why such obnoxiously loud music?  does it have anything to do with the topic?

[teddiaustin]

@skuzzbunny I know it is difficult, but the website's video player and your pc/mac have volume controls. Best thing? It only requires a very limited amount of user input for you to customize your very own sound experience to fulfill your listening desires at the precise decibel level that works best for you. Cheers!

What the bloody hell is "evolutionism?"

Is there any possible way I could find a video about science that doesn't have a creationist debate going on in the comments?

-"Congrats on having the weakest argument to date!"-

Objection, you said that observations sometimes are biased, I never said otherwise. I pointed out that your beliefs are not shielded from this criticism either.

[teddiaustin]

I merely stated that observations are often biased. That you can't deal with that fact, is your problem, not mine. That one has to take a 'fact' and try to apply it to other statements, is the weakest argument one can actually make.

Congrats on having the weakest argument to date!

-"I state: Observations/conclusions are often biased."-

Okay, I believe that the observations that Jesus walked on water are biased. Your own beliefs are not shielded form criticism. Nuclear fusion, the germ theory, thermodynamics are all biased and should be thrown away.

-"God stated that all creatures will only produce likenesses of themselves. Multiple quadrillions of examples everywhere you choose to look."-

So, this proves that God exists?

I state: Observations/conclusions are often biased.

Belief can alter observations; those with a particular belief will often see things as reinforcing their belief, even if they do not.

Ludwik Fleck 1975

Science is best defined as a careful, disciplined, logical search for knowledge about any & all aspects of the universe, obtained by examination of the best available evidence & ALWAYS subject to correction & improvement upon discovery of better evidence. What's left is magic. James Randi

-"ALL else - eg. similarities in 'looks' is a conclusion based on bias, imagination and fantasy, not 'science'."-

In other words, you haven't looked up anything, it's called "structure", if you didn't know, yes it's testable and observable, somethign which intelligent design is not. They're not lookalikes, they're observations made by real scientists, not witchdoctors.
