Lichens - Too Complex for Evolution

[RichardRoy2]

"Nobody knows", therefore, God did it! Of course! How obvious. How simple. How oblivious. How bent.

@RichardRoy2 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. Doth not the ear try words? and the mouth taste his meat? With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding. With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding. Job 12:7-13

[RichardRoy2]

@BereanBeacon1 Yeah, great. Thanks. Free bible verse. Interpretation might either set you free, or enslave you; your choice, and mine. If he was going to be that much of an ass hole, I'd just thank him not to bother in the first place. BTW, get a job, whatever the pay rate.

[BereanBeacon1]

@RichardRoy2 But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee: Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee. Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this? Job 12:7-9

[RichardRoy2]

@BereanBeacon1 Of course! Scripture! All the answers to all the questions you were afraid to ask wrought by men claiming to represent said lord. And, of course, we must trust these men, and all others who make such claims, including modern ones from the assylums.

I'm not lichen this video

[ReinhardvonHolst]

Fifth time i have watched this now and still loving it.

[WhiteEnvy13]

Great video. Fantastic review for my biology lab exam tomorrow. =]

You are talking about a series of complex biosystems and a series of negative arguments. You don't prove a positive with a negative. One person can say the moon is made of granite, another can say of cheese. When they find its not granite the first person says that it means it is made of cheese. The problem: science is TAUGHT AS A BODY OF KNOWLEDGE AND NOT A PROCESS. The most important lesson is how to gather and interpret evidence, to show the process of discovery that lead to the idea.

[EscapePodFilms]

I get it. God told a fungus to rape a plant.

[ReinhardvonHolst]

great video.... more people need to learn about nature instead of celebrities and what to spend their money on. well done.... again, good audio and info.

A lichen is the amazing example of symbiosis between algae and fungi.  The two organisms evolved separately and merged into one over time, and now continue to evolve.

[dutchhenkie]

Even lichenology is abused by these science-hating creationists... Thank God Europe survives as a refuge for pure science. If you don't see evolution working every day while studying lichens, you must be blind. But yes, religion makes some people blind.

[edodfaao]

Great example of evolution!

[Starclusters]

thanks for posting,informative

[Desertphile]

Golly:"It was magic." Why, that sure solved the problem.

[MaxInfidelis]

An invisible magic man in the clouds did it! Wow, that was easy, maybe I am stupid enough to be a creationist!

[BereanBeacon]

MaxInfidelis, If you believe your ancestors were a group of dead chemicals which were related to a rock then anything is possible.

[CaptainAnorexia]

Amen. We were obviously created on a bet between God and his failed experiment of a beautiful angel to see who could get more followers. I love worshiping a selfish god!

@BereanBeacon Chemicals are abiotic objects soooo they aren't dead because they were never alive.
