Science Uprising
Well-known scientists have been preaching a materialistic worldview rather than presenting the public with all the evidence. We are here to change that. The objective scientific evidence does not prove our universe is blind and purposeless. It does not show we are simply meat machines. It does not prove that evolutionary mechanisms can completely account for the diversity of life on earth. This is what THEY want you to think. Think for yourself and make an informed decision.
Are you ready? The uprising has begun.

Dr Stephen Meyer and Dr James Tour are two intelligent minds to be reckoned with! Appreciate the hard work that all the scientists at the Discovery Institute do to prove intelligence is behind the origin of life. May God continue to bless the works of your hands and minds
And that hard work is not Govt funded and mostly done for nothing.
Love James Tour....great scientist and passionate man.
Dr Tour is a total bad ass!
James Tour is a gift from God to mankind.
Thank God for James Tour - a man who knows & speaks the Truth !!!
Awesome!! It is mind bending how so many will not look carefully at the incredible evidence for design.
It's mind bending how so many people will look at the evidence in the natural world, ONLY through their presupposed Materialist / Naturalist lens. And thereby be BLIND to the fact that it's screaming out: DESIGN, PURPOSE, INTELLIGENCE.
Awesome job. Bang on. These ripples will cross the planet and wake up some of the sleeping crowd. Cheers.
Oh my gosh!!!!!! This is the best video I have ever ever ever found on this matter. This summarizes all the debates, conferences, etc in 7:14 minutes. I LOVE THIS!!!! I can share this with anyone and they will be able to understand this!!!! You guys are awesome!!! Keep up the great work
Well what do you know.....people speaking the truth. How refreshing. Intelligent design is a slam dunk.
@Peter A. The Idea of monotheism solves your paradox: The only G-d is eternal, has no beginning and/or end, does not exist in time, but rather time is part of It. Thus it doesn't require "a creator". The Source of everything doesn't need its own "source". But your arguments are very applicable in respect to the hypothesis of live on Earth being created by the extraterrestrials. The latter is indeed an empty shell that explains nothing, but just further shifts the questions.
Jim tour is a gift for this world for truth.

One of my favorite mathematicians, PhD John Lennox who taught at Oxford University, puts it in many intriguing illustrations how the odds of organic life forming by mere chance is not just an absurdity, but a statistical improbability. Take Carbon for example. Organic life is Carbon based. Heavy Elements are forged in the nuclear heart of the large stars- the ones capable of producing super novas. As they use their hydrogen up in fission processes, they are forced to create heavier and heavier elements in order to maintain nuclear fission and core stability against the immense weight of the immense star's own solar material bearing down on it. Once the core has transitioned up the periodic table from hydrogen to iron, fission is no longer possible. The outward forces creating balance against gravitational effects cease, and a very rapid collapse occurs, compressing the core of iron the size of 100s of 1000000s of our planet down to the size of approx one of our planet- in seconds. This is the beginning of a super nova. The core explodes out, the star sheds its material and in this process, the heaviest elements are then formed, and dispersed throughout the cosmos, Carbon being one of them. Now. What are the odds, of having just the right amount of stars comprising just the right size, all going nova around just the right time (and their life cycles are measured in BILLIONS of years), in just the right amount of consolidated space, so that enough Carbon is generated and accumulated to make organic carbon based life even possible? (And keep in mind, we are only talking about Carbon atoms here- this premise is excluding all of the other finite and precisely tuned variables needed for life to exist). Professor Lennox puts it like this (paraphrasing): Suppose you took a stack of quarters, and made it reach from Earth to the Moon. Then suppose, you took a country the size of Russia, and covered every square inch of its entire surface with stacks of quarters this size. Then suppose I told you that somewhere, in just one of those stacks, there was one quarter painted red, and suppose I asked you to go find it. Your odds of finding that one red coin, are the same as the chances that the generation of the Carbon atoms in our bodies and every other living thing on this planet was left completely to randomness.
Think about that. How profound that is. Remember, this doesn't include the odds of an insignificant and mid-grade, relatively stable star, and a planet at just the right distance from it, with a strong enough magnetic field to repel the onslaught of cosmic radiation, and having water and a breathable atmosphere for aerobic respiration, and other gas giant planets at just the right place to absorb the bulk of incoming space debris like comets and meteors and such, and other factors the gravity constant which makes star formation even possible, everything like that. When you factor in all of these things it's more like those stacks of quarters cover the whole Earth, not just Russia, and you still have got to find just one red coin. The amount of code stored in your DNA, the instruction manual that makes you, you, if arranged in one long word would be 3 billion characters long. The information would fill hundreds of volumes of 1000 page encyclopedias, and the print would be so small you would need a magnifying glass to read it. There are more atoms in one molecule of your DNA then there are stars in the Milky Way Galaxy, and there are 100s of billions of stars in it. Life is not random and spontaneous in origin. To believe that, would require a leap of faith so great and irrational. We are designed. Created. Brilliantly. By a transcendent causal agent, whom must exist outside of space, matter, energy, and time. The universe- space, matter, energy, and time, is not infinite. It has a provable beginning, and origin. The accelerating expansion of the universe can be mathematically and scientifically traced back to a single point, a singularity event. That goes completely against the laws of entropy and thermodynamics- meaning higher organization and order resulted from a lower state. This is not spontaneous. A non-spontaneous reaction (meaning unnatural) requires an outside energy to enable it to proceed. Only spontaneous reactions- ones which use energy and result in de-organization, from higher to lower orders, occur in nature. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN ON ITS OWN. If you have a beginning, you must have a beginner. And one which exists separate and apart from the creation itself.
-The sun causes fusion, not fission.
-Not all stars "live" for billions of years. Some only live for millions.
-Your whole first paragraph was just about how carbon is formed. Nothing supernatural here. Just an argument from incredulity because you don't understand how this could give us the proper amount of carbon for life to form.
-The second paragraph is mostly unfounded claims like "we are designed" and the universe has a "provable beginning". Both of which you didn't "prove".
I remain unconvinced....
What are you talking about, stars billions of years old, and exploding into carbon atoms? Don't you know that God made everything from nothing? From scratch? And he created life so well that only 99.99% of species have gone extinct, so human beings could be here! Who could possibly believe that the planet just sat here, waiting for a star to explode, for God to wake up one day to assemble DNA and originate life and eventually make monkeys, dolphins, and humans. You probably believe that an elephant is somehow related to a banana, just because they have "carbon" bahahaha idiot
@@cygnustsp ....still unconvinced.
Wow thank you for that incredible comment obviously you have done some serious research & contemplation I for one greatly appreciate such insight to the heart of the matter creation versus evolution. We are at a crossroads of no return it is up to people like us to point the way forward I am sharing a websight on the internet biologicalcompass.com as a condensed way to a complex & often misunderstood subject.
@@cygnustsp They are related, because they both are eukaryotes. That's it.
(Bananas are the way they are, because humans cultivated bananas through 'sexual selection', which is a evolutionary process, you know this, right? Humans have been cultivating bananas for over 7000 thousand years. (which should be a problem for young earth creationists)
And yet there are millions and millions of thinking people who are blind to the facts. Why we don't share these videos with the youth is beyond me.
Debunking The Business Of Science. I Like This Guy!
Awesome episode! It's always a delight to hear James Tour call out those fraudulent origin-of-life claims.
EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stephen Hawking... It is an amazing that such an extremely intelligent person can say something like "Life has spontaneously generated itself", to paraphrase.
It takes a whole lot of faith, to believe that is possible.
It seems to be be a lot of desperation going on___ from the atheists 😮
Takes even more faith to think an invisible person did it.
@@BobSacamano666 No, that’s actually not true. We know that all of the energy, matter, and space we see has a definite beginning, it logically follows that some entity that transcends the existence of all energy, matter, and space is responsible for causing the event that caused the origin of all the space, matter, and time. So we’ve confirmed a cause that transcends space, time, and matter.
When we also observe fine tuning of the cosmological constants, and the digital nature of DNA, it’s quite reasonable to believe that the already confirmed cause that transcends space, time, and matter is an intelligent designer of our universe.
Many scientists unknowingly posit a version of the same idea when they posit simulation theory.
@@BobSacamano666 Not necessarily! Sometimes I will divulge why I am very confident that this "invisible person" as you say ___is one hundred percent real. Overall, I have not shared what I'm going to share with you, with very many people, and especially not in this forum. But I've had a few supernatural experiences in my life. And some of those phenomena were while with others and some were witnessed only by myself. Regardless, we know what we saw and heard! One incident was an actual exorcism. Of course, you are free to doubt,ridicule, disparage, call me a liar or whatever you choose. It doesn't change reality. And believe me, you are lucky to have the freedom to believe in only the natural. But others and myself,we don't have that luxury!!! I don't know why we saw and heard what we did. But I do *know that I could never dismiss those things in favor of evolution or any theory that contradicts what I saw and heard. And honestly, I don't think you could either. Could you? I would love to see an honest response. One more thing: Before you assume that I believe just because I "want" to believe ___ let me say this. I absolutely do not want to believe that there exists incorporeal beings that can possess one's body and mind. I have no trouble believing that God exists, however. But I will freely admit... I'm at a loss as to explaining.
This is well done. Thank you. I'm sharing it.
Keep going, we are following. Thanks
Subscribed for this series. Fantastic. Make people think.
Tour to the Reason!
Looking at the complexity of DNA and the design of the cells, it's actually reasonable to think that there must have been an *author* behind this astonishing information.
And yet, Materialists continue to insist that it MUST have come about by random chance & purely naturalistic purposes.
@@LoveYourNeighbour. because they are not looking for the most likely answers.
They are looking for the most likely naturalistic answers.
I can't seem to find a reason so many people think higher complexity makes it more likely something was designed rather than naturally produced. Is there any basis to your assumption?
@@LoveYourNeighbour. Pride comes before a fall.
Why did he write so much junk DNA
Great job!
This was phenomenal
Well, we need proof of the Intelligent designer, and we also need an explanation of who made the Intelligent Designer, what is his/her origin? If you say that Life can only be the result of an intelligent Designer, then the only origin of the Intelligent Designer is another Intelligent Designer and so on and so forth but that creates an issue now does it not?
Awesome video
I love your series. The only thing I'd suggest is to finally start use History the same way materialists (atheists) do. I grew up in a Soviet Socialist state, we were prohibited to even imagine "science" out of Darwinism. We were taught at school that Dialectic Materialism (the concept of combining Marxism with Darwinism) is what postulates the nature of everything. I had to study Darwinism at school while it was prohibited to enter a church, and possessing a Bible would have lead to jail for anti-communist propaganda. Materialism and Atheism were default understandings, religious views were prohibited by the constitution. I've seen and experienced all that shit when Atheism is the main ideology.
Yet, I've never managed to understand how is that possible a theory concerning Biology (what the Evolutionary theory is), to be entirely based on History. "History" is a very manipulated field, you can select one evidence or another in purpose to prove your thesis, and to exclude all other evidences. It's a tricky scientific field. Hoever, the Evolutionary theory relies entirely on Historical evidence. No biologist actually cares how a cell would have looked like 300 million years ago, they work on the current material they have. All those Historical references aiming to prove how the whale was once a bull, are just fairytales, because nothing of that can be actually repeated in a lab so to be proven scientifically correct.
Why don't you try indeed to find Historians supporting the intelligent design thesis, and speak with them on how and why the Evolutionary theory turned into Dialectical Materialism? If Dawkins can use History for building his multi-million business selling "Atheism and Materialism", isn't it time actual historians to speak about what Materialism and Atheism caused to many societies in 20-th century?
Materialism and Atheism continues to currently destroy modern society, today!
Whether you live in Venezuela or the U.S., the deadly duo of materialism and Atheism mark both the beginning and the end of a free and prosperous society!
Dekuju for your honest reply I share your experience completely recently I have posted a website biologicalcompass.com if you have time please check.
Yo these videos are epic! Thanks for standing up for the truth and shining a light on modern science!
You are making some great Videos.
The problem always will be; Who creat the creator? Even more complex that a cell and all the universe combined. So the winning choice for now is; we don’t know wtf is going on.
That's true, we don't know exactly what's going on...but you have to ask yourself, where is the evidence pointing to?
So, what can we know or learn about the intelligent designer?
Thanks from Turkey.
James Tour is a Beast.
Love him.
Calling out lies.
One of my true heroes of our day!
THAT WAS AWESOME!!!
This also destroys the notion of soft tissues lasting over millions of years! Time is the enemy and destroys anything that doesn't WORK to keep a certain order.
Over & over again, we keep on hearing the same old fairy tale - "if you wait long enough, given enough time, LIFE WILL FORM ON ITS OWN." Science is increasingly showing, however, that this view is completely unrealistic!
@@LoveYourNeighbour. Science is showing already existing phenomenon BUD
@@LoveYourNeighbour. That is the truth.
@@Wisdomdigger101 Please enlighten us on this existing phenomenon and how it addresses the topic at hand. Thanks.
@@Wisdomdigger101 Example please or your statement is empty.
This needs to go viral
These videos are some of the best I have ever seen about this...thank you so much for your hard work.
This video changes my mind😱😱😱
So what the origin of that "super intelligence"?
So who created the intelligent, creative mind?
Stop asking intelligent questions. Just stick to the prescribed narrative
@@doxxreport ahhhh. So intelligence just....is. It's...something...but science has no explanation as to what it is. That clarifies things a great deal.
Let's just lay our cards on the table. Science tells us that everything we know of was created at some point by some other thing, or things. But this brings us back to the infinite loop problem. Who created the original creator?
Good
Love this!
Great video guys!!
All molecules come together to form the first cell.... Question: Where the molecules come from?
Science rules!!!!
How?
This channel is like a science VERSION OF WATCH DOGS....😂😂😂😂😂😂 ...I LOVE IT
Even if scientists could create life, that would only support the truth that life needs a creator, not millions of years of random chemical and electrical mishaps.
Lol, so if scientists can't produce it, god did it. If scientists can produce it, god did it. How insane, shortsighted, and ridiculous. Face it, it's a giant accident why you and I are here, and to dust we shall return never to be heard from again. The sooner you accept that fate the better off your life will be, instead of chasing fairy tales with shitty logic. "Nobody knows for sure, so God did it" is the laziest, most useless explanation ever.
@@cygnustsp
Us: Accident.
Love: Accident.
Existence: Accident.
Accident.
Accident.
Accident.
No one knows for sure, so evolution did it.
You say that we're an accident.
You say that as though you know what the truth is. That's a contradiction.
Thats just depressing or to put it another way.
You're saying everything is meaningless.
So everything exploded from nothing for no reason. Things evolve towards an unseen goal that doesn't exist.
Abiogenesis or life from non life totally happened. Chemical evolution is possible.
We're just another ape destined to die.
Logic doesn't mean anything in such a view you hold. Why does gravity work in such a uniform way. How did Jupiter not throw out Earth when it formed or the moon? Where are the Aliens so often touted must exist?
You're the one believing a depressing fairytale without logic not believers. They have hope. They believe in a creator who is consistent and intelligent. Purpose,
Not accidents. Animal proteins in flowers , living fossils, evidence that Homo Erectus, Hobbitis and Neanderthalus are human. Dragon (Dinosaur) encounters, countless semi fossilized soft and hard fossils, Human ingenuity and creativity, Beauty, DNA quantum entanglement.
How much could convinve you life is no accident? That depends on you.
You often no explanation just " we're an accident, believe me or you're delusional"
And that's just sad.
@@cygnustsp if scientists produce it, that proves an outside intelligence played a part in it's creation. Game over for your comment. Either way you lose.
@@Human-hs8sp the goal is to continue living. Life is constantly trying to go on. Almost as if, it does not want to end. It is constantly improving itself with one goal, which is to continue. There seems to be no limit. Maybe life on earth will end and billions of years later, some event will happen to kick start life again. It may be a repetitive cycle. It may be the first time life has emerged. It may be the only. It may be the last, but life is desperaty trying to continue.
Information required. Where'd the information come from?
Amen guys x
For this people's heart is waxed gross, And their ears are dull of hearing, And their eyes they have closed;
Lest at any time they should see with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And should understand with their heart,
And should be converted, and I should heal them.
Matthew 13:15
People's hearts & minds must INDEED be closed, if they still insist that life MUST have originated on its own.
From unbeliever to believer. Reason- Extraordinary evidence pointing to a supreme intelligence that is outside of our own, personal comprehension.
What extraordinary evidence?
@@wymanspace4173 The information in the Universe is evidence enough.
A random chance Universe is not only impossible but it would produce no information at all.
@@wymanspace4173 look around you
Wyman Space-time theorems, Cambrian Explosion without any evolutionary patterns, fine-tuning off the big bang from nothing, in which should have been the complete opposite. Materialism fails dude, get the hint. Wake up a little, instead of listening to your bullshit textbooks trying to sell you an agenda to go along with their corruptness. There’s a ton more evidence, but I tend to waste my time against ignorant, and closed minded people.
@@wymanspace4173 Hi ! You exist, because there is a complex programming in your DNA. Actual information management, inside you. You can't have even the simplest protein, ( or cell ) without DNA. And, the important thing here, is that DNA, isn't some kind of "juice floating inside your cells" , it IS actually a: LANGUAGE ( ie: the genetic "code" .. "code is a system of rules to convert information-such as a letter, word, sound, image, or gesture-into another form or representation, sometimes shortened" ). If you have two ears, it is because DNA actually have that info clearly expressed and stored. No language makes itself without someone actually designing or developing that language. If that would be the case, it actually requires much more faith to believe that, than to believe in the possibility of a higher level being, that actually designed the things that we actually know, have a lot of design and clear planning ( like the amazing DNA )..This was done by a Creator that cares about you opinion. You can choose to reject that creator that actually gave you the possibility to live, ( and wants you to learn things and be better, ) and see what happens next. Or you can actually be grateful , and be curious about him, try to know him and reach him. Two options. Guess what of these two paths he actually likes more ? .. :) Note. If He exists, and created all this, and created beings like us, capable of communicating: Do you think He may be able to communicate ? Offcourse, yes. From a all the possible messages by God, there is only one that has the quality mark, we could expect from that being: and the quality mark, are the ancient prophecies fulfilled in Jesus. Lots of prophecies writen many, many centuries beforee Christ, talk about Jesus. Even the sacrifice done in the cross, is clearly described in a text dating of 740 years before Christ. ( Just read Isaiah 53 .. ) Ok.. Please tell me if you have any question, I will be happy to interchange ideas.
Awesome
Then what designer designed the designer, and who designed him?
+ *Lexter Dexter* Intelligence is a feature of neural networks. Rather than being a "thing" in itself, it's a pattern in other things, be they neurons or transistors. Which is the case for the designer, and why are they excused from being created?
Thank our God he is faithful
This video got me so pumped I would just love to do a video for your channel. Are you hiring editors? Really like this. It's like a trailer for a movie almost.
Keep it up guys! These videos are short enough and pithy enough to do the work. Call the lies of the wicked in the open and the Elect will hear you..
I like this guy. LET THERE BE TRUTH!!!!
"The FOOL is his heart, sayeth there is no God"...............Nature itself cries out in glory, the existence of God!
This program is brought to you with love by God, the creature of Heaven, Earth and man.
Just saying there is a designer and not saying who it is isn't evidence either. O.J. did it, you know it , I know it and they knew it but, they couldn't show how so...
Where does intelligence come from and how can it interact with matter?
The first 2 chapters of genesis, describe life directly created at differing levels and differing times on an old earth. Jehovah God through his son are responsible and there is no evolution involved. Animals, insects, bacteria, plant life and marine life have their time slots, a major one is the cambrian explosion, when in the space of 5--10 million years 26 new organisms emerged all of a sudden. about 10 minutes when compared to a 4 and a half million years of earth.
Foamh
"Where does intelligence come from"
I keep it in a box under my bed. I'll sell you some. :-)
"Beam Me Up Scotty. There's No Intelligent Life Down Here."
That should be 4 and a half BILLION years.
intelligence comes from a personal agent and intelligence does not interact with matter. The personal agent interacts with matter with intelligence acting upon the personal agent.
It is this very problem of interaction that led most people to reject Cartesian dualism.
I can't give a good answer but I do believe that it can be resolved and as such it is an important area of research.
I couldn’t be the only one that thought this was an SCP video...
You did a GREAT JOB on this video! I've been watching James Tour and the battle growing to support evolution most recently. We need well constructed videos like this!!!!
Great work. Thank you
Fabulous stuff.
Let's just say that if some scientists in a sterile lab full of the latest kit,did manage to create a cell from scratch, all they would prove is that a being with sufficient intelligence and resources can create life,and until its observed happening naturally (which it never will) then intelligent creation is the only explanation.Great vid. God rules in the kingdom of men.
One day a bunch of scientist came to God,
They said God, we have discovered so much and know pretty much everything, that we've decided that we don't need you anymore, so could you please just go away.
God looks at them and says, "Is that so? Well tell you what lets just have ourselves a good old man making contest. Just like I did in Genesis. If you make a better man than I do, then I'll leave you alone."
The scientists huddled together whispering about appendixes, blind spots and nipples on men. Finally the head scientist came back to God and said, "You're on."
With that the lead scientist then scooped up some dirt and headed back to the other scientists to begin creating the perfect human.
Just at that moment God said to the lead scientist, "Hey, go get your own dirt."
Intelligence is only known to be a feature of living things. It's understood that intelligence can only be present in a living thing (or in a synthetic organism created by another intelligence), since the processes needed to create intelligence are only seen in natural selection.
In short, intelligence is an outcome of life. To say that life can only be an outcome of intelligence is a circular argument.
@@XCyclonusX I loved and laughed at that little story. Do you write books?
Well without the kit (in other words: the materials composing the kit) they wouldn't be able to create life entirely from "scratch", so technically speaking, it's impossible to create life absolutely from scratch, you'd still need the help of the already available materials to do so.
@@XCyclonusX haha good one.👍
Absolutely right.
Excellent job. Worth a share.
Awesome video. Contratulations Discovery Science
"The First Gene" by David Abel
I so agree with this video. The more the may discover, the more questions there are. There is only ONE Creator/Architect/Author/Designer (not some Alien from outer space) etc, who created such complexity in His creations, with a plan and a purpose, much of which man cannot comprehend. Consciousness, DNA, Cells, Energy etc., are way beyond the finite human mind. "As our Creator of ALL things revealed "My ways and thoughts are higher than man. How can one created, possibly think he can be as our Infinite Creator. Man can only take that which has been created and create something out of it. "Mans wisdom is but foolishness". They cannot cure the "common cold", only treat its systems. ( As with many other illnesses).
Enjoyed this video!
I understand the logical fallacy of the "call to authority" to prove an issue. One can call out Stephen Hawking and say "because he was so smart and an atheist, therefore, I must believe as he did."
OK, let's get to Hawking: He was a cosmologist not an organic chemist. Second, he had a tough life, facing motor-neuron disease and being robbed of his mobility and speaking from a young age. Nobody would blame him for being an atheist. He was granted an enormously powerful mathematical intellect. True. But few of us would trade places with him. I would be more comfortable with his saying: "Look at me. Now you can understand why I am an atheist." But instead, he tried to use his math to disprove God. He failed. information is conserved in the Universe.
Now to Dr. Tour: I studied organic chemistry and biochemistry in college and medical school. I am here to tell you that James Tour, PhD, has an ORDER OF MAGNITUDE higher IQ than I ever did. I am not necessarily using the "call to authority" to prove Intelligent Design. But I will say that the arguments for ID are COMPELLING AND LOGICAL. They are falsifiable (as was proven with the hoax of "junk DNA."
ID is not warmed-over creationism. I have nothing against creationism, but I don't look at it as science. ID is in a different category.
ACCEPTING DARWINIAN EVOLUTION IS THE CANCELLING OF GOD. That was his intention. Moreover....it is WRONG. Evolution cannot and could not create life. Ever. Life and information is a direct refutation of the 2nd law of thermodynamics. It is the reverse. The proof of God is a statistical proof. Look to the obverse of the 2nd Law. It takes energy and vast information to fight against the 2nd Law. It cannot happen by chance.
Sanjosemike (no longer in CA)
how did they manufacture the genome
frya tuk Original life used rna not DNA
Scientists require repeatable observation via experimentation in order to ascertain facts, otherwise it's just speculation and theory. If the goal is knowledge then closing the door on any theory is dumb but to embrace them blindly is also foolish. Watch enough stuff about evolution and the word "design" is bantered about by adherents as though "nothing" decides on improvements to an organism, it just gets better over time by chance. A hard thing to swallow😶
Just a thought. How can you have the origin of life if you already have an intelligence? Isn’t that intelligence life? And wouldn’t that intelligence pre date the life you say shows a beginning?
These are FIRE! Thanks for making them.
Racional culture, of book Universe in Desincantment
Merci de traduire en français.
This is an EXCEPTIONAL video! I believe that both the argument from design and the fine-tuning argument present some of the most compelling evidence in favor of theism. Thank you for sharing this!
Great vid.
Even creating artificial life in the lab would require lots of intelligent design purified chemicals and modifying of pre-existing parts from donor cells!
This is awesome. Please guys go on a tour to major cities. But you have to make it exciting like this video. Sometimes it gets to complicated to follow. Make the analogy simple and powerful. I'll buy a ticket!
Intelligence is required to understand and explain creation; intelligence is not required for the evolution narrative, merely rationalization, insults and resorting to the abstruse.
And censoring scientists who REFUSE to march lockstep to the Materialist worldview. And don't forget, also miss-representing people who believe in God, as being uneducated & closed-minded.
By design
Thanks a lot for your work!!!
Yes it’s a mystery how life started and the complexity involved. But every agreed study, hypothesis, theory 100% points to life starting in a very basic form, bacteria-simple structures evolving into more complex life.
No idea how it started but tend to agree with the majority of the scientific community that some form of abiogenesis occurred. Otherwise how on earth (Geddit?) could any designer could be that patient....
Zero evidence for a supernatural involvement.
Personally, I love every discussion on this apart from.... God did it.
Hi John john you are one of the few naturalists (I'm presuming this) that is willing to admit that they have no clue as to how life began. The reason why the majority of the scientific community BELIEVE that some form of undirected abiogenesis occurred is because they begin with a naturalistic/materialistic world view. The fact remains that the probability of this happening is zero or very close to it - irrespective of how much time the dirty pond was boiling and then freezing. The "simple" forms of life you refer to are inordinately complex. Then you go on to infer that any designer could not be so patient - which of course is a philosophical statement and not a scientific one. Have a read of Thomas Nagle's (atheist) book Mind and Cosmos: Why the Materialist Neo-Darwinian Conception of Nature is Almost Certainly False i
+ *Graham Henry* There's literally no alternative to abiogenesis. Given that life hasn't always existed, there must have been some transition to life from lack of life.
@@demiligne3456 Hi Demiligne. Yes totally agree that life hasn't always existed. The issue is whether you BELIEVE that it arose by chance or not. If you believe it arose by chance by pure naturalistic means then you do so in the teeth of the evidence that such an event has zero probability.

If we come from the intelligent design of some intelligent consciousness So where does that intelligent consciousness come from , that question is also complicated to explain and materialistic model also hard to explain as it say everything is product of probability .
Does we need to revise all the scientific discoveries we made and experimental interpretation we made and think for a new theory which is not conflicting with the view points of the people of science
We have finite minds and it is outside the 4 dimensions of existence to comprehend how the creator has always existed. But the evidence for his existence is so overwhelming, = undeniable. An accurate knowledge and UNDERSTANDING of the Bible would help you. Ask Jehovahs witnesses for a study and learn safe passage into the coming paradise earth.
One looks at the cell as a super factory and exclaims, “Oh my God!” Bingo, my dear exclaimer.
Life is the equal and opposite reaction to entropy.
its not equal is it?
This description of a cell as a factory is a great learning tool. Please share it.
(I know you always keep an open mind): The cell is like a factory. It has various, computer-like hierarchically organized systems of hardware and software. It has various language-based informational systems, a translation system and huge amounts of precise and instructional, specific, complex information.
It has storage and extraction systems to make all the parts needed to produce the factory and replicate itself. It makes the scaffold structure that permits the building of the protective wall. It forms and sizes the walls with gates that permit cargo in and out, and recognition mechanisms that only let the right cargo in. It has specific sites and production lines, "employees" busily instructed to produce all kinds of necessary products, parts and sub-parts with the right form and size, with the right materials. It produces others that mount the parts together in the right order, in the right place, in the right sequence, at the right time.
It has sophisticated check and error detection mechanisms all along the production process with the ability to compare correctly produced parts to faulty ones and discard the faulty ones. Then it repeats the process to make the correct ones. It has highways and cargo carriers that have tags which recognize where to drop the cargo when it's needed, and cleans up waste using waste bins and sophisticated recycle mechanisms. It has storage departments. It produces its own energy and shuttles it where and when it's needed, and last but not least, reproduces itself completely.
The salient thing is that the individual parts and compartments have no function on their own. They had to emerge all at once. No step-wise manner is possible, all systems are interdependent and irreducible. And it could not be through evolution, since evolution depends on fully working, self replicating cells in order to function. How can someone rationally argue that the origin of the most sophisticated factory in the universe would be based on natural occurrences, without involving any guiding intelligence?
Excellent Summary.
@@geobla6600 Ditto. Saved me the trouble.
I love these videos
I love this series!
Love these. Keep them coming !!!!
Not possible...every cell has a code...code is a form of language...language implies a mind.
Bravo!!! Abiogenesis can be explained in one word... Absurd.
Lol, definitely.
