Creationist: "We don't need no stinkin' evidence. God told us what happened, in the Bible, and I believe what God said. Man's 'wisdom' is fallible. God's Word is infallible."
@@oakfat5178 The gods of the Bronze Age and the early Iron Age did not insist that they were _good_ , merely powerful and cosmically ordained to rule. The Old Testament is assembled from various cultural resources of those ages, and the stories certainly tell of a God who is interested neither in being "good" nor in being perceived as such. Even for much of our own western history, God's goodness was a matter of "what I say goes" i.e. a matter of pre-ordained hierarchy (in line with the peasant - Lord - King hierarchy among humans) and not a matter of moral or ethical superiority - that is quite a recent notion of ours. I used to think that the words god and good shared an etymology in germanic languages, but that is not the case. To the point your making: we do not even have God's word for it. All I ever heard was other mortals purporting to speak for God. Coincidentally, they were always mortals who were ill-informed and generally wrong about matters that I _could_ verify.

I asked a Christian to prove God, here's how it went, yes this really happened: Me: " Prove God exists." Christian: " You being here proves God exists." Me: " No. Me being here proves my parents had sex. It does not prove God exists." Christian: " You're parents being here proves God exists." Me: " No. My parents being here proves their parents had sex. It does not prove God exists." Christian: " Well Adam and Eve being here proves God exists."

I used to ask evolution doubting christians I lived with (nice people we got on okay) if they believed that everything that existed was created by God. They said yes. I then asked what created God, and if nothing then didn't that mean God doesn't exist? I got some wild answers.
@@TheOriginalAnswerman Usually variations of 'Yes but God is outside the Universe' (not sure what that means), 'That's what I choose to believe and we can't understand him' and memorably 'That's my parents belief so it's mine too'.
@@TheOriginalAnswerman As I understand it, the "mainstream" answer is that god is not created, he has always existed, is outside of time and space and above nature, and is impossible to comprehend. And he can bring things into existence with a word.
Expertly done. The sad thing is that this is just as good as the "best" arguments actual creationists present. Throw in some jokes that don't land, a Hawaiian shirt, and some homophobia, and voilá! You've got a Kent Hovind video.
@@TheOriginalAnswerman It's an example of horizontal (or lateral) gene transfer, not hybridization. Hybridization is still the result of sexual reproduction of the organism. Horizontal gene transfer is not.
It could be, but hybridization is more typical in plants than horizontal gene transfer… at least that’s what Google’s AI says. But he might be a freaking liar!!
@@TheOriginalAnswerman Hybridization takes two different strains to produce a hybrid of the two. For example, modern seed corn is a first generation hybrid of two different strains of corn. Horizontal gene transfer typically involves the transfer of entirely new genes into a species. While you could use it to transfer genes from one strain to another, that would be incredibly inefficient. It is essentially the natural version of genetic engineering in which new genes are inserted into a species. In the case of hexaploid wheat, something like 10,000 years ago when seed cleaning was very limited, a farmer sowing the tetraploid wheat of the day also had some closely related grass inadvertently mixed in. The genes from the grass cross over and added themselves into the genome of the wheat (possibly just a couple of plants) forming a wheat with 21 pairs of chromosomes instead of the 14 pairs of chromosomes in the tetraploid wheat. This accidental creation of hexaploid wheat made modern civilization possible. It spread from that one field throughout Asia and Europe relatively quickly. When Columbus came to the New World, he brought a strain of hexaploid wheat. This wheat was had fragile stalks that tended to break off leaving little to be harvested. It was what Norman Borlaug crossed with a Japanese dwarf wheat (also a hexploid wheat) to create a new, sturdier strain of wheat that changed Mexico from a wheat importer into a wheat exporter. Repeating that work around the world led to Norman Borlaug's Nobel Prize. The tetraplold wheat is still around and is, I think, largely used for pastas. The diploid wheat with 7 pairs of chromosomes is around as well but it is in limited production in small areas around the Mediterranean and is largely used for animal feed and for a bread.
There is an esssetial point here, and that is the creationists never present their own theory. They spend all their time casting doubt on evolution, never presenting a theory that could be falsified as a replacement. Their whole program is "evolution is just a religion like our religion, therefore we should be able to teach it in science classes too". That is the heart and soul of their argument.
@ yeah, anyone who says “I can’t find a single good argument for God” only to complain that all the videos he received were “too long” is a moron lol. That and basically saying because the brain tricks yourself into thinking you’re a woman you must be a woman.

@@TheOriginalAnswerman Evolution is the only Thoery that keep the name evolution it but can not explain from what exactly the first microcells come from. What a Joke!
The theory of evolution is about how existing life evolves. The way life first began through chemical processes is a different theory called Abiogenesis.
@@TheOriginalAnswerman Still remain this: Evolution is the only Thorry that keep the name evolution it but can not explain from what exactly the first microcells come from. What a Joke!...
Yeah. The theory of gravity is a joke too, because it doesn’t explain where pickles come from.
Humans didn’t evolve from primates… They evolved from crabs 🦀
We still are primates.
@ Have a banana 🍌
Do you know that chimps also eat meat? They’re omnivores, just like us.
@@TheOriginalAnswerman So do Baboons.
Have a hotdog 🌭
You almost got me, this is priceless. Spot on impression of what creationists actually say, too.
Yes, that’s what happens when you waste your time trying to talk sense to them. They just keep making the same arguments over and over again.
If you came from your parents why do you still have parents?
If Americans came from Brits why are there still Brits?
This is actually hilarious, I was worried I’d have to send this to a biologist UA-cam channel or something
I was hoping someone might actually do that. 😎
I know. I almost sicced Logicked on this guy.
(I should anyway.)
Oh, be nice!
Subbed this was really funny I'll be checking out your other ones a little later. Good luck to you you're almost at a thousand.
Thanks very much. It took me a year to get to 500 subs. I almost got my second 500 in three days because of this one video.
I like how the guy in the background sounds like a confused mafia henchman.. And he sounds like a Paulie.
They’re both me. Those are the best voices I can do. 😎
@@TheOriginalAnswerman I was considering that as a possibility, but I wasn't sure, so good job!! 🤣
Thanks. Glad you liked it! 🙏
For the same reason there are still bacteria, I would imagine.
This is a satire to both creationists and evolutionists lol i like it
I’m not sure how many creationists laughed at it, though…
Golden. Pure gold.
Edit: And this guy reads every comment too, what a legend.
To be fair, I threw my back out, so I’m stuck on the sofa armed with my iPad… but I understand the algorithm reacts positively to comments, so I feel like I’m being productive. 😎
@TheOriginalAnswerman I agree with you.
Diffrent branches of the evolutionary tree, just because one branch succeeds more, doesnt mean all similar branchds go extinct.
Yes. I know. The video isn’t pro creationism. It just pretends to be…
It’s like posing the question “if you exist, why do you have siblings?”
But if siblings exist, why are there strangers?
If you exist with blond hair, why does your sister exist with red hair?
If modern dogs came from wolves why are there still wolves?
You having 666 subscribers at the moment is icing on the cake 😁

Thank you. No one has told me that I look like anyone… ever.
This vid woke me up a little. I almost commented without watching first. That’s never a good idea. Thanks for that Brother 🤟
You’re welcome. Lol
Creationist: "We don't need no stinkin' evidence. God told us what happened, in the Bible, and I believe what God said. Man's 'wisdom' is fallible. God's Word is infallible."
I like to remind biblical literalists that if the Bible really is the word of God, then we only have his word for it that he's the good guy.
@@oakfat5178 The gods of the Bronze Age and the early Iron Age did not insist that they were _good_ , merely powerful and cosmically ordained to rule. The Old Testament is assembled from various cultural resources of those ages, and the stories certainly tell of a God who is interested neither in being "good" nor in being perceived as such.
Even for much of our own western history, God's goodness was a matter of "what I say goes" i.e. a matter of pre-ordained hierarchy (in line with the peasant - Lord - King hierarchy among humans) and not a matter of moral or ethical superiority - that is quite a recent notion of ours.
I used to think that the words god and good shared an etymology in germanic languages, but that is not the case.
To the point your making: we do not even have God's word for it. All I ever heard was other mortals purporting to speak for God. Coincidentally, they were always mortals who were ill-informed and generally wrong about matters that I _could_ verify.
@@physicswithpark3r-x3x I have never thought any gods exist.
I believe both OT & NT were written to suit the interests of the authors.
I was talking about screwing with the heads of people I interact with in the present day only, and only those who claim the Bible is "the word of God".
Dunno what your reply was about.I also tell anti-vaxxers that you can now vaccinate your kids against autism, and c0nspiracy theorist that the only way to get fluoride out of milk is to pasteurise it.
@@oakfat5178 my point was quite simply that the God of the bible does not even claim that he is the "good" guy - not in the sense in which people understand that word nowadays.
@@physicswithpark3r-x3x My point was simply that some people believe it's the word of God, and I like to imply to such people that there's a 50/50 chance that Satan's* the good guy.
*I know Satan doesn't exist, and it's not about what I think.
On my list of the stupidest comments creationists make about evolution, "why are there still monkeys" is definitely at the top.
Same here.
This was really well done
I appreciate the compliment. 🙏
Hilarious! Thank you for the video! I just subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed it. thanks for subscribing!
If Adam gave a rib to create Eve, why do men still have 12 ribs?
Obviously, they used to have 13.😜
Great! Finally some serious, hard, irrefutable evidence for creationsim! Thanks Answerman-you always come through
Yes, well The GodDidIt Institute does some great work…
I asked a Christian to prove God, here's how it went, yes this really happened:
Me: " Prove God exists."
Christian: " You being here proves God exists."
Me: " No. Me being here proves my parents had sex. It does not prove God exists."
Christian: " You're parents being here proves God exists."
Me: " No. My parents being here proves their parents had sex. It does not prove God exists."
Christian: " Well Adam and Eve being here proves God exists."
Me: " Now prove Adam and Eve existed in the first place."
Christian: Crickets.
Christians don’t seem to mind the strong implication of incest in the story of Adam and Eve, either.
@@TheOriginalAnswerman, Don't forget Noah incest and Lot incest.
God's down there in the gaps, with the grit and dirt, the occasional frenchfry and penny.
So God is in between the cushions on my couch? I thought it was a bit lumpy…
Even a penny has worth and value. Which is more that can be said about theists "proofs".
LOL! That was not what I was expecting. Hilarious.
Gotcha 😎🍺
I used to ask evolution doubting christians I lived with (nice people we got on okay) if they believed that everything that existed was created by God. They said yes. I then asked what created God, and if nothing then didn't that mean God doesn't exist? I got some wild answers.
Can you summarize one or two?
@@TheOriginalAnswerman Usually variations of 'Yes but God is outside the Universe' (not sure what that means), 'That's what I choose to believe and we can't understand him' and memorably 'That's my parents belief so it's mine too'.
Thank you. I’m going to chew on these for a while…
@@TheOriginalAnswerman As I understand it, the "mainstream" answer is that god is not created, he has always existed, is outside of time and space and above nature, and is impossible to comprehend. And he can bring things into existence with a word.
Yeah. I made a video about it. “The Genesis of Genesis”
Expertly done. The sad thing is that this is just as good as the "best" arguments actual creationists present. Throw in some jokes that don't land, a Hawaiian shirt, and some homophobia, and voilá! You've got a Kent Hovind video.
Ha!
Why are there still monkeys??? 😂😂😂 Tell me you don't know anything about evolution without saying you don't know anything about evolution 💀💀💀
Yes. That was the point of the title.
Is that a Ray Comfort impression? For a moment I thought it was really him 😂
You mean the voice of the director? That’s my Steve Buscemi impersonation.
@@TheOriginalAnswerman Ah, I see. Sounded really close to Ray at times, at least to my ear.
He’s whoever you want him to be. It’s just my regular voice pitched up a bit. Sounds like Steve to my ear. 😎
If I came from my parents, why do they still exist?
Geez! Go easy on your parents, man! 😎
Hexaploid wheat came from tetraploid wheat and a diploid grass. Fortunately, we still have tetraploid wheat to make pasta with.
That would be an example of hybridization.
@@TheOriginalAnswerman It's an example of horizontal (or lateral) gene transfer, not hybridization.
Hybridization is still the result of sexual reproduction of the organism. Horizontal gene transfer is not.
It could be, but hybridization is more typical in plants than horizontal gene transfer… at least that’s what Google’s AI says. But he might be a freaking liar!!
@@TheOriginalAnswerman Hybridization takes two different strains to produce a hybrid of the two. For example, modern seed corn is a first generation hybrid of two different strains of corn.
Horizontal gene transfer typically involves the transfer of entirely new genes into a species. While you could use it to transfer genes from one strain to another, that would be incredibly inefficient. It is essentially the natural version of genetic engineering in which new genes are inserted into a species.
In the case of hexaploid wheat, something like 10,000 years ago when seed cleaning was very limited, a farmer sowing the tetraploid wheat of the day also had some closely related grass inadvertently mixed in. The genes from the grass cross over and added themselves into the genome of the wheat (possibly just a couple of plants) forming a wheat with 21 pairs of chromosomes instead of the 14 pairs of chromosomes in the tetraploid wheat.
This accidental creation of hexaploid wheat made modern civilization possible. It spread from that one field throughout Asia and Europe relatively quickly.
When Columbus came to the New World, he brought a strain of hexaploid wheat. This wheat was had fragile stalks that tended to break off leaving little to be harvested. It was what Norman Borlaug crossed with a Japanese dwarf wheat (also a hexploid wheat) to create a new, sturdier strain of wheat that changed Mexico from a wheat importer into a wheat exporter. Repeating that work around the world led to Norman Borlaug's Nobel Prize.
The tetraplold wheat is still around and is, I think, largely used for pastas. The diploid wheat with 7 pairs of chromosomes is around as well but it is in limited production in small areas around the Mediterranean and is largely used for animal feed and for a bread.
Cool. Thanks for that!
you had us in the first half ngl XD

Physicist, beware metaphysics!
- I daresay someone said that.
There is an esssetial point here, and that is the creationists never present their own theory. They spend all their time casting doubt on evolution, never presenting a theory that could be falsified as a replacement. Their whole program is "evolution is just a religion like our religion, therefore we should be able to teach it in science classes too". That is the heart and soul of their argument.
Yup
their theory is God Willed It. Which is a theory of sorts...
That’s not a testable theory
@@TheOriginalAnswerman don't argue with me, I literally wrote the (well, a) book on evolutionary theory
Ok. How do you test it?
where in the line did we gain self consciousness
All primates are self conscious… all mammals are self conscious to varying degrees.
@@TheOriginalAnswerman ua-cam.com/video/fIyYTSnFxb8/v-deo.htmlsi=sUC9vVAnYeIAMAKn this sums up what your saying pretty much
Yeah, you throew me off at first. Well played! :)

That's the same as asking why are their religions , When their are no gods.
Not really. But the video is a spoof of creationism.
I'm disappointed, after a few years of watching professor Dave.. i felt fully ready to dunk on some creationists.
Ha!
He’s kinda a moron though
Professor Dave is a moron?
@ yeah, anyone who says “I can’t find a single good argument for God” only to complain that all the videos he received were “too long” is a moron lol. That and basically saying because the brain tricks yourself into thinking you’re a woman you must be a woman.
Hmmm. Were you the person sending him the videos about god, by any chance?
If Humans came from God then why is there still God?
As far as I can tell, there is no God…
@TheOriginalAnswerman exactly. I've proven that monkeys do not exist.
This is such a good idea for a video👍
Thanks. A lot of people thought it was a real creationist video. Their reactions have been fun to read.
This was hilarious. Excellent work! 😂
Thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to comment.🙏
IF humans were made from dirt, why is there still dirt?
And if everything was made from god, why is there still god? Oh, wait a minute… there isn’t one. We may be on to something!
My creationism was challenged by monkeys looking like us, so I just stopped believing in monkeys.
Now, that’s the most reasonable thing a creationist has ever said to me…
Caesar from. "Planet of the Apes" wants to have a word with you about your non belief.
The cheque cleared?
That's the hardest part to believe!
Mind you, you should have a few spare semolions when you don't pay any tax....

But what about all the evidences?
All the evidences of what?
@TheOriginalAnswerman it was a pun on "evidences". Sorry 🙂
