Creationists Successfully Refutes Evolution

Name: Anonymous 2011-10-19 22:41

Who would have thought it, but it turns out that the creationists were right all along!

I don't know about you, but I'm starting to feel that it wasn't such a good idea to deny God, now that we've been found out. Do you think it's too late to break with Satan and repent? First of all, I'm going to stop being a homophile right now. No more lustful buggery for me.

Oh my, it's all true! I've been a scientist for all my life, but this data all checks out! This proves that we were 100% WRONG all along! I thought ignoring God was the path to salvation, but I now understand that I must abandon Satan as my lord and embrace the only true path!

"... but evolution in the sense that life came from non-life"

Stopped watching right there. Some day I'll find a creationist video where the theory of evolution is represented in a scientifically correct manner.

It's the very beginning of evolution, and it's not the flaw of the video.

Flaw 1: We (as a spieces) don't lose DNA over time. This is a claim that he pulled straight out of his ass and made it sound like he had his own team of scientists backing him up. It's bullshit, and if you bought it, then good for you.

Flaw 2: He doesn't believe in evolution because he cannot observe something that takes at least thousands of years, and this from somebody who believes in a god and a period of instant creation which he hasn't seen.
As if that wasn't enough, we actually HAVE observed instances of evolution these very recent years, like spieces changing behavior to adapt to our civilization. For example, our country to change our pedestrian crossing singal sounds because it made the birds evolve a different song that wouldn't be drowned out by the signals. Evolution can be observed.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._coli_long-term_evolution_experiment

Evolution has been observed and documented quite extensively. There are some things that can't be explained, but shit, we don't know exactly what happened millions of years ago, although we have a pretty good idea. We know where some species originated, where they traveled and how they bred. We can trace lineages by using the mitochondrial DNA, we know how today's species are connected and related to long extinct ones. We can observe evolution at work in certain organisms even now, and we observed the evolution of a bacteria, E. Coli, under experimental conditions, with every step carefully documented. And creationists refute the hard evidence, because it's just a "theory" and the bible is much more reliable. They ask for evidence, and when they get it, they just disregard it. Contrarily, you must never ask a creationist to prove the existence of god, or you're in a shitload of trouble.

It is like refuting the current atom theory, because the ancient greeks wrote books in which they claim otherwise.

Also, as the video states, it doesn't make sense that molecules would form together to make organisms, as everything in the cosmos tends to strive to chaos. But we can observe it, on a bigger scale: human organisation in families, tribes, nations, countries... Why do we organisations that help people, companies that specialize in producing food, healthcare, industry, police that keeps us safe?

Doesn't that remind anyone of the organisation on a cellular level? The different organelles, specialized in certain tasks? Production of energy-rich molecules, constructing and shaping proteins, decomposing potentialy dangerous molecules like peroxides? Enzymes and other signal molecules, with which different cells can communicate with eachother?

We did rise from small tribes to huge countries, that are reliant on certain organisations, just as a human body is reliant on the different organs to keep him alive and healthy.
We had the distinct advantage when we started using tools. We made our own weapons, when other creatures had to evolve long claws, strong muscles etc.

Is it more plausible that we started organising ourselves after being created from nothing by an all powerful being, or that we just continue a million year long cycle of organisation and specialisation?

Also, the mention that we don't have a single evidence of life being created from molecules, aka "nothing", as the video said, can be explained. In the beginning, there wasn't a shitload of higher creatures that could exterminate early organisms by will. There is a possibility that new life has been made, somewhere in the depths of the oceans, some unexplored regions, etc... And there is also the possibility that higher evolved life-forms (bacteria, viruses...) have simply consumed them before they could evolve. Hell, us humans have brought several different species to extinction, in order to secure our survival.

There's plenty of proof for people who want it, but there is no help for the ones that claim there is no proof, because it collides with their delusions of being "special", created by an almighty being with a certain purpose, not just a random occurence, a mutation.

The guy talks like an Indiana Jones narrative; not just fast but speeding, so as to not let people notice the gaping holes in the logic. Main difference is that Indiana Jones never claims to be more than entertainment. Fiction. It even says so on the disclaimer.

One classic fallacy of creationists, btw, is how they like to misrepresent evolution, strawman-style; "throw a hand grenade into a loose-type printing press, and then seriously expect to find a perfect print of the Encyclopedia Britannica on the ceiling from all the loose types sent flying around by the blast".  (Facepalm)


Are there any actual Creationists in here? If so, ever done mathematics? Like, percentage? More precisely, compound interest? If so, let's try this thought experiment:

You have a bank account with .1% monthly interest (with monthly payments). You put $1000 in it, then you don't touch it for ages, just track the growth.

You'll see that from month to month, it doesn't change much (remember, .1% interest). It's only in the very long run the change becomes even visible, much less sizeable. It does add up to respectable amounts, but it takes damnably many months.

Same with evolution. You need to track changes over thousands of generations to see tangible changes. And then there's the little things like the reasons for favouring specific mutations in the first place (which ones has an easier time finding food, getting laid, avoiding predators, etc).
All of this takes way too much time for someone with ADHD. Ooh, shiny bible.


Tl;dr:   Evolution does work, only slowly. Things take time. Just cos that particular little factoid doesn't get through the thick skull of people like that fast-talking clown there, doesn't make it any less true. Just makes him more dumb.

Name: Anon 2011-11-06 9:54

Yeah, he claims rational Christian scientists only use "observational science" that is science that they can test, repeat and use their five senses to observe.

Goodbye quantum mechanics, germ theory, general relativity and anything else not observable to and only the five senses.

Also, he constantly reiterates that life cannot arise from non-life. This whole this is a special pleading fallacy. because life is a short hand for a complex series of compounded chemical reactions.

He also says that the only proof scientists have of evolution is art. Same with the Bible.

Not only is he a fast talker but the animation is just as fast, confusing and distracting to the attention.

Actually, I can't be bothered to continue -- this is the same drivel I've heard over and over again.

I have no issue with whatever mythologised societal regulatory system individuals choose to participate in but they should know that this particular ~4000-year-old compendium of fables is not science. It is made up conjecture, anecdote and unverifiable claims. It cannot be a substitute for science. And it has never actually provided anything substantial to add to science.

Dude, the atom theory is COMPLETELY FAKE!
I was reading this old translated ancient Greek paper....

Anyway, I've heard and thought about this already, and have come to the conclusion that...

Sure non-life --> life doesn't make sense, so any explanation doesn't make sense either.
I don't really fucking care.
If I "go to hell" when I die, it's "where I belong" right christfags? So respect my choice, and I'll respect yours.
I don't want to talk much about it.
I'm not saying all religious people are retards, maybe a bit brainwashed, but a lot of them don't REALLY look into stuff, and the stupid ones tend to be the loudest.
Of course, i don't know a lot either, but at least i can admit it.

Actually non-life -> life makes perfect sense, it's just we're already at the -> life point, so having that event happening is impossible in many ways but the most fundamentally being that we don't fufill the non-life requirement, and that it's a process that takes several magnitudes more time than for how long history has been recorded.

Devil's advocate though -- humans have language and thinking skills, this would make it probable that humans "evolved" social ability as it helped him hunt.  Molecules lack any such abilities, and as they are not alive cannot benefit from working as a unit.  Even in our body, it's not as though the heart existed as a separate living being until it decided that it really wanted to work with a liver and two lungs.

Five simple rules for investing
As we have seen in recent times investment markets can change overnight. But there are some simple rules that investors have been using to help build long-term wealth for decades.
Diversify your investments. It's notoriously difficult to predict what's going to be the best performing asset class in any given year. Diversifying investments across asset classes allows you to benefit from each year's best performing asset classes and can also help you smooth the volatility of your returns.
Spend time in the market. One of the most powerful features of long-term investing is the ability to benefit from compound returns. By staying invested, as opposed to regularly entering and exiting the market, your investments have more time to grow and earn returns on your investment returns.
Stay calm and continue to make regular investments. Investing regularly is another way to avoid timing errors as it allows you to ‘average out’ the cost of your investments over time.
Monitor and review your investment strategy. Like most things in life it is a good idea to regularly review your financial plan to make sure it is still right for your current financial situation.
Seek professional financial advice. A financial adviser can help ensure your strategy meets your needs and even help you update it as your circumstances change. With a clearly defined strategy and goals you can have the confidence you need to withstand the current market.

Actually the best way to refute evolution is to assume/imply that aliens have visited the ruins of earth after humans have left it for whatever reason. One alien would dig up a unbroken dish and assume that it is the fossil of a ancient creature. A unbroken bowl would also be revealed the same way. They might even assume that the bowl is a evolved form of the dish! Then another alien would say "NOT SO FAST EVOLUTIONIST SCUM! This is the design of a single manufacturer that was willing to destroy his own planet to design this! Instead of learning a lesson from this, clearly we should revere this horrible beast and go extinct in a similar way!" Then of course, the question would be begged of whether or not there were competing companies who could have also developed these dishes and bowls. At this point, we realize that both evolution and creationism are silly and there is no reason to go into war over these stupid religious people. Seriously, get a life.

As a 'murican, I can confirm this gem has just won the internet and is doing it right. Just sayin', I know that feel, bro, and while that was a risky click, this post was a 9/10, would read again. I see what you did there and it feels good man. You're doing God's work, son. I laughed way harder than I should have at your list that seems legit and totally nailed it. You - I like you. You magnificent bastard; you, sir, are so brave, a gentleman and a scholar, and seeing how you are a redditor for 4 years, this checks out, so I'll allow it. I regret that I only have one upvote to give for this cool story, bro. CTRL+F "about tree fiddy" was not disappointed. Wait, why do I have you tagged as "NOPE NOPE NOPE"? Nice try, you monster. What did I just read? Dafuq? I read that as "YOU HAD ONE JOB". I can't fap to this. No true scotsman could see that this relevant XKCD was bad, and you should feel bad. You must be new to reddit, so I'll see your cakeday and raise you a karma train. One does not simply rustle my jimmies, not even once. This stahp gave me cancer for science, so that's enough internet for me today. OP is a fag, 2/10, would not bang. What is this I don't even know how is this wtf? Circlejerk must be leaking. This will get buried but brace yourselves, some men want to watch the world burn right in the feels. When you see it, they'll KILL IT WITH FIRE! But this has nothing to do with atheism. Lawyer up, delete facebook, hit the gym, and SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY, said no one ever, so you wouldn't download a strawman. Damn onions, you scary like a BOSS. whoosh. Since rule #1 is 'be attractive', I'll just leave this here: This is my [f]irst post, be gentle. I have the weirdest boner right now, so I'll be in my bunk with dat ass. Oh, you! ...now KISS!!! I know you should never stick your dick in crazy, but DM;HS. ...this kills the redditor. OP will surely deliver. In the meantime, I'll show myself out. Directed by M. Night Shamallama Source

I guess their bible is a scientific textbook, whose contents have been proven over and over again in observable scientific experiments.

It's the only reason that a Christian would believe in God, right? Because he can prove to his 5 senses that God exists, and he's certainly not mistaking his conscience and internal sense of right and wrong for a divine being that created everything at once, and then immediately stopped interacting with it.
