- Lilandra is hostess of the n0nes, / th3n0nes
This was the day after we demonstrated outside the Texas Home School Coalition conference, and an hour or so before we both gave our lectures at the Houston Museum of Natural Science.
My mother used to say, behind every great man there is a great woman.
Thanks AronRa! I really enjoy and learn a lot from watching your videos. You have definitely helped me solidify my understanding of the world around me.
Congrats Mrs Ra (Lilandra) on your recent 'coming into the public light', and your less recent 'coming into the rational light'.
Be strong. Think deep. Defend truth.
So proud to be Texan just like you two. So proud of you both.
You two are an awesome couple. I wish you the very best in life.
I'm glad Lilandra has come out from behind the scenes.
Thank you for posting this video.
Bravo. Hello, Lilandra, so glad to meet you, honey. Thank you AronRa for presenting this video.
I love her voice, it's so cute. ^__^
'God bless' them both...
Nice to see your wife get up and talk, great material as always.
Aron it's a very brave thing your wife does. Good on both of you.
Bio-engineering & Biology major here. It's like all of the work we do, all of the countless hours of calculus and organic chemistry that we pour into learning, is worthless to them. It's a slap to the face of scientists and engineers everywhere.
Aron, I love her too.Great work both of you.
you guys rock. keep up the awesomeness.
Beautiful talk, man.
Beautiful.
I want to jump through the computer screen and give AronRa & his wife a big hug!
Not to often you hear of lovely stories like this these days. >_
Liking Mrs Ra, quite the new dynamic duo!
Here's to Aronra's better half!
*Raises a glass higher than the heavens*
Thank you both for you're hard work. Good luck in the future! :)
Great video, thanks
Great presentation. Thanks for all your work.
I'm totally fangirling right now. Aron and his wife make an adorable couple.
Loved this upload! You guys look really happy together - sounds like you have a ball!
You two rock!!
Lol, I don't know why but the thought of Vlad "The Impaler" Tepes being put out by not having a podium to lean on is incredibly funny :P
OMFG! Before the actual video, there was an ad for "10 must-sees in the Holy land", talking about archeological evidence that a specific site was where Jesus was baptized.
The irony! It burns!
I just remembered, I had a teacher with almost every feature of her, only her hair was brown/dark-blond and she was Asian/Hawaiian
Thanks for posting Aron, and introducing us to your wife, she's lovely. You're a good team.
Awesome. stay strong.
Love your perspectives. If you're ever in tge Bay Area your first beer is on me.
Awesome.
Thanks for introducing your lovely better half AronRa, it was and is a pleasure. You guys look like you're a match made in hea... oh wait!
Your wife is a sweetheart. She reminds me of my stepmom.
lilandra bringing the polite smackdown!
Well said.
That would drive me nuts having to stand there with no podium to lean on.
I was arguing with one theist and I mentioned Inanimate matter. He replied that there was no such thing as "Inanimate matter" because "it all moves around".
Evolution, in the sense of evolutionary biology, absolutely happened and has been more than proven and demonstrated. In fact, descent with modification is one of the most reliably established facts in science. The discovery of genetics has strengthened, not weakened it.
You can fool yourself but you can't disprove evolution by merely redefining it as something it is not, i.e. "evolutionism." If evolutionism, as you have defined it, "never happened," how is it "a burden on scientific research"?
They should double-date. That would make my life complete.
I believe that "truvelocity" is addressing the guy you replied to, but clicked you accidentally.
Hi, could you post a link to the nuns or nons podcast in the description. You may have but the ipad UA-cam app just got a wonky update. Nice video.
It's possible under certain limited circumstances. It does not (to our knowledge) include the general idea of a divine being because that could by definition disobey all rules. In essence to prove nonexistence one has to show that it either contradicts the axioms (as in math) or that 'the seat is already taken', i.e.the existence of X would require Y to be absent while Y is indisputably present.
Wow, sometimes 1+1>2 (for sufficiently big values of 1)!
that could be due to him having to rebuild the awning afterwards.
I'm pretty sure that clams and other shellfish are capable of locomotion.
Also, during a global flood I would expect some land animals to be knocked unconscious or killed in various stages of the flood from beginning to end.
I saw an ad on your youtube video for the first few seconds with a woman talking about how she is in Nazareth, but Nazareth never existed during the time that Jesus was supposed to have existed. Oh, the irony to hear her state that Jesus saw those beautiful mountains in Nazareth. Riiiight.
Just curious, was that last bit refrenecing the Grateful Dead, particularly the whole Pass It On bit regarding Box Of Rain?
Chewbacca? I thought it was cousin It! LOL
How is that for a crazy coincidence when you notice the clock on the wall behind Lilandra and Aron happens to be the same time as my computer.
Grumpy Santa Hallelujah!! Praise Coincidence.
As a part-time audio technician, I need to suggest that the microphones not be pointing at the loudspeakers. Aron's is a little offset, but Lilandra's is pointed directly at the loudspeaker.
I left creationism and became an atheist, because I accepted the Bible as a package deal. Interested in science, cosmology in particular, I found the claim that the universe is billions of years old. First, I denied it outright. Then I thought that it was just God's way of testing us. Then I bothered to inquire just how scientists knew that the universe is billions of years old. Suprise, suprise! The scientists actually do know what they're talking about, and they have the evidence to back it up. Creationists had been lying to me the entire time. Unaware that "just a theory" in science is the highest honor that your idea can be given, creationists have been unknowingly praising scientists, because "just a theory" means that the theory is still open to being disproven.... BUT HAS NOT!
Then I started noticing the contradictions elsewhere in the Bible. It is rife with contradictions. For instance, the many genealogies which DO NOT AGREE. The NT claims that God is loving, yet the OT shows the complete opposite. Maybe God changed his mind and is a recovering genocidal maniac, NO! The NT claims that God is unchanging. God in the OT claims that his is the ONLY God, and they there is none sitting beside him, YET, in the NT, Jesus claims that not only is he the son of God, but he sits at the right hand of God. And the list goes on...
I heard Ken Ham and others are trying to get a 3D creationism movie into theaters. How do creationists get funding for this?
I agree the fact of evolution is agnostic to the existence of a diety or dieties. However, it does disprove specific claims about specific dieties such as the Christian god, Hindu god(s), etc.
Awesome. : )
I got an ad with a URL I won't reproduce here for a daily bible reading app. I know there are some Christians who watch these videos, but shouldn't you make the most of your marketing budget? I hope this wasn't included because of some dysfunctional Google algorithm.
That also takes molecular biology, quantum mechanics, astronomy, nanotechnology, and geophysics of your "science" list. Observation doesn't mean you watched something happen in real time. Observation is intertwined with strong inference. In fact, you don't observe anything directly or in real time. Everything is a delayed signal in your brain that was triggered by external stimuli. So, actually nothing is science according to your criteria.
My favorite power couple:-)
Probably not. There are the wasp videos where he is disposing of them by hand, rather than unloading a shotgun on them.
Geophysics is not repeatable in the sense that you can set up earthquake and/or continental plate shifting experiments. It's purely observational just like astronomy. Biological evolution is not only observable but repeatable and testable. Just to get you started heres a paper you might be interested in: Long-term experimental evolution in Escherichia coli. I. Adaptation and divergence during 2,000 generations. The PI was Richard Lenski.
Now would be the time to move the goal post.
Just a quick question for you guys. How much do you spend on hair care products???? ;-)
The main, and basic difference between religion and science is simple: No matter if you are Christian, Hindu or Muslim, atheist, or whatever else: if you research something - like gravity or the diversity of biological life - scientifically and without preconseptions, you will all get the same answer.
Holy cow pie! Look out world here comes, The Batman & Wonder Woman of science, in....... ! Texas!!!. I love this couple. Well got 'a run to church and light a candle for texas With all my love. Mr. Natural (% [Natch tips his hat to the Lady & shacks AronRas hand]
Because I've gone my entire life without needing a gun, I've never known anyone who ever needed a gun and most gun owners live in areas of low crime, like in rural townships where the only crime is mostly drunken people shooting their spouses yet they spend $1000s on guns, accessories, ammo and range memberships so they can protect their $300 TV. I said most, not all.
Haha. Complain to the author! That was a great remark.
you live in Houston? (i do).....when will you be speaking in public again? i want to attend!
Does anyone have a link to the Aron Ra vs Ramzi debate?
Does she have her own channel?
Why is such a thing impolite? And why does one's relative location to your own change this?
I've known others to say the same thing, and I've never understood why they think this.
How did a magic man in the sky make everything?
If you'd ask Richard Dawkins, he'd disagree personally but it's clear that plenty of people are capable of believing in both like there is no conflict.
Evolution doesn't disprove god, but it does tear a young earth ideology to shreds by showing that the Human race is around 200,000 yrs. old.
Wouldn't marine invertebrates be able to maneuver better in water than land animals?
Once again, maths are not science. The two have completely separate methodologies.
The theory of evolution has boosted our understanding of the living natural world far beyond any other theory in the life sciences. Once again, evolution allows us to make testable hypothesis that are generally very accurate. Also, I don't know why you would think Dawkins is run of the mill. Dawkins is a brilliant biologist that revolutionized the way many think about natural selection in "The Selfish Gene".
Aron?! You're advertising now? Did you know that the advertisement on this video was a religious indoctrination video talking about Jesus? LOL! How funny.
@ 20:49 - I would have been tempted to reply, "Sounds like the kids are picking up the information on evolution far more quickly than the creation mythology..."
So... what mechanism could force such a change in 4300 years without the whole planet dying as aside from the planet being drowned from magically spawned water?
Tell that to the ring species, the fossils, the DNA, the rock layers, the radioactive decay, the ocean floor, the phylogeny, and the scientists who challenge their understanding of reality every single day!
Illusions lives in the heart of the ill-taught, for time exists in different rationality through a pardoned convenience, nuance is the thought people must take up when talking of religion; it is just a disdain that loses prospect in the correspondence of thought . . . Knowledge can exist though its prospects do not. You can look at it like a poison invading the body . . . It tends to infect the mind more than the body, illusion is a strong mirror! Mirrors are meant to scatter . . .
Christianity is not a death cult but a cult of life triumph over death, of love over hate, of light over darkness. Christ did not die, thats the all point, its the basis of Christianity.
"An event that happened yesterday is forever lost to observational science." So if a person dies alone in his home and his body is not discovered for over 24 hours, it didn't happen? Believe it or not there are methods that can determine when that person died. That is basic compared to the methods used in determining the age of fossils, rock layers and the like.
I like this woman's message, but how does she teach? She is the most soft-spoken person I've ever seen speak publicly. How do her students hear anything she says?
Yeah, I know. What about it?
ya, kind of like penn and teller. ;)
Oh shit that was so funny.
If you're right, there should be absolutely no genetic ties between humans and any other animal on earth. But to the contrary, we've found genetic ties between humans and EVERY other animal on earth. And every plant, for that matter.
In the words of Jane Goodall: "You can't imagine how wrong you are."
'Believe the Bible, even the parts you know are wrong.' Very telling
Don't you mean a coffin, Dracula?!?
sounds like we have a kent hovind student here. lol
For those of you that can hear dog whistles, there is some nasty high pitch feed back in this vid.
I agree with you in theory, it's just that many theists have such a fluid concept of their own religion that it doesn't matter how contradictory reality is to their holy books, they'll just continue believing anyway. So while evolution does disprove a number of religions, it's unfortunately rarely useful for that purpose among the faithful. That's why I kinda don't bother connecting the two; at least that way we can avoid the sorts of false dichotomies theists tend to use.
already seen it....hmm I'm following Aron way too closely :P
You can't put a microphone 5 feet in front of the PA speaker. Come on guys.
You messed the point. dionstreslecki implied on his last sentence that the first organisms reproduced sexually rather than asexually. "There was only one mating couple."
Oh, & someone already corrected me about there being some microorganism that reproduce sexually. Why repeat what the other guy said, especially in such a rude manor?
remember, the comments by dionstrezlecki are not spam...they are just fucking wrong and need to be pointed out. dont spam them..just down vote them.
well, part of what you are missing is that god is not necessarily tied to the respective cults. if their magical sky daddy is only who and what he/she/it/them is/are because of their anachronistic books of fables and fairy tales then yes, it does disprove it. but that is thru their myths of creation which may or may not be tied to their magical sky daddy. if you cannot differentiate between the cult and magical sky daddy then it does. if they are kept separate then no, it does not disprove it.
she's your wife?!
I love asking creationists; 'If creationism is true and evolution is false. Why isn't creationism used as the basis in life saving bio research and the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry'...
The typical response I receive is either silence from being blindsided, or claims of a world wide conspiracy.
2 AronRa >> Brah, let me get this straight. You won the day by being the last brain/man standing in the debate AND you got the very fine girl in the end?? After watching your series on evolution I know you were not one to be trifled with but this ending is the stuff of legends. I know I will never be able to top this story so there is only one path left for me. In the Sacred Name of The FSM I pledge fealty to Master AronRa & accept my new life as His Minion. Tommy J, AKA - TheAssholeAtheist ; )
I've heard atheists quote Ken Ham saying that and adding that it might be the one truthful thing Ken Ham has ever said lol
