How Evolution Causes an Increase in Information, Part II

cdk, you are awesome. You are a god amongst men. Well, a demigod, I'm an atheist....
but you can make things a bit simpler, just ask around to a few other people (donexodus, TF, Thetaomega, Aronra etc.) to have them simplify it even further. For example, a summary of that first 1:40 is:
"The more you know, the less you don't know."
Then explain bits separately. That hurt my head.
Then with proteins, the analogy is: "Flip 20 pennies. Keep the ones that land heads up. Reflip the tails. Repeat."

One problem with your little annalogy. How do you keep the ones that land on heads?  How does a creature do that. IT CAN"T. Mutations are accidents. You can't control accidents. A more realistic annalogy would be, "Flip several million pennies. If they don't all land heads up, flip them all again until they do."

Wow, wanna THINK sometime?
the "heads", the genes are kept through reproduction of the stronger/luckier organisms, and via genetic heredity this information is passed on.
Way to go, you have no idea what the basic forces of evolution are.

Well actualy nature does control those accidents. Any of the mutations that don't aid the animal are not selcted for but if they also harm the animal that animal (or plant) is more likely to die and not pass on those accidents. The fewer accidents around the better and more swiftly the appropriate end result is found by nature.

"Bare with me" ???? Are we getting undressed...

Great Videos - sorry for the quibble ...

0x8x0: I am trying to spread my new theory, why do you think that I am spamming?
There are thousands of evolution video or comments here. Actually you are spamming to spread the evolution lie.

You should watch part III of this series. It demonstrates one possible means for additional DNA can be added to an existing genome: retroviruses.
