  • @AussieMuslimah99 Yes, there is the problem of some things changing and other things not changing. They just say that some things had to change because of environmental pressure and other things didn't have to change and of course that does not prove evolution. Random environmental pressure is not able to shape a human being.

    Objects never order anything, mutations never order anything and natural selection will only select what has already been ordered by the genome so there's no evolution.

  • @JungleJargon So true. And if evolution is going from one thing to something better (so its not the first thing anymore, its different) and humans evolved from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?

  • Evolution should be banned from all schools ...and anyone who has strange beliefs like mutations and objects ordering things.

    There is observable evidence that there is a Maker of all of the digitally ordered functions that we have when all other simple functions always have a maker.

    The burden of proof is on the one that thinks that objects and mutations order things. You have to prove that objects and mutations order something.

  • Sir David's on-air delivery could be called rough and amateurish yet none can equal him. His enthusiasm and honesty can not be equaled. You realized that he was not just another talking head; he was a man with a passion for his craft and for all nature. A true hero!

  • More please.

  • It's amazing to see people witness a technology for the first time! That footage of the girls listening to their singing was great.

    On another note - D.A. was hot!

  • "I don't think birds of prey should be kept in aviaries, really." HAHAHA

  • The only reason of davids last sentence is because originally he was a bird finatic! thats what started his whole fascination. watch all of his videos if you dont believe me!

  • to see the change of thought from 50 years ago conservation, to now. What a change!

    Brilliant to listen to Sir David talk.
