of spot in that one particular place was a random and beneficial mutation.

    Origins - Darwinism and DNA
    I recently watched a video in which Neil deGrasse Tyson talked about Darwin and DNA diversity. In the video Tyson stated that the human embryo has gills that develop into the inner ear later on in the development of the fetus.
    Does all life have gills present in the embryonic stage? If not can the lineage of such animals that develop without gills be traced back to an area when evolutionary change would have determined that life no longer needed gills to breathe? Life that developed in space on the way to Earth could have developed gills inside of the shell to help assist in development. Life developing in this manner though would have taken a very long time to develop as its need to roam a planet had not yet been established. A stasis if you will.
    Also since all life is contained in a fluid in the womb then life would have arrived on Earth in a similar type of fluid to that of the embryonic sack.
    Since all animals need water, except for a few who live in acidic water, then life would have come to Earth encapsulated in shells of water with some sort of embryonic fluid protecting the developing life.The embryo would then have used the water shell as a source of nutrients that it would also use to gather microbial carbon dust bits as it traveled through space and eventually to Earth.
    Since water has been determined to be older than the Earth and that life would not have survived the Earth during its very hot years of forming, a model of the Earth when it first began to too cool to the point of allowing frozen water to slowly melt would be a good start to determine when life was seeded on Earth.
    If life in the modern world that does not develop gills during the embryonic development phase but has so in its lineage during prehistoric times then we can trace the evolution of life on Earth to a point of origins in space as well possibly creating a link between all species that would communicate somehow that we were on Earth and no longer needed gills during the development stage. Gills that suggest that primordial life at one time was sentient in the womb and thought for itself and needed to breathe the womb fluid until the umbilical cord of the mother was later introduced when the first male and female species mated and had offspring.
    Life on Earth would not have had the prerequisites for gills once the water melted on Earth containing the embryo's. Life that came to Earth must therefore have developed gills as a means of breathing while on the way to Earth.

Together they combine to make, I think, off the top of my unreliable head, the single most common compound in the universe: H2O. A quick search turned up Hydrogen and Oxygen as first and third most common elements in the universe, and confirmed H2O is the most common compound.
      In short, it's kind of like trying to find dust on your floor.

      The idea behind this is LUCA or Last Universal Common Ancestor. Since there is only one genetic code shared by all life, all life is presumed to be related to a single ancestor.
      Of course there is no accounting for how that code came to be. As stated in a recent paper "(the null hypothesis that they are due to chance coupled with presumable evolutionary pathways is rejected with P-value < 10-13)."

    LOGICAL ARGUMENTS FOR THE EXISTENCE OF A CREATOR GOD
    For those struggling with the concept of the existence of a CREATOR GOD and who do not want it rammed down your throat on the basis of the BLIND FAITH approach of religious dogma, perhaps this line of reasoning will help you make a more informed decision…not based on blind faith alone but on the FACTS that we do SEE.
    Speaking as a TRIAL LAWYER of thirty years and accustomed to always relying upon the BEST EVIDENCE, I have studied the arguments for and against the existence of a CREATOR GOD for many years and from the perspective of various scientific disciplines. There will still be some element of BLIND FAITH involved but it is also based on the INCONTROVERTIBLE, UNDENIABLE and IRREFUTABLE FACTS that we do see;
    Here is what I mean;
    I examined the EVIDENCE of the complexity of our magnificent DESIGN OF LIFE, and I see a machine with unlimited capacity for self repair and maintenance and with numerous back-up and FAIL SAFE systems. From there, and borrowing an expression from my thirty years as a trial lawyer, I came to the conclusion that;
    Based on the PREPONDERANCE OF EVIDENCE and on the BALANCE OF PROBABILITIES, it is much more LOGICAL to conclude that our DESIGN OF LIFE is the work of a CREATOR GOD or an INTELLIGENT DESIGNER rather then just the result of RANDOM chance and the mere passage of time.
    For example, when you examine our INNATE IMMUNE SYSTEM, one of TWO such systems that we have, the other being the ADAPTIVE immune system, you learn that it takes on average twenty (20 ) separate, distinct chronological steps, executed in perfect SEQUENCE, to illicit even one immune response. If a major system, like the LYMPH system FOR EXAMPLE, fails to eliminate lymph fluid in its normal way, it is backed up by a hidden fail-safe system which we are not even aware of and which will kick in and allow LYMPH to excrete through the skin.
    It makes no sense that such a complex DESIGN OF LIFE is merely the result of RANDOM CHANCE.
    What do the ‘evolutionist’ theorists want us to believe ? That a bolt of lightening hit a pile of doo-doo four billion years ago…and BINGO…here we are ? This is patent NONSENSE and violates plain COMMON SENSE. The MAIN arguments in the theory of EVOLUTION are so fragile that they can be dismissed with this simple argument;
    If EVOLUTION alone explains our existence then how come APES are still swinging in the trees ?Thee is no valid or convincing answer for this FLAGRANT CONTRADICTION within that ‘ theory’. President Johnson once said; ‘ you cannot SUCK and BLOW at the same time’ . Either we ‘ evolved’ from the more primitive APES or we did not. The fact that APES still exist or that they did not build skyscrapers before we did…cannot be explained by this theory unless they come up with another tortured and convoluted « exception « . There are MANY more examples of FLAWS in this theory or caveats but this is one alone is enough to discredit it.
    Another way to make this conclusion is to take a more enlightened view of the Universe as a whole and by saying; We are no longer primitive camel drivers and sheep herders. We can accept the concept that the GOD who created us or the INTELLIGENT DESIGNER is a real and physical being, possibly the leader of a very advanced civilization who did genetically create us in his OWN IMAGE…as it says. This means that our CREATOR GOD probably is a real, physical and tangible being and not some mystical, imaginary or intangible entity.
    I hope that this line of reasoning helps some of you to resolve this issue and to accept the idea that it is much more LOGICAL to conclude for the existence of a REAL and tangible CREATOR GOD then to think we are just an « accident » of time.
