    Dr. Wood, I enjoyed your video. Scientists who believe in God are so rare, since they are persona non grata in their field and in the academic world. May God continue to use you to help us understand His creation.

      They are growing in number, darwinism has been abandoned by the royal society (the people who funded darwin's voyage) as it doesn't gel.
      God is restoring his word and we are fortunate enough to be living in these times as we can witness it.

    Youre right. We gotta love BioLogos and people like them though they frustrate us. Thanks for pointing that out. We left a church of 17 years because it came out that the pastor, who we had known many years and love (and his family), believed the nonsense & was subtly trying to teach it. Fast talk. Im the only one that I know of that figured it out. It’s rough.

    How can we love others through God's creation? Share the wonders of how he created and sustains the universe, not through blind, random chance and processes and eons of time, but in HIS time, by his hand, for his glory! Showing how his irreducible complexity is engineered into all things, living or not.

      @@peteconrad2077 Silent mutations mean detrimental mutations (all or nearly all are bad) pile up despite natural selection. Natural selection is a preserving force which staves off the true nature of mutation, which is, genetic decay. It works best for large populations, but it cannot save small populations. Small gene pools aka inbreeding amplify mutations within the population, leading to horrible diseases, and in some cases that population dies out.
      When I studied biology in secular college, even the examples of "beneficial" mutations I was taught were losses of information.

      Most mutations are neutral, having no expressed effect. Negative ones, if the affect survival are selected out.
      It is obvious that it’s not a loss of information. Some mutations add alleles, so pretty change an existing gene and others delete. Only de,toons result in loss of information.

      @@peteconrad2077 All "neutral" mutations are a burden. Just because they don't cause enough of a problem at first to significantly lower survival doesn't make it okay. The more this happens, the more small malfunctions on recessive traits are likely to be passed on and this genetic baggage accumulates in the gene pool. Only expressed genes can be selected against, and expression of these traits can skip multiple generations, screwing with natural selection. This is why inbreeding is bad, healthy individuals carrying but not expressing mutations are more likely to produce offspring who express those diseased traits.
      Long sections of DNA are coded to a specific task. Even "adding information" can reduce meaning, for instance frame shifts (like removing the last letter of each word and adding it to the next word) can add "information" but render a whole stretch of data meaningless and unreadable.
      When you add random digits to computer code, you are adding digits but you're reducing the meaning of the information. If you keep fiddling with your computer like that, it might seem okay at first, but that code means very specific things for very specific functions. You are going to cause problems. Even if it doesn't crash it will slow down. If you actually want it to work, you want to keep it as close to the original as possible.

      @tiptupjr.9073 "Young-age creationism" is essentially synonymous with "young-earth creationism." Some creationists prefer to use the term "young-age creationism" because it more accurately reflects our position that the entire universe, not just the Earth, is of a relatively young age.

    If you believe in intelligent design, you don’t know basic physiology
    1. Due to the way our spine is shaped, 80 percent of adults experience lower back pain in our life times. Also, it’s really easy to get paralyzed due to spinal damage
    2. Our foot dare flexible. That was useful when we lived in the trees, but now that we are bipeds it would make more sense for foot to be flat for better weight distribution
    3. We have a nerve that goes from our brain to our larynx. It would make sense if it went straight between the two, but instead it goes down, wraps around that part of your heart that’s curved, and goes back up to your larynx
    4. Our pelvises are too narrow. Humans have big brains, meaning they have big skulls which makes giving birth extra hard for humans. Edit: Our pelvises aren’t too narrow to give birth, they’re too narrow to give birth effectively
    5. Our testicles are exposed, even though that’s where sperm live and it’s extremely painful to get hit there Edit: I know exterior testicles would lead to sperm death, but there could’ve been a better way

      You could say that Windows 8 was not created by intelligent design, because its features were not what we wanted. Who makes a desktop OS based on a tablet interface?
      So you could say that it's unintelligent design, that we are smarter than those people, because they made an OS differently than our idea of what's best.
      And that would make us feel smart. But the truth is, neither me nor you have the knowledge and expertise to make anything similar. We know instinctively and inarguably that Windows 8 didn't pop into existence accidentally when someone's hard drive got corrupted and scrambled data. It was clearly designed by a team of people that cumulatively have more smarts and know-how than we do.
      I always figured testicles are exposed to give women a chance to defend themselves.

      Tim Webb The reason testicles are outside is because of evolution. If you had testicles on the inside, your sperm would for and you wouldn’t be able to reproduce, so your interior testicle genes wouldn’t get passed on. If you had exterior testicles, your genes would get passed on and you’d be able to reproduce, and pass on your exterior testicle genes. Same with the pelvis. Different people have different sized pelvises. If your pelvis was too narrow, you would die in childbirth, increasing the baby’s chance of death, meaning they wouldn’t pass on the narrow pelvis gene. If you had a wider pelvis, you would be able to have more children, meaning that trait would become more and more common. In case you haven’t noticed, not everyone is the same, everyone is different so certain traits that are better can get passed on, and it’s the same with the pelvis. Just like how some people are taller than others. Some pelvis’s are larger than others

      I am NOT for women preachers, BUT do NOT turn your back on Israel. It is JEWS who started the church...the FIRST CHRISTIANS...Jesus' eleven disciples. Remember Peter, and John, and Paul, etc. Blindness in part is on Israel, because that is part of God's plan. That is WHY God created the church which allows both Jew and Gentile to be part of the Church...the bride of Christ. God commands us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
      Psalm 122:6 "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee."
      In the second coming Jesus' foot will land on the Mt. of Olives, east of Jerusalem (when Jesus will enter Jerusalem through the GOLDEN GATE)...after the Jews are surrounded with no one to help them and the world is gathered against them. With no human help, their knees will bow (just like their knees did on Palm Sunday) and they will cry out according to
      Matthew 23:39 “For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.”
      and Jesus will rescue the Jews by destroying all the enemies of God with the breath of his mouth. Then, Jesus will set up His millennial kingdom.
      The church is the bride of Christ and Israel is the bride of the Father. The book of Hosea is the picture of Israel prostituting itself (as Gomer) and leaving her husband (as Hosea, the prophet who was told earlier to marry a prostitute), but Hosea goes back in later and PURCHASES Gomer (after she leaves Him and then her lover drops her.) Gomer is put on the auction block to be sold as a slave. Then Hosea steps back in and purchases his wife as an act of love. Do NOT hate Israel...it is a HORRIBLE WITNESS. Jesus said, if you hate, you've murdered.
      Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

      Michael: You and I both agree. The church is made up of both Jews and Greeks who understand that they are sinners because they have violated The Ten Commandments and are in need of the Savior, Jesus Christ. The church will go up in the RAPTURE for the wedding supper of the lamb as his bride. (That is why Christ is returning...to get his bride, the church. Wise grooms always show up BEFORE the wedding 😁 to get his bride or he won't be married.}. This marriage supper will last seven years while the Jews are on earth waiting to make things right w God.
      However, the unsaved Jews will remain on the Earth along with all the other unsaved for the tribulation period... Otherwise known as the 70th week of Daniel and/or the time of Jacob's trouble. The tribulation period Is for the saving of Israel and is when the temple will be rebuilt so the anti-christ can defile the rebuilt Temple. When this happens the Jews will flee. This will be the worst time on Earth ever. Jesus will eventually step in when the Jews repent. At this time Jesus will set up his millennial reign.
      When you say that there will be no more Jew or Greek...as Christians...that is correct. The tribulation period of seven years will be for the salvation of Israel who is blind now. the Bible says the Jews will grieve when they look on the one whom they have pierced. (All of us are responsible for Christ's death because Jesus is the only one who can pay the sin debt of the world.).
      What I am concerned about is the people who are trying to stir up anger against Israel. Jesus is not done with the Jews and anyone who instigates trouble against the Jews is guilty before God. We are to pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.
      We are to go into all the world and preach the gospel in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the uttermost parts of the earth.
      Thank you so much for responding. We are in agreement. God bless you.

    To me this man seems to have his brain in a mental straight jacket. He sees the evidence for evolution, admits that at least some of it is compelling, but cannot consider that evolution might be true because the consequences of doing so would be too catastrophic for him to consider. For a man like this, to admit that evolution is true in and of itself would not be hard (he might even long for the intellectual honesty), but to do so would also cause him to lose his faith which is too much.
