The evidence for evolution comes from every branch of science that remotely interacts with organisms. This includes, to name but a few, anatomy, biology, embryology, genetics, neurobiology, and paleontology - which in turn includes every sub-field of these sciences, such as anthropology, biogeography, chronological dating, comparative anatomy, fossils, molecular biology, and the list goes on and on and on and on…
The point being here is that everything we objectively know about the natural world both supports and improves the theory of evolution by natural selection, whether we like it or not! This is 9 Proofs of Evolution - Why Evolution is True.
Now to present all of the evidence for evolution would take eons, and would bore even Darwin, Dawkins and Jay Gould, and so if you’re really interested in reviewing all of the overwhelming evidence for evolution, then this video isn’t it… what it is, however, is just nine lines of evidence from several fields of study which by themselves alone make a very convincing case.
Needles to say, please watch the video for an adequate explanation of each line of evidence, as what follows is just a brief outline (due to a cap on description length).
1. Forelimbs of Whales:
Within their flippers, whales have, just like the forelimbs of land mammals, finger, hand, wrist, and arm bones, which can be easily explained if these bones are repurposed forelimbs, but are remarkably hard to explain if they’re not, as after all, these bones have very little in common with non-mammal fins, and yet a great deal in common with the forelimbs of land mammals.
2. Hind legs of Whales:
Whales have strange bones that look like shrivelled hip, thigh and shin bones where land mammals have hind legs, and some of these bones, such as these (on screen) from a bowhead whale, even have what appears to be a ball and socket joint… further still, palaeontologists have found numerous species within the fossil record that have unique similarities with whales, but also varying sizes of hind legs.
3. Left recurrent Laryngeal nerve in Mammals:
Without getting to technical, this nerve runs from the brain to the voice box, which should be a distance of a few inches, but instead it goes down into the chest, loops around a main artery, and then goes back up to the voice box, which in the case of the giraffe results in a 15 foot detour… “A mistake that no engineer would ever make!”
However, in animals without a neck, such as fish, the most direct route for this nerve is indeed by navigating round the artery, and hence, if mammals evolved from fish-like ancestors, we can easily explain why this absurd design exists. But if, on the other hand, we want to insist that it was deliberately created this way by a designer, then, well, we certainly can’t call this designer intelligent…
Unfortunately, due to a cap on description length, you’ll have to watch the video to see 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.

DNA Similarity Explained:
Within this video I mention that we share X% of our DNA with certain organisms, and I stress and emphasis the words ‘of comparable DNA’ because that exactly what it is… of the DNA ‘that is comparable’, we share X% with these organisms. However, there is plenty of DNA in all of these organisms that is so different to ours that it can’t be compared, and this is why some studies show as low as a 90% similarity between humans and chimps, while other studies show as high as 99% similarity. It all depends on how you measure it.

Sorry, was already subbed to both ...
+Rationality Rules At :45 seconds, you have a drawing that is shown to be fraudulent. Might want to edit that out.
1 and 2?) Similarities do not prove relation. The problem with whales is the tail. It cannot be explained with any evidence.
3) The nerve example does not prove evolution.
4 and 5)DNA does not prove relation either. Living in the same world would require similar DNA. Evolution itself is filled with Many hell of coincidences. The perhaps millions of morphological changes that are required to go from land to sea.
6) Dogs are NOT proof of evolution rather proof of natural selection because ALL of the genetic coding for traits already existed. No new DNA is created when breeding dogs. All that happens is proteins are being turned on or off. Whats more, no matter how much dogs change, they stay dogs.
7) The moths and crickets are just natural selection, Nothing more. No new DNA was created. The Greenish Warbler birds are still birds.
Your number sequence is a bit off and you never mentioned "Random genetic mutations over time is the cause of diversity". Good call sense it has no actual evidence that supports it.

Funny thing about "science," it [they / atheist scientists] has been forced to recall falsehoods far more often than theologians. Evolution is on revision 4, and the Big Bang is on Revision 5. Big universities are starting to take *abiogenesis* out of their text books as a debunked idea. Bible is on Rev-. And the better data in recent decades has not only debunked previous evolutionary "proofs" but also shown remarkable consistency with recent global flood and non-descendant speciation.
I was taught Evolution as fact at my Catholic School in the 1970s... what's happened to the world since then ?
globalization leading to fear of one's culture and views disapearing, which itself lead to the reject of all the others

There is NO truth at all in evolution - it cannot be tested and it cannot be observed so its NOT science - and as a philosophy it failed totally. NOT a shred of evidence to support it.
@@paulrobinson9318 Paul, not sure if your just "trolling" or you really don't know?. I'm willing to listen to your supportive claims with an alternate version. But like the "Kitzmiller v. Dover School District" trial : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitzmiller_v._Dover_Area_School_District were "creationism" was classified as Pseudoscience or Junk Science and holds no merit to be taught as any modern science or than supernatural fiction. I'm going to need strong a case (with evidence) in order to believe your opening statement. Now if you wish to show me evidence that has not been presented before that does not include "Special Pleading" or "Appeal to Ignorance". Then I'm willing to listen, but be forewarned EVERY crack pot Apoligest or Creationist has failed to supply any credible. testable or falsifiable evidence to support there claim.

Watching this video is hilarious because of the far stretched facts that "support" Evolution, and bull shit that keeps coming out of his mouth
Oh my gosh now I cannot unseen this-
@@SpysGT yep, it makes much more sense to believe in an invisible sky-man with a magic wand.
So dogs turned into dogs, moths turned into moths, crickets turn into crickets. Can you guess what the birds turned into, yep you guessed it, birds.
This doesn't contradict evolution. It demonstrates that creatures can't evolve out of a group but only diversify within it. This is why birds for example, are still considered a type of a dinosaur even though they are very different from some extinct dinosaurs. The only difference between "microevolution" and "macroevolution" is that the latter takes millions of years.
@@dibershai6009 haha huh? Adapations is not evolution. "it takes millions of years" its common excuse. Bcos... It cant be proved. Like the comment says, animals stayed the same animals.
Birds are not dinosaurs lol
@@johnblack2573 It can absolutely be proven that it takes millions of years for significant changes to happen. There are proofs of evolution in many field of biology such as comparative anatomy, palaeontology, genetics.
And it is known that birds are dinosaurs because the fossil record shows that dinosaurs shared many features with birds such as hollow bones, bipedalism, an avian respiratory system, and air sac system, and more. There were also many "missing links" between birds and dinosaurs and the famous Archaeopteryx is far from the only one.
@@dibershai6009ok first off evolution is a load of crap fake science. There is no mechanism for macro evolution. Your so called micro evolution is just adaptation nothing more. There are fish that the entire shape and bone structure can change in one generation depending on what and how it's feeding. That's not evolution it's already in the dna to do that. Common ancestry is a dream you can't prove it without dna. You can make fossils sing what ever song you want. On top of all that, you don't have millions of years in the fossil record. There have been over 250 soft tissue finds world wide now and those contain proteins like collagen and Actin. There is plenty of evidence showing how fast they break down. So the very fact we find those means all those fossils are just a few thousand years old. No more. Secular scientists are pointing out there couldnt be collagen in the fossils after 1 million years so even they know there is a problem. So there are multiple reasons why evolution is a lie can't happen and has never happened.
Exactly. These 9 proofs are 0 proofs, and 9 examples of microevolution plus some "god of the gaps" (we don't know how this happened if it wasn't evolution). Nothing new. Still no proof for a theory everyone learns in school is a fact.
"But evolution doesn't explain how life began, therefore its false!"
-Seemingly most apologists
@AllSeeingEye ofGod Your problem is that you have decided what the answer is and set out to pick fragments you think back up this view. Science looks at the world and tries to find out what they are observing and how to make sense of it. Like, if god was with Adam and Eve from the beginning, why was it that only the Twelve Tribes of Israel had knowledge of it? How would it make sense that, until about 2,000 years ago, nobody outside Israel knew of Christianity? Why are there no traces of it prior to about 1200 BCE anywhere? Speaking humans were around for about 50,000 years before any of them found your god. The Jews weren't Egyptian slaves, the Exodus didn't occur, no Exodus = no Moses, there was no global flood, the bible copied many stories that predated the Jews, nobody knows who wrote most of the bible. Nobody seemed to be aware that Jesus existed for decades after his death. Why would any rational person believe this?
Show one observable example of change of species. There should be millions for each species. Just need one
@AllSeeingEye ofGod evolution is real and does happen through mutations all the evidence proves that evolution is real
@Steve All of what? The universe? That's a field of study separate from evolution. Even the scientists in the field you may be referring to only have faceted knowledge and don't have a concrete explanation of the origin of the universe
Or you might be being sarcastic in that case just ignore me
@AllSeeingEye ofGod how DO you possible believe that the universe came from nothing then that nothing became an intelligent being.
It's funny how the theory that is most controversially debated is the one that has THE MOST evidence to support it. Honestly, if we didn't experience it daily even gravity wouldn't be this evident
Our attraction to the ground is not evidence for gravity, it is merely evidence for an attractive force. There are hundreds of attractive forces that science knows that could explain such a phenomenon, however, none are anywhere near as compelling as gravity. We actually know very little (comparatively) of how or why gravity works.
Wade Schipprack we know how gravity works and that it exists. it's simple
Really Mario, because the last I knew the general theory of relativity works on the basis of gravity being a consequence of space time curvature and not as a force as it acts under Newton's laws and this is why we are still having trouble fitting it in to quantum theory and can't resolve how it acts as the dominant force in the macro universe when it is so weak at a quantum level compared to the other three fundamental forces. As famous I have been able to establish, we don't appear to know what gravity 'is', we only have good descriptions of how it behaves. If it's simple though, maybe you could explain?
+epicdman813 He didn't provide evidence, he provided "proofs" He's attempting to argue it as a legal case, not a scientific case. If you scrutinized what was presented, theres not much there.
epicdman813 The building blocks of Science are based on observation- *YET Like A Solid Transitional Fossil, EVILOUTION HAS NEVER BEEN OBSERVED!*

But bananas are very different and most life needs death of others to survive.

Yes because our common ancestor is God

This blows my mind. I had this OMG moment where I realized how hard it is to understand evolution, and therefore I understand why people would rather be told they have purpose in life.
Yeah.... that's the BIG scary thing for a lot of humans. Somehow the existence of a 'natural' social contract with your fellow humans, isn't enough.
Much more 'pleasant' then, having to be 'told' what your supposed to do! (sarcasm off)
Evolution isn't hard to understand. Mutations happen. But DNA is not destiny. It does not determine biological form. It just holds the code for RNA sequences. So evolution happens but universal common descent doesn't have a mechanism capable of doing the job.
@@jamesscott3234 It's scary that people actually believe that nature can produce coded information processing systems like the genetic code.
@Ethan Wilde Go hump your strawman.
@Ethan Wilde Morons mock what they cannot understand.
Have you ever seen the domesticated Russian fox experiment? The most interesting to me is how when selecting for tameness they got some other traits that were not selected for like drooping ears, change in coat colors and curled tails. I think it demonstrates well that when one thing changes in an animal can have some interesting side effects
Am I the only one who has noticed that only creationists use the words "Macroevolution" and "Microevolution"?
And they use the word Kind instead of species or genus. It is a Christian word for the "kinds" of creatures their god created. All fictional, of course.
NevilleRhysBarnes I stand corrected! I may hear the terms later in my degree. (It's my first year)
they also like to use historical science and observational science.
Its an important distinction between micro and macro. Its a lesson in circular definitions. Micro-evolution is used to prove Macro-evolution because there's not much evidence for it. Then they say Micro is true because Macro is true.
They were used by biologists with different meanings before creationists started using them.
I did find Holy Koolaid a while ago and love his content but then I found your channel RR and you became my first creator of content that I supported. both of you are good and I use both channels in explaining things to my daughter.
Glad we can help : ) Cheers Ben!
Evidence for evolution comes from various fields of biology and geology, providing a comprehensive and well-supported understanding of how species change over time. Here are some key pieces of evidence:
1. Fossil Record
Transitional Fossils: Fossils that show intermediate states between an ancestral form and that of its descendants. Examples include the transition from fish to amphibians (Tiktaalik), reptiles to birds (Archaeopteryx), and land mammals to whales (Ambulocetus).
Stratigraphy: Fossils found in different geological layers demonstrate a timeline of gradual change, with simpler organisms found in older layers and more complex ones in newer layers.
2. Comparative Anatomy
Homologous Structures: Body parts that are similar in structure but may serve different functions in different species, indicating a common ancestor. For example, the forelimbs of humans, cats, whales, and bats.
Vestigial Structures: Body parts that have lost their original function through evolution. Examples include the human appendix, the pelvis in whales, and the wings of flightless birds like ostriches.
3. Comparative Embryology
Embryonic Development: Similarities in the early stages of development in different species suggest a common ancestry. For instance, vertebrate embryos exhibit pharyngeal pouches (which develop into gills in fish and parts of the ear and throat in mammals).
4. Molecular Biology
DNA and Protein Similarities: The genetic code is universal among all living organisms, and closely related species have more similar DNA sequences. Comparisons of specific genes (like the cytochrome c gene) and proteins (like hemoglobin) show degrees of relatedness.
Endogenous Retroviruses (ERVs): These are viral sequences that have become part of the genome. Shared ERVs in the same genomic locations among different species indicate common ancestry.
5. Biogeography
Geographic Distribution: The distribution of species around the world reflects their evolutionary history. For example, the unique species found on islands (like the finches of the Galápagos Islands) demonstrate adaptive radiation from a common ancestor.
Plate Tectonics: The movement of continents explains the historical distribution of species. Fossils of the same species found on different continents support the idea that these continents were once connected.
6. Direct Observation
Microevolution: Changes within a species can be directly observed. Examples include the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria, pesticide resistance in insects, and changes in the beak sizes of finches documented by Peter and Rosemary Grant in the Galápagos Islands.
Speciation Events: New species have been observed forming in real-time, such as the apple maggot fly, which shifted from hawthorn trees to apple trees, leading to reproductive isolation and the beginnings of speciation.
7. Experimental Evidence
Artificial Selection: Selective breeding in plants and animals demonstrates how selection can lead to significant changes over relatively short periods. Dogs, for example, have been bred for various traits resulting in a wide variety of breeds from a common ancestor.
These lines of evidence collectively support the theory of evolution, demonstrating how species have adapted and changed over time through natural processes.

First off' I wanted to let you know that Thomas sent me. Second' I loved your video and look forward to more. Also Darwin's finches and ferns are a great example of evolution that is so fast you can witness the oscillation over a very few generations and is where he discovered the truth of evolution! Keep up the good work!
“DNA is the greatest troll in history.”
This is the quote I will remember you for
hhhhhhh. the whole video debunked by three statements:
first: similarities don't means evolution. I can iphone-5 is not evolution of iphone-4. both made separately.
second: from the beginning of evolution theory, they every time claim the designer isn't intelligent because they don't know the purpose of something inside a creation but after some years, scientists discover the purpose but these evolutionary claim new things because they don't know. if someone goes back and look at what they had said without purpose, he will laugh because discoveries show they are so important.
Third: we don't have a problem in natural selection and mutations. However, if a manufacturer makes two types of iphone, then we keep destroying one type. this isn't evolution. Evolution means we will a get a Samsung from these iphones.
@@theMkawi Evolution is bunk because of... iPhones? Incredible. Get that shit peer-reviewed, my friend!
@@theMkawi I agree with you on the iPhone thingy. It's also similar to Bill Gates various versions of windows. It looks like Darwinian evolution. It looks like there is design in it.

The fact that animals have similarities does not imply that they came from a common ancestor. It fits into the idea of evolution but that’s all.
yes it does
it is the most loical explanation
@@Zanta100 it’s not logical at all to assume they have a common ancestor based off of similarities. There are other explanations and saying your explanation is the most logical doesn’t prove that it the correct one.
@@arczisdonald true
it alone doesnt prove anything
the rest of the massive mounbtain of evidence for it together with this does
@@Zanta100 that doesn’t even count as evidence. There are too many possible explanations and you haven’t provided proof that yours is best. It doesnt matter how many other pieces of “evidence” you have. My point still stands.
True, a blue jay is similar to a fish that is colored blue doesnt entail they are in the same species but if you take a look at each of them carefully by using the tons of evidence (yes it is and just putting ("") these things doesnt disprove them when they are verified by non religious to religious people.) The vestigial organs and other things also they were coincidentally in the same place having a continous location. So if by just a thought that there was a god who still created other living beings with vestigial organs that are detriment to the being that wouldnt be inteligent nor saying this god was the one saying he just created us from dust and ribs i dont think the idea of because thats what fits in evolution because we have more evidence on this than that dust and ribs story for convenience and that were created by the image of god and chimpanzees are 97% of that image.
Hey RR :) I've been going into biology and evolution theory quite intensively for the last couple of weeks and wondered whether you are a darwinist/new synthesist or "McClintockist". Greetings from Switzerland.
This video has been around years and I've only just found it. Glad I did. Straight into my favourites.
it's funny how fundamentalists and literalists say that evolution is false, but believe that the serpent in the garden of eden (genesis) evolved into a seven-headed dragon (book of revelation) because it is written in their scriptures.
What you mean ?
They actually beileve that the talking snake became an invisble demon called satan that tells you to do bad stuff. But its funny bc the bible never say anything about that. Proof that beilevers just make stuff up hence their name.
Great content. Long time viewer of Holy Koolaid. I will be watching more of your videos.
Always love finding channels like yours sir. Cheers!
Rationality Rules, thank you for this video. I just heard of you through holy koolaid. This video is not just educational but it was entertaining as well.
You are a smart guy (I'm a fan and subscriber), so don't be sloppy in your language by using the word "proofs". Evolution is a scientific fact and the theory of evolution is the best explanation of that fact. It is supported by an "overwhelming preponderance of evidence" and is accepted by the vast majority of experts but it has never been "proved" and never will be.
There are two languages. One of science, and one of the colloquial. If I'm trying to communicate with the people, I'll respectfully speak their language :)
Love you, but why invite the obvious comments from creationists? If I can see it (I spend too much time reading their shite) then so can they. Strictly speaking they are correct and when they win one point it makes further points easier to win. Imagine this conversation. " those evolutionists are so arrogant they deny scientific rigour and say they can "prove" evolution. Look here's a popular "scientific atheist" who gives proofs for a scientific theory. Conclusion, evolution is not a science it is a religion/dogma/ideology. Oh Fuck I can already see my comment (out of context of course) in a creationist blog (did I mention You are great and don't stop what you're doing!)
OK. BUT! imagine this conversation (and your part in it). Evolution isn't science. Science is the pursuit of knowledge and the knowledge is provisional and based on current evidence and understanding. So science can never be proved only disproved. Yet here we have popular youtube atheist "rationality rules" claiming "proofs" for a scientific theory. This "proves" (sic) that evolution is dogma/ideology/religion/ non science/whatever. Don't give them fodder for their nonsense but also don't take it personally, I love your work and style and it is a small (hopefully constructive) criticism..

If I were a designer of nerves serving the heart and voice box, I would want to reduce the tension load on the nerve. I would give the nerves strength by having both nerves attached together. In order to keep the voice box nerve from being pulled off the voice box, I would stabilize it by having it attached to the vagus nerve and coming from below. I would put a little message in the design that says "Out of the abundance of the Heart the mouth speaks".
Thats your weak explanation for it? You still didn't even address the fact that its a trait derived from our ancient fish ancestors. Why doesn't your God just tell you why he made such an extremely rubbish designed body? Oh wait, he can't

Atheism exists to ignore the rationality of morality- if there is no God, there is no morality. Then empty all of the prisons in the world and stop dictating to anyone ever regarding right and wrong. If there is no standard for truth then set those poor rapists, murderers and child molesters free.

*What did you just say?!*
NOW THAT'S JUST BEING RUDE!
how is it rude if it isnt real in the first place, you just believe it exists
Christians:
*"ThAt IsNt EvIdEnCe"*
Christian here, evolution is true
Is the 50% that we have in common with bananas specifically active genes or the entire gene sequence?
I heard that ferns have a lot of DNA so I was wondering if an animal had twice as much DNA would that be where the 50% came from or are they only counting active genes?
Drug resistant bacteria might be a good line of argument. The harvard experiment with varying concentrations of antibiotic is a nice demonstration.
as i far as i read charles darwin never said that we came from apes, but he said we have the bit same dna with apes family
Darwin predates our knowledge of DNA. He was unaware of it's existence.
0:45 Why? Why in the world would you use (a modified version) of Haeckel's images of embryos, which are known to be inaccurate? You bent over backwards to give Creationists an easy target.
What do you mean by “inaccurate” implying evolution is false? If that’s the case I really want to see your source of that.
@@jonasg.bisgaard1086 " implying evolution is false?"
I didn't imply evolution is false. Using Haeckel's images of embryos - which are known to be inaccurate - gives Creationists an easy target. There are actual photos of actual embryos that make the point much better.
The most pressing issue against evolution is never addressed, that is how does new information arise in organisms to produce more complex organisms
6:18 also both wales and hippos have internal testicles. In fact, as far as i remember they are only 2 group of mammals have this treat.

Why am i watching this? I've already studied biology and evolution... This is boring to me for the most part.
Gotta keep my anti creationists arguments sharp.
Skinnymarks, if you want to keep your arguments sharp then tell me how the universe came about naturally.
Tell me how life first came about, if you can’t, why should I believe in materialism?
John Daedalus, there are a few theories out there with some potential but the problem is we are teaching these theories as facts when they have come nowhere near proving naturalism correct.
There is simply too much extrapolation and theorizing being taught as facts when they simply aren’t yet. People are also taught that supernaturalism is simply stupid and wrong even though naturalists have come nowhere close to proving they are correct.
This is what troubles me about the whole natural/supernatural debate. This is why I asked the questions I did. Naturalists often laugh at the straight forward answers given by religion and philosophy but always fail to give the same straight forward answers while insisting the other two studies are wrong.
@@phillipharrington9201 Philosophy is not 'spiritual' or 'supernatural'. Naturalism is a form of philosophy in itself
@@phillipharrington9201 And the reason why people think supernaturalism is stupid is because the supernatural has never done anything tangible or obervable to make us believe it is real
Ducky McDuckface, naturalism has never come through on any of its claims about the origin of life or the universe. The Bible, in particular, serves as historical records and eyewitness accounts to supernatural events. Darwinism and naturalism have nether of these things going for them.
Unless you have disproven every last account of supernatural activity ever reported then you cannot say it has not happened. I agree that the supernatural is more irregular than natural processes but that does not mean it has not happened.
There is plenty of archeology to support Biblical claims about the past but unless you have disproven all of them you can’t say it never occurred.
Just because you have not witnessed the supernatural doesn’t mean someone else has not.
Nothing is more eye opening than this type of information and evidence regarding related biological evolution we share with other species and well presented.
You do realize there are so many problems with this argument right? one of them being similarities in no way are prove of ancestry, how do you know an intelligent designer didn't use the same blueprint RIDICLOUS
@rationalityrules It might be useful to add a little visual reference to live-bearers in the video.
Some people might hear about instances of those and conclude the video is incorrect.
the other day i had an argument vs someone who studied biochem. this student of biochem is skeptical about evolution. my brain almost broke in half when i found out. in case you are not aware, in biochemistry, we study a lot of genomics/proteomics. there is no other more convincing line of evidence for evolution than genomics and proteomics.
It is great to see a new generation of rational people armed with facts, technology, enthusiasm and integrity.
I've read so much evolution that the arguments presented are nothing new to me, however, the presentation is what sells it. I do indeed plan on making a video about vestiges, which could be, if you and I are still going to collaborate, the topic of choice.
6:32 He claims that the similarities between certain animals point to a common ancestor. Has he never thought about that statement? I see these similarities for a proof of an intelligent designer!
Hey Stephen,
I can tell you watched the videos on youtube that I did. You should name the sources in advance, it is okay to make an own video about it, but I think it is more authentic to point to the source, and youtube is a damn good one, a surrogate for school education and beyond.
What DID you study?! Such general scientific knowledge!
The word 'proof' should never be used outside the world of mathematics

I agree but Rationality rules was making a legal case not a scientific one.

It's astonishing that this explanation is even necessary these days!
It amazes me, that we now live in a day and age that Evolution needs to be proven, rather than just the accepted facts of the world.

I'll bet that you are not able to systematically lay on the table how life began and arrived to where we are today. Your very first dilemma is to find a way to override the first law of thermodynamics.
Evolutionists have to make a leap of faith to go from nothing......to an existent universe. By the way, the word universe is a very interesting study. Herminudics break it down to "a single spoken verse." Bible says that God spoke the universe into existence. If God is God, He has the authority to override the first law of thermodynamics. If not, then He is BOUND to creation and does not deserve to be worshiped.
Your right I could not, I'm no scientist. but I think you are making assumptions. first, universe comes from the latin universum meaning all together or turned into one. second nothing to something. I don't think that's the case, there was something I'm sure, non living matter to living matter is no stretch. third yes energy cannot be created nor destroyed but it can change. light to heat to kinetic to any other form of energy. it does not have to be overridden. and lastly, evolution is not abiogenesis.
@blue main
It is not a fact and is not true, biological evolution is a loaded word with partial truths but darwins evolution of all living organisms on Earth having a common ancestor is false!

and scientific facts mentioned in the Bible before their human discovery by a divine influence,

For example…..
1. The singing stars. Job 38:7 declares the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God
shouted for joy. It sounds like a bit of Bible poetry but not much more. After all, stars shine,
not sing, right? Well, it turns out scientists have been able to convert patterns from start
light into audio wavelengths, according to Discovery News. The “amount of hiss” in the audio
reportedly allows scientists to measure the surface gravity on a star and gauge where it is in
its stellar evolution.
2. Weight of the winds. In Job 28:25, we are told that God weighed out the wind. This one may be
no more self-evident to us than it was to an ancient Israelite reader of this text. But, we know
from modern science that air, since it does have mass, weighs something. You might be surprised
to know how much though: an estimated one ton of air is weighing down on shoulders, according to
this science site (which explains that we don’t feel it because the air is exerting its force in
all directions). This is pretty basic stuff for modern scientists, but it’s quite a credit to the
inerrancy of Scripture that the author of Job got it right so long ago (approximately in the
second millennium BC).
3. A massive fountain of water deep beneath the Earth!!! Genesis 7:11 "In the six hundredth year
of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the
fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened."

"Scientists dig the world’s deepest hole - and find ‘water from NOAH’S FLOOD’ at the bottom The
revelation also reportedly "disproves the myth" that the earth is made up of dry rocky layers"
All these would stand the scrutiny of a judge and jury for the case of a creator Gods existence
and the legitimacy of the Christian Faith!!!
But I am feeling generous so I will give you two more great forms of evidence, how about this
book where a forensic officer who is atheist studies and researches the Bible to see if it proves
a historical Jesus and if he was murdered wrongfully?

afterward he became Christian!!!
Also, why don't you just pray to God yourself and ask him if he is real? What more can I say???
Then you would have
personal evidence and proof of Gods interaction yourself.....
I mean, there is actually way way way more evidence for God than this but it either would go over
your head or you would not understand it properly and you would question it, but this is really
solid evidence and proof I have given you up above that would hold up in a court of
law........... if you decide to RUN from it, at
least admit to yourself that is what you are doing........

else? If you believe they are all something else then what do you think they all are then?***

Of course, creationists say the ring species example doesn't prove anything. They're still birds. They aren't a different "kind." yada yada yada.
How does you repeating it and then saying yada yada yada after it explain how they are wrong?
@@mjazzguitar Seriously? How’s your comprehension? Not too good? Ow well. Creationists always repeat (therefore the “yada yada yada”) the same tired old “kind” argument that says species always only produce their own “kind.” They can’t define “kind” because it isn’t a species term used in biology, but they use it to try to debunk the fact that birds can evolve into something other than a bird. In fact what they’re dead wrong about is that “producing their own kind” is talking about giving birth to, not evolving into over very long periods.

@@sombodysdad which evolution mechanism you really know?
@@StopTeoriomSpiskowym Natural selection, which is the elimination of the less fit in a population. It is differential reproduction due to heritable random, as in chance, mutation. Then there is genetic drift, which also involves those random mutations. Epigenetic which has environmental factors allowing different genes to be expressed. Endosymbiosis events in which one or more organisms live in harmony inside another. Horizontal or lateral gene transfer. None of which has been shown to be able to produce a platypus

I am a bit new to this evolution stuff and while I was watching the video I asked myself a question in evidence number 5. Why hasn’t the Hippo evolved like the whale did? Or is it possible that the hippo isn’t done evolving and could end up something like the whale in the distant future?
nothing is done evolving
but the hippo is in a good state for its environment so the environmental pressure needed for evolution isnt there
Evolution is a continuous process without an end. As long as organisms reproduce, evolution occurs.
Also, evolution by natural selection relies on environmental pressures. Hippos simply didn't have the same pressures as early whales did

The real and natural facts on other hand are very real, they are not dreams, the observable reality is not a dream. And evolution is not a "so-called facts" evolution is a fact. Delete the "so-called" before the word facts because there is absolutely nothing "so-called" in evolution.
