How Evolution Works the GAME. A must see!!!

Interesting how most of the Young Earth Creationists and people pushing Intelligent Design, clearly don't have an education in the biological sciences. Evolution is the product of Natural Selection AND Mutation. Either alone does nothing.
Evolution is the logical outcome of the world around us. Organisms that store their genetic information in DNA are guaranteed to have mutations. Mutations produce NEW variation. Reproducing organisms are guaranteed to compete for resources. Competition between variable organisms leads to natural selection, i.e. those organisms that possess variation that gives then an advantage will out compete those who don't. Organisms with deleterious variation will lose to all other organisms. In this way the ENVIRONMENT SELECTS the best organisms. This has the effect of passing beneficial mutations on to the next generation and removing deleterious ones. Over time natural selection will lead to a net shift in the genome of the population, i.e. evolution.
Yes, this really is evolution. Changes in allele frequency, changes in gene expression, and changes in transcription factor binding efficiency, they are all evolution.
Logic predicts evolution, and observation confirms it. Evolution has been observed in the lab and in nature. Speciation (macroevolution) has been observed in the lab and in nature. Large changes in appearance have been observed in the lab and in nature. Beneficial mutations have been observed in the lab and in nature.
CORRECTION: Some have noted that Evolution need not include Natural Selection, as genetic drift does result in evolution. I agree that genetic drift is evolution, and should stress that Natural Selection is just one mechanism for evolution.
Natural Selection + Random Mutation = Evolution Genetic Drift + Random Mutation = Evolution
Both are true.
To see an example of how genetic drift can lead to a speciation event, i.e. macroevolution, check out an old video of mine

@MrAfar11: Now, as far as your 480 mbp gap? There is none. There are various substitutions, deletions, and insertions that account for a good many the specious claims you make. but on the average the difference is still 1.23%, per Britten R J, Sibley, C. G. and J. E. Ahlquist. and Chimpanzee Sequencing and Analysis Consortium. You might also want to take a look at Pollard's work on HAR1 and development. It's these very few critical changes that made us human.
@MrAfar11:Seems like you might be doing a bit of quote mining there, hmmm? First of all "a change of only 3 is fatal". Well that's a bit misleading isn't it? Perhaps if it is a reading frame error it can be, but that also depends if the organism is homozygous for that gene. Indeed, the F508 deletion in heterozygous CF carries has been shown to provide some resistance to cholera, typhoid, diarrhea, and TB. (continued)
Humans and chimps have thousands of differences. Evolutionists had originally claimed that the gap was only 1.6% in difference. Doesnt sound like much but calculated out that gap is 480000000 nucleotides and a change of only 3 is fatal to an animal. There is no possibility of change period.(Human Genome Project CEM factsheet) Later on they found out it's only 95% similarity and the latest research shows a 7.7% difference and the more it's studied the worse the problem gets(Nature May 27,04
Listen there is no real evidence that life evolves from one form to a totally different form. Polywogs to frogs don't count as they are the same. Tell me this, where did evolution begin? there was something there to create it and there must of been something before it and so on. That to me is always been. Like GOD always been. Why it so hard to believe in God when you believe the same exsistance from evolution? read the facts of the dead sea scrolls and timelines.
As usual, this idiot tries to paste in a ton of supposed "evidence". He wants to spend five minutes with copy and paste and then falsely ridicule anyone who doesn't spend days responding to each and every one of them. Now he tries to find as much as he can, specifically because of how foolish I made him look, which only shows that he knows that he didn't know what he was talking about then and he still doesn't. He has learned however to point to other lnks.
Bring the evidence forward? Try going google or any other search engine and type in "observed instances of speciation" or "fossil evidence for macroevolution". Your making unsupported claims and accusations against evolution, while you haven't presented your hypothesis or explained why the evidence for evolution is false.

Do you even know what you are talking about?
Nor has it been defined. Is it a change in species? 'Kinds'? 'Sorts'?

You presuppose "living organisms". I know this video is not about abiogenesis.
So, let me ask you one question.
Does new information arrive in living organisms through mutation only?
