Dr. David Berlinski: Going 98 in a School Zone (Clip 12)

The producers of the critically-acclaimed documentary "Icons of Evolution" sat down for an interview with Dr. Berlinski. This is a clip from that interview.

David Berlinski was raised in New York City, educated at Columbia College and recieved his Ph.D in philosophy from Princeton University. He later became a Fellow of the Faculty in Mathematics and a Post Doctoral Fellow in molecular biology at Columbia University.

@realhomosapiens

Shall I take your eerie silence as a confirmation of my triumph on this debate or are you still are struggling on what to answer, just in case one again the questions: Where did all those cambrian creatures come from and relationship had each one another? and What is the relativeness of those creatures with those en the next layer above? simple questions for a overwhemengly supported and accepted theory to answer, am I right? if no answers, you´re an utter looser

@ttcmp0

Successfull theory? Where is the succesfullness? If you don´t adhere to you´re cut off, give me a break, that is not a successfully theory, that´s a Soviet Union style dogma, either you take it or you´re done...but that aside, if it is too successfull, Why you can not answer my questions? because you´re not equipped to? nooope, because NOBODY can, did you listen? nobody, nor Ricky, nor Shermer, nor etc, etc, etc, any explanation is based on mid-air...simple hallucinations

Berlinsy is,in my opionion....

But N. Shubbin does have credentials, right? He is the most stupid biology professor I´ve ever seen, he pushes harder and harder to make gullible people to believe that humans descend from a fish, you know Your Inner fish, I do undestand some people smell like a fish but a good shower will solve the problem...Now if you want to believe what N. Shubbin claim to be scientific, hence true, it´s fine, but please don´t feel proud of you "scientific" knowledge

@ttcmp0

Actually I do have many of them, and have researched on the subjet throughly, do you?

Tell me How do you explain the sudden and abrup appearence of so many different creatrues in the cambrian era? and even worst, for to make your scientific fairy tale the silliest one, tell me, How do you explain the next layer creatures above the cambrian? by means of evolution? you´ve got to be kidding, either you have a cognitive problem or a strong deluision is upon you? What is your case?

[ttcmp0]

@realhomosapiens ...Also, I have no interest wasting my time debating someone equating a hugely successful theory to a fairy tale. I suggest you find a textbook on evolution and read it.

[ttcmp0]

@realhomosapiens I don't have any interest in trying to explain to you something you've obviously closed your mind to. All I wanted to say in the first place is that Berlinsky is, in my opinion, a slandering bigot who has no credentials in biology and no real input into the scientific debate. He has nothing but irrational criticism to add to the debate.

@ttcmp0

Have you ever wondered where ALL those cambrian creatures came from?...What is the relationship from those creatures and the creatures found in the next layer above? think about it...I do understand that evolutionary dogma is mandatory in world wide education system, but are not biology professors to teach science? Any single university in the world should teach factual science, but seems to me vooodo and science fiction has replaced real science...think about it, what a pity

[realhomosapiens]

@ttcmp0

As far as I can see, you do love to believe in fairy tales, don´t you? scientific ones but nevertheless fairy tales...

Listen, if a frog turns into a Prince in an instant, nobody would argue, it´s a fairyt tale, but if and oooh what a big if, given enough time to those weird cambrian marine creatures they could turn or evolved into humans, let alone all the creatures along the road AND that´s knowledge accumulated by the foremost scientist in the field? hmmm, Neil Shubin for example?

[ttcmp0]

(just to make it clear: I'm stating the facts in the context that evolution is factual. So my beginning statements are expressions of that. Therefore, what I stated is what _seems_ to me be correct. And I did not append that with "for sure" or "no doubt about it")

[ttcmp0]

@realhomosapiens And yes, we share the lineage of life with bananas. Our common ancestor is probably in the order of being our great^(200.000.000)-grandpa.

Now, because these timespans are beyond our comprehension (you apparently "seem to think" that great-great-great-grandpa is equivalent to what evolutionary theory claims), it only makes the theory more plausible.

Lastly, where are the proofs that these assertions of cambrian ancestor is "totally wrong [...] for sure"?
