Good, but a couple nitpicks. 1) At 3.14 on screen (and read I think a few seconds earlier) it says that all life on Earth has genetic sequences we share. That is ambiguous, and could be taken to refer to the entire genetic sequences of genomes. Better would have been adding "some" to qualify it ("All life on Earth has some genetic sequences we share") 2) And around the same point, there is a grammatical error. It asks, "What could us humans have ...". That should be "we". "What could we humans have ..."

*HUMAN GROUP EVOLVING TO BE AQUATIC HUNTERS* The Bajau people, or Sea Nomads, have engaged in breath-hold diving for thousands of years. Evolution has increased Bajau spleen size, providing an oxygen reservoir for diving, just like in other sea-going mammals like otters, seals and whales. They can stay underwater for 15 minutes, which is even longer than a dolphin can do it for! Most of us humans can only handle less than two. Oh yeah, and the Bajau people are also capable of seeing clearly underwater. They are able to make their pupils smaller and change their lens shape. Seals and dolphins have a similar adaptation. This has been proven in underwater visual testing, the Bajau see twice as well as other humans.
Given in the context of the fundamental ideas of reproductive biology that are not only proven in the lab, but are logically common sense, evolution is the best explanation for the phenomena we see in nature.
there is no reason to think that "creator" would create different life forms with similar structure. dont you think he might've created something so different that its entirely obvious that it couldnt have evolved. like a life form based on bismuth instead of carbon, or feathered flying horse would disprove evolution as well... sadly for you, evolution is only logical explanation for biodiversity we observe. god doesnt explain anything. it only raises questions on vestigial structures while evolution literally explains everything we observe

The verse that says Adam & Eve came from the sky isn’t meant to be a scientific verse anyway, but just some info for the already believing. And God made us very similar to apes cuz life is a test; if we were completely alien then there’s no freewill, is there? Everyone will have to believe in a God at that point. But the fact that there are theists and atheists shows the freewill & diversity God has put on us.. and it’s arguably more merciful that way if you ask me.

Because they are mammals and were land dwelling once, they have all these strange features that sharks don't have because they were fish from the start. So the similarities are because clearly the streamlined body shape is ideal for living in the water (and look at other creatures like seals and even penguins). Evolution selected for that.

@@adrianjos04 Dolphins are members of the order Cetacea, which also includes whales and porpoises. The most recent common ancestor of cetaceans is thought to have been a land-dwelling mammal that lived around 50 million years ago. The fossil record and genetic evidence suggest that cetaceans evolved from a group of hoofed mammals called artiodactyls, which includes modern-day hippos, deer, and cows. Specifically, the closest living relatives of cetaceans are the hippos. The transition from land to water likely occurred gradually over millions of years. Early cetaceans likely inhabited coastal areas and gradually adapted to an aquatic lifestyle.

I am happy to give you 50 millon years, though most textbooks say 11 million to it's water dwelling "ancestor" 3. Why do you make up false assertions? It shows you are ignorant to the science or dishonest.
Fossils of each and every variety of organism all living at the same time way back when life started would be more evidence of a common creator. As it stands, the fact that all varieties of organisms reproduced, the fact that evidence of certain varieties are only found after certain points in the fossil record, the fact that we out right bred all breeds of dog from wolf ancestors, the fact that the human embryo has useless gill slits for the first few weeks, and the fact that you yourself are not just a clone of your parents, are all just a few examples of all the facts that together point towards common ancestry.
I'm lost. How is this evidence of a common designer? And, more importantly, how would you falsify a common designer. What I mean is that if something indicates a common designer then by definition another scenario would disprove one. I assume your common designer would be intelligent...right? Well, we actually have many anatomic flaws better explained by our bodies being reworked and adapted to differing conditions throughout their evolutionary history.....we have inefficient feet, bad spines, cranial nerves that are extremely inefficient, bad knees, etc. Hardly "intelligent design."
@@fraser_mr2009 No because we understand it's natural mechanism. Then again, evidence for intelligent design cannot be falsified therefore ID isn't science.
It's unreal how stupid This is. There is a massive jump from the Idea that forms have like patterns to the idea that forms all come from each other and were conflated at one point. That is just the attempt to create a new atheistic religion with nothing to back it up.
@@Jalip07If that were true you would easily point out the error. What you did with the avoidant, irrelevant, emotional, one liner is very common when people have pride wrapped around an Idea that they don't have the tools or mental clarity to discuss.
@@PhilipK635 Sure but "Christianity" as people refer to it is not a unified thing. There are many sects of Christians who believe many wrong things. I never said all people who believe in Evolution are Atheists. I'm saying the people who push it and invest in the development of the theory were/are creating an alternate narrative explicitly or implicitly to subvert and assume traditional narrative. Humans live in Narrative's and this was an alternate origin story for Atheists. That doesn't mean people who are Christian can't fall under it and go along with something in a cognitively dissonate way. I think those people are just going along with the times and don't understand the issue though.
@@thecrow4597 What is there to discuss, when you have gone as far as making up your own definition such as calling atheism a religion. At that point, its no longer about what is true, but what you want to be true.
@@Jalip07 Once again all you did was say rhetoric and made zero points. Atheism is a religion. It's a system of belief that has all the components of the main religious beliefs. Unique epistemology, origin narrative, authority structure etc.
I think for something to be accepted as scientific knowledge it must be clearly observed. Theory necessarily means that the subject hasn't been observed but it did leave behind a historical remnant, or evidence as we call it. Evidence allows for a forensic analysis, but like with lawyers and juries, all the best evidence can do is maybe render a decision among a jury where the conclusion of guilt is beyond the shadow of a doubt. (Good lawyers are the smartest people.) Courts do not always get it right. Innocent people have been sent to jail in spite of convincing evidence. Evidence can't always be trusted which is why lawyers, and not scientists, run the world. If I am going to believe that slime on a rock turned into Beethoven, I will have to see a lot more than what the evolutionary researchers have put forward.
Scientific theories are the pinnacle of science. There is nothing forca Scientific theory to graduate to. They are based upon an abundance of evidence. Mammals didn't always exist. So where did they come from?
theres clear common ancestry between a rock and your brain, both looks about the same have similar density and produce exact the same effect on the environment.
Nicely executed video ... well done on the presentation. The content? Well, honestly you're serving leftovers from old science. Fossils: Paleontologists are those who study fossils, and they no longer cite fossils as evidence for evolution, because fossils consistently show abrupt appearance of species, stasis for long periods of time, then extinction (or the species is still around today, virtually unchanged). As acknowledged by the late Stephen J. Gould, the fossil record is a problem for the slow-change-over-time story required by evolution, and is the reason why he postulated punctuated equilibrium as a way of explaining the fossil evidence. Embryos: You might want to reconsider your terminology in this section: "They look almost the same ..." Seriously? Even in your illustrations (intentionally "enhanced" to emphasize the similarities-a far cry from what actual photos show, and why textbooks generally keep using distorted drawings), I'd say they look as much alike as a Volkswagen looks like a Hummer. Yes, they are all recognizable as embryo drawings, but "almost the same"? Better head to the optometrist. [By the way, I used to buy the biological evolution narrative also, then I dug in and studied the underlying science. It was only then that I came to realize it was untenable, both biologically and probabilistically.]
@@dm964 I'm not sure what is invalid. The fossils we have are still consistent with evolutionary change according to geologic time/ location of those fossils in the record. So, they still support evolution. For example, there are no rabbit fossils in the Cambrian. The fossils we do have are where we would expect to find them with regards to time period. We don't need an entire lineage or line of ancestry. By definition, fossilization is rare so that wouldn't happen anyway (by the way, its is actually rather complete for the transition of whales from land mammals). Then there's the distribution of life on the planet. For example, Australian speciation and the relatedness of Australian species as being closer to each other, and not found elsewhere on the planet. As in, having disembarked form a boat landing on top of Mt. Ararat and then hiked to Australia...LOL. And, DNA relatedness (pretty solid evidence) bears out the phylogenic family tree of life. We use our relatedness to bacteria by making it read our DNA to produce insulin. Our immune systems also distinguish between proteins from closer related species to that of more distantly related ones. So, there are multiple lines of evidence (including fossil) that, when taken together, support evolutionary theory. And, as you bring up embryos, we can trace the evolution of the blowhole in dolphins, for one, through embryonic development. As well as the appearance and loss of features, like the human tail. Embryology is still a valid support for evolutionary theory. Simplification of any topic for appropriate grade levels doesn't mean it's misleading.
"A God who rewards and punishes is inconceivable for the simple reason that a man's actions are determined by necessity, external and internal; so that in God's eyes he cannot be responsible for the motions it goes through. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear and punishment and hope of reward after death. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension; such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls. I cannot conceive of a god who rewards and punishes his creatures." -Albert Einstein
@@PhilipK635 Actually, it shows variation, or microevolution. Goo to zoo requires macroevolution. Where people like you make a horrendous mistake is in extending the former to include the latter. I explain it to confused people like you this way. A balloon goes higher the bigger it is, but it isn't possible to make a balloon so big it gets to the moon. This is because there is no atmosphere between Earth and the moon, so the physics of hot air ballooning breaks down at the outer edges of Earth's atmosphere.

@@PhilipK-xk4by re read what i wrote. I asked for differences in chimps OR closest relative, since we do not have that imaginary common ancestor.
2. Paki breathed air, allegedly. I am happy to give you 50 millon years, though most textbooks say 11 million to it's water dwelling "ancestor"
3. Why do you make up false assertions? It shows you are ignorant to the science or dishonest.
@@rocketsurgeon1746 Oh look, it's the guy who lies by claiming to be a scientist. Still here spewing out anti-science crud.
This is evidence of a common designer, not evidence of a common ancestor.
Fossils of each and every variety of organism all living at the same time way back when life started would be more evidence of a common creator. As it stands, the fact that all varieties of organisms reproduced, the fact that evidence of certain varieties are only found after certain points in the fossil record, the fact that we out right bred all breeds of dog from wolf ancestors, the fact that the human embryo has useless gill slits for the first few weeks, and the fact that you yourself are not just a clone of your parents, are all just a few examples of all the facts that together point towards common ancestry.
I'm lost. How is this evidence of a common designer? And, more importantly, how would you falsify a common designer. What I mean is that if something indicates a common designer then by definition another scenario would disprove one. I assume your common designer would be intelligent...right? Well, we actually have many anatomic flaws better explained by our bodies being reworked and adapted to differing conditions throughout their evolutionary history.....we have inefficient feet, bad spines, cranial nerves that are extremely inefficient, bad knees, etc. Hardly "intelligent design."
@@junodonatus4906 Is cancer in children evidence for intelligent design?
@@fraser_mr2009
No because we understand it's natural mechanism. Then again, evidence for intelligent design cannot be falsified therefore ID isn't science.
It's unreal how stupid This is. There is a massive jump from the Idea that forms have like patterns to the idea that forms all come from each other and were conflated at one point. That is just the attempt to create a new atheistic religion with nothing to back it up.
Your comment doesnt make as much sense as you think it does.
@@Jalip07If that were true you would easily point out the error. What you did with the avoidant, irrelevant, emotional, one liner is very common when people have pride wrapped around an Idea that they don't have the tools or mental clarity to discuss.
@@PhilipK635 Sure but "Christianity" as people refer to it is not a unified thing. There are many sects of Christians who believe many wrong things. I never said all people who believe in Evolution are Atheists. I'm saying the people who push it and invest in the development of the theory were/are creating an alternate narrative explicitly or implicitly to subvert and assume traditional narrative. Humans live in Narrative's and this was an alternate origin story for Atheists. That doesn't mean people who are Christian can't fall under it and go along with something in a cognitively dissonate way. I think those people are just going along with the times and don't understand the issue though.
@@thecrow4597 What is there to discuss, when you have gone as far as making up your own definition such as calling atheism a religion. At that point, its no longer about what is true, but what you want to be true.
@@Jalip07 Once again all you did was say rhetoric and made zero points. Atheism is a religion. It's a system of belief that has all the components of the main religious beliefs. Unique epistemology, origin narrative, authority structure etc.
I think for something to be accepted as scientific knowledge it must be clearly observed.
Theory necessarily means that the subject hasn't been observed but it did leave behind a historical remnant, or evidence as we call it. Evidence allows for a forensic analysis, but like with lawyers and juries, all the best evidence can do is maybe render a decision among a jury where the conclusion of guilt is beyond the shadow of a doubt. (Good lawyers are the smartest people.)
Courts do not always get it right. Innocent people have been sent to jail in spite of convincing evidence.
Evidence can't always be trusted which is why lawyers, and not scientists, run the world.
If I am going to believe that slime on a rock turned into Beethoven, I will have to see a lot more than what the evolutionary researchers have put forward.
This is pig-ignorant drivel.
Have you tried reading books?
Scientific theories are the pinnacle of science. There is nothing forca Scientific theory to graduate to. They are based upon an abundance of evidence.
Mammals didn't always exist. So where did they come from?
So go educate yourself.
theres clear common ancestry between a rock and your brain, both looks about the same have similar density and produce exact the same effect on the environment.
you may not understand what a theory is and its plausibility. @@PhilipK635
i give you my blessing to fk off, if u have no argument. @@PhilipK635
Nicely executed video ... well done on the presentation. The content? Well, honestly you're serving leftovers from old science.
Fossils: Paleontologists are those who study fossils, and they no longer cite fossils as evidence for evolution, because fossils consistently show abrupt appearance of species, stasis for long periods of time, then extinction (or the species is still around today, virtually unchanged). As acknowledged by the late Stephen J. Gould, the fossil record is a problem for the slow-change-over-time story required by evolution, and is the reason why he postulated punctuated equilibrium as a way of explaining the fossil evidence.
Embryos: You might want to reconsider your terminology in this section: "They look almost the same ..." Seriously? Even in your illustrations (intentionally "enhanced" to emphasize the similarities-a far cry from what actual photos show, and why textbooks generally keep using distorted drawings), I'd say they look as much alike as a Volkswagen looks like a Hummer. Yes, they are all recognizable as embryo drawings, but "almost the same"? Better head to the optometrist. [By the way, I used to buy the biological evolution narrative also, then I dug in and studied the underlying science. It was only then that I came to realize it was untenable, both biologically and probabilistically.]
It’s not that deep. This video is made for an 8th-grade science curriculum.
@@ByRachelTaylor I understand that, but repeating information that is known to be invalid is not appropriate for any age group.
dude chill
@@dm964
I'm not sure what is invalid. The fossils we have are still consistent with evolutionary change according to geologic time/ location of those fossils in the record. So, they still support evolution. For example, there are no rabbit fossils in the Cambrian. The fossils we do have are where we would expect to find them with regards to time period. We don't need an entire lineage or line of ancestry. By definition, fossilization is rare so that wouldn't happen anyway (by the way, its is actually rather complete for the transition of whales from land mammals). Then there's the distribution of life on the planet. For example, Australian speciation and the relatedness of Australian species as being closer to each other, and not found elsewhere on the planet. As in, having disembarked form a boat landing on top of Mt. Ararat and then hiked to Australia...LOL. And, DNA relatedness (pretty solid evidence) bears out the phylogenic family tree of life. We use our relatedness to bacteria by making it read our DNA to produce insulin. Our immune systems also distinguish between proteins from closer related species to that of more distantly related ones. So, there are multiple lines of evidence (including fossil) that, when taken together, support evolutionary theory. And, as you bring up embryos, we can trace the evolution of the blowhole in dolphins, for one, through embryonic development. As well as the appearance and loss of features, like the human tail. Embryology is still a valid support for evolutionary theory. Simplification of any topic for appropriate grade levels doesn't mean it's misleading.
Same. You start to see through the muddy water when you study the philosophy of science.
All this information is evidence of one God
No it isn't.
@@mcmanustony If they think evolution is evidence of god, everyone wins.
"A God who rewards and punishes is inconceivable for the simple reason that a man's actions are determined by necessity, external and internal; so that in God's eyes he cannot be responsible for the motions it goes through. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear and punishment and hope of reward after death. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension; such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls. I cannot conceive of a god who rewards and punishes his creatures."
-Albert Einstein
And yet no animal can breed with other different animals, hmmmm so much for similarities.
@@PhilipK635
Actually, it shows variation, or microevolution. Goo to zoo requires macroevolution. Where people like you make a horrendous mistake is in extending the former to include the latter.
I explain it to confused people like you this way.
A balloon goes higher the bigger it is, but it isn't possible to make a balloon so big it gets to the moon. This is because there is no atmosphere between Earth and the moon, so the physics of hot air ballooning breaks down at the outer edges of Earth's atmosphere.
@@PhilipK635 Nevermind that you have different species making fertile offspring in nature all the time.
@@PhilipK635 True, but something like Wolves and Coyotes can make both fertile males and females.
Hahahaha when the infant make science hahaha we are all made of carbon atoms ,are my Mother and father the stars in universe 😂 your science is based on emotions ,dont use my science (dna and so on) to proof evulution
This also makes no sense. Perhaps you could elaborate?
