IMPORTANT NOTE: A CREATIONIST TROLL BROUGHT DOWN MY RATING. Two months since I made this video, 5 people rated my video highly, in two days that number turned into 140 ratings. Obviously someone is trolling.

More predictions from other users:

Darwin believed that the ancestor to modern birds would have unfused metacarpal bones, along with distinctive reptile traits. Low and behold, that's exactly what we find in archeopteryx. He also postulated that whales were descended from land based mammals, once again, fossil finds and genetics confirm once again. - Lowcomedy

Another prediction by evolution, (perhaps the most powerful), is that morphological traits are variable and slightly unstable. And that there must be a biological mechanism that is the source of these invariably-variable traits.

This prediction was confirmed with the discovery of DNA. Creationsism does not investigate nor ever tried to predict such a mechanism - Chas1422


8 predictions by Evolution that I mentioned:

Nested Hierarchy
Chromosome II
Tiktaalik
Trilobites
Salt in whale bones
Hemocyanin
Vitamin C
Reptile jaw joint

  • Evolution is not science.

  • @JungleJargon first of all when someone makes a video, you should address the points. You do not rebut the argument. Secondly, every single accredited university in the united states and europe accepts that evolution is science. The fact that you do not think so only makes you look bad, not them.

  • @truthofevolution

    you can coexist with you ancestors, but you can not predate them!!!!!!! acording to your own dating methods anphibians are older than tiktaalik.

    and the same is true with most of all the supposed transitional fossils, most of them are not found in the correct order.

  • @truthofevolution

    ´´your point about tiktaalik is as silly as saying because you are alive at the same time as your father that you cannot be related to your father. It shows a severe lack of understanding´´

    NO!! my point about tiktaalik is; because I am older than my supposed father, then he by definition can not be my father (you can not be older than your father)

    in these case anphibians predate tiktaalik, therefore tiktaalik can not be the ancestor of anphibians.

  • @Answerquestions1 also i want to make it clear that I think you are very honest and intelligent. However, I am confident that your sources are uneducated people who pretend to have knowledge. No one with a biology degree should make that argument about chromosome number. The fact that your source made that argument shows me he has NO understanding of biology.

    However that is a reflection of his character not yours. You are an intelligent honest person.

  • @Answerquestions1 your point about tiktaalik is as silly as saying because you are alive at the same time as your father that you cannot be related to your father. It shows a severe lack of understanding.

  • @Answerquestions1 Im trying to point out that you have a severe lack of understanding of the subject. Also tiktaalik was found where scientists predicted it to be found. You cant undo that. Scientists predicted they would find the animal there and they found it. That is a prediction. You cannot undo it.

    Just like how you can live at the same time as your grand father, tiktaalik can live at the same time as its descendant. We still found it in the correct layer.

  • @Answerquestions1 "you dont know about my sources" I know they are not scientific papers. They show a complete lack of understanding of the subject, Im a PhD student and I can tell you that I understand the subject better than your sources. My only conclusion is that they were written by an idiot without a biology degree and an agenda. Find a whale with a non nested hierarchical fin and you disprove evolution.

  • @truthofevolution

    non of my facts are wrong, and you don´t know anout my sources. just pick one of your predictions, and tell me how to falsify it.
