@@LigerMan95 1. Race is a non-biological concept, and the idea of "Race and IQ" implying some human beings, due to their skin color, are biologically determined to be on one side of a bell curve or another is scientifically indefensible. Races like Black, Indian, Native American, Asian, and so on do not describe biological trends. If they did, they would be very poor descriptors; phenotype variation in Africa is wider than any other area of humanity. If it is true that IQs on average are lower in Africa, then it is also likely that IQ does not actually have very much to do with phenotype. 2. In order to be old enough to take an IQ test, a human has to already have been socialized to a great degree. As a human grows up, their brain also increases in size, and that extra space is made of connections created through social interaction through other humans. That is how we learn how to communicate, and ultimately how we learn language. Communication beyond instinct (that is, beyond a baby's cry) is necessary in order to have one's IQ tested, and cannot exist without socialization. Because of this, there is no way to get a purely "biological" IQ result. 3. The actual phenotypes that might separate me, someone who was born as a descendant of Europeans, from someone who was born as a descendent of Africans, do not have any demonstrable effect on IQ when other factors are controlled. One of those factors is access to education, which, as it turns out, is a much better determinant of IQ than race. However, the race apologist could argue that access to education is itself determined by the biology of people who are in charge of education in a given region. This would be unlikely. History is a much more powerful determinant, in this case, than biology. Otherwise, why would the highly advanced Malinese or Ethiopian empires ever exist, when both of those places are desperately poor (and therefore, uneducated) now? Why would the Mayans be able to grow crops and create architecture that, in many ways, surpassed concurrent European attempts at the same? Why would early European settlers be dependent on knowledge given to them by Native Americans such as the Haudenosaunee (you may know them as Iroquois) to survive in their early years? Why would the Baghdad House of Wisdom exist? Why would the earliest ocean explorers be Polynesians? If there was a biological determinant for intelligence, we would see a concentration of great works in a certain aspects of humanity. We do not see this until the start of colonialism in the last 500 years of human history, when Europeans began to subsume other parts of the world by force, since they, as a society which had warred with itself and with the arabic world for nearly a millennium, were well-versed in warfare, while other societies, while still having various tools for warfare, also focused on agriculture, architecture, science, and so on. As a result of their efforts to dominate and alter other societies for the worse, societies other than the Europeans suffered. Suddenly, the technological works of Europe far surpassed the rest of the world, because Europe had left very few places other than itself for learning to prosper. (This is where many race apologists will simply throw a temper tantrum, arguing that stating these historical facts is an attack on themselves, or white people, or whatever nonsense. Let us see if my opponent can surprise me by ignoring this urge, and instead replying to the facts given with facts of their own.) 4. The most important thing to know about humans is that we are malleable creatures. That is, largely, what separates us from animals--we are not determined by biology, but rather by society; that is, the other humans that we live with. Even a cursory glance of images from history would evidence this; what argument could possibly be made that the drive that caused humans to create the Sphinx or the Colossus, or the drive that led them to the Crusades, or the drive that led us to land on the Moon, could possibly all come from some biological determinant equivalent to the reflexes of a cat or a dog? 5. Science does not end at the glass lip of a test tube. It can also be used to understand human behavior both on a small scale (psychology) and on a large scale (sociology). It is only by ignoring the evidence of social sciences that we could come to the conclusion that something like IQ has a biological determinant. Of course, many race apologists DO advocate ignoring the social sciences altogether; this is foolish. The scientific method does not become magically inert when it is used to understand human society. 6. The most dangerous thing someone can do is fetishize the symbols or markers of science rather than ensure that the process was followed. In "The Bell Curve," the process was ignored, and lies were distributed. The bases of the scientific method are founded on rigor and peer review, not selectively ignoring scientific adventures which might clash with one's worldview. This is even more dangerous than religion in a sense, because it uses the authoritative voice of science to tell lies science itself does not support. We have seen the effects of this in our own history--see 17th-19th century "scientific" works on race and gender. Any modern reader can see that these are absurd machinations which conveniently benefit the people making them. Why, then, should we allow works like "The Bell Curve" or the idiotic mewlings of Jared Taylor to be treated as anything other than the same? 7. If none of these arguments convince you, "At the public announcement of the completion of a draft map of the human genome (June 2000), Craig Venter, Head of Celera Genomics and chief private scientist involved with the Human Genome Project, claimed that ‘race’ was not a scientifically valid construct."

@@TreyaTheKobold Sounds like you want to have your cake and eat it too. Yes: You can't separate all human species into a perfect 4 groups (Asian, White, Black, Hispanic) Which is the traditional definition of Race on most census like documents. However there is a genetic difference between populations of people that is verifiable. I'll put it to you this way: A rottweiler and a pitbull are both dogs, and have dog DNA, but the .00000001% difference makes a huge difference phenotypically. So you can't argue that its not possible that some populations or sub races of humans would not be more adept for certain things than others, Just as certain dog breeds are more adept at certain things and even more intelligent than other breeds. That's the very process of evolution - environment forcing species to change and generations to adapt genetically. Just use common sense - Even if you took a black guy and made his melanin content exactly the same as a white guy, he still will not look like a white guy. An asian guy does not look like a white guy - and both have similar melanin content. Sociology is sound science at the core, but it quickly devolves into pseudo science. This is not due to a flaw in the scientific method, but rather a flaw in human's ability to comprehend/perceive things. We need tools to see beyond our capable perception and senses, and the tools are flawed most of the time. That's why sociology becomes unreliable because you are dealing with the madness of men, and the tools (surveys) arent perfect. People lie, and interpret questions/statements differently. And you are very wrong - it's proven time and time again that little separates us from the animals. You can take a non-socialized tiger and feed it well, and it will be relatively docile because its having its needs met. You can take a well socialized human and throw them into the situation of the tiger in the wild and they will devolve. You sound very arrogant and anthropocentric to try and think of humans higher than animals, when they aren't. Society is not special to humans, many species and organisms have societal structures. You can take a cat brain, and it is largely similar to a human brain. So while I agree that the argument that the white race is genetically superior is shaky, that still does not mean that sub populations of humans are more or less adept at certain things than others. Liberals and neo marxist took the statement that "Race is not genetically verifiable" and ran with it. Race in the definition of - Asian, White, Black, Hispanic is not verifiable. Race in terms of sub populations of humans is verifiable however, and has real consequences.
Why do race realists have to be everywhere ruining everything? Science shows race isnt real tbh. As for the original comment, Dawkins has some great quotes, i dont think i like him as an individual from what i know, but he has some great quotes, this is one of them
My favorite lyrics are "The story of humans is a story of ideas that shine light into dark corners" and "If you're scientifically literate the world looks very different to you, and that understanding empowers you", both of which are very true. They're so profound and interesting. Makes you think a bit. I absolutely love that. Truly inspiring.
Thank you, my 11 year old self for discovering this beautiful piece of poetry in 2011. For a fifth grader you definitely had a healthy interest in things and you made sure for your following ten years to be full of joy (small part of it is definitely due to this song). And also, thank you John, for creating this powerful, inspiring song! ❤️
Not to be that guy but the quote is “ we can do science, and with it we can prove our lives” while it’s true we can improve our lives with science, proving our existence with science is a lot more deep.
I swear that nothing has changed my life more than the discovery of science. Trying to understand and discover and explore is what makes me feel the most human, it's what makes my inner drives and passion resonate with the neocortex and rid my brain off cognitive dissonances. It's what gives my life connections to other things, thus expanding its meaning in further dimensions. It's what unifies an interprid look to the edge of the universe with my determination to improve humanity.
May Stephen Hawkins rest in peace, we lost a giant among the giants with the world of Astronomy and science late last night and his contributions to our world will not be forgotten along with the pioneers such as Carl Sagan and more. We will never forget him #RIPStephenHawkings
I remember my grandpa asking me in 1st grade what my favorite subject was, and saying science. And it has always been my passion. I earned a degree in ecology/behavior/evolution, and want to work toward a career in wildlife conservation. But I love everything so it's hard for me to choose anything...
The other part of me wants to earn another degree in sustainable permaculture so I can build a little homestead and have a bunch of dogs. Can I have both lives?
I am currently working towards a degree in computer science but I have always been fascinated with physics. I probably won't get a degree in physics, but I will still learn it ;p.
I can't say often enough how much I love what you're doing with their voices. Hearing them sing just fills me with such joy. Most of them have the most beautiful voices already but you bring that out even better. I can't wait to admire your next piece. ^_^
i love this. i absolutely love this. i remember the first time i heard this song , i had a physics exam and i pulled an all-nighter , this song gave me energy :D
No matter field, whether chemistry, physics, astronomy, psychology, physiology, geology, astrophysics, biology, botany, cosmology... All sciences unite the universe, nature, life, the past, present, and future.
I had already bought the album this is from, and absolutely love it. There were some voices I couldn't identify so it was great to see the names to some of the quotes I have been listening to so many times listening to this. Melody Sheep never fail to impress me!
The saddest thing is that somebody, now in the 21st century, had to spell out what science actually is, and how it works. People are actually so scientifically illiterate today that they think science just another belief system, and they compare it to religion in order to lend religious scripture the same viability. It's crazy.
Children are born every day, we breed faster than we die, its just a form of on going education. Reiterating whats already been done and adding new bits weve discovered, im still waiting for new forms of answering old qustions such as birth control/sustainable growth, war/human culling, and avoiding the degeneration of the human species/selective breeding
To be fair, we came out of the dark ages 600 years ago, the industrial revolution started 200 years ago, plastic (one of the most commonly used materials nowadays) was invented 100 years ago, and the internet is around about 20 years old. When you think about it that way, the fact that we've gotten to this stage is pretty damn impressive. Science isn't new, but the concept of it has always been controversial. At least we don't get sentenced to death for practicing it anymore.
i am studying latin and art and i think quantum physics are great and science and philosophy and english and italian literature....gosh i am only 15 i want to learn everythin.i have no time
You are getting a great start. I began when I was 13. I suggest remembering Psychology. I can guarantee you will begin forming bridges between subjects, that on the surface seem unrelated but truly aren't.
This song is really beautiful and shows how bright science and musically inspirations can go together. Almost I had said it sounds "mysterious" :) But it is really impressing through a meaningful carisma.
As many of us watch the "debate" between an intelligent human explorer and a draining anchor on society tomorrow night, please know that if you're scientifically literate, the world looks very different. And that understanding empowers you. There’s real poetry in the real world. Science IS the poetry of reality.
Even after all these years I've been listening to your music, it's still just so magical (little ironic, I guess, considering the material being covered) and amazing. You are just so skilled at this and I love the entire Symphony of Science so much.
Damn that actually sounded awesome ^^ all my favorite inspirations... Carl Sagan, Neil degrasse Tyson, Richard Dawkins, Lawrence Krauss, Stephen Hawking..
Found my way back to you melody sheep after seeing a pbs remake. I loved this when I saw it years ago, and I still love. It's beautiful. It gives me inspiration as an artist and as a human being.
Sometimes I picture me, then the planet im on, then the planet in our system then galaxy.. then further out near the possible edge of the universe.. and then my brain just kinda looses it like a brain freeze without the freeze, then I'm lost for a second and i think about me again... It's really weird. A moment of clarity maybe.
or that one simple yet so profoundly awesome thought we always have once in a while: "holy shit REALITY ACTUALLY randomly came into existence! It actually fucking EXISTS!"
Well, a little autotuning to make him "sing," but yes, I've often been struck when he appears in these videos how he's the scientist who sounds most "like himself," or at least like most of us ever had any opportunity to hear him.
@@felixbeutin9530 Flat Earthers, Anti-Vaxxers, Homophobes, Evolution deniers and the list goes on...... These religions are the main cause of violence and destruction of humanity and ironically they claim that they promote humanity. 🤦♂️
You don't always need to completely understand math to dabble in science. Alessandro Volta actually had pretty poor math skills so when studying electricity he had a hard time grasping the vectors of the electric field. Because of this he came up with electric potential that instead used scalars which made made the math a lot easier. From his concept of electric potential came voltage or a change in electric potential.
I still know the words to some of these even so long after middle school Earth Science class 🥺💕 Shout out to my teacher for showing me these and helping me fall in love with science and our beautiful Earth early on
I wish I could make videos this good. This and other videos of yours on science and tributes to individuals, the hours, days you must have spent composing and gathering the highest quality footage. Where were you able to get such great footage and how did you get around their copyrights? Great job!
I think it's safe to say, that this atom we're living on is quite interesting, but it's not the whole story. Compare Hydrogen to the Earth-Luna System, I see something familiar, do you?
Maxim Semkovič I see a small sphere orbiting another small sphere, looks like the Earth-Luna system to me. And thus, we are actually less than an atom to the Universe.
Well that is where you are wrong. A hydrogen atom is not a small sphere orbiting another small sphere. In fact, an electron doesn't even have dimensions and does not behave like a sphere at all. Maybe I'm being a pedant, but physics is physics.
Maxim Semkovič I'm referring to how it is explained in class. And what I mean is that Earth is nothing to the Universe. So, stop THINKING TOO MUCH! Now, that is a reference to the greatest speech ever made.
KASASpace And I am reacting to your question "Compare Hydrogen to the Earth-Luna System, I see something familiar, do you?" - by saying that I see very little similarities, looking with the eyes of science, which is what is this video about.
Man your work is so wonderful. The music is impeccable and you are a very brilliant person. How I enjoy all your videos. Tank you so much. Kind Regards. 😭💫👀👂🤩😍😍😍❤
I think it's one of the best songs in the series. Besides the great music, the song is the most positive and motivating. When I'm lazy or stuck somewhere I often listen it :).
I remember the last time I heard this song was in 2013 when i was studying for my physics exam.. I got goosebumps now throughout the song.. God I wish I was still the same..
I've just started to read the first 12 pages and already I have learnt so much about the truth, I see it now and now that I know I feel much better and fear a lot less.
The world is so beautiful, and is far more amazing than which we can imagine. "There are more things in heaven and on Earth, than are dreamt of in your philosphy."
My favorite quote in this is by Dawkins: "Science replaces private prejudice with publicly verifiable evidence."
Love this.
Interstellar I use that same argument when debating race and IQ

I remember this being the first video of this series that I ran into, and here I am, back at it again.
i am studying latin and art and i think quantum physics are great and science and philosophy and english and italian literature....gosh i am only 15 i want to learn everythin.i have no time
You are getting a great start. I began when I was 13. I suggest remembering Psychology. I can guarantee you will begin forming bridges between subjects, that on the surface seem unrelated but truly aren't.
Same same...
Just remember, the knologde is infinit, pass from Generation to generations. Do your part, thal all. and wil be very profit to the humanity.
Wow yur liek so smart xD DAE he is so smart look at him HE SMART!!! xD LuL

This song is really beautiful and shows how bright science and musically inspirations can go together. Almost I had said it sounds "mysterious" :) But it is really impressing through a meaningful carisma.
As many of us watch the "debate" between an intelligent human explorer and a draining anchor on society tomorrow night, please know that if you're scientifically literate, the world looks very different. And that understanding empowers you. There’s real poetry in the real world. Science IS the poetry of reality.
the debate was disappointing, was expecting better from the opposition.
The "debate" was interesting, Ken Ham gave some good points, but most of it was pretty unsatisfying.
I first watched this a year ago, and I wanted to revisit it, it's stuck in my head again.
This is so nostalgic to me. My 7th grade science teacher showed this to my class back in middle school. Man that was like 10 years ago.
ALWAYS going to be my Favorite Symphony of Science Song.
2:19 = Favorite part :D
This music is a great way to start the day, inspires me every time.
Science is the Poetry of Reality.
Even after all these years I've been listening to your music, it's still just so magical (little ironic, I guess, considering the material being covered) and amazing. You are just so skilled at this and I love the entire Symphony of Science so much.
Please, more songs like this.
Once I heard and saw who actually sang the part scientists love not knowing I...was SHOCKED. He is one of my favorite theoretical physicists. :)
Im good for another hour of studying.
Never stop my friend.
This has got to be the greatest melodic success of the whole series.
Damn that actually sounded awesome ^^ all my favorite inspirations...
Carl Sagan, Neil degrasse Tyson, Richard Dawkins, Lawrence Krauss, Stephen Hawking..
Who's still here in 2019? Science is the poetry of reality.
SCIENCE is THE POETRY OF REALITY
Aye
We are science heads 😞lol
Let's do it
*FOR SCIENCE*
!
Found my way back to you melody sheep after seeing a pbs remake. I loved this when I saw it years ago, and I still love. It's beautiful. It gives me inspiration as an artist and as a human being.
This is the Best song ever made in the history my teacher is the nicest ever for showing me this
Sometimes I picture me, then the planet im on, then the planet in our system then galaxy.. then further out near the possible edge of the universe.. and then my brain just kinda looses it like a brain freeze without the freeze, then I'm lost for a second and i think about me again... It's really weird. A moment of clarity maybe.
Edge of the VISIBLE universe*.
or that one simple yet so profoundly awesome thought we always have once in a while: "holy shit REALITY ACTUALLY randomly came into existence! It actually fucking EXISTS!"
There's a larger universal reality
of which we are all a part
Bardzo dobra prezentacja.
bellooooooooo,bravo!!
buon finesettimana...
oltreilconfine
Anche a te.....
Really impressed by their scientific and vocal/musical prowess!
Carl Sagan Is My Favorite!
I keep forgetting to show these to my old science teacher. I'm pretty sure he'd like them.
i`m proud that i love Science , and i am A Scientist. to serve our Greatest Mother.
"Science is a collaborative enterprise
Spanning the generations
We remember those who prepared the way
Seeing for them also"
My favourite part
Anyone watching it in 2023??
I used to study while listening to this 🤣🔥
Me.
@@fredysaxo Same.
2024 🥳
2024♥️
This gives me the inspiration to do well in my calculus I class, even though I got an F on the first exam haha
You didn't even have to do anything to Hawking's voice.
Well, a little autotuning to make him "sing," but yes, I've often been struck when he appears in these videos how he's the scientist who sounds most "like himself," or at least like most of us ever had any opportunity to hear him.
Melodysheep I absolutely love your vids. So inspiring, thank you!
I LOVE THIS!
"Science replaces private prejudice with publicly verifiable evidence" AMEN
I always come here after having religious debates. It's remind me of the beauty of science.
In my opinion religious debates are a waste of time i rather spent time learning science
@@felixbeutin9530 they are, but i cant say no to one
@@felixbeutin9530
Flat Earthers, Anti-Vaxxers, Homophobes, Evolution deniers and the list goes on......
These religions are the main cause of violence and destruction of humanity and ironically they claim that they promote humanity. 🤦♂️
It is now a decade later and we still need this reminder.
Things like this make me feel bad for not understanding math.
I simply cannot wrap my mind around the language of the universe.
You don't always need to completely understand math to dabble in science. Alessandro Volta actually had pretty poor math skills so when studying electricity he had a hard time grasping the vectors of the electric field. Because of this he came up with electric potential that instead used scalars which made made the math a lot easier. From his concept of electric potential came voltage or a change in electric potential.
You don’t need to be good at math to understand the cosmos. All you need is the the willingness to discover more.
universe really is fascinating
riveting, really.
@@izadorakashper9053 wow thank you for replying. This is some nostalgic music
"Science replaces private prejudice, with publicly verifiable evidence. "
-Richard Dawkins
I still know the words to some of these even so long after middle school Earth Science class 🥺💕 Shout out to my teacher for showing me these and helping me fall in love with science and our beautiful Earth early on
I love this❤
RIP Stephen hawking
Gospelmusic of the future.
im straight vibing brotha
Thank you Melodysheep, listening again to this reawakens my passion of knowledge seeking
i started working out and after a week, i'm starting to feel like a gym douche. I'm crawling back to my real interest SCIENCE.
Work out at home whilst watching scientific videos?
I wish I could make videos this good. This and other videos of yours on science and tributes to individuals, the hours, days you must have spent composing and gathering the highest quality footage. Where were you able to get such great footage and how did you get around their copyrights? Great job!
The real gods speaking
So elegant and beautiful, passion for understanding is amazing.
I think it's safe to say, that this atom we're living on is quite interesting, but it's not the whole story. Compare Hydrogen to the Earth-Luna System, I see something familiar, do you?
No, no you don't.
Maxim Semkovič I see a small sphere orbiting another small sphere, looks like the Earth-Luna system to me. And thus, we are actually less than an atom to the Universe.
Well that is where you are wrong. A hydrogen atom is not a small sphere orbiting another small sphere. In fact, an electron doesn't even have dimensions and does not behave like a sphere at all. Maybe I'm being a pedant, but physics is physics.
Maxim Semkovič I'm referring to how it is explained in class. And what I mean is that Earth is nothing to the Universe. So, stop THINKING TOO MUCH! Now, that is a reference to the greatest speech ever made.
KASASpace And I am reacting to your question "Compare Hydrogen to the Earth-Luna System, I see something familiar, do you?" - by saying that I see very little similarities, looking with the eyes of science, which is what is this video about.
❤️❤️science❤️❤️
i knew i recognized dawkin's voice...
This was the first polished, high quality SoS video. Still probably my favorite one.
You can't compare science and religion. Science is investigating natural world. Religion is the belief in supernatural realm. They both Coexist.
@christopher Exactly.
Religion makes claims about the natural world which science can disprove (and has done).
but when you apply the belief of supernatural realm into the natural world, it's a recipe for conflict, so no. They cannot coexist.
Sounds like a crappy religion if it can be disproven by science...
Better than religion
By far better then religion
شعری کامل از واقعیت.....واقعیت زنده پیرامون....
A big fan of you, please don't stop making theses songs... the lyrics of every musics just inspire me, GOOD JOB!
Man your work is so wonderful. The music is impeccable and you are a very brilliant person. How I enjoy all your videos. Tank you so much. Kind Regards. 😭💫👀👂🤩😍😍😍❤
"I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, I think it's much more interesting." - do cientista que mais admiro.
this song is so beautiful, I cry every time I listen to it.
I think it's one of the best songs in the series. Besides the great music, the song is the most positive and motivating. When I'm lazy or stuck somewhere I often listen it :).
This randomly popped into my head today. i love it
Thank you for your videos!
Just because science explains something, does not make it any less amazing and incredible- in fact, it makes it even more awesome.
I remember the last time I heard this song was in 2013 when i was studying for my physics exam.. I got goosebumps now throughout the song..
God I wish I was still the same..
I've cried my eyes out
I've just started to read the first 12 pages and already I have learnt so much about the truth, I see it now and now that I know I feel much better and fear a lot less.
Very good lines. These scientists could come up with some beautiful poetry. You know they must be passionate about their jobs.
The world is so beautiful, and is far more amazing than which we can imagine. "There are more things in heaven and on Earth, than are dreamt of in your philosphy."
is it weird that I cry every time I hear this and think about it?
Didn't want to add yet another subscription.
Watched 3 videos then I had to.
Good job, and graet music!
I swear I watch whenever I want to forget the things going on in today's world and ground myself in reality.
amazing work, thanks symphony of science. this song encourges me in my job. Sicence is the best
