You need to learn more about where nuclear research is going. It truly is a potential source of unlimited clean energy in the near future. Your issues with nuclear power are really issues with the reactor technologies used by governments who want nuclear weapons. Utilizing biology to generate power is amazing and I fully support continuing research, but atomic and particle science is the foundation of all physical matter and energy.

Man, if you could have your genome done in the spot at the doctor's office, they would be able to foresee so man things about your health. That's just incredible.
i just asked a girl "how long does it take for the earth to orbit around the sun?" . she doesn't know the answer. she said "i don't know.. i forgot. i dont study anymore"
Everyone seems to be asking about what he did. Dr. Venter's lab started with 4 bottles of chemicals (A T G C) and a machine to build a custom DNA chain from scratch. They took a cell (which is just a bunch of little dead machines without the DNA) took out its DNA and inserted this man-made DNA. The cell came to life and was now a man-made species. The entire instructions for how the cell was to behave was made by men with 4 chemicals in bottles in a lab. It is synthetic life.
@mobcat40 What goes on in laboratories like what Craig venter and jack szostak do, Is controlled experiments in controlled conditions and would never occur on there primordial earth!!
They also dont create anything!!!!, they borrow and copy pre existing INFORMATION to get there experiments Going!!!! rearranging DNA and genomes, is not creating life!
LOL! He's saying he created life from scratch while he used a living cell to do that! Man will NEVER be able to create life. The Quran challenges man to create a single fly.
@lotr450...He never said anything about pre-existing life... As I understood, those machine will eventually create atoms out of nothing!! Why bring the Quran into this?
@freedomland11 Didn't you see the video. He claimed to have started life from scratch where he actually used a living bacterial cell to inject the DNA and replicate. Is that what you call starting life from scratch? Man will never EVER create life out of nothing and the Quran challenges man to create a single bee from scratch.
@lotr450.....Hmmm, where what part was it that he mentions that?? So, I can have clarity :)... but to also reply on your comment, that isn't from scratch..but why would you say God created life, if human being haven't solved it yet? and why do you think we can never solve that answer?... We never dreamed to be where we are now, imagine 100 years from now..Science will mos def improve!!
Please stop referring to a book about a mass murdering warlord and open your mind to science. We're still far away from creating a bee, but we're also rapidly advancing.
And don't be such a pessimist, there is huge untapped potential in this line of research that can assist mankind in surviving the changes to our environment, and perhaps ultimately conquering other planets to inhabit.
@khatack What an idiot. The Quran is not about mass murder. You're fucking ignorant if you think so.
And I'm not a pessimist. I'm optimistic for science but I'm just saying the facts the man will NEVER create a bee despite the momentous advances in science and technology.
And maybe you should study the history of Islam a little closer. There may be something about Mohammad that you may not be aware of, such as his nine year old wife and his tendency to murder "infidels".
@khatack I know the history of Islam more than you do. It was common for a man to marry a young woman. It wasn't until later that it was considered a "taboo".
Tendency to murder infidels? Are you kidding!? The Prophet was very merciful and he only fought "infidels" when they were attacking him first. I suggest you rectify your understanding of the history of Islam.
A nine year old girl is not a "young woman", a nine year old girl is a small child. Pedophilia may have been more acceptable in the culture your prophet lived in, but there is a reason it isn't acceptable today. Except apparently in the Islamic world where this kind of thing still happens.
But enough of that, I'm sure you can ponder the moral questions on your own, but you still didn't give me the evidence to back up your claim about artificial life.
He created" the first cell with a synthetic genome". As a physics major I'm pretty clueless what this means. Can any knowledgeable person please explain? :)
@sadathusain can be googled but i guess it means he completely made all the dna himself , (well yeh articles on it say they did and they even encoded a bunch of the amino acids/nucleotides wateva with specific sequences ie-their names, the alphabet etc..) i guess if completely true it (which i doubt it is and in my mind theres something more sinister to it, ie. deceiving the people that life can arise from mankinds hands as opposed to gods) it completely abolishes the thought that life
@sadathusain They killed a cell, extracted the DNA and then inserted some DNA they had created themselves into the dead cell. Voilá! Our cell revived. Lazarus stirs.
I like Charles Dawkins but dislike Craig Venter because he tried to impose copyrights on genetic information that makes us. It's like patenting the sun and charge anyone who uses it to produce vitamine D in their skin. Watson and Crick (co-discoverer of DNA structure) opposed it because knowledge of the natural world should be accessible to everyone of us. Craig Venter is an immoral man.
@260191894 Well, yeah if you take intp the account the government funded project was taking long and didn't want to try his method, thus causing him to leave and get funds from private corps (which can explain the copyrights, he has to play the game) that oked his shotgun method and did what it took the government years in a matter of months, yeah he's immoral. However, I do catch your point, knowledge shouldn't cost but there was a trade off made for quicker progress.
@mochopz Thats not even close to being true. Although the US spends almost 7 times as much on defense as the next country, China, US military expenditures account for less than half of the world's total reported spending. As for strength, China has almost twice the active military personnel and also has nuclear weapons. Our defense budget is bloated because we buy our equipment new at a premium and sell it to others cheap. The US isn't the unstoppable military juggernaut many people think it is.
Why do religious people still insist that Darwin had a deathbed conversion ??? WHY ???? why the hell do you care ??? Even if he did because of say.. senile madness.. THAT DOESN'T ELIMINATE the overwhelming evidence for EVOLUTION!!
bottom line - be Saved or burn in hell - its up to you; youre disgusted? its disgusting that satan has blinded the spiritual eyes of multiple millions like yourself.
Atheists think that scientists can create life, lol, please watch my video dear Christian brother: Craig Venter and Richard Dawkins Vs Mythical Characters: /watch?v=UYO9AuEhFwo
@helasmoh Craig Venter and his team took DNA from an organism, recreated it on a computer, and inserted it into a dead cell and it started self replicating. Not creating life (not to mention scientists who ran experiments where amino acids and RNA self assembled) but that is far more than what your god can do.
@ThatGuyOverThere428 Man can engineer molecules! It shows how it takes INTELLIGENCE in controlled laboratory conditions to mimic, plagiarize a cell's Design!! Scientists COPY a limited set of genetic sequences with synthesizing machines and Templates!! They dont create anything!!!!
Its all Man made Synthetic biology!!!! and it has nothing to do with the origin of life!!!! Wake up atheist MORONS!!
Great conversation! I think that it would be better if they just stood in one place so your attention didn't have to content with moving stimuli and such.
@62Elvis Yeah, I know my history. Ironically, there are even well researched and referenced Christian resources which deny your fabrication - christiananswers net being one of them.
At the end of the day however, I consider the whole deathbed conversion thing to work against you. If it takes vulnerability derived from a long illness and impending death to make one want to be "saved", it doesn't say much for the strength of your position
I wonder what Dawkins' opinion is on the first synthetic cell. Ironically it's the closest we've been to creating life meaning that Craig Venture is probably the closest thing to a theistic God.
I know this is sooo irrelevant to science but I had to comment LOL at the beginning roughly 1:01 the security guard comes out and says "you guys gotta go" Haha, did anyone else catch that? Anyway, I would love to debate but I can`t seem to stop laughing!!
@tnus03 Except he will be remembered as one of the most notorious freethinkers of our time.. He has produced amazing scientific and litterary work.. what have you done ??? nothing. right. Not everybody will be as POINTLESS as you, mate.
@eswolf84 yes but in the end he will be forgotten along with the whole human race. Time will consume us all and we will be as "Pointed" as the colony of ants i squish beneath my foot. The point is there is no point and no matter how much we fight against it that fact will never change. You could say dawkins is a champion of pointlessness in the sense that theism is the main if not the only challenger to pointlessness. We exist then we don't. Everything we do in that time is POINTLESS. mate.
@tnus03 I actually understand your point.. but this reminds me of a certain quote by Carl Sagan: "we make our world significant by the courage of our questions and the depth of our answers"
In such a magnificent cosmos if we want to have any importance at all we have to embrace our destiny with courage and objectivity. The existence of the visionaries who have placed us where we are: In a world now full of technology, was never pointless. MATE.
If God created the universe how did he do it before he exsisted huh
Oh if adam & eve two white people were the first two people on earth how do we have blacks asians mexicans and so on oh and why aren't we all inbreds huh adam were the only people on earth they fuck eve shoots out some kids those kids fuck each other and so on why aren't we all inbreds i'll tell you why cause God & all that crap about him creating the earth is fucking bullshit
I'd bet it's even worse in Brazil.That's why maybe good business men take their labs and institutions further compared to those financed by the government.
@charmander4533 listen, you can always find a comfort in the truth. Talking snake, killing a goat, while at killing make sure you get the infidel as well... Cut off limbs to a stealer and make sure your wife wears a hijab... after that it's all good.... Peace be upon you.
@deriik2020 that's not true, you commented on my comment, I replied to you knowingly that I will get gibberish for answers, white noise, a dial tone....
@49fiori U were causing disruption with a guy well before I came here. You claimed what you were saying BEFORE I got here to some other guy was causing disruption only b/c he has a slow mind. So this means you were picking on him despite knowing he had a small mind. Surprised such a big mind couldn't follow that logic guess it musta been too disruptive for your small mind huh
@deriik2020 Charmander4533 wishes to be smart enough to participate in this, me too! I agree with him. To participate in scientific research of such caliber like Dr. Craig Venter enjoys it takes a lot of hard work and a lot of studying. To make a point, a cynical one, which your slow mind didn't catch, I suggested to charmander4533 that it is easier to engage in the "truth of religion" which talks about killing a goat or an infidel, it is an easier escape for slow minded, such as yourself...
@49fiori you're also missing the point. I'm only saying you're talking like an ass. Speak plainly. nobody is giving you bonus points for being uppity. Your small mind can't comprehend such a simple point how sad.
@charmander4533 What goes on in laboratories like what Craig venter and jack szostak do, Is controlled experiments in controlled conditions and would never occur on there primordial earth!!
They also dont create anything!!!!, they borrow and copy pre existing INFORMATION to get there experiments Going!!!! rearranging DNA and genomes, is not creating life!
that is garbage that dawkins says @ 50 seconds in. it is a fact that scientists have skewed evidence or made dubious reports to be 'fact' whenever they had a pre-existing notion or bias. racial science in the 19th & even 20th century are full of examples of this
The work Venter is doing is utter rubish. As a naturalist and bio-geneticist I can tell you this is taking us light years away from naturalistic biology and giving the ID'rs & creastionists credence to their deranged thought.
Harun Yahway American Turkish Creationist scientist response:
The recent news about two scientists who have decided to work for synthesizing a new type of bacteria has attracted great attention in the media. J. Craig Venter, a well-known gene scientist and Hamilton O. Smith, a Nobel laureate, are behind the plan. What they are trying to do is:
to create a single-celled, partially man-made organism with the minimum number of genes necessary to sustain life. If the experiment works, the microscopic man-made cell will begin feeding and dividing to create a population of cells unlike any previously known to exist.
Some people are inclined to see this "creation of life" in the laboratory as an evidence for the theory of evolution. Nothing can be further than the truth. In fact, if these scientists, or others, manage to synthesize a life form, they will be confirming the basic argument for creation - the argument that life is only possible through intelligent design.
To realize this, one needs to recall what the two theories about origins, namely evolution and creation, mean:
1) The Darwinistic theory of evolution argues that life on Earth is the product of natural laws and blind chance. The theory denies the existence of any intelligent and guided process in the origin of life.
2) Creation argues that life on Earth is not the product of natural laws and blind chance - they don't have such power. A conscious creator must have designed life.
If there can be any experimental or observational evidence for evolution, this should be the emergence of life from non-living matted through a non-designed process. In other words, scientists should observe that, out of inanimate matter, a living organism should arise by itself. Such an observation has never been made and, in fact, the history of the 20th century science shows that this is literally impossible.
The gap between life and nonlife is so huge that it can only be filled with the presence of an intelligent designer. Like the fact that the gap between a piece of rock and a statue by Michelangelo can only be filled by intelligent act of sculpture - not by natural causes like rain, wind or earthquake.
So, what will happen when scientists - if they really can - synthesize a new microbe species by a meticulous work? The answer is obvious: They will confirm the intelligent design theory by experimentally showing that life can come about only through very specified and complex information.
In fact, what Craig Venter and Hamilton Smith are trying to do is much simpler than what evolution requires to have happened by chance. They are not trying to build proteins from amino acids or genes from nucleic acids; they will simply use the pre-existing proteins and genes of a living cell.
They are not starting from the building blocks that can be found in nature; but they are starting from the already built complex macromolecules that could never have been synthesized from those building blocks through natural processes. In others words, they are not trying to build a house from bricks; they are just trying to make a little change in the structure of an already existing house. An MSNBC report reads:
IN A NUTSHELL, what Venter and Smith propose to do is create a very simple microbe. Some viruses have only 400 or 500 genes. Venter and Smith are going to remove the genes from one such tiny bug, synthesize a new set of genes, drop them into the bug and see if the new instructions will bring the microbe to life
Even this easy job - when compared to the origin of life itself - requires a great deal of information and design. This project is based on the scientific information which modern science accumulated throughout the past centuries, plus the advanced level of technology that we
have reached. Despite these, it is still such a complex job that the project is funded with a $3 million, and three-year grant from the Energy Department.
Thus the search for artificial life, like other scientific developments of our day, confirm the fact that life on Earth is not the product of blind natural causes. All life, including ourselves, is the artifact of the Creator, who has the power and wisdom to create everything that exists.
Isnt it FUNNY that this man was given 3 million dollars to fund to create new LIFE? with the support of intelligence? yet Atheists say: No intelligence is required for the creation of this universe and everything in it...lol thats includes the first living cell..

I like Charles Dawkins but dislike Craig Venter because he tried to impose copyrights on genetic information that makes us. It's like patenting the sun and charge anyone who uses it to produce vitamine D in their skin. Watson and Crick (co-discoverer of DNA structure) opposed it because knowledge of the natural world should be accessible to everyone of us. Craig Venter is an immoral man.

@260191894 Well, yeah if you take intp the account the government funded project was taking long and didn't want to try his method, thus causing him to leave and get funds from private corps (which can explain the copyrights, he has to play the game) that oked his shotgun method and did what it took the government years in a matter of months, yeah he's immoral. However, I do catch your point, knowledge shouldn't cost but there was a trade off made for quicker progress.

@mochopz Thats not even close to being true. Although the US spends almost 7 times as much on defense as the next country, China, US military expenditures account for less than half of the world's total reported spending. As for strength, China has almost twice the active military personnel and also has nuclear weapons. Our defense budget is bloated because we buy our equipment new at a premium and sell it to others cheap. The US isn't the unstoppable military juggernaut many people think it is.

Harun Yahway American Turkish Creationist scientist response:
The recent news about two scientists who have decided to work for synthesizing a new type of bacteria has attracted great attention in the media. J. Craig Venter, a well-known gene scientist and Hamilton O. Smith, a Nobel laureate, are behind the plan. What they are trying to do is:
pamuk7 1 year ago
to create a single-celled, partially man-made organism with the minimum number of genes necessary to sustain life. If the experiment works, the microscopic man-made cell will begin feeding and dividing to create a population of cells unlike any previously known to exist.
pamuk7 1 year ago
Some people are inclined to see this "creation of life" in the laboratory as an evidence for the theory of evolution. Nothing can be further than the truth. In fact, if these scientists, or others, manage to synthesize a life form, they will be confirming the basic argument for creation - the argument that life is only possible through intelligent design.
To realize this, one needs to recall what the two theories about origins, namely evolution and creation, mean:
pamuk7 1 year ago
1) The Darwinistic theory of evolution argues that life on Earth is the product of natural laws and blind chance. The theory denies the existence of any intelligent and guided process in the origin of life.
2) Creation argues that life on Earth is not the product of natural laws and blind chance - they don't have such power. A conscious creator must have designed life.
pamuk7 1 year ago
If there can be any experimental or observational evidence for evolution, this should be the emergence of life from non-living matted through a non-designed process. In other words, scientists should observe that, out of inanimate matter, a living organism should arise by itself. Such an observation has never been made and, in fact, the history of the 20th century science shows that this is literally impossible.
pamuk7 1 year ago
The gap between life and nonlife is so huge that it can only be filled with the presence of an intelligent designer. Like the fact that the gap between a piece of rock and a statue by Michelangelo can only be filled by intelligent act of sculpture - not by natural causes like rain, wind or earthquake.
pamuk7 1 year ago
So, what will happen when scientists - if they really can - synthesize a new microbe species by a meticulous work? The answer is obvious: They will confirm the intelligent design theory by experimentally showing that life can come about only through very specified and complex information.
pamuk7 1 year ago
In fact, what Craig Venter and Hamilton Smith are trying to do is much simpler than what evolution requires to have happened by chance. They are not trying to build proteins from amino acids or genes from nucleic acids; they will simply use the pre-existing proteins and genes of a living cell.
pamuk7 1 year ago
They are not starting from the building blocks that can be found in nature; but they are starting from the already built complex macromolecules that could never have been synthesized from those building blocks through natural processes. In others words, they are not trying to build a house from bricks; they are just trying to make a little change in the structure of an already existing house. An MSNBC report reads:
pamuk7 1 year ago
IN A NUTSHELL, what Venter and Smith propose to do is create a very simple microbe. Some viruses have only 400 or 500 genes. Venter and Smith are going to remove the genes from one such tiny bug, synthesize a new set of genes, drop them into the bug and see if the new instructions will bring the microbe to life
pamuk7 1 year ago
Even this easy job - when compared to the origin of life itself - requires a great deal of information and design. This project is based on the scientific information which modern science accumulated throughout the past centuries, plus the advanced level of technology that we
pamuk7 1 year ago
have reached. Despite these, it is still such a complex job that the project is funded with a $3 million, and three-year grant from the Energy Department.
Thus the search for artificial life, like other scientific developments of our day, confirm the fact that life on Earth is not the product of blind natural causes. All life, including ourselves, is the artifact of the Creator, who has the power and wisdom to create everything that exists.
