I can watch these vids along with Sagan and Dawkins all day long. Thanks for the contributions to general curiosity in higher academia. I'm studying to be an electrical engineer and get plenty of good ole physics, but am also fascinated by evolutionary biology.
Suppose one day we did not have to say 'somehow'? Are you pinning all your hope on this one mystery or if this one is solved one day will that finally be enough for you? The wall of the unexplainable continues to be pushed back. How much will you push back?
The way he explains it. It certainly is. No, we don’t know and currently you are correct. It is impossible. But, what if progress on the problem continues to be made and one day a breakthrough happens - just for a second suppose it does - what will you say then?
When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful, a miracle, it was beautiful, magical And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, joyfully, playfully, watching me But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible, logical, responsible, practical And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, clinical, intellectual, cynical......
The very essence of life is fascinating... The fact that atomic structures of non-living matter were able to, by chance, assemble into self-replicating chains of chemical reactions is truly magnificent.
there is a show if you want, it's called "where did we com e from" it's part of a series called "through the worm hole" it goes into more detail as to the stuff that this video is talking about. this isn't a joke, it's based on what we find in the rocks, one of the places where we find info on early life is the "cambrian explosion" look it up, the critters were awesome.
Unfortunately, words like "somehow" or "once the cells learned how to protect itself" kind of leave huge gaping holes in the answer to the question "How?"
The evidence shows the "how" was chemistry and evolution. This video is a very high-level summary. The detailed answers are contained in scientific papers, most of which are available to the public.
Once you have self replication the method of learning is easy. It's prototyping on a massive scale, same way all evolution works. This applies to advanced tricks, like protecting the hox genes and letting the others vairy. Early life had an extra trick, not generally available to higher life, horizontal gene transfer.
onsaphi Nice. So wrong on every point...except the dying part, which any ancient goat herder would have known. Have any nice palm tree recipes to share?
So I noticed something in this that I knew but never thought about before, oxygen was once poisonous to all life, it was a gas that killed a huge amount of organisms as it became more prevalent until they adapted to it. Well what if the future of life on earth lives off something other than oxygen? What if all the harmful stuff going into the ozone that will one day be the downfall of man if not solved is actually setting up the basis for life in the future? Yes it seems unlikely that life would one day live off something other than oxygen, but with massive deforestation still going on, and carbon emissions still at or near all time highs it could turn into an adapt or die scenario. It's just a thought, and it might be way off base because it's not like I've been researching evolution for years or anything, but if it's happened before it seems like it could happen again.
That was an interesting read. Which also makes you wonder what other life in the universe lives off of. Unless we got lucky and hit the ultimate lottery of having life evolve on a planet. Only life in the universe, highly unlikely. "Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying." Arthur C. Clarke
You didn't mention how the first vertebrates started. I've heard that vertebrates come from the sponge lava. It developed a stiff inner bracing inside and along it's body. And internal skeletons came from that.
This video is such a wonderfully generalized representation of the Geological Record and the events that took (and are still taking and to take place) place within.
This "information" you're referring to is characterized by how the molecules in the various nucleotides (which are monomers that make up the polymer of nucleic acids like DNA) chemically behave (involving electrons in the formation and breakage of bonds). There are distinct shapes that arise from bonding (linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal bipyramid, octahedral, etc) and these shapes are what represent information.
You don't even know what a straw man argument is. What argument did you make? That you can spell LOLOL or that you can copy and paste? You are a legend only in your own mind, mate.
It's important that words such as ‘Evolution’ be used accurately & consistently. The theory of ‘Evo’ that the evolutionists are really promoting is the idea that particles turned into people over time, without any need for an intelligent Designer. The evolutionist Kerkut accurately defined this ‘general theory of Evolution’ (GTE) as ‘the theory that all the living forms in the world have arisen from a single source which itself came from an inorganic form.’ That's what the video above is about!
Hi mtbee9, many thanks for the reply - but, who has pulled the Hoax apart? I would be really interested in reading the material. After you have supplied the details, I would like you to answer a very basic question. Organisms select from existing genetic traits, so no matter how they adapt and change, they remain the same organism. Where has anyone observed an increase in genetic info that allows one organism to become a completely different organism? Not speciation, but fish to frog changes.
"intermediate between the two" means that this is a transitional fossil between fish and tetrapods. The Kenichthys had traits that are characteristic of both fish and tetrapods.
i started thinking about religion and questioning it i was;nt denying it but i was connecting the dots with the storys and all the concepts that didn't make sense. I was very confused and became depressed because i was scared of thinking for myself.Then i got into 10th grade biology class. What a class i learned about everything life the plants the humans the space the genetics the dna the structure of the human body and much more. I started questioning it more and more until 1 day.
The difference between micro and macro is this: Micro involves the individual mutating of a single gene which does not restructure the chromosome. Macro involves the entire restructuring of the chromosome all at once, which is not a gradual process. A chromosomal restructuring would be considered PART of macro evolution, but not the whole part. You need: 1. Chromosomal restructurings. 2. Morphological evolution. 3. And finally, and most importantly, biochemical macro evolution.
There were once considered to be 180 vestigial organs (organs of no use that evolutionists use to say we evolved out of). Today, there are medically regarded as being no vestigial organs. For example, the appendix is noted as able to fight infection in early life and tonsils destroy harmful bacteria. ([4], p.112)
Where there is evidence, no one speaks of 'faith'. We do not speak of faith that two and two are four or that the earth is round. We only speak of faith when we wish to substitute emotion for evidence.
I think it is basically about the most important part which you skipped with high finesse ;). The point in the very beginning where you say: “Then when the storm cleared there was something new. A cell which has the ability to ... etc” This is the point worth discussing, the rest of the video is based on the ultimate resolution of this point. If you have an explanation to this point please do share or else this is just another beautifully made video with nothing new. Thanks.
Kenichthys is a genus of sarcopterygian fish. The term comes from the Latin genus meaning "descent, family, type, gender." One living sarcopterygian is the coelacanth which was thought to have gone extinct 65 million years ago, but they are still happily swimming around today. The first one was caught off the coast of Africa in 1938.
Here is some stuff copypasted from a site on transitional fossils: "Most fish have anterior and posterior external nostrils. In tetrapods, the posterior nostril is replaced by the choana, an internal nostril opening into the roof of the mouth. Kenichthys, a 395-million-year-old fossil from China, is exactly intermediate between the two, having nostrils at the margin of the upper jaw (Zhu and Ahlberg 2004)."
(أَوَلَمْ يَرَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَنَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ كَانَتَا رَتْقًا فَفَتَقْنَاهُمَا وَجَعَلْنَا (مِنَ) الْمَاء كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَيٍّ أَفَلا يُؤْمِنُونَ) إذا الحياة بدأت من الماء ، سبحان الله
Rainbows, mountains, valleys, the process of birth, flowers, the smell of flowers, thousands of unique animals with specific traits, stars in the sky, the complexity of the planet earth itself, the fact that any given seed pretty much looks the same, yet they each can grow millions of different products, the process of caterpillar to butterfly, the HUMAN BRAIN, and on and on. It is all right there in front of you, and you simply do not see it.
@gamesbok Thank you for the comment, however, the following must be straightened out in order not to confuse readers with what really was produced in Lab: 1- Eckard Wimmer, who led the study, denies that he has created life. "No, I would not say I created life in a test tube," Wimmer said in a telephone interview. "We created a chemical in a test tube that, when put into cells, begins to behave a little bit like something alive. Some people say viruses are chemicals and I belong to that group"
What do you mean? I just corrected him that things like butterflies didn't come up by chance, it evolved by natural selection. All of the things he said can be explained by science.
Yes Trilobites were an abrupt apperance. 7 million years actually (if you call that abrupt). What started this chain reaction is increased levels of oxygen in the atmosphere. Presures of predior vs pray, search for food, ect. was the following driving force of the explosion. You asked for an animal from the cambrian that exist today. While Pikaia is not the direct decendent of virterbrates, it is however a close decendent. Namacalathus are some of the eailiest calcified metazoans (Animals).
They are beautiful no matter what you believe. I just will never buy that it all "accidentally" happened. No way all this beauty and creativity just happened. Absolutely no way!!!!
This is a brief summary of the basic concepts of a topic you can spend a couple of lifetimes studying. Don't expect it to put all of your arguments to rest. Understanding the ideas related to evolution is similar to learning to ride a bike. You can't get it and are convinced you never will... until you can, and once you can, it's a breeze. Keep reading, watching and thinking and I promise you'll get it.
5. "The charge of circular reasoning which has been lodged against the critically important paleontological evidence of evolution is not simply to be laughed off or ignored as evolutionists too commonly attempt to do. It quite plainly involves the presupposition of evolution, with numerous involved deductions based on that premise.
@transtlantic *How the earth was formed: asteroids bumping into eachother* Playing marbles does not cause order. Have u ever played that game before? When play'n pool 1 starts with order then the "bumping into eachother" brings disorder from order. The only way this can bring order is to play at reverse, start from the end of game (end of time) then procede to the beginning of game (beginning of time). Then you're have order from disorder. Are we living in reverse?
there are fish with elbows, ones that live in conditions where fins just were not strong enough to help them move, like seaweed or fresh water wetlands, there the fin gets stronger and starts looking like an arm with a fin on the end, from there, the hands develop, some have been found with 7 -10 finger set ups. a well known one was called tiktaalik, eyes on top of his head, gills, scales, and "proto limbs"
@transtlantic *if events of the past left marks, you can infer what happened.* You say I'm "ignoring this fact" but you said the samething I said, just worded differently. "if events of the past left marks", such as news papers, books (Bible), paintings on cave walls, documents, cities unearthed, these such forms of witnesses, "you can infer what happened."
Trilobite decline is attributable to their physiological limitations and their inefficient moulting. Unlike modern crustaceans they didn't reabsorb useful shell minerals and split their exoskeletons neatly along standard sutures & so were highly vulnerable to increased predation as ocean temperatures changed. Trilobites beautifully illustrate the complete absence of intelligent design.
This is the meaning of "evolve" according to Webster's dictionary in 1828, before the Church of Evolution got started: Evolve: 1. To unfold; to open and expand. 2. To throw out; to emit. Nothing about "change" there. So you see, adherents of the Church of Evolution have tried to make words mean something than their original meaning to support their doctrines, much as the Catholic Church does with transubstantiation and other doctrines. Neither has observed evidence for their faith.
Umm, I was the one who posted the comment about this, and it was to someone else. You barged into the conversation like you know all about it, when you obviously have no clue. The Lenski experiments with bacteria have been going on for 22 years. Each human generation currently is around 20 years. That means this would correspondingly show 1,000,000 years of human "evolution". Now that you have some modicum of knowlege about the subject, feel free to post more.
He is controversial according to most other paleornithologists: "However, it (his work on the Arch) received very negative reviews from several paleontologists".
bro doodelay ur 3rd question's answer is a complete "NO" since fertilizin and antifertilizin of chimps and humans are completely species specific so there is no chance of Offspring!! Other statements are 100% correct. Hats Off to ur knowledge man :)
@transtlantic yes it is, I am not asking you about the mechanisms and whether they are the same as your supposed macro evolution. I am asking you if antibiotic resistance is an observed instance of micro or macro evolution, which is it?
This 'abrupt' appearance took millions of years, and by 'complex' we mean new for the time and FYI todays creatures are alot more complex, just because the trilobites developed extreme eyes doesnt mean they were more advanced than other species, they didnt develop much in other ways which is probably why they died out
@Backtothebibleminist Epilepsy is a neurological disorder arising from a chemical imbalance within the brain and should not be confused with mental illness or insanity.
happy to edjucate u here :) lenski is doing great work in micro evolution. the dna code is amazing. macroevolution is the problem. great hypothesis. not proved. God's best
thanks for the quick reply Tyrone. you know how many fish get eaten as eggs and minnows by there own parents, babies of all species are eaten in great quantities. mostly its survival of the luckiest.
@transtlantic Can you answer my question on antibiotic resistance , is it micro or macro, give me a one word answer saying whether it is micro or macro,which is it?
entertaining vids, they dont prove that a designer wasnt involved. check out "creatures that defy evolution" please do vids on them. thanks and God's best
LOL. Evolution is a theory. Trouble is people think the term "theory" means its merely an idea. "Theory" when used in a scientific sense means supported by evidence. Same way as the law of gravity is a theory. You're right about creationism. Creationism is about faith, which means no thinking is involved.
Do you know the minimal Amino acids required for a lifeform(Types of amino acids) ? did the amino acids in the experiment last long or divide or evolve into somthing else ? that experiment as I said would be about the equivalent to a muddy pothole on a dirt road drying up & getting hard like adobe cause maybe some grass blew into it & you said you have bricks(the building blocks for a building) & then saying a building could make itself w/ electricity/plumbing/windows properly placed(not a cave)
"Natural selection is the gradual, NON-RANDOM process by which biological traits become either more or less common in a population as a function of differential reproduction of their bearers. It is a key mechanism of evolution." ...that's wiki's definition, as well put as any.
Yeah, but there is a difference between the old coelacanth and the modern one. "The modern coelacanth is Latimeria chalumnae, in the family Latimeriidae. Fossil coelacanths are in other families, mostly Coelacanthidae, and are significantly different in that they are smaller and lack certain internal structures. Latimeria has no fossil record, so it cannot be a living fossil." And even if it was the same coelacanth it would still be a transitional form.
You are badly mistaken. Speciation and Genetic Drift involves changes in frequency of an allele (gene variant) in a population due to selective processes. This always involves a loss of information in the genome for niche accomplishment. Evolution requires an increase of information in the genome to generate new adaptive structures with supportive coefficiencies. Name one observed instance where any living organism has been shown to exhibit this phenomenon? Dawkins can't, but I bet you can, huh?
I can watch these vids along with Sagan and Dawkins all day long.
Thanks for the contributions to general curiosity in higher academia.
I'm studying to be an electrical engineer and get plenty of good ole physics, but am also fascinated by evolutionary biology.
i love how he said somehow 0:30.......
Suppose one day we did not have to say 'somehow'? Are you pinning all your hope on this one mystery or if this one is solved one day will that finally be enough for you? The wall of the unexplainable continues to be pushed back. How much will you push back?
The way he explains it. It certainly is.
No, we don’t know and currently you are correct. It is impossible. But, what if progress on the problem continues to be made and one day a breakthrough happens - just for a second suppose it does - what will you say then?
0:30 somehow?? please explain how life can casually come into existence from dead matter.
It is the religion of science. It requires lots of faith to believe in the unprovable.
Lyle Paulson I agree
We all know life was created by a great invisible sky wizard, science, pzzzzzz!
see we evolved from combination of atoms,atoms are non living matter. so living beings evolved from non living matter
RNA
When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful, a miracle, it was beautiful, magical
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, joyfully, playfully, watching me
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible, logical, responsible, practical
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, clinical, intellectual, cynical......
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. You have restored my faith that other humans have the ability to think logically.
The very essence of life is fascinating... The fact that atomic structures of non-living matter were able to, by chance, assemble into self-replicating chains of chemical reactions is truly magnificent.
Life is so interesting... but it can sometimes be a pain.

The evidence shows the "how" was chemistry and evolution. This video is a very high-level summary. The detailed answers are contained in scientific papers, most of which are available to the public.
Once you have self replication the method of learning is easy. It's prototyping on a massive scale, same way all evolution works. This applies to advanced tricks, like protecting the hox genes and letting the others vairy. Early life had an extra trick, not generally available to higher life, horizontal gene transfer.

You didn't mention how the first vertebrates started. I've heard that vertebrates come from the sponge lava. It developed a stiff inner bracing inside and along it's body. And internal skeletons came from that.
This video looks like a pre-school version of a science lesson, which explains why religious people can't figure it out.
This video is such a wonderfully generalized representation of the Geological Record and the events that took (and are still taking and to take place) place within.

You need to take an Introductory to Biological Science lecture along with Fundamentals of Chemistry, or just jump straight into Biochemistry.
Hey there. Enjoyed the video. At 8:00 the amphibian used as an example is actually a reptile, it's a red headed skink.
This began as a great video on evolution, then just before the end it somehow turned into the begining of Walking With Dinosaurs.
I am in love with this video.

Playing marbles does not cause order. Have u ever played that game before? When play'n pool 1 starts with order then the "bumping into eachother" brings disorder from order.

Are we living in reverse?
there are fish with elbows, ones that live in conditions where fins just were not strong enough to help them move, like seaweed or fresh water wetlands, there the fin gets stronger and starts looking like an arm with a fin on the end, from there, the hands develop, some have been found with 7 -10 finger set ups. a well known one was called tiktaalik, eyes on top of his head, gills, scales, and "proto limbs"

Umm, I was the one who posted the comment about this, and it was to someone else. You barged into the conversation like you know all about it, when you obviously have no clue.
The Lenski experiments with bacteria have been going on for 22 years.
Each human generation currently is around 20 years. That means this would correspondingly show 1,000,000 years of human "evolution".
Now that you have some modicum of knowlege about the subject, feel free to post more.
SCIENCE RULES!!!!
What do you mean? Mutations do add and subtract genetic information.
is this narrated by Tobias Fünke?
I'm sorry, but I trust the centuries of work by our greatest minds more than I trust a single (non-scientist) person such as yourself.
@transtlantic
hey don't get excited, i am just asking you, why do you believe that antibiotic resistance is an example of macro evolution?
He is controversial according to most other paleornithologists: "However, it (his work on the Arch) received very negative reviews from several paleontologists".
Yes its actually very clear.
bro doodelay ur 3rd question's answer is a complete "NO" since fertilizin and antifertilizin of chimps and humans are completely species specific so there is no chance of Offspring!!
Other statements are 100% correct.
Hats Off to ur knowledge man :)
Hmh, what is the definition of word 'information' you are using?
The problem with such a simplified explanation is that it leaves holes big enough to drive a truck through.
@transtlantic
yes it is, I am not asking you about the mechanisms and whether they are the same as your supposed macro evolution.
I am asking you if antibiotic resistance is an observed instance of micro or macro evolution, which is it?
Sorry, was in a bad mood that day... my bad, I'll delete it. :)
@transtlantic
thanks for admitting that you do not believe that antibiotic resistance is macro evolution.
This 'abrupt' appearance took millions of years, and by 'complex' we mean new for the time and FYI todays creatures are alot more complex,
just because the trilobites developed extreme eyes doesnt mean they were more advanced than other species, they didnt develop much in other ways which is probably why they died out
@Backtothebibleminist Epilepsy is a neurological disorder arising from a chemical imbalance within the brain and should not be confused with mental illness or insanity.
Dr. Alan Feduccias view on the matter is highly controversial though. You should have mentioned that.
happy to edjucate u here :) lenski is doing great work in micro evolution. the dna code is amazing. macroevolution is the problem. great hypothesis. not proved. God's best
thanks for the quick reply Tyrone. you know how many fish get eaten as eggs and minnows by there own parents, babies of all species are eaten in great quantities. mostly its survival of the luckiest.
Where's the rest of it?
@transtlantic
Can you answer my question on antibiotic resistance , is it micro or macro, give me a one word answer saying whether it is micro or macro,which is it?
entertaining vids, they dont prove that a designer wasnt involved. check out "creatures that defy evolution" please do vids on them. thanks and God's best
LOL. Evolution is a theory. Trouble is people think the term "theory" means its merely an idea. "Theory" when used in a scientific sense means supported by evidence. Same way as the law of gravity is a theory.
You're right about creationism. Creationism is about faith, which means no thinking is involved.
"when this molecule (the spiral shape) THAT MADE COPIES OF ITSELF... LEARNED TO PROTECT ITSELF". ¿When did life become inteligent? and designed?
Yes. I've already answered this in my reply to Immuuni.
laughter is really needed here, isnt it? God's best, go niners
Do you know the minimal Amino acids required for a lifeform(Types of amino acids) ?
did the amino acids in the experiment last long or divide or evolve into somthing else ?
that experiment as I said would be about the equivalent to a muddy pothole on a dirt road drying up & getting hard like adobe cause maybe some grass blew into it & you said you have bricks(the building blocks for a building) & then saying a building could make itself w/ electricity/plumbing/windows properly placed(not a cave)
"Natural selection is the gradual, NON-RANDOM process by which biological traits become either more or less common in a population as a function of differential reproduction of their bearers. It is a key mechanism of evolution."
...that's wiki's definition, as well put as any.
Yeah, but there is a difference between the old coelacanth and the modern one. "The modern coelacanth is Latimeria chalumnae, in the family Latimeriidae. Fossil coelacanths are in other families, mostly Coelacanthidae, and are significantly different in that they are smaller and lack certain internal structures. Latimeria has no fossil record, so it cannot be a living fossil." And even if it was the same coelacanth it would still be a transitional form.
You poor people. Judgement is coming soon. Wake up. You were created. Everything was.
Maybe. Probably not. And definitely not by your personal god. Cheers.
There's no heaven. It's lights out when you die. Have fun worshipping a lie your whole life.
@TheyCallMeGroucho He's using poetic license, this is clearly a real science video.
Welcome to being a grownup. You make it sound like being intellectual and dependable is negative.
I never though of it this way....
You are badly mistaken. Speciation and Genetic Drift involves changes in frequency of an allele (gene variant) in a population due to selective processes. This always involves a loss of information in the genome for niche accomplishment. Evolution requires an increase of information in the genome to generate new adaptive structures with supportive coefficiencies. Name one observed instance where any living organism has been shown to exhibit this phenomenon? Dawkins can't, but I bet you can, huh?
