3. i thought the dragon myth came from ppl finding fossils and letting their imaginations do the rest. but then i haven't seen a fossil find that looks anything like a mythical dragon. does anyone know where this myth came from. for example the mermaids came from men who have an overactive sex drive finding sea creatures attractive. lol
we evolve to become more accustomed to our environment and better suited to survival, which tends to mean less complex functions for our body. AKA, simpler
simpler.......hmmmm so in a few billion years will we have only 4 organs? Brain,Heart,Lungs and the guts so the guts instead would digest instead of the stomach and stuff?
4. microwaves cook from the inside out. I'm not saying they're wrong, but can somebody explain this to me? there was a woman who put her little dog into her oven for a few moments to warm it up after cold walks. it was fine afterwards. but when she put the dog in a microwave it exploded. can somebody explain please?
Stop paying attention to this guy corn, hes obviously a troll. Nobody with a "harvard education" can butcher evolution so badly, even if they don't personally believe in it.
Evolution's basic foundation is that we moved from simple to complex. This a bait and switch tactic. Using evolution as a broad term to mean any change while placing images of ape to man to invoke it's more specialized meaning of molecule to man evolution. The common creationist rebuttal to molecule to man evolution is that we observe the opposite of increased complexity and information but rather a degradation of information.
What they meant by 10% of the brain is the thinking part. The other parts of the brain have other jobs to do. You don't use the cerebral cortex to store memories just like you don't use the frontal lobe to control digestion.
The "10% of the brain" came out as a myth from fMRI scans, where only particular parts of the brain light up during the scan. The reason you see only particular parts of the brain light up is because there is a baseline of brain activity to which the parts of the brain that are more active at the moment are compared (these are the ones that light up on the scan). The rest of the brain remains "dark" for better contrast.
@Spetsop Woops my bad, I was thinking of the back part of the brain. The cerebellum.
But yeah I thought not all of the brain lights up all the time. It's used in sections/parts or something like that. Basically you don't use 100% of your brain for thoughts/memories etc.
Evolution can simplify life too. Many animals have gone backwards but it was advantageous in their environment. Tunicates and protists are two good examples.
@devlin0497 My problem is not with you, but with a society that allows people old enough to write properly to not understand the fundamental concepts of our universe. Didnt mean it as an insult to you, but as an expression of my dissapointment in the level of science education in the developed world.
@devlin0497 Basically gravity is just a force attracting matter to matter. The gravitational pull of the sun for an example is what keeps us in orbit around it, and our gravitational pull is keeping the moon in orbit. Floating is actually a pretty strange word in this particular instance. We think of gravity as a downward force, but the earth is equally pulled up by your mass as you are pulled down but the earth is barely effected because the force is so small compared to its mass.
@LamaPaj And dude, when you see an ignorant person don't just walk away and leave them be, educate them. Ignorance implies ability to learn, but was never given the chance. Make it your burden to explain to them so they learn and hopefully continue to learn on their own.
To me, devlin0497 could be anywhere from 10-16 years, ofcourse he's not gonna know this stuff, but don't be a harsh and insult him for it. "I" fear for the future
@devlin0497 anything with a mass has a gravitational force. More mass = more force. Greater distance from the mass = less force. The amount of force present may be so minimal that it has no perceivable affect, however, it is present. That joke people make about large people having their own gravitational pull? It's actually true, but so does an amoeba.
@devlin0497 I'm not sure if lamaPaj answered you but.....Astronauts keep floating because there isn't enough gravity to pull them with the same force that the Earth does to us right here. Nevertheless, the moon does have gravity(too fucking lazy to google howmuch), that is why in videos of Astronauts in the moon jump up but still come down, and not just float up into space. Do consider the Moon is 1/49 the size of the earth.
Learn the latter and retain it, so it can be basic info, like i did :)
@publiusdg Actually, astronauts don't float in space. They constantly fall toward the Earth.However they orbit fast enough around the Earth so that they "miss" the earth. And because every object falls at the same speed; it feels like astronauts are floating. Check free fall and orbit on wikipedia.
@saiyaman87 Don't evade the point. Yes, Believe a man up in the sky created everything you see around.. But do you HONESTLY think that one single atom with no complexity magically exploded for no reason what so ever creating everything around you? That sir.. IS FUCKING CRAZY. It has been dis proven over and over again.. Yet, They still teach it in school? No, I don't think they should teach creationism but why are we teaching lies and fake stuff? Its indoctrination.
@CornTasteGood 1. Evolution has nothing to do with the big bang, you're a fucking moron.
2. You're a fucking moron.
3. It hasn't been disproved at all, go and educate yourself and stop listening to other morons who don't know what the fuck they're talking about explain things.
@CornTasteGood You understand absolutely nothing about either of those theories, so I'm not going to waste any more of my time on your uneducated mind/trollness.
@abhiginimav ahaha u don't know anything about the physics of microwaves yet u are trying to correct me and then u say u love it when someone is easily proved wrong well the inside of your dish was cold because there was probably way more water and/or minerals on the outside of your dish than on the inside which is why the outside got hot while the inside stayed cold I love people fail as bad as you just did too go play with ur legos again son hahaha
number four is bullshit, the h2o particles in the food start to vibrate more and cause the particles around them to vibrate Y U DON'T KNOW AND STILL MAKE A LIST
@lonerguitarboy2 It isn't size that prevents H2O from being compressed, it's proximity. When H2O is a gas, it can be compressed easily. And, since the video talked about it, saying liquid water cannot be compressed is like saying there is no gravity in space. It's technically incorrect, but it's a really safe approximation under normal circumstances, since to decrease the volume of a quantity of liquid water by 1%, the pressure must be increased 22MPa.
@gamerassassin actually water molecules are too small to compress. when you try to put your hand in a glass of water the water goes around your hand to make more space. water moves when you try to compress it.
@thebeaterz16 the statement made in the video is legitimate, and doesn't contradict yours. It describes a general tendency, and counter examples exist, but given a uniform distribution of microwave absorbing molecules, energy will be absorbed at a greater rate on the exterior, since fewer microwaves reach the center, and the rate of temp increase on the exterior will be higher, thus the outside will cook first. It seems reasonable to say things in a microwave cook "from the outside in."
lol ive been reading the origen of species (the actual book bye chales darwin) and the last and i was like WAAAHT THEEEE !@@!@#!@#!#!@ how could you think that was true but just now i remembered something, a country, america. nuff said.
My high school biology teacher was a proponent of vulgar scientism. She told us, for instance, that every single detail of our lives – past, present and future – is predestined by biology, that even the colour of our future spouses' hair, skin and eyes is coded into our brains from birth. In her box-like universe there is no room for spontaneity or coincidence, and everything in nature is perfectly mechanical and predictable.
@xXPrOsNiPeRGXx It's not wrong. We are the result of 4.5billion years of evolution from single celled organisms to the beautifully complex creatures that we are now. Whether you like it or not, that's the truth, and no amount of sticking your fingers in your ears and going "LALALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU!" will change it.
@Incurafy hmm but how did that first organism get there in the first place? and what caused the events to create that organism? and what caused the events for the events to create the organism? now your thinking philosophy ;)
@ThePlatoon4 The origin of life is not what the theory of evolution deals with. Questioning how the first life formed (current theories about abiogenesis/etc are common, go look them up) has absolutely nothing to do with evolution which is a FACT.
That's not thinking philosophically at all, that's thinking backwards in our concept of time to try and find a beginning to that concept. Just because we don't know exactly what happened, doesn't mean a Sky Wizard created it all.
@ThePlatoon4 That's not true either. There are plenty of things that we already know that most would consider impossible to know. There are many things that we may never know, but it's irrational to say that we will definitely never know.
@ThePlatoon4 I'm sorry if I sounded condescending in my previous posts, I didn't mean to.
You're right to think that way, and I agree, there are some things that may never know, and there are definitely things that I can't even understand how we know already, but at the very least we can say, "We don't know them yet, but I can't fucking wait until we do!"
I like to think of it as though everything may be answerable, we just need the right amount of time.
@SkylarRuloff hey, don't you dare question the Flintstones Fact.
The funny thing is that about most of these apart from the human and dinosaur thing. Most were considered scientifically true. I hope people will be mistaken again and once again consider Pluto a Planet.
i don't mean to be rude to themermaidgirl247 but opinion is almost valueless in science. it either is or isn't.if your only taking the cerabelum as in the thinking part of the brain a lot of it is used up in all the scences. also if 90% of the brain was subconcious it would be the main thing that controls thinking and therefore can't be subconscious but conciousness. but more importantly i've never met a person who believes that dinosaurs and people lived in the same time period.only in the usa?
Who on earth actually thought that Dinosaurs co-existed with humans? Even the earliest of humans haven't been around that long. We'd have been wiped out by a meteorite or some other disaster that ended the dinosaur reign.
The 'Discovery' Institute has a permanent exhibition portraying exactly this, and they are lobbying HARD to indoctrinate children into believing this bullshit, AND they try to press it in to the curriculum of science-classes. This is what happens when ppl desperately try to convert a country to a theocracy, thus rendering them, by any standard, traitors of the US. It's beacuse they STRONGLY believe the earth is 6-10.000 years old, and true age of dinosaurs would destroy that notion
What on EARTH makes you think that an elephant is more complex than a cat? .... Just because it's bigger? The human brain is the most complex thing we know of, but it is SLIGHTLY smaller than an elephant ....
@Kaaxe Actually, people that say there is nothing good about God do precisely that, go through and pick parts that seem to prove their point. If you actually understand why God did what He did (which was punishing the unrighteous), then you will see that God is good. Whether taken as a whole or in part, as long as it's in context God's righteousness is easily seen.
@pokemonparty25 Don't know where you get your facts from, because no modern day scientist would say that. Scans of the human brain have shown that even when do very little, most of the brain is still being used to some degree. If you were only using 10 percent of your brain, you would have to have severe brain damage.
@pokemonparty25 Perhaps at any given partial moment, but i can assure you that if you remove any part of the brain you will be severly paralyzed in the subject which that part of the brain controlled. It shouldnt be physically possible to use 100% of the brain at the same time because you'd have to be dreaming, running, seeing, creating, speaking, memorizing etc. However you will probably use every part of your brain individually during a lifetime, hopefully ;)
@alex007152 Actually, only number three (dinosaurs and humans co-existed) is supported by religious people, and about number one concerning evolution, religious people believe in evolution within species, but not between different species.
@mistermaster7492 When you can have a mutation of 2 heads in a single generation or extra leg/fingers/wings/other appendages that don't impair the ability to reproduce, and this goes on for millions of years and many generations, how is it surprising lines of generations become so vastly different genetically and in phenotype that it becomes a different species/genus/family that can no longer reproduce with other lines of generations from the same ancestor?
@mistermaster7492 how did they co-exist with roughly 61-66 million years inbetween? did jesus have a time machine? I know a good load of absolute tools who think Darwinian natural selection was a conspiracy and the earth really is 6000 years old. Oh, and it occured to that fascist christian later it was actually 6000 to 25.000 years old not just 6000, that'd be ridiculous right? Just 6000 years, no no, remember, 6.000 to 25.000.
@mistermaster7492 ironically that same half-baked conspiracy nut gasps for antibiotics and vaccines when he gets ill, which we wouldn't have had if not for our understanding of evolution. That's the pinnacle of hypocrisy for ya lol
let's not be lumping in all religious people. #3 is supported by a fringe of the religious ppl. You have a lot of religious people that have no problems with science. Its just the people who take their religion too far, and truly think the world was like genesis. I dunno. a lot of people are starting to get this way. Normally though only kids believe their myths, once people get educated they make distinctions. But there are ppl who purpose miseducate their kids.
@WTFisMYname24 Actually, humans do use 100% of our brains, but we only use ~25% at any one time. For example, if we're frightened, we use specific parts of our brain, and if we're happy, we use different parts of our brain. Rarely are we ever frightened and happy at the same time.
@sleazybtd amm do some studies :) some of that is true, but there are parts of our brain that have not been yet analyzed .. and we got no clue what their for
The idiot is anyone who truly looks at evolution and can believe in the false teachings. If anyone is an idiot and mislead it is you. Check out the book of Romans with an open mind and hopefully you will see the truth. Maybe not though as some people so want to be deceived that their dark hearts will never come to the truth. I hope that is not the case for you.
so they think religion knows shit about science, in fact religion and science shouldn't be the same sentence and it's not an actual scientific misconception because no legitimate scientists would say that humans and dinosaurs coexisted only religious people do
The gravity obeys one formula which is G=something/r² so the farther away something is the smaller the gravitational pull is. I have the formula in my books but do not really care.
#3: New Scientist obviously thinks we are all very stupid and believe that The Flintstones was real and not just a cartoon. Of course, it's perfectly acceptable for the human characters to have only 3 toes on each foot and use baby woolly mammoths for vacuum cleaners. :P
@Frostbite864 I thought it was obvious to everyone dinosaurs existed WAY before humans! lol! The only mammals alive in the time of dinosaurs were borrowing mammels! That's why they survived because they lived in holes and could hibernate for long periods!
what retards believe that humans and dinosaurs coexisted?...

@SkylarRuloff hey, don't you dare question the Flintstones Fact.
The funny thing is that about most of these apart from the human and dinosaur thing. Most were considered scientifically true. I hope people will be mistaken again and once again consider Pluto a Planet.

i don't mean to be rude to themermaidgirl247 but opinion is almost valueless in science. it either is or isn't.if your only taking the cerabelum as in the thinking part of the brain a lot of it is used up in all the scences. also if 90% of the brain was subconcious it would be the main thing that controls thinking and therefore can't be subconscious but conciousness. but more importantly i've never met a person who believes that dinosaurs and people lived in the same time period.only in the usa?

Who on earth actually thought that Dinosaurs co-existed with humans? Even the earliest of humans haven't been around that long. We'd have been wiped out by a meteorite or some other disaster that ended the dinosaur reign.

The 'Discovery' Institute has a permanent exhibition portraying exactly this, and they are lobbying HARD to indoctrinate children into believing this bullshit, AND they try to press it in to the curriculum of science-classes. This is what happens when ppl desperately try to convert a country to a theocracy, thus rendering them, by any standard, traitors of the US. It's beacuse they STRONGLY believe the earth is 6-10.000 years old, and true age of dinosaurs would destroy that notion

"No! Christianity is the largest religion in the world. So, you are going to tell me that many people are retarded? You are the stupid one."
According to your way of thinking, if the majority believes something, it is automatically correct..
So if millions upon millions of people believe the earth is flat, does that make them correct?
Your logic, simply, isn't.

@Kaaxe Actually, people that say there is nothing good about God do precisely that, go through and pick parts that seem to prove their point. If you actually understand why God did what He did (which was punishing the unrighteous), then you will see that God is good. Whether taken as a whole or in part, as long as it's in context God's righteousness is easily seen.

pokemonparty25 3 months ago
@pokemonparty25 Don't know where you get your facts from, because no modern day scientist would say that. Scans of the human brain have shown that even when do very little, most of the brain is still being used to some degree. If you were only using 10 percent of your brain, you would have to have severe brain damage.

pokemonparty25 2 months ago
@pokemonparty25 Perhaps at any given partial moment, but i can assure you that if you remove any part of the brain you will be severly paralyzed in the subject which that part of the brain controlled. It shouldnt be physically possible to use 100% of the brain at the same time because you'd have to be dreaming, running, seeing, creating, speaking, memorizing etc. However you will probably use every part of your brain individually during a lifetime, hopefully ;)

@mistermaster7492 When you can have a mutation of 2 heads in a single generation or extra leg/fingers/wings/other appendages that don't impair the ability to reproduce, and this goes on for millions of years and many generations, how is it surprising lines of generations become so vastly different genetically and in phenotype that it becomes a different species/genus/family that can no longer reproduce with other lines of generations from the same ancestor?

@mistermaster7492 how did they co-exist with roughly 61-66 million years inbetween? did jesus have a time machine? I know a good load of absolute tools who think Darwinian natural selection was a conspiracy and the earth really is 6000 years old. Oh, and it occured to that fascist christian later it was actually 6000 to 25.000 years old not just 6000, that'd be ridiculous right? Just 6000 years, no no, remember, 6.000 to 25.000.

let's not be lumping in all religious people. #3 is supported by a fringe of the religious ppl. You have a lot of religious people that have no problems with science. Its just the people who take their religion too far, and truly think the world was like genesis. I dunno. a lot of people are starting to get this way. Normally though only kids believe their myths, once people get educated they make distinctions. But there are ppl who purpose miseducate their kids.

The idiot is anyone who truly looks at evolution and can believe in the false teachings. If anyone is an idiot and mislead it is you. Check out the book of Romans with an open mind and hopefully you will see the truth. Maybe not though as some people so want to be deceived that their dark hearts will never come to the truth. I hope that is not the case for you.
