This was an excellent lecture. It reminds me of a passage in Ecclesiastes. Ecclesiastes 8:17 (KJV) "Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yea further; though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it."

27:37 "aminoacids don't hook together by themselves" This bit is the real kicker for me Despite my years of reading on this subject, I always had the impression that things will hook up if they bump into each other, and the design arguments mostly revolve around the improbability of such hook-ups happening in the necessary sequence. The idea that nucleotides have to be *forced* to hook up is quite an eye opener. It's like spending hours debating whether or not pigs can fly based on weight and aerodynamics and such, and then somebody saying "You know pigs don't have wings, right?"
@@jarrod752 Chemicals don't all respond to a similar input. Some chemicals bond under different temperatures, and you would need extreme contrasts to get the right sequence of events to build all the necessary molecules, and then to come together in one place, to order in the correct sequence without a single error (we're talking about many thousands of molecules that would just as willingly bond to the wrong thing at the wrong time indiscriminately or polymerize. And even IF you get some parts to form correctly through either human intervention or currently unknown natural processes, the cell doesn't just form complex information in DNA or with carbohydrates naturally in any sense. DNA, left to natural law would be a consistent order like ABAB or ABCABC. But no, DNA is A-symmetrical data and the problem of carbohydrates which have over a trillion ways to form indiscriminately, if one carbohydrate is wrong, the cell dies. Don't forget that the first hypothetical proto-cell has no enzymes to check itself for correct formation because it has never formed before. The cell would need to be completely formed and have all the information established before systems could be made to check and verify said information in the cell.

@@jarrod752 are you a synthetic chemist? Do you think you know more about these chemical reactions than Dr Tour? You are wrong. These chemicals do not "combine rather easily." Actually they break down easily and are difficult to get to join together. The peptide bond joining 2 amino acids is a reversible reaction, and the reaction tends to break down thousands to millions of times faster than they form. The only way these bonds form in living cells is because of very complex enzymes.

Mind blowing, truthfully courageous and urgently needed in a world that has lost a sense of direction because of misleading information. A” thank you” falls extremely short of what Dr. James Tour truly deserves but his love of truth is what really satisfies him.
What a blessing you are, brother James! We're still scratching our heads, trying to figure out the things that can be measured and weighed in our physical environment. Do we dare to delve into the supernatural, where our Father abides, the unseen realm? What an Awesome Father we have... "Our Father, Who art is heaven."
@endtimeawakening5557 "What a blessing you are, brother James! We're still scratching our heads, trying to figure out the things that can be measured and weighed in our physical environment. Do we dare to delve into the supernatural, where our Father abides, the unseen realm? What an Awesome Father we have... "Our Father, Who art is heaven." And there is the major flaw in this video - Tour repeated time and again "we don't know" and yet there you are with "we DO know" There is NO place in science for religion EXCEPT where you have a real need to reinforce your own belief. I can appreciate all Tour's views without the need to insist on a nebulous and unproven deity; I do not have the hubris to think that if there existed an incomprehensible "entity" I would know what its plan and thoughts are!
Dawkins would never dare debate another real scientist just see the train wreck that was the Dawkins vs. Dennis Nobel debate on IAI. The best part is Prof. Nobel wasn't even trying to debate, just stating scientific fact from his experiments.
As a Muslim, I totally agree Mr Tour. Our scientists are the same opinion. Unfortunately some pseudo scientists are just copy and don't make any effort to understand. But not to forget that there are many professors on university are forced to not deny the evolution theory otherwise they will dismissed. So the best thing to do is to show them how wrong they are.
With an undergraduate degree in biochemistry and as a board certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon (retired) I thought I could imagine the complexity of molecular biology and “life”. Wrong, Tome shows it is unimaginable. Confirms the bumper sticker that warns not to believe everything we think.
I would love for James tour to debate Bill Nye on stage! Most of the bill nyes debates seems to favor him because the opponent doesn’t have as much knowledge on the matter as James tour .
Bill Nye debated Ken Ham after touring the Ark Encounter. Nye just complained and bitched the whole time, he hated it.😂 It's always the same: the creationists bring real science, the atheists bring mockery, denial, and strawman arguments.
An old joke; a group of scientists presented themselves before the creator of the universe, stating we can now create life! G-D responded, demonstrate please. the group then proceeded to prepare their materials. G-D said wait get your own dirt!
What's worse is that this is not shown in the school! Both sides need to be shown for healthy thinking but only one side is shown, which is the darwinism.
Some times I've been despondent. Strong in faith but wondering where was the joy, was there any in me ? Just poured out of me ! Smiled, belly laughed, wondered in awe. Best witnessing I ever heard.
Really great talk!! I think Google is messing with my thumbs-up rating, though. I keep thumbing up, but when I scroll down, my rating is removed. So I'll rate here. 👍👍👍👍👍
Even if all the proteins, lipids, connective tissues etc. necessary to form a simple cell were some how assembled, in the correct order...... you still need to make it live. Otherwise you only have a collection of organic components, without life. Forming a living cell is impossible without God !!! Excellent lecture 👍
After listening professor Tour, I'm once again reading my textbook ' Moleculair biology of the cell' . The idea that all this complexity could be a product of blind and unguided processes make me laugh at every page.
Excellent talk! I wish more ordinary folk watch these types of talks and discussed the contents with their children, especially those approaching college age. Nothing beats informed and enquiring minds challenging professors.
Best talk and easiest to understand on this subject. I've known it's impossible to make it work but this guy explains it where anyone with a mind can easily understand why molecules to man can't ever work. The simple cell isn't simple at all but an extremely well engineered manufacturing plant. This presentation needs to be the first presentation in any and every biology class from high school to doctorate degrees in every field.
I never thought I would ever hear of such clear concise not to mention humorous Explanation of the narcissism and flagrant lies whether intentional or not within the scientific community. This was absolutely brilliant. Praise the Lord! This should be show to every woman considering an abortion proving just how majestic and precious life really is before they decide to callously end that life for such selfish reasons.
He's the most cited scientist on earth by other sciences, pertaining to the subjects he's lecturing on. If you search google scholar, which ranks the most cited people in every field of study in the history of science, he is ahead of people like Stephen Hawking.
19:30 - The system checking to see if something is correct is always more complex than the system it's checking... That's actually a really good point...
Dr. Tour is brilliant, funny and absolutely destroys the materialist worldview in this talk. A must-see for any serious apologetics student. This video is great to use if you have a discussion/study group with unbelievers as well.
Back in college, my biochemistry professor was explaining abiogenesis and stated "early amino acids recognized that it was beneficial for them to congregate..." Sheesh. ..
When I started to learn Biology in my first year of secondary education. We started with the cell and to me I was convinced that it was created by God .
Those people spreading fallacy are satisfied with just continuing to exist within a Matrix like world. Truth and real science breaks down this illusion.
Intelligent design is real. It's real science. Unfortunately, many believers of intelligent design aren't articulate. The believers of evolution are often articulate, but what they have is just a fairlytale and they are easily debunked. We need more people like Tour.
Victoria, this man may be a nice person or good in his field, but he projects his expertise where he has none. There are some great teachers at Rice University, Tour isn't one of them, because he can't keep his faith out of the lab. He leads evidence to conclusions instead of looking where the evidence leads. Yes, the opposite of good science. This video is a great example of "confident speech means nothing". He believes abiogenesis is under some obligation to function under his narrow understanding. Well, it isn't and creationists still lap it up -.- You can be a christian who is also a scientist, there are many doing great work, but if you meet a professed "christian scientist", what you get is a preacher fucking with science in God's name, it's obscene.
This is terrific! Thank you, James Tour and DiscoveryNews for putting it up. Makes so much sense and exposes the garbage some scientists want us to buy. I like his boldness and holding to truth. The last 5 minutes alone are worth the video.
I have a degree in chemistry as well but this guy is on a whole different level and a terrific chemist. He is the kind of guy, because of his intelligence, always ruined the chance of a “curve” for the rest of us. I envy his enthusiasm and professional ethic. As far as chemistry, you can take what he is saying to the bank. I’m impressed by his knowledge of the topic.
I love Dr. Tour's passion and level of knowledge. It takes someone like him, a brilliant scientist, to confront the agnostic know-it-alls in the science world with what the rest of us may have suspected but were afraid to articulate, that life cannot spontaneously order or design itself without having someone or something that is already alive as a source for that life and design.
Spellbinding, awe inspiring, mind blowing. I worked with epigeneticists and systems biologists who were extremely deep in the reactome, and they agreed that this doesn't happen by chance! Oh and Richard Dawkins is delusional.
Ive been athiest for decades, used to be a memeber of an athiest group until they got me kicked out. I was banned. These explains the small world that proves God. I explain the infinite world to prove God. Thanks lord, my knowledge saved me from bigotry of athiesm. Mine is not just a faith, its a diction if our reality. I am thankful to hear this guy. This broaden my knowledge
Dr. Tour has the personality animations and a unique passion that is lacking in other voices in the intelligent design communities. He picks up where Dr. David Berlinski leaves us.
This guy is an awesome speaker. He uses humor to make certain points and he explains things in a way that a layperson can understand it. I can listen to him speak for hours and never get bored
Dawkings and Krauss always have a way to redirect their ignorance and lack of capacity to explain the origin of life to the "excitement" of learning from nature. To them "that's science". They will argue they are not afraid of not know how this happened because they are confident (have faith) they will figure it out. Sigh!
Hahah!! Come on in mr richard dawkins and tell this gentleman he is wrong. No do not think u would want to face him in a debate, he will literally metophorically tear u apart. You like to debate with people who lack knowledge. Much like when the british fought zuluz with their spears. Cheers from down under ...
Dr. Tour takes the right approach. You don't start with Evolution, you start with how did life come from non-life. This stops the Humanist scientific establishment dead in their tracks.
@ 33;20 - 33:25 _"There is _*_much more information_*_ stored in carbohydrate assembly than in DNA,"_ Some "scientists" must hate that.This would mean that DNA is not the final frontier, it never was... @ 37:27 _"Critical for life is the origin of information. _*_Information is primary_*_ matter is secondary."_ ...so much for the acolytes of materialism.

Usually in labs atoms need extreme conditions to make a simple change....meanwhile my body cells are quitely operation millions of complex reactions below 37°C and under normal atmospheric pressure.... Yes. Another God fearing scientist to make all of us proud. We are so proud of you.

You can keep trying to make all the excuses you want and use fancy big words but all you’ll be showing people is nothing more than the condition of your own heart, a desire to rebel against a Holy Eternal God and a desire to disbelieve regardless of what reasoning there is to try and reason with you.
@@Belmondo_RHif you’re so smart you should talk to Dr. James Tour yourself in person and ask him if you can have some sort of debate on all of this. Then we’ll see how things turn out.
Mind blowing, truthfully courageous and urgently needed in a world that has lost a sense of direction because of misleading information. A” thank you” falls extremely short of what Dr. James Tour truly deserves but his love of truth is what really satisfies him.
"Some stages in this process are still not well understood" Yet, it is taught as fact!
Some stages? Or pretty much all of it?
"Molecules have no brain, they don't know where they're going!" ....love this guy......
What he's saying is exactly what I argued with my college instructor about...
What a blessing you are, brother James! We're still scratching our heads, trying to figure out the things that can be measured and weighed in our physical environment. Do we dare to delve into the supernatural, where our Father abides, the unseen realm? What an Awesome Father we have... "Our Father, Who art is heaven."
@endtimeawakening5557 "What a blessing you are, brother James! We're still scratching our heads, trying to figure out the things that can be measured and weighed in our physical environment. Do we dare to delve into the supernatural, where our Father abides, the unseen realm? What an Awesome Father we have... "Our Father, Who art is heaven." And there is the major flaw in this video - Tour repeated time and again "we don't know" and yet there you are with "we DO know" There is NO place in science for religion EXCEPT where you have a real need to reinforce your own belief. I can appreciate all Tour's views without the need to insist on a nebulous and unproven deity; I do not have the hubris to think that if there existed an incomprehensible "entity" I would know what its plan and thoughts are!
I would love to see Tour debate the self obsessed ego maniac that is called Richard Dawkins . Dawkins would be like a lamb to the slaughter
not really, this talk doesnt hold up, is clearly focused for believers who doesn't care about facts.
Dawkins would never dare debate another real scientist just see the train wreck that was the Dawkins vs. Dennis Nobel debate on IAI.
The best part is Prof. Nobel wasn't even trying to debate, just stating scientific fact from his experiments.
Real scientist talking actual science. I'm so happy I'm literally getting misty.. .
This is still one of my favorite lectures. Would love to see it replayed in churches everywhere.
One of my top 10 favorite Christian scientists ever!
Any thumbs down out there just proves that you don’t understand what he’s saying.
As a Muslim, I totally agree Mr Tour. Our scientists are the same opinion. Unfortunately some pseudo scientists are just copy and don't make any effort to understand. But not to forget that there are many professors on university are forced to not deny the evolution theory otherwise they will dismissed. So the best thing to do is to show them how wrong they are.
It is important to understand the complex process of life to lead us to a more logical belief in God.
How can you not love this guy. Absolute kryptonite to the likes of Dawkins and Krauss.
With an undergraduate degree in biochemistry and as a board certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon (retired) I thought I could imagine the complexity of molecular biology and “life”. Wrong, Tome shows it is unimaginable. Confirms the bumper sticker that warns not to believe everything we think.
People should share this on all social media help this go viral‼️
I would love for James tour to debate Bill Nye on stage! Most of the bill nyes debates seems to favor him because the opponent doesn’t have as much knowledge on the matter as James tour .
That would be like taking a sledgehammer to a flea.
Bill Nye debated Ken Ham after touring the Ark Encounter. Nye just complained and bitched the whole time, he hated it.😂 It's always the same: the creationists bring real science, the atheists bring mockery, denial, and strawman arguments.
An old joke; a group of scientists presented themselves before the creator of the universe, stating we can now create life!
G-D responded, demonstrate please. the group then proceeded to prepare their materials.
G-D said wait get your own dirt!
What's worse is that this is not shown in the school! Both sides need to be shown for healthy thinking but only one side is shown, which is the darwinism.
They want to maintain the illusion of control. The real question is "why do they want so desperately for there not to be a God".
Some times I've been despondent. Strong in faith but wondering where was the joy, was there any in me ? Just poured out of me ! Smiled, belly laughed, wondered in awe. Best witnessing I ever heard.
Really great talk!! I think Google is messing with my thumbs-up rating, though. I keep thumbing up, but when I scroll down, my rating is removed. So I'll rate here. 👍👍👍👍👍
Even if all the proteins, lipids, connective tissues etc. necessary to form a simple cell were some how assembled, in the correct order...... you still need to make it live. Otherwise you only have a collection of organic components, without life. Forming a living cell is impossible without God !!! Excellent lecture 👍
How did god do it?
"molecules don't care about life...you have to have non-regular patterns in order to have complexity for living systems"
After listening professor Tour, I'm once again reading my textbook ' Moleculair biology of the cell' . The idea that all this complexity could be a product of blind and unguided processes make me laugh at every page.
Dr. Tour is a Beast. Well done.
James words are so true so strong and so powerful this wonderful scientist is a heavenly light in the darkness and a great blessing.
Excellent talk! I wish more ordinary folk watch these types of talks and discussed the contents with their children, especially those approaching college age. Nothing beats informed and enquiring minds challenging professors.
I'm only 5 minutes into this and he's blown my mind already.
Best talk and easiest to understand on this subject. I've known it's impossible to make it work but this guy explains it where anyone with a mind can easily understand why molecules to man can't ever work. The simple cell isn't simple at all but an extremely well engineered manufacturing plant.
This presentation needs to be the first presentation in any and every biology class from high school to doctorate degrees in every field.
You can see a HUGE change in his demeanor when he starts talking about the miracles in cells! It's evidently his real passion.
I never thought I would ever hear of such clear concise not to mention humorous Explanation of the narcissism and flagrant lies whether intentional or not within the scientific community. This was absolutely brilliant. Praise the Lord! This should be show to every woman considering an abortion proving just how majestic and precious life really is before they decide to callously end that life for such selfish reasons.
This man is a gem. May God bless him!
lool
Rarely see that kind of passion, enthusiasm, and that level of logical consistency all in one. Loved this talk!
I wonder how Richard Dawkins would reply to this.
People like Dawkins are in the privileged position of not having to care about actual science.
Never heard of Dr. Tour before. He is awesome.
He's the most cited scientist on earth by other sciences, pertaining to the subjects he's lecturing on. If you search google scholar, which ranks the most cited people in every field of study in the history of science, he is ahead of people like Stephen Hawking.
19:30 - The system checking to see if something is correct is always more complex than the system it's checking... That's actually a really good point...
Encryption systems say hi
This is the best thing I've seen in a very long time
Dr. Tour is brilliant, funny and absolutely destroys the materialist worldview in this talk. A must-see for any serious apologetics student. This video is great to use if you have a discussion/study group with unbelievers as well.
WOW! This was the best lecture I have ever seen. Truly amazing and mind blowing content. Thank you and God bless you and your family.
I think terrible, he's starting from a cell.....
Well done. This lecture should be required in high school.
This talk must be studied in every Biology class.
One lady definitely enjoyed the talked and laghed louder than rest 😂😂. Great talk Doctor 👏👏
the first woman eva was the mother of oll living, so women definietly know what he is speaking for!
Finally some push back to the secular dogma being presented as science
Back in college, my biochemistry professor was explaining abiogenesis and stated "early amino acids recognized that it was beneficial for them to congregate..." Sheesh. ..
When I started to learn Biology in my first year of secondary education. We started with the cell and to me I was convinced that it was created by God .
Only God puts brilliance like this in the mix to confound the "wise". Thank you James Tour, and thank you God!
This is the most honest talk I have ever heard on chemical evolution. So good!!!
Just love the righteously defiant attitude and tone 😅 instant legend when I first heard him awhile ago ⚔️
Love his dry humor. He should do this more often, hes really good at it.
Humour*
Saddest part of this is after 1 year this have almost 600K views only
How come this didnt go beyond viral !!!
Because is a bias...
@@ivanortakovski3526 Seems you love grasping at fallacies!! People don't like the truth
@@ivanortakovski3526 If I ask how he's bias I can bet anything that you have nothing to talk about
And most people are ignorant and quite stupid
Those people spreading fallacy are satisfied with just continuing to exist within a Matrix like world.
Truth and real science breaks down this illusion.
I'd like to see ol' Nye debate Tour. I think he'd be shredded.
Worth every minute invested in watching this.
Intelligent design is real. It's real science. Unfortunately, many believers of intelligent design aren't articulate. The believers of evolution are often articulate, but what they have is just a fairlytale and they are easily debunked. We need more people like Tour.
I am only eleven and this is veeeeeeeeerrrrry interesting
Stick with it. Everything in the world is going to try to get you not to believe this man.
Have a watch party with your friends 🎉
❤
Yeah but if you agree with Tour you get an F in science class.
Victoria, this man may be a nice person or good in his field, but he projects his expertise where he has none. There are some great teachers at Rice University, Tour isn't one of them, because he can't keep his faith out of the lab. He leads evidence to conclusions instead of looking where the evidence leads. Yes, the opposite of good science.
This video is a great example of "confident speech means nothing".
He believes abiogenesis is under some obligation to function under his narrow understanding. Well, it isn't and creationists still lap it up -.-
You can be a christian who is also a scientist, there are many doing great work, but if you meet a professed "christian scientist", what you get is a preacher fucking with science in God's name, it's obscene.
36:44 - proto-turkeys - absolutely hilarious! I love this guy's humor and passion!
The proto-turkey metaphor is an understatement of the crazy theories being spread around.
I actually saw a post from an atheist who took this seriously as if Dr. Tour was. I told him to look up the term 'facetious.'
45:35 - "He's lying to you!" 😂
As a Christian and a conservation biologist, I loved this!
James "10^79 billion. That's a big big number." Tour
"Molecules don't care about life." --- my favorite quote
The universe does not either.
@@VirtuelleWeltenMitKhan But you're in it💀
This is terrific! Thank you, James Tour and DiscoveryNews for putting it up. Makes so much sense and exposes the garbage some scientists want us to buy. I like his boldness and holding to truth. The last 5 minutes alone are worth the video.
As a Christian I just have to say thanks. Amazing lecture. Praise to God.
I have a degree in chemistry as well but this guy is on a whole different level and a terrific chemist. He is the kind of guy, because of his intelligence, always ruined the chance of a “curve” for the rest of us. I envy his enthusiasm and professional ethic.
As far as chemistry, you can take what he is saying to the bank. I’m impressed by his knowledge of the topic.
Ten to the 79 billion. Expecting that to occur takes some serious faith right there. More than I could ever mount. I will stick with God.
I love Dr. Tour's passion and level of knowledge. It takes someone like him, a brilliant scientist, to confront the agnostic know-it-alls in the science world with what the rest of us may have suspected but were afraid to articulate, that life cannot spontaneously order or design itself without having someone or something that is already alive as a source for that life and design.
Thank you Dr. Tour, for opening my eyes. I always believe the scientists. Now I'll be more skeptical.
Love u Dr. Tour u made faith for me rational and stronge❤
Spellbinding, awe inspiring, mind blowing. I worked with epigeneticists and systems biologists who were extremely deep in the reactome, and they agreed that this doesn't happen by chance! Oh and Richard Dawkins is delusional.
Dawkins is into the aliens thing. That really explains a lot, doesn't it? SMH
oh man. the cell might be more complicaded than a large city
I'd say it's much much more complicated than a large city. A large city can't copy itself in a 24h period.
It doesn't pollute the earth.
This guy is a hero. I wish everyone who understood science on the side of truth would speak boldly as he does.
Thank you for having the courage to do this!!!
Ive been athiest for decades, used to be a memeber of an athiest group until they got me kicked out. I was banned.
These explains the small world that proves God. I explain the infinite world to prove God.
Thanks lord, my knowledge saved me from bigotry of athiesm. Mine is not just a faith, its a diction if our reality.
I am thankful to hear this guy. This broaden my knowledge
Dr. Tour has the personality animations and a unique passion that is lacking in other voices in the intelligent design communities. He picks up where Dr. David Berlinski leaves us.
One of the most interesting and engaging speakers and topics I've ever heard.
This guy is an awesome speaker. He uses humor to make certain points and he explains things in a way that a layperson can understand it. I can listen to him speak for hours and never get bored
A great and responsible scientist and believer. Astonishing contents: 34:00, 44:10, 54:50
Seriously guys I want to see Dawkins&Krauss facial expressions right now !
This guy rocks !
They would never debate someone like Tour. They don’t want that look on their face so they keep their clown faces on. He does rock!
They would be laughing at him
Dawkings and Krauss always have a way to redirect their ignorance and lack of capacity to explain the origin of life to the "excitement" of learning from nature. To them "that's science". They will argue they are not afraid of not know how this happened because they are confident (have faith) they will figure it out. Sigh!
It looks like this... :|
(Unimpressed)
@@Josssdj85and in the same breath Dawkins and Krauss mock Christian’s for having faith in a Eternal Almighty God. Ironic isn’t it?😂😂
Hahah!! Come on in mr richard dawkins and tell this gentleman he is wrong. No do not think u would want to face him in a debate, he will literally metophorically tear u apart. You like to debate with people who lack knowledge. Much like when the british fought zuluz with their spears. Cheers from down under ...
The atheists are losing ground...
Dr. Tour takes the right approach. You don't start with Evolution, you start with how did life come from non-life. This stops the Humanist scientific establishment dead in their tracks.
Macro-Evolution is another similar lie so is the selfish gene.
Dennis Nobel does a great job of dissecting Dawkins in the IAI debate.
@ 33;20 - 33:25 _"There is _*_much more information_*_ stored in carbohydrate assembly than in DNA,"_
Some "scientists" must hate that.This would mean that DNA is not the final frontier, it never was...
@ 37:27 _"Critical for life is the origin of information. _*_Information is primary_*_ matter is secondary."_
...so much for the acolytes of materialism. They must somehow prove that information is made up of matter...
That was very enlightening, thank you Dr. Tour. We need more courageous scientists willing to speak truth to power.
damn, i can spend my entire life just listening to Dr. Tour.❤
Usually in labs atoms need extreme conditions to make a simple change....meanwhile my body cells are quitely operation millions of complex reactions below 37°C and under normal atmospheric pressure....
Yes. Another God fearing scientist to make all of us proud. We are so proud of you.
Does he ever do debates? I can’t imagine anyone wanting to take him on in a debate.
One of the best talks I have heard in a long time.
