Evolution, Law, Education, and Politics: Creationism Laid Bare

[Mogley52]

ALTHOUGH I'M A CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN (Baptist), I no longer believe that the Bible teaches eternal torment or suffering. The Bible teaches eternal punishment, but it's not eternal torment. In my popular Internet article, TRADITIONAL DOCTRINE OF HELL EVOLVED FROM GREEK ROOTS, I explain how and why teaching of eternal torment entered early into Christianity and how Scriptures have been misinterpreted and taken out of context to support that teaching. ~Babu G. Ranganathan (B.A. theology/biology)

SCIENCE SHOWS THAT THE UNIVERSE could not have sustained itself eternally because of entropy (even in an open system). Einstein confirmed that space, matter, and time had a beginning! That beginning had to be supernatural because natural laws have no ability to bring the universe into existence from nothing. The supernatural cannot be proved by science but science points to a supernatural intelligence for the origin and order of the universe ~ HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM (Article)

[Mogley52]

CREATIONISTS RIGHT ABOUT ENTROPY. Read this Internet article. Entropy occurs in both open and closed systems. In every transfer of energy some of the energy becomes useless. Given enough time, all of the energy becomes useless and the universe cannot be sustained. Even in an open system, there has to be an already existing energy-converting, directing mechanism to develop order such as when a seed becomes a tree. Spontaneous order from chaos is not possible, not to any significant degree.

[Mogley52]

EINSTEIN CONFIRMED that space and time are just as physical as matter. That's why space and time can be altered by gravity, and space produces particles. Einstein's equations show that the universe couldn’t be eternal. It had a beginning. Einstein believed, because of science, in the existence of God behind the origin and order of the universe. He didn't believe in a personal God like Christians do, but he did believe science pointed to the existence of an all powerful and intelligent Creator.

NATURAL LIMITS TO EVOLUTION: Only evolution within "kinds" is genetically possible (i.e. varieties of dogs, cats, etc.), but not evolution across "kinds" (i.e. from worm to human). How did species survive if their vital tissues, organs, reproductive systems were still evolving? Read my Pravda Internet article: WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS! I discuss: Punctuated Equilibrium, "Junk DNA," genetics, mutations, natural selection, fossils, genetic and biological similarities between species.

[Mogley52]

ALL REAL EVOLUTION ( i.e. varieties of dogs, cats, etc.) in nature is the expression, over time, of already existing genes. Evolution is possible only if there’s information (genes) directing it. Only variations of already existing genes are possible, which means only limited evolution and adaptations are possible. Nature has no ability to invent new genes via random mutations caused by random environmental forces. That’s evolutionary faith, not science. Read my article, WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS!

[Mogley52]

DAWKINS, HITCHENS, AND HAWKING REFUSE TO DEBATE with creationists who are SCIENTISTS, such as the scientists at The Institute for Creation Research. Dawkins and his friends only debate non-scientist creationists. Read articles by scientists supporting creation at The Institute for Creation Research site. Read analysis from creation scientists about the latest news concerning genetics, fossils, astronomy, etc. that you won't read in the main stream media. Visit Institute for Creation Research.

WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS! This Internet article describes how evolutionary scientists are disagreeing over all the "evidence" traditionally used to support macro-evolution. I have given over a dozen lectures, including before evolution science faculty and students, refuting macro-evolution. At the end I would answer questions and arguments from the audience. The science faculty was mostly silent. They knew enough science to understand what I was saying was true.

EXPLAINING HOW AN AIRPLANE WORKS doesn't mean no one made the airplane. Explaining how life or the universe works doesn't mean there was no Maker behind them. Natural laws explain how the order in the universe works, but mere undirected natural laws can't explain the origin of that order. Once you have a complete, living cell then the genetic code/mechanisms exist to direct the formation of more cells, but how did the cell naturally originate when no directing code/mechanisms existed in nature?

[Mogley52]

NATURAL SELECTION IS NO BLIND WATCHMAKER because it can only "select" traits, not produce them. If a trait survives, that survival is called being "selected." Natural selection operates only once there is life and reproduction, not before, so it couldn't have been involved in life's origins. A partially-evolved cell (an oxymoron) would quickly disintegrate. It couldn't wait ("survive") millions of years for chance to complete it and then make it alive!

[Mogley52]

GENETIC AND BIOLOGICAL SIMILARITIES are better explained due to a common Designer Who designed similar functions for similar purposes in the various forms of life. Genetic information can't happen by chance, so this is the best explanation. So-called junk DNA is not junk. These "non-coding" segments of DNA have recently been found to be vital in regulating gene expression (how, when, and where genes are expressed in the body). Read my Internet article WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS!

THE SCIENCE SUPPORTING CREATION (Google this title to access the site). The site presents a collage of evidences from science supporting creation and refutes arguments by evolutionists (i.e. "flaws" in design of human eye, "junk" DNA, embryonic recapitulation, age of the earth, fossils, etc., etc.). Also, read my Internet article ANY LIFE ON MARS CAME FROM EARTH. In the Earth's past, powerful volcanic activity spewed life-containing dirt into space very possibly reaching Mars (quoting Newsweek)

"Creationist threat" LOL!

[IAmMeTisAll]

With all the scientific discoveries and uses of science in general, its sad to know that some people still believe in a complete fairy tale about a supernatural bearded guy living on cloud that wants humans to suffer pain and anguish through out their whole lives. As Stephen Hawking said, "Science will win, because it works."

[saxmanchiro]

I hope this vid gets millions of viewers. But, knowing human nature and what most people think of educational vids, that probably won't happen. If you are a young person and are studying a science, pay attention and grab as much as you can. If your teacher is sliding theism into the curriculum, please make this fine organization(NCSE) aware of it. The more they know of the travesties out there in the classroom, the better we will all be.

May I please know where to find that table at 43:23???

Thanks for uploading.

[1234yersiman]

Creationists have ADD, since they can not sit through a one and a half hour speech. I guess that is why they do not know anything about evolution.

[1234yersiman]

@1234yersiman And how do I know they have ADD? There are no dislikes! LOL!!

[avielMenter]

@1234yersiman They sit through church sermons and Kent Hovind's rantings. Whatever their problems may be, patience is not amongst them.

[mamolian]

Thanks for uploading this and continuing your fight against these zealots!

[emperorkang]

@doriansmamma the idiots greatly out number the rest of us. In America, it is an up hill battle, but we are winning.

[MisanthropeKing]

could have cut the first freakin minute, but still cool.

[THEHARMONIKZ]

Who'd have thought, that in this modern era we'd still have to refute such nonsense.

This is where religiosity loses it's grip of reality.

[vryc]

Eugenie for president!

[vryc]

Eugenie is a personal hero.

[HappyCheeze]

Eugenie is badass. I wish the audio was better, I have to strain my ears and the transcribed CC sucks :(

[123backinyerface]

Great lecture. Its quite alarming how easily people can be manipulated into thinking creationism belongs in the education curriculum.

[JoesephKatana]

Thank you, the slide at around 42:14 is exactly one of the points I've been trying to make, Eugenie Scott does it wonderfully.

[BorgMX5]

I attended this lecture. It was my great pleasure to meet Dr. Scott in person.

[BabySatch1]

I just looked up Eugenie Scott on Wiki, and i must say the most amazing thing i noticed was not her honor's and recognition but her age. She looks amazing for 65 years old. I always thought she was around 40 - 50.

Please dont retire anytime soon Eugenie, we need you. x x x

[BabySatch1]

Thanx for the upload guys. We need to get more video's like this out to the public
