    Many of you requested all of the 12 Days of Evolution episodes in one big video, so here it is! Share 'em one at a time, or share the whole thing… whatever feels like the natural selection.
    I hope you enjoyed this series. It was definitely a challenge (a FUN challenge, of course) to make this many videos in a short time and to pack this much information into them. I'm really interested to hear your reactions and feedback, so hit me up on social media or leave a comment below and tell me what you thought. Any other subjects you'd like to see a miniseries on in the future?
    I'll be back in January with a new video!

      +It's Okay To Be Smart I'm discussing with my friend about a task from physics.It mentions a constant force.While my friend claims that 'constant force' means that the force affects the object throughout the whole time mentioned in the task (2 seconds),I claim that 'constant force' only means that the force remains the same during its influence,not that it necessarily affects the object throughout the whole time mentioned in the task.Which one of us is right?

      +Luka Ravlić (luka000sb) I know you didn't ask me but I'd like to help :P In my opinion, gravity is a constant force, because it affects the object in study throughout the study with the same strenght, so I conclude that both of you are right :D

    • @lukaravlic9398
      @lukaravlic9398 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Frederico Lourenço Actually,only one of us can be right.If she is right,the force affects the object for 2 seconds.If I'm right,the force affects the object for 1.5 seconds (thst's what it says in the task).Depending on the time the force affects the object,we get different solutions.

    Good to see a video that does not need to bash creationist or feed any ones ego because they weren't unfortunate enough to be brainwashed by their upbringing.
    If you ever wish to convince someone that your point of view is correct, be nice and reasonable to them, goes for most situations in life.

      I think the ones who do that is just a result from their interactions/experiences with religious people, whether directly or indirectly. Given how hard headed they are and, for example, how so many of them resort to incredibly un-proportional bitterness & rudeness almost by default, simply because you don't agree with them. It certainly doesn't leave a good impression or makes them see them in any sort of positive light.

      the reason there is no other theory is because evolution is fact, so there is no reason to believe otherwise, unless you're a theist, and believe that everything happens from the magic man in the sky.

      Nathaniel Lee nobody “blindly” believes scientists. The scientists’ job is to present the evidence, and if the evidence is sufficiently convincing and can be independently and repeatedly verified by others then it is tentatively accepted as true (I say tentatively because there is always the possibility of new data changing our ideas). Unlike religion, nobody ties their identity to scientific ideas, so changing your mind on them when new evidence does overturn outdated ideas isn’t a problem.

Why would god randomly decide that they should have such similar brains when other animals dont? Newsflash he didnt. Evolution did it. We have living evidence of the similarity, denying that is stupid. Back when i was religious i always thought that we had no evidence of the forms that adam and eve had. Its not like we have a photo. They could be anything but even if they were humans they werent modern humans they would have been another earlier human species. If you want to believe in a magical man at least use evidence and explanations of that to explain your beliefs rather than pretending that you are all knowing even in the face of evidence to the contrary.

      The eye argument would be a great one if we would consider those who are born blind as second class citizens. The question is what defines us as humans? Body brains? if our body. how much is required to meet the crytirium. No legs what if you where only a torso or a head? Now if it is mind what of those who are terminally I'll are they no longer human? Now then if none of that changes what a human is my only argument would be simply that an ape is a human.

    What annoys me is when people ask why something happens, how something knows to do something or what the purpose or meaning of a phenomenon is. There is no reason why, the thing doesn't know to do it and there is no purpose, it just happened that way because of the specifics of the laws of physics, chemistry and biology.
    Just accept that there's no meaning, purpose or conscious reason behind things that aren't human-controlled and move on.

Please watch also "There was no first Human" movie. We didn't evolve from the monkey directly but a form of monkey was in our path can be seen in a period of our path and moreover not only monkey also kind of a racoon even semender or fish... just try to understand the micro changes between the X number of generations, and imagine how many generations passed from the beginnig of the life on a single cell till now...

How many species are dead forever then? We are causing damage but does it really matter? We should try and save life but no matter what happens. Another mass extinction will occur again. It's inevitable. We're a mere bump. Life and death are in a constant struggle to outcompete the other. That's the funny thing. One cannot exist without the other so it's a never ending cycle until the universe completely dies

But the term 'evolutionary theory' does not refer to any single hypothesis, and it certainly is not guesswork. As used in science, 'theory' refers to the entire body of work on the understanding and application of a field of knowledge. When we refer to evolutionary theory, we are referring to our understanding of the mechanisms that result in biological changes in populations over time, and the use of that understanding to interpret changes and interactions of biological organisms."*

    This was a really good video. There was only one thing I think you got wrong or at least didn't emphasize enough; that being the fact that we didn't just come from apes; we ARE apes. We are just as much an ape as our ancestors that were apes. We never stopped being apes. Likewise, modern birds are descendants of dinosaurs and thus are still dinosaurs. Ancient dinosaurs from before the mass extinction event are known as non-avian dinosaurs to differentiate them from modern dinosaurs (birds). Life doesn't evolve from one thing into something else. It continues to be what it has always been, but with just more. If you take a dog and breed it in a way that it has exactly the same features as a cat, it looks like a cat, meows like a cat, has the temperament of a cat, it doesn't become a cat. It is still a dog. You can't change who you are descended from.

This is actually an important concept to understanding evolution. Maybe say "evolution that humans can easily observe" is often a longer gradual process...but the evolution itself has to happen pretty much every generation for a while for anything to happen.

    Loved this video, and thought it described many of the misconceptions of evolution that many creationists have very well. The only thing I'd suggest changing if you address this topic again is the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, and disorder. The 2nd Law addresses the increase in entropy, not disorder (which is the commonly misapplied term creationists use).
    I've never heard the silent cricket example before - thanks! It's even more interesting that both populations resulted in silent crickets, though they took different evolutionary paths.

      +TheIronwil yeah great video, we finally get a real prediction from someone supporting evolutionary philosophies (instead of a fake one like the chrosome #2 fusion that never happened and wasn't even a prediction, just an erronuous irrational and unreasonable "postdiction", you can look that one up on wikipedia or a dictionary).

      +TheIronwil you gotta love the "approved by science" sign on the background there as well, as if "science" is some kind of wizard organization wielding a magic stick of truth. The word "science" comes from the Latin word "scientia" meaning "knowledge". The knowledge that would be of interest to what Newton would call an "experimental philosopher" and Whewell would call a "scientist" is of course knowledge about realities/certainties/truths/facts (these last 4 words are all synonyms).
      From wiki:
      Until the late 19th or early 20th century, scientists were called "natural philosophers" or "men of science".
      English philosopher and historian of science William Whewell coined the term scientist in 1833,...
      Whewell wrote of "an increasing proclivity of separation and dismemberment" in the sciences; while highly specific terms proliferated-chemist, mathematician, naturalist-the broad term "philosopher" was no longer satisfactory to group together those who pursued science, without the caveats of "natural" or "experimental" philosopher.
      [end wiki quote]
      “As in Mathematicks, so in Natural Philosophy, the Investigation of difficult Things by the Method of Analysis, ought ever to precede the Method of Composition. This Analysis consists in making Experiments and Observations, and in drawing general Conclusions from them by Induction, and admitting of no Objections against the Conclusions, but such as are taken from Experiments, or other certain Truths. For Hypotheses are not to be regarded in experimental Philosophy.”
      - Isaac Newton (from Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica)
      The Encyclopaedia Britannica on inductive reasoning:
      "When a person uses a number of established facts to draw a general conclusion, he uses inductive reasoning. THIS IS THE KIND OF LOGIC NORMALLY USED IN THE SCIENCES. ..."

      +Uenbg The fusion of chromosome #2 was an excellent prediction. Not sure where you were going with that one. Also, evolution isn't a "philosophy" in the sense you're meaning. It's a field of scientific study, a scientific theory, which also has several peer-reviewed scientific journals dedicated to publishing papers on this field alone. When we found that we had a different number of chromosomes than the other great apes, only this fusion would properly explain why that occurred. The fact that we found the fused chromosomes was icing on the cake.

    Creationists use a Darwin quote to insist that the evolution of the eye is impossible.
    If you run into a creationist using this argument and they show you the Darwin quote, simply show them what the rest of the paragraph from that quote says. The very next couple of sentences disproves their argument.
    The creationist argument about the eye is perhaps the most classic example of quote-mining.

    5:27 This happens frequently with plants. Plants are unusually tolerant to large-scale copying and merger of DNA. Plants can instantly speciate through the occasional whole genome duplication, and since many plants can self-fertilize, the new hybrid can become its own species.
