Storage: The Holy Grail for Sustainable Energy
Переглядів 3555 років тому
For the world to transition to a clean and sustainable energy system, storage of wind and solar power (that is reliable, long term and low- cost storage) is an absolute must. Otherwise, the variability of the electricity from wind sources (the wind doesn’t always blow) and solar (the sun doesn’t always shine) is a deal-killer. Oxford PhD and Quartz journalist Akshat Rathi gives an overview of t...

Why Evolution is True and Why Most Americans Reject It

    Darwin never used the word evolution. You do. There was no animal life preexisting the Cambrian Explosion. Darwin would conclude he failed . You are conflating evolution with natural selection. Get over the religous zealotry. You actually use the term “believe,” you don’t vote on “truth.”

    If you have not already selected a camp between religion or science, the confrontational language used by the speaker does little to move you to his side. I found myself responding to his intellectually chauvinistic attitude more than the reasonable information he had to give. Science is supposed to be apolitical, but this seemed more like propaganda than true edification.

    I had an encounter with God 3 times in my Life. One time is literally impossible to explain, unless there is literally an X-men gene that allowed a Christian sister to read my mind. NO ONE, EVER, can explain how a Christian sister told me how I was feeling and thought about myself. It was a specific thought and feeling, I NEVER shared with anyone. It wasn't something that I was projecting or anything like this. These were very specific words, as if someone opened up my brain and told me EXACTLY what I was thinking. So please spare me the idea it was all in my head, it wasn't, sorry for your disbelief. You have to understand that Christians ACTUALLY have supernatural events happen in their life that prove Jesus. I am sorry you want to dismiss this, but the fact is this world is not just plain and all we see. There are people who ACTUALLY experience the unexplainable and evolutionists are just putting their head in the sand each time this is brought up. Maybe if you all humbled yourself, not in a "God you do this, or I won't believe in you" (that isn't how God responds, sorry) you all would have an encounter with the Living God as well. In the end, I have nothing to lose when I die. I can't say the same for those who continue to want to put their head in the sand and refuse to look at what Christians present. Without Faith, you will never find God.

    If there is no ontology, no pattern, then how did it all randomly arrive to be fine tuned and mathematically accurate. If mathematics and natural law produced and guided it that does not explain their origin. There is speculation in the new physics that all is consciousness, matter being condensed consciousness with mind a play of ideas on substance, or consciousness. Mind emerging with quantum events is plausible.. Evolution from this perspective would make sense. Consciousness emerging with quantum events would subject consciousness to the same limitations as mind which would appear to be inaccurate. Little wonder it is the hard problem.

    • @MEvegasRealtor
      @MEvegasRealtor 2 місяці тому

      It didn't arrive "fine tuned and mathematically accurate", if I'm understanding what you're saying correctly. Evolution murdered a whole bunch of "not finely tuned and mathematically inaccurate" ATTEMPTS at evolution through its process of natural selection. One gene mutated incorrectly (and not in a finely tuned way) and that creature developed no legs. Then, it was eaten by a predator, and didn't pass on its genes. The basics of resource allocation (as a simple/quick example) shows why it would INITIALLY diverge. If a pool of (I'm OVERLY simplifying here) bacteria runs out of food, then natural selection would benefit those bacteria that mutated the ability to MOVE to find MORE food, thus creating the cause for a change in the genome, and those that RANDOMLY mutated the ability to move would excel at reproduction, and their genes would be passed on to future generations, thus leading to now 2 distinct and separate bacterial genomes. Hope that helps you out in your search friend.

    Using “evolution” by itself is deceptive. What kind of evolution? Evolution by natural selection is on its last legs. However evolution is difficult to deny. Almost all interspecies evolution has to do with timing, not novel protein changes. There is no proof of entire groups producing novel changes of chromosome pairs in a manner that could produce a novel species.

What is it the Romans say? If you have been proven a liar once.. everything you say is worthless. Point in fact.. actually truth. Charles Darwin was in fact a Free Mason. Free Mason's believe in a higher power or they willingly accept the punishment of Death. If Darwin was a Mason he believed in a higher power. Therefore, he was in fact not an Atheist. Actually, The Masonic Bible directly describes Atheist as vile idiots and unworthy as they believe what they are told. By thier famous misleader. What else do they say.. if your dumb enough to be mislead.. then be mislead. Wake up. Its simple. Watch this again. He literally repeatively says.. this is my (????)

    He is either knowingly deceiving people, or he is so uninformed that he shouldn’t even be a professor in a high school. First of all right in the beginning he uses switch bait language. Conflating the regular term theory with what scientific theory. He talked about the fossil record as showing gradually more complexity, while completely ignoring the Cambrian explosion as that is totally contradictory to what evolution would have predicted. All of the changes were so big and fast, and didn’t show slow progression. It’s why Stephen j Gould came up with the theory of punctuated equilibrium, to explain the sudden changes instead of gradual changes. Then he goes on into the horse evolution which was proven false over 50 years ago. Then he claims that no modern bird has teeth, while there are birds that have teeth. On the talk of vestigial parts, he is either completely unqualified or misleading, as those bone are necessary to support the reproductive organs, and without those the animals would not be able to reproduce, and so they are definitely not vestigial. Is this the best he’s got? because it is ridiculously pathetic so far. If I was an evolutionist, I would be deeply embarrassed by this talk

Btw, Mr Burnham, Mme Verdurin marries the Prince de Guermantes, not the Duc of the same name. Gide was on the editorial board of the Nouvelle Revue Française, and rejected the book, the first volume being published at Proust's expense by Bernard Grasset. Gide then realised his mistake, and begged to take over publication for the NRF, and Grasset, I believe, was bought out of his contract with Proust, or graciously relinquished it.

    I respect you for respecting evidence. Most creationists accept micro-evolution. In our every day life, we see or hear about the mutations and variations of the bacteria or viruses. Some creationists even accept macro-evolution. I do not understand why you put evolution and creationism incompatible? Teaching about the Creator, the Intelligent Designer and scientific study can go together. My problem about the theory of evolution is not evolution itself. I acknowledge that there seem to be lots of evidence of evolution like the developments of embryos and vestigial organs in whales. But I also recognize that, at least for many thousand years, a peppered moth is always a moth whether they are white or gray. A virus is always a virus not a human being. Even tiger-colored butterfly is always a butterfly not a tiger. If evolution is gradual and continuous, why is there no evidence of continuous evolution? Why are there a lot of evidence for discontinuity and gaps? Why is the so called simple organism so complicated like the structure of a cell and DNA. The most critical problem for me is natural selection or random mutation. For example, some scientists argue that a stone became a house with flushing and electrical systems after 3 billion years. It may be true. My point is that a stone became a house by somebody rather than by natural selection or random mutation. Every computer program is made by the computer programmer. It is much more scientific and intellectual to explain the world in terms of Intelligent Design. Natural selection or random mutation is too poor to be a scientific term. Not because of scientific evidence but because of naturalism and materialism in our culture, Intelligent Design is suppressed and persecuted in many scientific communities. Finally God will vindicate the true science while God will destroy fake science and false ideology. Hallelujah! Praise God! We don't need God? What a fool. Only fools say in their hearts, "there is no God." To fear God is the beginning of true science, wisdom, and life.

      If you understand how early small mammals could evolve both in wolves, horses, apes and whales, you merely have to go back in the evolutionary lineage to earlier and simpler animals which evolved to those creatures which led to those we know today. It is all in the fossil record. Mutations are random. Natural selection is not. Those individuals which are slightly different from others, but have traits which improve probability of survival and have fertile offspring may some day become a start of a new species. That's all. And no, there is no divine intervention in this process.

      Nobody is attempting to state that an inanimate object became a living, breathing creature (i.e. your rock example). That is, by definition, a straw man argument. Instead, since humans (for a super simplified answer) share 50% of their genetic genome with a mushroom indicates a certain percentage likelihood that we both descended from a shared ancestor. Why else would we share ANY DNA whatsoever? Sure, 50% is a huge difference (chimps and humans are something like 1.2% different), but the logical approach to this indicates that mushrooms are 50% different than humans in DNA, and chimps are 1.2% different, thus conclusion is that chimps and humans are MUCH closer on the genomic tree than humans and mushrooms. If you go from initial reptiles, for example, and compare genetic codes to chickens, they are very different. Over time, they grow slowly closer and closer and closer (your question about "gradual and continuous is answered here) which is where the theory came from, and finds its strength/evidence. Simple answer: hope it helped.

    Every single day of your 21st century lives you utilize modern technology that has been intelligently designed and engineered, never ever do you question that as you understand complexity and information necessitates it. A single cell in comparison to the same technologies you use, including the one you have used to access this UA-cam channel is orders of magnitude more complex and contains specified information throughout its New York like city construction. That a person who is not blinded by an insanely flawed paradigm seems to think evolution is exempt from a daily observation simply because it removes God from the equation, is proof of just how desperate the evolution theory is. That people with brains actually think an unguided random process can solve real world problems like flight, in the real world of non fantasy this requires an enormous amount of knowledge, information, engineering, and construction expertise to achieve. But not in Narnia evolution land, here fantasy billions of years can solve anything, no need for an understanding of physics, math, aerodynamics, or engineering, nope cell mutation chucking random dice and hoping for the best is all that's needed. God solves all chicken and egg situations from the macro to the micro, whereas evolution has zero answers and ironically a much larger appeal to 'Fantasy'. Everything comes from nothing, inanimate matter becomes life, then goes on to construct the most complex code in existence, and that's not 'MAGIC'?

    There are so many great actors and actresses, its always been bizarre that one can select just one and say he was the greatest. Surely he was up there with the best. Possibly what turned us off to the guy was his off stage life and abuse of other people. Nobody should get a pass on that.

      He did NOT abuse others. He was gentle and respectful even with people who were bad to him like Frank Sinatra.

      His wife Anna kashfi LIED and married him and he should have thrashed her but she writes a book saying Marlon ruined her. The fact that he remained married to her for almost a year and nursed her through tuberculosis in the hospital for ten months.. The t.. T forgot than. She was so ugly how did he bear the torture of having her around.

    So how did the woodpecker eat until it had a shock absorber in its head?

      I guess that initially it ate some other food too, but some tried pecking on wood and those which didn't get a brain damage from it found more food and could reproduce better. Eventually their offspring began to be specialists which no other bird could compete for the same food and they became a separate species.
