Ayn Rand Argues that the Ardipithecus Discovery Does Not Disprove Evolution

Ayn refutes Creationist Chris Esparza's assertion that the Ardipithecus discovery proves there is no missing link, which wiuld, if you accepted it, essentially disprove evolution, since evolution is all about branching, with certain species at the branch splits..

Is it just me, or am I the only one who realizes Ayn Rand died long before Ardi was published to the scientific community? I'm just commenting on the title of this post.

Who created this video? ..... I don't think "TheJoeyPantoShow" created this video,he is just a myth.

[TheJoeyPantoShow]

The video was not created, it evolved from more primal videos, reproducing in cyberspace with no divine human intervention

[komododrago]

how does "primal video" exist? of corz if there is video there is director if there is director there is creator,if there is creator there is actor which are humans,animals,plants etc.Therefore there is a divine creator.Otherwise your voice over do not exist.

your kung fu is strong, komododrago. if i am divine, then i should be able to make shows like 'pimp my ride' disappear and make reality shows about innovative entrepreneurs appear. i'll keep trying.

Actually that's not the case I'm afraid. Rice have ten times the genetic material that humans do, and blowfish have immensely more efficient DNA with almost no junk or unused segments, whereas some 95% of the human genome is junk DNA with no discernible purpose.

Our intelligence and aptitude with scientific and physical princples is not due to biological evolution (as our brains have changed little in ten thousand years) but to an accumulation of knowledge, thanks to Language and Civilization.

What has Ayn Rand have to do with this? As others pointed out, she died a long time ago. This guy needs to go back to school.

If there was 10 bones like this I could surely accept the evolution and I could call this bone a missing link. But when is only one, were that could be tens, I think different. Some times I ask if this bones are belong to a freak human or a freak Gorilla. If we found a girl bone with 6 legs, 300 million years old, can we say this is a missing link between human and Octopus for having 6 legs and a human head?

Can Missing link be mistaken by a bone disorder or a sickness that disfigures bones?

most complex thus far!

Truly frightening. A thread of such stupidity and sophomoric adherence to simplistic reasoning and puerile understandings of evolution and science(and Ayn Rand) is a sure indicator of the fragility of humankind and should be an obvious realization that man is not at all what he thinks he is. Mankind's days are numbered... can we honestly say it was fun while it lasted? We have lost the ability to write with any succinctness, and spelling - well who cares, we're still "the most evolved thing(s)."

no. virus's are our predators. they are at the top. they allow us to breed out of control solely for their convenience.

Geo,

I think you mean the most 'successful' species.
