I used to think your side was being unduly nasty to creationists, but I’ve recently started watching AIG content. The straw men, bad faith arguments, and flat dishonesty over there is jarring. Keep up the good work.
There was a time when this gibberish seemed like good science to me. Glad that is no longer the case.
Also have recently been watching Apologists that turn up to debates and refuse to answer direct question. Instead they spout a load of logical gibberish to deflect, avoid answering direct questions and answer every question with a question. Then smugly make ad hominem attacks on the Theist for not following their pre-planned script. Many high profile Theists are truly horrible human beings, and the fact that they are not being disowned by the mainstream churches, is a good reason for the current decline of Western Christian churches.
The forced smiles really fooled a lot of people, but the past few decades have let the mask slip pretty dang hard. The whole 'atheists are nasty' thing is part of the show they put on with each other. They pretend like they're the nice "godly" ones, but figurative jesus proverbial tap-dancing christ they've *_always_* been the worst examples of humanity. They don't use "bad words" but they will throw everything else at the people they hate, up to and including the _dictionary definition_ of the bad words they think are demonic.
It's a trick I call the Politician's Lie. They won't call you stupid, because that would violate the rules of decorum; instead they'll say you're a _(adj) -having or showing a great lack of intelligence or common sense._ And the morons in the pews fall for it every time.
Every cultist does it. And when they feel like they couldn't get away with it, or don't want to bother with putting on a show of being a good person anymore? "I'll pray for you." As if the recipient is just such a completely lost "soul" that only the direct intervention of an immortal magic man could possibly fix them. Whereas I'd simply say "You're not interested in the truth, you're a liar, I'm done wasting my time with you" and would be right, but that's _rude._
You say "your side" so I assume you're a cultist yourself. Think real hard about how often you or the people around you do it. It's not a bug present only in creationists, it's a feature of cults in general. Even pyramid schemes do the 'forced niceness' show because they are functionally identical to cults. A con artist will tell you you're big and strong and handsome and brave to get on your good side and steal your wallet. Someone who says you're being an idiot is less likely to get close enough to rob you. Tough pill to swallow, but real medicine doesn't care about taste.
Does this 'dishonesty' also include deliberate lying?
It's usually not the trained scientists that are impatient and insulting in their presentations, but rather the amateurs engaging in science communication.
"This mallard is fully bird, not fully duck" is what I hear when they say human ancestors are ape and not human.

I laughed at the three hail Darwins she said after she committed her egg-head sins. 🤣 And the fact that these uber Christians used a word like "shyster," (a Yiddish word) to describe these supposedly questionable "evolutionists" invoked a serious 🤨
@@IKilledEarl Is that really odd? Despite English's borrowing of vocabulary from all sorts of places - which itself makes this less odd in another way - most everyday English words are still descended from Anglo-Saxon, the language of the pagan invaders who conquered most of (at least nominally Christian) post-Roman Britain.
@@logitimate Considering the anti-Semitic dog whistles AIG is known to spout? No, in that sense, it's not odd. In the sense that you're describing? Yes, very much so.
Yiddish is descended from Hebew, High German, and Aramaic and wasn't part of the Anglo-Saxon invasion as it developed after British settlement and in a completely different region of Europe. Anglo-Saxon isn't a language. Old English is the language spoken by the Anglo-Saxon Germanic tribes. While modern English in its most rudimentary form developed from Old English, almost 90% of Old English words are extinct after Latin, Nordic, and a bazillion other influences made it what it is today.
A tiny portion of the population currently speaks Yiddish in the US (slightly larger globally). Although through media, several more common Yiddish words are known by non-Jews post WW2. That being said, their use is still rare and I fully expect AIG to know damn well where shyster comes from and don't believe for a nanosecond its use in this context is an accident.
@@IKilledEarl This is correct, but I wanted to add that the language known today as Old English was the Saxon variant spoken in Wessex - Alfred the Great's kingdom - and the other kingdoms had different dialects. I live in what was Northumbria, and would have spoken an Anglian dialect. West Saxon became dominant as Alfred's heirs went on to unite England.
Off-topic a little, but interesting.

"East is East and West is West and never the twain shall meet.", he smugly quotes without realizing that they do meet. They meet right where you're standing or wherever your reference for East and West are. They're relative directions so they have to have a meeting point.
It's telling that the only argument they have is: "PEOPLE DIDN'T KNOW STUFF THAT WE NOW KNOW!"

It's amusing to imagine a creationist trying to fill their pet's prescription for the first time, driving all over town in search of the Cat/Dog pharmacy. Especially when they realize their dog takes the same heart medication as they do. "Excuse me, but you must have made a mistake. Humans and Dogs are completely diffrent KINDS of animals."

I have a minor jaw irregularity that my dentist has commented on. My jaw is slightly oversized for my skull, and I have very large molars and roots. Large enough that after having to have a tooth pulled, he asked if it could be kept for study as it was an exceptionally large example. I have also had my DNA examined due to a few genetic conditions I have, and in doing so I found I had a relatively large number of neanderthal DNA markers (over 5%). I am of West European ancestry, primarily German, Scottish, and Welsh. It is purely speculative, but an interesting idea to think that my jaw morphology may be due to some holdover from having a neanderthal somewhere far back in my family tree, as I had not heard of the retromolar gap before now. I would be interested to have my teeth and jaw examined in comparison to a neanderthal sample.
So cool!
Mine came in sideways, and rotten. I wish I got free caveman teeth, but all I got was a dental bill, and two caps the busted out after they started coming in.
But really, I like how your teeth were so big that the dentist wanted to keep it for further studies… That’s just oddly cool.
That is such a strange boast. I love it.
Go to a couple universities anthropology departments. Osteology class instructors will be all over you.
"and in doing so I found I had a relatively large number of neanderthal DNA markers (over 5%)"

...
that's what we do with competing species, right?
Calvin in particular hit my radar recently with a video where he spoke on mutation and natural selection...and actually described them remarkably accurately, compared to the average apologist. He of course still proceeded to dismiss them for inane reasons, but I couldn't help but notice that the way he did it was kind of brilliant.
He described Mutation accurately and honestly, and then went and claimed that pure randomness would never lead to advancements.
He then described Natural Selection accurately and honestly, and then went and claimed that it couldn't ever produce anything new.
He was also VERY careful to keep the talk of these two aspects of evolution separate, focusing wholly on one, "debunking" it, buffering time a bit, then focusing solely on the other. By doing it this way he very carefully avoids the problem that _should_ come from describing both of these things accurately: The realization that each one perfectly solves the problem he had with the other one. Natural selection doesn't produce new things, but mutation does. Mutation sounds like it's purely random, but natural selection says no to some mutations and allows others, thereby making it not random, and providing a neat upwards trend.
By describing both of these terms accurately, Calvin puts his followers in a position where they can listen to a fully accurate description of how these two things work together, and think "yeah yeah, I've already heard this before...", rather than "wait, THAT'S what evolution claims?! This changes everything!" It's incredibly clever immunization.
But in order to do this so well, and especially in this specific way, proves to anyone who knows better that Calvin is well-versed enough to fully understand evolution and the evidence for it....and still tries to tell people it's all a hoax. This places him firmly into the "definitive liar" camp with, in my estimate, over 98% certainty. Is there margin for error? Yes. But it's VERY slight.
His approach in this video, which you rightfully called him out on, only serves to further indicate his knowing dishonesty, and you're right to call him out on the hypocrisy of his statement in this video.
I swear I saw a response video to the one you described but I can't remember who was responding. Usually the UA-camr I see responding to Calvin is Viced Rhino, but if it's in his catalog, I'm having trouble finding it. Did you see a response video, and if so, do you remember who was responding?
@@heatherkuhn6559 It was definitely a response video, yeah....and I would have also thought it was Viced Rhino. But I've been looking through everyone's catalogue for about 30 minutes and I can't find the video on anyone's channel. Kinda freaking me out a bit...maybe I just watched an older video recently? Or maybe it got taken down. I have no idea D:
Edit: Of course I find it the instant I send this message. It's Forrest Valkai's Reacteria, video titled "Answers in Genesis fails AGAIN"
What could possibly account for that 2% hedge factor? I mean, how could Calvin be oblivious to his own clear intent? Heavy drinking? PCP abuse? Do you think he might be huffing paint or glue just before he gives a presentation? He doesn’t seem to be particularly impaired otherwise. It’s difficult for me to imagine what could cause such dramatic dissociation.
@@cswanson4476 I am always anywhere from slightly to freakishly modest in my estimations of things. I'll come up with a loose range of percents, and then always pick the single worst-looking value on that list for me, and go with that. That way I never oversell my case, nor give ammunition to those who might look at a range of 98% to 100% and say "See that 100%? She clearly can't even fathom the possibility that he isn't lying!", or whatever strawman misrepresentation they want to throw at me. Personally I refuse to ever claim 100% knowledge of _anything,_ even mathematical concepts (and I'm the math nerd, so that's saying something), and I basically treat "certain knowledge" as an asymptotic line that you can get infinitely close to but still never reach (see? math nerd :P)
As for why I chose the range I did, I DO believe it's entirely possible for someone, be it Calvin or someone else, to say such things while fully believing them. It requires that person to be UTTERLY dedicated to espousing the exact same ideas they grew up with, exactly the same way they heard them, without giving them critical thought at any point, or else being very skilled at pushing nagging doubts to the back of their mind and saying they don't mean anything.
It's a rare type of person who would go that far and not realize, but it isn't impossible. And I mean, I said it, didn't I? Calvin's explanation is beautifully crafted, whether by him or his sensei, to immunize people against the "eeeevil wickedness" of evolution. So someone who grew up with that as their vaccine against truth might go spreading the same virus of lies out later in life. Again, unlikely compared to him just being one of the liars himself, but not 0%. But also definitely less than 2%.
So yeah, that was about everything that went through my head in the seconds before I typed out those three characters on my keyboard :P
And now you know _entirely_ too much about what life in my head is like!
@@riluna3695 there could be a case of Orwellian doublethink. I solemnly belive it is the case for flatearthers so why not for, at least some, creationists. It takes certain mindset to see international space station with one's own eyes and go "pfrhslmph, no" and to say gravity doesn't exist (because it can't on flat earth with it's miniature sun etc) and then propose that there is some misterious force that keeps us on the disc, takes the same mindset to deny evolution and then propose... evolution, but speeded up 10 times as a proof of no evolution
You're a legend. You've restored some confidence science still matters in the USA. Respect from New Zealand.
Well said GG! I don't understand how these people can claim to be highly moral Christians then indulge in blatant misinterpretation, smears and outright lies.
Accept Jesus in your heart and anything will be forgiven. It’s the “get out of hell” card, whatever you have done.
Christianity is for most purposes just a label, it has no active enforcement power for the morals, so breaking them is merely an inconvenience if you feel bad about it. Any change becoming Christian MIGHT cause, are completely internal, it does not magically switch on a moral-gland in your brain of anything, thus the effect relies only on what you feel you need to do or can't possibly justify to yourself.
That means on the other side also that once you get an excuse for lying, like being lead to believe that non christians do not deserve honesty as long as the lies will bring a few to god (or at least to pay the church), all bets are off. And "judeo christian values" (as in "creatively reinterpreting any part of the bible shared between Jews and Christians") are sadly capable of justifying a lot worse, from discriminating against "wretched" human beings (e.g. LGBT+ persons or "nonbelievers"/heathens) to domestic violence against children or spouses (spare the rod comes to mind and "the husband is the head of the house as Christ is the head of the church). We see that far too often when loud spoken Christian figure heads like the hatepreachers of the NIFB bunch are exposed as treating their family atrociously under the excuse that god wanted them to have total authority about the home (also see Kent Hovind smilingly telling the annecdote about brutally spanking Eric at the Dentist's office) and other self declared "avowed Christians" being caught in adultery, sex they usually disapprove of publically and all the other horrible things done by Christians without the least bit of bad conscience.
Don't get me wrong, People that do not have faith or different faiths do act in similar ways also. You do not NEED to be Christian to commit such actions and i'm definitely just as mad as any child abuser, rapist or embezzler that is not of the Faith.
But the hypocrisy of talking about the religion (or is it? "It's a personal relationship with god/Jesus" seems to be a big slogan for them) as holding moral high ground and nobody but them coming close to having any justified moral stances and then seeing them be so uninhibited for all the worst behavior in the world is truly galling and has thoroughly destroyed most of the respect i had left for the church and its flock that I had retained when leaving myself, now about 28 years ago.
Well said GG! I don't understand how these people can claim to be highly moral Christians then indulge in blatant misinterpretation, smears and outright lies.
Because they believe that being "Liars for Jesus" is justified because they are trying to "save" you. Anything is acceptable towards that goal.

I wonder, if you told a creationist that if they're found to be hypocritical, they'll be kicked in the gut, how many of them would continue saying stuff like that? They get to be the martyr they always wanted and take some pain for the team!
The basis of their bibliolatry is very physical, specifically about manipulating death-fears and pain-avoidance.
Purpose, but otherwise yes.
I don't live in america which is why I ask the question.

26:57 “you’ll notice they never get mad about it when it happens to dinosaurs” I’ve met some YECs that continue to be mad that dinosaurs had feathers
Which is weird, since how dinosaurs looked isn't really important to their version, is it? They just want to prove that they were around during the supposed flood and walked along man, and J don't see how the presence of feathers makes that impossible.
@Gildedmuse While I see your point, I don't think that is generally why it is seen to be problematic. It is true that any *good* YEC will explain away the presence of feathers so they can continue supporting their desired narrative. But you have to wonder if that doesn't cause a bit of cognitive dissonance for them which is uncomfortable, and more importantly one would think it would cause the children in their communities to ask uncomfortable questions they don't have a genuine answer for at all without absurd justifications or obfuscation. It really gets in the way of the grift.
The presence of feathers lends too much credence to the evolution of birds from dinosaurs for them to accept it
To say "Australopithecus afarensis, commonly known as Lucy" sounds to me like "Homo sapiens sapiens, commonly known as Steve"
If we're going by the naming convention of the holotype nickname becoming the common name then Homo sapiens would actually be called Carl (or Carolus if we're being *fancy*) since Carl linnaeus is considered by some to be the Holotype specimen if we had to choose one.

How to sin all you want (choose one):
1) Dedicate your life towards constructing an elaborate fictional metaphysics that says that sinning isn't a real thing
2) Grab a Jesus sin-exemption card and use it daily
That’s a Christian taking point I never understood.
Because you want to sin, you’re rejecting the only mechanism which can absolve any sin.
Makes no sense. If I wanted to sin, the only reasonable path would be to become a Christian.

Another hour long video from Gutsick Gibbon? YES!! This will help me get through work today 😁
Calvin is one of these guys who displays enough familiarity with the subject matter, that you know he long ago crossed the line between disingenuousness in the defense of his faith, to outright dishonesty in just about anything he says. I have a hard time believing he doesn't sometimes - just for a second - look in the mirror and see a flimflam man staring back. You have to be a con artist to lie this cooly and calmly.
Yah, but how much money is he making from it?
I appreciate the use of "flimflam man". Thank you.
I think Calvin is just upset that Hobbes left him for Susie Derkins.
I hope you can help even a few people deprived of legitimate science education start questioning what these manipulative charlatan$ put out.
Thanks for the great work! Very enjoyable delivery to boot.

“Evolutionist are all racist and think Neanderthals are inferior, here I’ll prove it, here is an evolutionist (that all other evolutionists consider the big boy expert) and he doesn’t think that! Checkmate.” xD glorious
What is really sad is the the guy looks like a professional, says everything with confidence and anyone who trusts him will just trust everything he says is the truth. Lie with authority and it will be believed. Really sad.
He _is_ a professional. A professional liar. That's his job. He gets paid to read a script full of lies. If he sucked at reading lies he would get fired and they'd find someone else literate and capable of spewing bullshit without choking. Think of it as _job selection_ causing organisms unfit for survival in their empoyvironment to be selected against and the rest becoming adapted to the contractual conditions they find themselves in.
He's an apologist therefore: a professional lier.
You're right, and that is exactly the point. Creationist material is not meant to convince science-educated people. It's meant to keep creationist-educated people convinced.
It wouldn’t work if his audience had even a rudimentary science education.
For me, he rather looks like some android, or even like those kind of automated dolls they use in amusement parks.
They keep using the Piltown Man as this gotcha, but no one has taken it seriously for over a century other than Creationists.
How many times have they had to revise their global flood models, by the way?
It's beyond pathetic.
"Look, this singular sample existed, which scientists found doesn't fit within the patterns shown by hundreds, if not thousands, of other samples, therefore evolution is false."
Piltdown is an example of science self-correcting itself. It took longer than it should have but it was unmasked as a hoax by scientific testing
And they aren't even the ones who proved it was a hoax. It was other scientists that proved it.
Actually, in total, AiG hasn't revised their flood model at all:
Bible started out with "God did it".
At this point, if memory serves, they're saying their flood model may take new and exotic solutions to work. (AKA miracles, AKA God did it)
They have to, cuz there are, like 2 actual fakes that got ANY scientific approval in paleoanthropology EVER. Of those only Piltdown was an intentional fake, the other was that swine tooth from America, that did look like a human one tbh. Compared to the idiotically huge amount of non-fake findings and discoveries made with those findings, these people are unfunny clowns and should be presented as such to the largest amount of people possible.
Creationists are brushing shoulders with the facts. They must first know something about facts in order to spin it to fit their preconceived narrative. Making them dishonest liars.

I honestly think it's because in their mindset, things are better if they don't change and update with the times. So when they cite 200 year old science, they probably think they're citing the "real" stuff. When actually, science is just fine with moving on as the proof dictates.
@@Gildedmuse its delusional to the point they require a psychologist.

I mean I can do it and I'm far from the genius level (but equipped with functional brains)!
Oh, and when our lady Gutsick gets going, she resembles a lot more gorilla than gibbon.... Shred them! I mean, keep shredding them! :) Peace and love!
The sheer amount of unbridled irony in a young earth creationist labeling scientists as "suckers" is mind-boggling.
That awkward situation where one's content is so absurdly hypocritical that if one were to replace every instance of "scientific community" and/or "atheist" with "young earth creationist," the entire extremely deceptive presentation instantaneously becomes 100% factual...
21:00 It always gets me -
Creationist: "Look at how science didn't get 'X' right" (citing work done in 17 and 1800's). "They didn't know anything."
Same creationist: "Let me show you the thoughts of writers and poets from several thousand years ago, they knew absolutely everything" (even though not one thing we know/use in the physical world today comes from those texts).
It's interesting to note, that when early explorers of Australia sent specimens of platypuses (platypusi ?) back to England, zoologists suspected that they were a hoax.
WTF, i was just listening while cleaning the house. I happened to look at my screen, and Calvin is wearing a 3 piece suit and tie. I'm sorry, but that pretty much ends the conversation. We all know that people wearing ties (and vests) know what they're talking about, and NEVER lie.
Good try gut sick. 😢
Don't these folks realize educated people consider them both ignorant and ridiculous?
They are playing to an audience of people that slept through 5th grade biology. It's easier to be a fundamentalist if you don't know, don't question, and follow the leader.
Ah yes the famous arthritis that quadruple the size of your brow--ridge, everyone knows their grand parents start to have inflated brow ridge with age, right? :p
The level of hypocrisy, and the forceful confidence in which the untruths are delivered by this speaker, makes me frustrated and sad for our species. Great work Gutsick!
People always tell you what they are. People who steal, always think, assume, and act as if other people are going to steal from them. People who Lie, always assume everyone else is lying to them, and will accuse them of doing so, at the drop of a hat. Religious people, when they really dislike something a scientist is doing... call it a religion. "I don't have enough faith to believe in -- " I'm coming to understand, that credulity, and hypocrisy, are the most difficult to hide.
The movie thing was funny.
Every single human lies at times, unless, you have never lied ever in your life.
@@simplylethulI assume they're referring to people who lie for malicious reasons
@@CutYourBangs9 everyone does..
I have never felt older than when Erika's idea of a good metaphor was an electric pokemon going against a ground pokemon.
Calvin is part of AiG Canada. Sorry from all Canadians. We’re embarrassed immensely by him.
Usually it's "🎶blame Canada🎶" but this is too much, we can't blame you for this Canada.
Joking aside, I'm old, I'm hurting to see Canada turn into USA north.
As an American I have to apologize too. We seem to be exporting all our crazy bullshit to every corner of the world. I guess my country figures if we have to suffer then we're going to make sure everyone else suffers with us. Pretty garbage thinking, but what did you expect from dumb Americans?

The reason why the cervical bone fragment was noticed by workers in the first place was because of its small size. As Scott Williams, one of the, anatomists helping the Lucy research said
“Mike(Smith, another anatomist) pointed out that one of the [vertebra] fragments, which no one, including me, had really paid close attention to, looked fairly small to fit with the rest of Lucy’s vertebral column,” says Williams.”
I’m still wondering why it was at the least, not considered to be a part of Lucy as this would seem like something rather obvious.
33:32 Calvin actually bragging about Piltdown man being corrected by good anthropologists. This is like an anti-vaxxer bragging that the measles vaccine is better at treating the virus than prayer.
It's like a hypocricy 6 litre V12 engine, only instead of three old style carburettors a-la vintage Lambourghini making it produce 400 hp, it's now direct fuel injected AND it's fitted with three turbo chargers, making it produce at least(!) twice as much...
It was rather overwhelming to begin with, but now... HEEELP!
If I "just want to sin" then it would be logical to become a Christian because it is so easy to be forgiven, especially if you're a Catholic. As a born and raised athiest I'm very aware of my moral limits and even without a god or religion I manage to be a mostly good person. I hope these AIG dopes can honestly say the same.
I see it as not so much "lying with an agenda" as "bearing
false witness for Jeeeezus!", an almost universal affliction
of apologists.
Appreciated multiple references to the biblical forgeries and
bogus archeology they ignore. Add to that more reminders of
the vast misrepresentations of race and culture in their art
and iconography. Atone, Calvin, atone real gooood!
He even managed to use the "How can i descend from my grandparents if i was alive at the same time they were!!?" argument...
PT Barnum quote was actually directed AT him, after he fell for a scam himself... the Cardiff Giant... something else that Creationists believe are real.
Ken Ham didn't give Cesar's things to Cesar and went to prison for tax fraud. He is the epitome of hypocrisy and is a grifter.
That was Kent Hovind. Ham is the one who built his giant boat nowhere near water.
There's a saying: Don't judge a book by the cover. With Calvin you kind of go against that saying because you just look at him and see a picture of less than favorable intelligence.
I spent a long time giving creationists the benefit of the doubt, I don't like calling anyone a liar. When you look at how they miss out what doesn't fit with their beliefs, quote mine, mis-apply physical processes to the wrong situation, refuse to listen to valid arguments and, as you clearly demonstrate here, fabricate their own evidence and put unspoken words into peoples mouths, I can't think of any other way to describe them.
Ape Woman Bob Cut? I think that's the name of an all-girl Monkees cover band 😉
The geology lab I worked in for many years was in the same building as a geology museum. This had British Museum replica busts of Neanderthal man and Piltdown which were withdrawn form display and stored in my supervisors office. The museum used to issue special address labels so any finds could be shipped free of charge to the museum. They were addressed to "The Curator, Geological and Mining Museum". Of course a staff member with a wry sense of humour had tied one of these labels around the neck of the Piltdown bust.
While watching this video, I can't help but think about how evident the emptiness behind creationism is. I grew up in a fundamentalist Christian family where we couldn't even discuss topics like this. Whenever I had questions, I was always given a vague scripture in response. It's probably what led me to break away from Christianity and all the fabricated notions ingrained in me 30 years later. I'm so grateful for content like this; it's like a glass of water in the desert.
"With no other physical evidence whatsoever."
Well, except for the other 300 or so individuals they've found. But that's probably not important.
Creationist "answers" are so much more boring than real science. Plus it doesn't make sense.
I still went home and said three Hail Darwins just to be on the safe side! 😂😂😂❤
Funny thing is, I don't like Darwin. I think he had a lot of problematic issues., including his cousin. YET, I accept evolution. Many of my heroes turned out to be problematic including Einstein and most Hollywood stars I loved. None of that effects science or art. Truth is truth.
My boss asked what I was interested in and i told her i love learning about evolution and eapecially anthropology. She legit told me that Neanderthals were just really old humans whose faces just grew all weird from their advanced age. I was in shock because it was so stupid. I was like how do i tell my boss i just met how dumb that is without getting fired?
Did you know that Linnaeus was thinking about the immutability of species, and that he decided that the thought that species aren't immutable was too blasphemous to publish? He talks about it in some of his letters.
Edit: Not only were they doing slavery, they were using the Bible to justify it.
Edit2 (There will be a lot of edits): According to wikipedia, the Ark has been discovered no less than thirteen times since 1904. It has already been found three times in the 21st century.
Thank you for mentioning Linnaeus. Most magicalskydaddyologists jump right to Darwin and throw up a monkey to man diagram and skip over taxonomic classification existing prior to Darwin. You know, the folks who put similar plants and creatures in groups with similar plants and creatures like humans as primates.
Another edit to make: it’s ark in this case, not arc. Understandable mistake. But yeah it’s been “found” so many times already, but they all happened to be false alarms! Amazing, that never happened with stuff like the Titanic
@@OceanusHelios
This is an American phenomenon for the most part not German, so it's Magical sky daddyologists not Magicalskydaddyologist.
@@whatabouttheearthbest German compound word ever!
The statement at 6:11 is ..... well, you said it best Erika. Hypocrisy!!!
This was kinda fascinating to watch right after OSP's video for today talking about the Pinocchio trope. Basically Red was also asking "what is human and what does that mean? "
Hey what r coincidences. same here
Yooooo I also came straight from there??!??
I've seen some creationnists sites saying that dinosaurs are fake, and that we've never found a complete skeleton of dinosaur. For anyone a little aware of dinosaur paleontology, the amount of either ingorance or deliberate lies is staggering ^^
Technically they're correct. But only on the technicality that we haven't found a single full skeleton from a single specimen. The most complete ever found was Sue the Tyrannosaur who was 90% complete. Then again, we have more than one T-Rex (just like we have more than one Aus. afarensis) so we know what the other 10% looked like, unless Sue had like insane bone cancer in that 10% and it was unrecognizable because of it.
@@thychozwart2451 We have complete skeletons of so many dinosaurs XD
Like, Iguanodon, a lot of different hadrosaurs, Borealopelta, etc... There's so many different complete skeletons, I couldn't show them all ^^'
The thing is, only paleontologists really hear about them, because the public is not very impressed by skeletons, they prefer the reconstructions ^^
You are 100% my favorite science communicator and if I wasn't a broke college student I would subscribe to your patreon 😂
Keep up the good work!
1:57 this is hilarious! She really knows how to keep us hooked. 😭
Do you have to be a scientist to commit debauchery, or can anyone join in?
Anyone can, you just have to hail Darwin at the orgies
I absolutely love and adore your enthusiasm when talking about hominid fossils, it gets me super hyped to learn about them!
A new study came out further debunking the "Man the Hunter" hypothesis. Since you have expertise in evolutionary anthropology, what's your take on women's role in hunter-gatherer societies? Do you have any extra info about the roles of the sexes in the evolution of Homo sapiens (or genus Homo)? Is it a topic that interests you to learn more about since your Master's thesis was on sexual dimorphism in hominids(iirc)? What's your opinion on the current scientific consensus; do you think it is an area that deserves more research or do you consider it settled science?
Could make for an interesting video and I'd love to hear your thoughts. P.S. Looking forward to more videos in your Rise and Reign of primates series :)
Kirby would eat the invincibility candy of hypocrisy and go on a rampage.
No, not our sweet boy Kirby! I can't bear the thought of him rampaging. I won't hear another word of this blasphemy!!!
