Hello. So you believe the claims that some populations of fish, frogs, reptiles, mammals and more could (and did), over generations, learn to speak, read and write English and all languages, play baseball and football, design airplanes and computers and more, if you just 'give it enough time'?
@@matteomastrodomenico1231 Hello. If it's science, one wouldn't need to believe in it. They're free to believe in whatever they wish - but they're insisting we ignore all of science and all of biology and call their beliefs that only happen in their imaginations science instead.
@@matteomastrodomenico1231 Hardly. No evolutionist in the world can prove the following is wrong nor can they address any of it and just throw ad hominem and run away, which is all evolutionists do. Others will see and notice how evolutionists are all about deception. Science is about the repeatable portion of reality, not things like common descent evolution that contradict repeatable reality, can only be believed in, and they call reasons to believe in it 'evidence'. The bottom line is the topic of the origin of all biological diversity is beyond the scope of science as beliefs, and reasons to believe in it, are all anyone can bring to the table. Here's what *is* science: A.k.a., well documented and published even in evolutionists' own papers (when they happen to include something that's actually observable, repeatable, verifiable biological, scientific fact when they're telling their common descent stories and why they believe in it) that demonstrates common descent from a first life form is anti-science. Science shows that it's observable, repeatable, verifiable scientific fact that, no matter how many generations go by, no matter how much "change in genetic composition during successive generations", no matter how much "change in allele frequencies", no matter how much "development of new species", no matter how much "natural selection acting on genetic variation among individuals", no matter how much "adaptation", no matter how much "mutation", no matter how much "speciation", no matter how much "migration", no matter how much "genetic drift", no matter how much "insert other claims here" no matter how many generations go by, ALL populations of: fish remain fish amphibians remain amphibians, canines remain canines, felines remain felines, reptiles remain reptiles, birds remain birds, viruses remain viruses, animals that never had lungs to breath air do not evolve lungs animals that never had hearts to pump blood do not evolve hearts animals that never had eyes to see do not evolve eyes animals that never had brains do not evolve brains animals that never had mouths do not evolve mouths living things that never had a reproductive system do not evolve a reproductive system animals that never had (insert organ here) remain living things without that organ, and so on. There are many more such groups. Science shows that the "common descent from a first life form" evolution (some call Darwinian evolution, some call theory of common descent) is anti-science. Evolutionist can never address these facts - many unfortunately just fall back on ad hominem, showing how they're seem to be really about deception that's contrary to actual science.

This Is one of the things I most like about TH-cam. In school, we never learned about different humans. I thought we were the only ones of our kind, but thanks to education through videos, we can learn anything we want.
Alex K - "but thanks to education through videos, we can learn anything we want". How do you know that the information being presented by the video is correct? What you are seeing on the video is what the creators of the video wanted you to see. The creators of the video may have an agenda. Independent research is required to insure that the information is factual. Don't assume that everything you view is the truth. For example, there are dozens, maybe hundreds, of videos giving reasons why the earth is flat. Are these videos factual?

Thank you. I was just about to go to bed and last thing I want right now is to have another existential crisis keeping me up. I did that all throughout my teens and I am trying to avoid that in my 30s.
I've always thought how incredible it is how quickly humanity seems to have went from having no widespread long distance communications at all to what we have today, all of which happened in the last 100 or so years and the world wide web only within the last 30. It really makes you think what the possibilities could be in another 25-50 years, within the lifespan of most people. I personally was born in the 90s, so lived a part of my childhood before it was as big as it is today, my family didn't get proper internet until broadband became popular in the mid 2000s.
But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, even to the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” -Daniel 12:4

One interesting thing to remember is, despite being isolated from bigger human society for thousands of years, evolution still happened more or less the same way to all us. Those isolated people still evolved to look similar to us and they have more or less the same mental and physical abilities like us. However, an actual person from 20,000 years ago would have drastically different mental and physical abilities than us and the isolated tribal people of today.
@@SofiyaRaj well shared culture and similar survival techniques allowed for similar but slightly different evolution, and funny enough 1/5 of all Asians to this day have roots tracing back to Genghis Khan, as he eliminated the game and mated with like, every women in a 2000 miles radius, so 1/5 of all Asians have very similar roots and evolutionary traits, but you can definitely tell where people’s evolutions changed, but for the most part due to humans sticking to familiar practices, evolution of culture and hunting strategies was slow, and spread faster than it changed, so likely that lead to evolution more or less being the same in most aspects
@@GamerPro-wk8bz just look up that one tribe off the coast of India, they are notorious for killing a man in a helicopter by throwing spears at it, the Indian government put out a mandate making it illegal to go to the island
@@GamerPro-wk8bz Sentinelese people. They live on North Sentinel island in the Bay of Bengal. The Indian government prohibits any travel to this island and the tribe living there are protected. This is mainly because of their violent reactions whenever someone tried to establish contact with them. In order to keep them safe from our diseases and risk their extinction, the government decided to just let them be. It's illegal to fish or sail within 5 nautical miles of that island. Though there is no proof of the Sentinelese being cannibals, you better not go there if you have a will to live. The Sentinelese have been isolated from the rest of the world for more than 50,000 years now. I have travelled to Andaman and Nicobar islands which are closest civilized places to the north sentinel island. I was fascinated to learn about the Sentinelese when I was in Andaman. You should definitely look it up. There's even videos of them shooting arrows at helicopters.
We really are lucky to be living nowadays. Why do we complain about a long day at the airport when a medieval king would give everything he had just to have one ride above the clouds? I would LOVE more history videos, for what it's worth. Especially about the Greek and Roman times.
I would appreciate that if they were more inclusive. They don't even have animations of non-Europeans (even when those in question were not actually European or the development of Europeans had not even happened yet). All of humans throughout human history to the present were not Europeans. Most of present humanity is not European. This presentation combined with a focus on the Roman and Greek empires would really put this channel in line with white supremacists narratives of civilization.

I'm an anthropology graduate and this video nicely surmised the things I learned in my numerous anthropology courses over several years. I was very pleased with the way biological and cultural aspects of hominin evolution were integrated. I was most pleased with the discussion of the importance of language and the distinction between anatomically and behaviorally modern humans. I'm also a huge fan of the colorful graphics. Please keep making videos of this kind.
my current hypothesis is that god had made proto humans such as homo erectus to kind of experiment and when he got us, he chose us and we became the dominant species on earth

My Ancestors: “I hear a chicken stepping on a branch in the forest past the mountains” Me: “I sat on my knees for 30 minutes and am now handicapped for a while”
I require a chair to sit in whenever I travel long distances, and to have my abode magically maintain a comfortable temperature. I believe my ancestors would refer to me as, "that wuss-bag"
Apart from a few secluded cultures, most humans would fall under the "wuss-bag" category. I've never for a second thought one morning, "hey, some giant lion didn't eat me alive overnight...cool!". We've shielded ourselves from nature. I'm not sure if it's a good or a bad thing, as genetically we're insulating ourselves from outside stimuli.

Wolves and dogs are genetically the same species, the dogs being a subspecies. While grey wolves are Canis Lupus, dogs are Canis Lupus Familiaris. If I were to make a controversial comparation, I'd say dogs are to wolves what europeans are to native americans.
More like wolves are to dogs what Europeans are to native Americans. Only it wouldn't be Europeans only, it would be Asians. Mostly. There have been more than one migration from EurAsia to North America in the last 10,000-12,000 years. Not the other way around.
@@jilliansmith7123 It's said the wolves that were domesticated into dogs don't exist anymore because they evolved into the wolves we have nowadays. Dogs and wolves evolved separatedly, just like europeans and native americans. -Asians don't count because I say so- I'm just theorizing about that last part though, you may be right and I may be wrong, I don't specifically have all the details about the migration to North America.
Actually, Issac Asimov pitched the idea... wrote a short story that he later expanded to a book, both called The Ugly Little Boy, about a Neanderthal boy being time-travel-kidnapped.
@douglas wahid But. I mean. Neanderthals made it to 40k years ago-ish... now you've got me wondering about the ethics of kidnapping not a homo sapiens, but a neanderthal or denisovan...
I'd love to see a documentary on the "birth" of the Teenager. How culture shifted and climbed out of WW2 and became the transformative lifestyle of the 50's and so forth.

@@mikeparr8131 yeah kinda, the book also mentions some biological behaviors, things about religion, goverments and companies. It’s amazing how much information we can learn nowadays
To a degree. But those early weapons came about because of Competition, with both nature and other humans. Then those cities prospered under strong leaders, who became strong as a result of competition. Competition in humanity creates a form of technological and social evolution, where by the less favorable disappears over time and the more favorable prospers. People co-operated in that they came together to compete as a group against another group.
I know it's hard for you north american dudes to realize this, but it's for real. Study some anthropology and you'll see. The human history came a long way, and competition only became the "supreme value" of some societies in the 18th century. Right about now, this kind of thinking is getting in the way of our progress. Peace.
Competition has, amongst other things, gotten us to the moon you dumb fuck. There is a lot of beauty in Kurzgesagt's video, yet the conclusion you come to is some "feel good" bullshit lesson to try to harvest some likes online. I fucking hate people like you. Go fuck yourself.
Great Grandfather: Back in my day, i had to raise the livestock for my food Grandfather: Back in my day, i had to tend the crops for my food Dad: Back in my day, i worked as a milk runner for my food Me: I had to walk to the fridge to get food
But it's not.. I didn't like how sugarcoated the whole explanation was. Most of the things that exist today and were build throughout history, were done by slaves - of any kind. Greed and power is what led to kingdoms, empires, and big cities. Not the "exchange of information and cultures". Human history is full of slavery, misery, murders, tortures, genocides, racism, hateful religions, infinite sexism & homophobia, etc.. Except for very few people who were privileged & held power, all the rest were pretty much miserable & poor as fuck, slaves or expendables.
It is. Everything we've done has been accomplished through language, the factor that seperates man from beast. People love to talk about how humanity is the most violent of all the species on the Earth, but in actuality, we are the most gregarious. We liberated ourselves from the whims of evolution by using language to pass on our abilities from one generaion to the next, and we liberated ourselves from the rule of nature by forming communities. Society arose to protect the individual from hunger and thirst and violence, and in exchange asked that he put his talents to improving it for the next generation. Granted, there've been a lot of bumps and mess ups along the way, but that's been the basis of society. The idea that no man is an island and that to help another is to improve the world we live in.

Hello. So you believe the claims that some populations of fish, frogs, reptiles, mammals and more could (and did), over generations, learn to speak, read and write English and all languages, play baseball and football, design airplanes and computers and more, if you just 'give it enough time'?
@@ForumLight Why wouldn't that be believable?
@@matteomastrodomenico1231 Hello. If it's science, one wouldn't need to believe in it. They're free to believe in whatever they wish - but they're insisting we ignore all of science and all of biology and call their beliefs that only happen in their imaginations science instead.
@@ForumLight Exactly, you just need to understand it. You're the one ignoring science here.
@@matteomastrodomenico1231 Hardly. No evolutionist in the world can prove the following is wrong nor can they address any of it and just throw ad hominem and run away, which is all evolutionists do. Others will see and notice how evolutionists are all about deception.
Science is about the repeatable portion of reality, not things like common descent evolution that contradict repeatable reality, can only be believed in, and they call reasons to believe in it 'evidence'.
The bottom line is the topic of the origin of all biological diversity is beyond the scope of science as beliefs, and reasons to believe in it, are all anyone can bring to the table.
Here's what *is* science: A.k.a., well documented and published even in evolutionists' own papers (when they happen to include something that's actually observable, repeatable, verifiable biological, scientific fact when they're telling their common descent stories and why they believe in it) that demonstrates common descent from a first life form is anti-science. Science shows that it's observable, repeatable, verifiable scientific fact that, no matter how many generations go by,
no matter how much "change in genetic composition during successive generations",
no matter how much "change in allele frequencies",
no matter how much "development of new species",
no matter how much "natural selection acting on genetic variation among individuals",
no matter how much "adaptation",
no matter how much "mutation",
no matter how much "speciation",
no matter how much "migration",
no matter how much "genetic drift",
no matter how much "insert other claims here"
no matter how many generations go by, ALL populations of:
fish remain fish
amphibians remain amphibians,
canines remain canines,
felines remain felines,
reptiles remain reptiles,
birds remain birds,
viruses remain viruses,
animals that never had lungs to breath air do not evolve lungs
animals that never had hearts to pump blood do not evolve hearts
animals that never had eyes to see do not evolve eyes
animals that never had brains do not evolve brains
animals that never had mouths do not evolve mouths
living things that never had a reproductive system do not evolve a reproductive system
animals that never had (insert organ here) remain living things without that organ, and so on.
There are many more such groups.
Science shows that the "common descent from a first life form" evolution (some call Darwinian evolution, some call theory of common descent) is anti-science.
Evolutionist can never address these facts - many unfortunately just fall back on ad hominem, showing how they're seem to be really about deception that's contrary to actual science.
I feel pretty confident that humans wiped out the other species, just look at how much we hate each other for the littlest things.

Wow okay
Came here for education and left with an existential crisis
geeklette99 watch their other videos too... this is not even that existential

Yeah

Thank you. I was just about to go to bed and last thing I want right now is to have another existential crisis keeping me up. I did that all throughout my teens and I am trying to avoid that in my 30s.
I've always thought how incredible it is how quickly humanity seems to have went from having no widespread long distance communications at all to what we have today, all of which happened in the last 100 or so years and the world wide web only within the last 30. It really makes you think what the possibilities could be in another 25-50 years, within the lifespan of most people. I personally was born in the 90s, so lived a part of my childhood before it was as big as it is today, my family didn't get proper internet until broadband became popular in the mid 2000s.

Fun fact, even after 4000+ years of civilization, there are still uncolonized tribes, who haven’t even heard of the rest of the world
One interesting thing to remember is, despite being isolated from bigger human society for thousands of years, evolution still happened more or less the same way to all us. Those isolated people still evolved to look similar to us and they have more or less the same mental and physical abilities like us. However, an actual person from 20,000 years ago would have drastically different mental and physical abilities than us and the isolated tribal people of today.
@@SofiyaRaj well shared culture and similar survival techniques allowed for similar but slightly different evolution, and funny enough 1/5 of all Asians to this day have roots tracing back to Genghis Khan, as he eliminated the game and mated with like, every women in a 2000 miles radius, so 1/5 of all Asians have very similar roots and evolutionary traits, but you can definitely tell where people’s evolutions changed, but for the most part due to humans sticking to familiar practices, evolution of culture and hunting strategies was slow, and spread faster than it changed, so likely that lead to evolution more or less being the same in most aspects
Do you mind listing few? I am curious and please make sure they are real and you can provide some proofs.
@@GamerPro-wk8bz just look up that one tribe off the coast of India, they are notorious for killing a man in a helicopter by throwing spears at it, the Indian government put out a mandate making it illegal to go to the island
@@GamerPro-wk8bz Sentinelese people. They live on North Sentinel island in the Bay of Bengal. The Indian government prohibits any travel to this island and the tribe living there are protected. This is mainly because of their violent reactions whenever someone tried to establish contact with them. In order to keep them safe from our diseases and risk their extinction, the government decided to just let them be. It's illegal to fish or sail within 5 nautical miles of that island. Though there is no proof of the Sentinelese being cannibals, you better not go there if you have a will to live.
The Sentinelese have been isolated from the rest of the world for more than 50,000 years now. I have travelled to Andaman and Nicobar islands which are closest civilized places to the north sentinel island. I was fascinated to learn about the Sentinelese when I was in Andaman. You should definitely look it up. There's even videos of them shooting arrows at helicopters.
We really are lucky to be living nowadays. Why do we complain about a long day at the airport when a medieval king would give everything he had just to have one ride above the clouds?

I would appreciate that if they were more inclusive. They don't even have animations of non-Europeans (even when those in question were not actually European or the development of Europeans had not even happened yet). All of humans throughout human history to the present were not Europeans. Most of present humanity is not European. This presentation combined with a focus on the Roman and Greek empires would really put this channel in line with white supremacists narratives of civilization.

More like wolves are to dogs what Europeans are to native Americans. Only it wouldn't be Europeans only, it would be Asians. Mostly. There have been more than one migration from EurAsia to North America in the last 10,000-12,000 years. Not the other way around.

To a degree. But those early weapons came about because of Competition, with both nature and other humans. Then those cities prospered under strong leaders, who became strong as a result of competition. Competition in humanity creates a form of technological and social evolution, where by the less favorable disappears over time and the more favorable prospers. People co-operated in that they came together to compete as a group against another group.
I know it's hard for you north american dudes to realize this, but it's for real. Study some anthropology and you'll see. The human history came a long way, and competition only became the "supreme value" of some societies in the 18th century. Right about now, this kind of thinking is getting in the way of our progress. Peace.
Competition has, amongst other things, gotten us to the moon you dumb fuck.
There is a lot of beauty in Kurzgesagt's video, yet the conclusion you come to is some "feel good" bullshit lesson to try to harvest some likes online. I fucking hate people like you.
Go fuck yourself.
AlexZeBeast Amen. Plus human history is full of horrific events.
+AlexZeBeast go have some therapy.

The Technology make us like that. We are not useful for the world. We are just some parasites. We continue consuming and destroying this world
It ain't much but it's honest work
😂😂😂😂😂😂
He makes humanity sound so beautifully
But it's not.. I didn't like how sugarcoated the whole explanation was. Most of the things that exist today and were build throughout history, were done by slaves - of any kind. Greed and power is what led to kingdoms, empires, and big cities. Not the "exchange of information and cultures". Human history is full of slavery, misery, murders, tortures, genocides, racism, hateful religions, infinite sexism & homophobia, etc.. Except for very few people who were privileged & held power, all the rest were pretty much miserable & poor as fuck, slaves or expendables.
+Msl LogYt he didn't need to touch on those things all he needed to do was explain how humans came to be through a summarized manner
"Most of the things that exist today and were build throughout history, were done by slaves - of any kind" that isn't remotely true
Is it not?
It is. Everything we've done has been accomplished through language, the factor that seperates man from beast. People love to talk about how humanity is the most violent of all the species on the Earth, but in actuality, we are the most gregarious. We liberated ourselves from the whims of evolution by using language to pass on our abilities from one generaion to the next, and we liberated ourselves from the rule of nature by forming communities. Society arose to protect the individual from hunger and thirst and violence, and in exchange asked that he put his talents to improving it for the next generation. Granted, there've been a lot of bumps and mess ups along the way, but that's been the basis of society. The idea that no man is an island and that to help another is to improve the world we live in.
