  • Simply not true. Your skin is actually sensitive to certain frequencies of light, which is why everybody feels better when the sun's shining. You absorb energy from sunlight, so there is already light sensing equipment in your skin. Further, each generation gives a greater advantage over the generation before in the fight for survival. The evidence that eyes evolve lies in the wide range of differeing eyes in the animal kingdom. You really need to do some research.

  • I looooove Richard Dawkins!!! OMG!

  • Your scientific excuse does not impress God; humble yourself before Him for He cares for you

  • Chocolate rain has over 10mil views while this has only 6,399 views??? The world has issues...

    No, it wasn't a fact then if it isn't a fact now. Facts are immutable. Our understanding of it may have changed, but what was true then is true now, and vice versa.

  • @hackenbollox

    You have to remember that this was made in the 1980's. Our understanding of different things and how those different things work has improved immensely since then. What he is saying was fact a the time. However, this is a different time.

  • @bpbusstop i'm not a biologist but for what i know i think it works the otherway around i mean random mutations occur in the DNA and the individuals that are more adapt to the enviroment (the fittest) tend to survive thus having bigger chance to mate and spreading their genes to the next generation

  • One question about evolution:

    I understand natural selection, and why evolution is important for animals to adapt and survive. But how does the NEED to adapt change the DNA?

  • looks like kirk cameron ;)

  • @joshualcoombe

    Radiation which is emitted with light??? Light IS bloody radiation! Specifically it is radiation within a certain range of frequencies detectable by the eye.

    As for the rest, such a question would assume that anything that gives an advantage would necessarily evolve, which is simply not the case. A cranium made of titanium would provide a survival advantage, especially since titanium is found in the body. Do you see the problem here?
