Like, come on, wouldn't you take shortcuts to make new animals by stretching out philanges of a human to make bat wings? He also allowed for animals to evolve to suit the constantly changing environments. Cause let's be real, if animals couldn't evolve, they would die just a few generations into the creation.

      @@thx4chrckingin It would take GOD himself to tell believers he wasn't real, but even then if GOD himself told a believer he wasn't real, they still wouldn't believe it because he just told them.
      Fact is that according to the bible at least Humans were a specific creation made from scratch out of the dust of the ground. According to bible chronology that was around 7016 years ago, give or take 100 years or so because of the way they rounded number off. Josh was 77 when he fathered John, John was 62, when he fathered Bob, etc. So there is no way of knowing if Josh was almost 78 adding almost an entire year to the timeline. Still it gets us close.
      So if GOD magically created humans around 7,000 years ago from dust then we shouldn't have any pollution from other lifeforms in our DNA. Instead what we see is that the vast majority of our DNA is actually left over junk from evolution or infection. We have junk DNA from viruses that haven't existed on Earth for 300,000 years. So why would GOD ALMIGHTY intentionally and specifically create humans from scratch 7,000 years ago and again, intentionally and specifically fill 80% of our DNA with junk from extinct species of animals and diseases that haven't existed for hundreds of thousands of years. Why would we even need DNA coding that has no contribution whatsoever to who we are, how we grow etc. It would be like Microsoft releasing a brand new version of windows not based at all on previous version but including 5 times as much data in the form of tiny torn off pieces of photos that are meaningless and useless.
      If god existed and he actually did that on purpose, it would certainly take out the "intelligent" part of his intelligent design.
      Ultimately people don't want to be alone. So they create an imaginary friend that is always with them. They dont want to be scared, certainly not scared of the future or death. So they imagine their friend has all the answers and will somehow preserve them in a magical form after their life ends. They want their enemies to suffer. So they imagine their friend is vengeful and protective of them. Even to the point of punishing your enemies for eternity in a horrible and disgusting manner. They miss their friends and family who have died, so they imagine their friend will somehow reunite them because its easier than accepting death, grieving, and moving on. They can't logically justify why they think some things are right and others are wrong so they give credit for their moral choices to their imaginary friend which they feel confirms their choices. Much like a child saying "im right arnt i mom, arn't I, Mom! arn't I right?" Except that their mom actually exist and that her agreement doesn't establish an opinion as fact.
      While most of us give up imaginary friends as we grow up, some have dove so deeply into the role that they retain these beliefs as adults reinforced by other adults who didn't want to give up their childish fantasies either. Inevitably in every situation where there is an adult child running loose in the world or worse many, there will be those who take advantage of them. Their imaginary friend becomes a sort of security blanket. So the predator, usually call a preacher, paster, father, etc. Basically tells them that their security blanket will be taken from them and they will be sad, UNLESS you do what the predator says. This usually included nothing more than sitting through hours of boredom while they explain all the ways you can lose your security blanket and worse be punished forever, but also included indentured unpaid servitude. Basically legal slave labor because it is technically voluntary even though its actually worse than being forced at gun point since they are threatening your "SOUL" for "all eternity". Also very common is armed robbery. This again is where they threaten your "soul" which they have convinced you is the essence of who you are beyond your body with eternal damnation and torture unless you "please god" by giving this con artist your money.
      Its almost funny in a sick sort of way that we live in a society that would never stand by and allow a child to be taken advantage of by a predator, but if you are unable to shed childish beliefs as an adult its somehow ok not only to do it to individuals but to 10s of millions of people all at once.

      @@K162KingPin Here I disagree. I 100% believe God is real. Firstly, the Bible says that God built the world in 7 days, but it also says a day for him can be a millennium for us. The world is definitely older than that. Also, the very nature of evolution is one that God himself used to give color to our world. Our DNA has been changing, one example being that humans were much shorter back then, and that's all of his plan.
      Thing is, I've seen too many miracles, too many people in utter joy at knowing Him to not believe he exists. There's too much evidence. Besides, even if I'm wrong, I would have lived my life better because of it. If I'm wrong, oh well. Bit if you're wrong... well... it's not gonna look good for you

      Would be cool to research their hormonal systems and see if their CNS activates their roll (like a reflex) because of the Co2 in their blood.
      Im guessing they have a similar hormonal system to humans where higher Co2 in the blood gives the diafragma a autonomous reflex to expand, but instead of lungs they ofcourse roll.

      Yes, they said they made a specialized chamber to get the shot, so it is probably a plexiglass box filled with snow and rocks with an insect they found already frozen and just waited until the temperature was right to start recording with the cameras in perfect positions. That kind of thing cannot be viewed in nature so perfectly with their kind of time constraints and budget.
