    It's true that he was religious in his youth, and even planned to become a minister at one point. He was definitely worried that his findings would cause conflict as most people were very religious in those days. But most people manage to keep their faith while accepting evolution as the work of god.

      When ? In the middle ages ? Durign the cursads ? Durign the witch hunt ? Durign the regime of the nazis ? Not really... The church CLAIMS to be a source of morals... while the only moral thing they ever did was LOOSING their power.

    • @YeastisBeast
      @YeastisBeast 10 років тому +1

      Eagle93Writer Well, there are exeptions but this is when people have interpreted christian philosophies incorrectly. And although what they were doing was undoubtably wrong, they belived it was , at least partially, right(with the possible execption of the Nazis). Many good deeds are inspired by Christianity and other religons but not many bad ones are.It's just the bad ones get noticed.

    • @Eagle93Writer
      @Eagle93Writer 10 років тому

    • @YeastisBeast
      @YeastisBeast 10 років тому +1

      Eagle93Writer Religon can be used as an excuse to cover up wanting power. So what? That doesn't make religon a bad thing. It helps people;If a Christian was on their deathbed, and then someone like you came and told them christianinty was a myth, and they belived you, they would be a lot more miserable, because they would know that when they died they would cease to exist. Religon is a comfort to people, and I bet if you took it away overnight, suicide rates would increase drematically. Religon, although, in my opinion, it's not true, gives people hope.

    Across all sciences there are two fundamental assumptions: That the universe is real, and that we can learn about it. Those two assumptions has brought us a lot. Our knowledge about evolution for example has brought us many advances in medicine, and other forms of public health. Our knowledge about gravity has given us travel around the earth as well as out of Earth's own gravity well, and it has enabled worldwide communication.
    Those two assumptions are no stretch, and the results works.

    I am not a biologist, but I'll still try:
    Earlier biologists believed that gradual mutations and selection would mean that animals change slowly over time, where we today know that most species are in equilibrium with their environment and does not change much if at all, where if the environment change rapidly we see rapid changes. So zebras in Africa would not need to change once adapted, and horses in Europe wouldn't need either. In adapting to the different environments they drift apart (...)

  • @TheBanile
    @TheBanile 12 років тому

    Ah, don't pay attention to people who say there are no missing links found etc. "Missing link" is a very out-dated term from the quaint old days when we thought that there would be one ancestor who was exactly half-ape and half-man or something like that. It's suprising how people don't seem to understand ti very well, not that I blame them, science is rather hard.
    I'm a bit of a biology nerd :P I do recommend reading up on it though, fascinating stuff.

    Yes, SCIENTIFIC theory, which is different from philosophical theory. Theories in the arts and philosophy may address ideas and empirical phenomena which are not easily measurable, in modern science the term "theory", or "scientific theory" is generally understood to refer to a proposed explanation of empirical phenomena, made in a way consistent with scientific method.

    I know! It's largely flawless, and although it seems easy at first, it could be complex in some cases, and most religious people accept it too! My English teacher is really religious and she said that she believes in Evolution too, I think it's silly that people can't believe in it, and like my English teacher said: 'Maybe God started the evolution process' which means that religious people don't have a reason not to believe any more!

    Evolution is 'just a theory' as much as the Theory of Gravity or Germ Theory; in fact, it's probably stronger than the theory of gravity as we don't know half of what we'd like about gravity atm. It's certainly a very strong theory, proven beyond reasonable doubt at this point, and only getting strong with genetics in th elast few decades, and I've never seen any real holes in it (though if you have any I'd be happy to look, I'm a biology nut :D)

    The first part of this is inaccurate. He didn't join the Beagle to study evolution and he only came up with the theory during the voyage not before. Obviously the bit about the monkey is a joke and it sort of leads on from there so it can have poetic license and it's still a good song.

  • @EsbenDRK
    @EsbenDRK 12 років тому

    The only people I've seen saying we descended from chimps are actually Creationists and the like. We didn't. We have a close common ancestor with chimps.
    If you by slight changes mean that we can show how animals become very different over millions of years (Such as whales and land-mammals), then you're right.
    Last, I'm not viewing this as an argument, but a teaching session. Creationists aren't in need of further debates, but an education.

    You do know that horses and zebras are different species, right? And that they can interbreed? The problem for these two aren't that they're too different to interbreed, but to interbreed viably (In this case, the offspring is sterile). And as with everything poorly fitted to survive, it will die if threatened.
    In other cases the two groups are, because of rapid changes or because of distance, changed so much that they can't interbreed at all when they meet again.

    I already know about ring species, and it doesn't really change what I said, only one kind of evolution can explain common descent. Regardless of whether they are seperated by a volcano or whatever, only if the mutations which occur are incompatible to specific other mutations will they be able to seperate.
    The only way they "know" that the bones which they use to represent the evolution of man are related is because they look similiar, and that's like looking at the bat as a bird.
