I would like to quote you:
"I breath gases like plants do, does that mean I evolved from a tree?"
That basically says you know nothing of evolution
"the science is contradicting"
What part is contradicting?
"laws of thermodynamics that state such a reaction could only result in a more basic compound"
Explain how thermodynamics contradicts the big bang theory. Then explain what the big bang theory has to do with DNA

That's the thing... you don't "believe" in evolution. Either it logically makes sense to you or you suspend judgment until you improve your understanding of it.

this women speaks as if she knows what she is saying is the whole truth of human origins... she sounds so fucking stupid omg. she says this prove that all life that evolved from the sea and that this grunting is proof we came from them and we speak becuase they started it all.. fucking frustrating omg. i will never believe in evolution simply because it will never be proven as fact. it will always be theory. A dog will give birth to a dog every time. a monkey will give birth to a monkey evertime

I'd think twice before trying to start a scientific argument with someone, in youtube comments, whose username contains the word "Jesus".

No. It is YOUR thinking that causes me not to be able to believe in God and receive ALL THINGS made known from HIM.
Only a church would teach you to shout pronouns like that.
Shouting pronouns is the first step toward brain washing. Reasonable, honest people don't need such tactics.
