  • Disappointing. ABC News and DailyNews are NOT sources. They report information; they are not the source. For all I know, they asked a gold fish to swim to the left, and timed how long it was until it turned around. Nice that you took the time to make the video, but a shame you didn't take the time to fact check your corrections of urban myths.

  • @JayPeeSee1 "Primordial ooze", not "soup".

  • @JayPeeSee1 You must be high. "Information" is often created, sometimes faster than you think. An example includes nylon-eating bacteria, which got that ability from a frameshift mutation on a duplicated gene. Not only that, but scientists have induced this nylon-eating bacteria in different bacteria, with an enzyme that differs from the natural nylon-eating bacteria.

  • I cant believe that some people really believe that there lived people with dinosaurs

  • @datzfast Molecule to man evolution is more than losing hair or a tail. If you start wiht the Miller-Urey experiment and believe we started as primordial soup and evolved into what we are today then yes, evolution's basic foundation is we have moved from simple to complex. Growing or losing hair or a tail begins with genetics, which is coded information that we see degraded not created. There is no natural process that creates information. It's always from an intelligent source.

  • I think I knew all of these except for the fingernails. Answers are pretty obvious.

  • @smurfkidharley I think you misread. They cook from outside in. A microwave shoots microwaves at the food. Theres a thing called particle wave duality. Waves and particles are both at the exact same time (Crazy I know) the particles of the microwaves have energy and when they hit the outside of the food some energy is transferred to the food heating it up... Microwaves can indeed penetrate the food somewhat sortof heating the inside at same time but not all the way to the inside.

  • @xdDRUMMKING My science teacher was showing the absurdity of this claim... the answer is Christians. Or the God squad as I like to call em.

  • what retards believe that humans and dinosaurs coexisted?...

  • 3. i thought the dragon myth came from ppl finding fossils and letting their imaginations do the rest. but then i haven't seen a fossil find that looks anything like a mythical dragon. does anyone know where this myth came from. for example the mermaids came from men who have an overactive sex drive finding sea creatures attractive. lol
