Part of a superb series of videos exposing the funny stupidity of creationists and why they deserve to be laughed at. In each case the creationist statements are shown to be outrageously stupid by even the most rudimentary knowledge of science.
In this episode it is shown why the 'probability calculations' done by creationist are utterly pointless and do not show what the creationists claim.

Saying evolution is all random is like saying casinos are rich because of pure chance. Little bias, HUGE effect.

[rkyeun]

Yeah, evolution is just an accident. It's RANDOM CHANCE.

Just like water flowing downhill is RANDOM CHANCE.

If you believe in the theory of multiverse, in some universe, in some place,in some time theres a infinite chance of michael jackson being alive

Yeah, but saying that "we are here arn't we?" is circular reasoning at it's worst!

Creatards don't understand shit about probability or measure spaces or quantum mechanics. The "probability" (however that is defined, exactly, for nearly-continuously moving atoms) of any specific snapshot out of ALL possible other configs is zero. That just means the Lebesgue measure of points is zero: that practically follows from the definition of how Lebesgue sigma-algebras are set up. Instead, quantum mechanics forces us to talk about probs of a range of locations and momenta of particles.

[mphello]

Don't pander to the audience TF: if they (and of course I mean creationists) don't understand that the definition of probability itself, and hence its computed value, depends upon the probability space from which one samples, and don't understand factorials, then tell them tough shit: just proceed without going through the basics for them. I like to see them squirm.

@nathanprindler cause and effect doesn't always work when it comes to quantum theory.

What are the chances the sperm that created YOU happened to make it to your mother's egg? If a different sperm would've made it, would you have been a different person? What were the odds of the folks who were onboard the hijacked airliners during September 11th 2001 and not some other flight? What are the odds you get to have sex with the woman of your dreams and create the perfect child, the one who grows up to be an NFL quarterback, making millions? The point here: Probability is meaningless.

I wanna make pebbles :D

[oBLACKIECHANoo]

@nathanprindler Oh yes, "but where did the laws come from" Maybe if you wasn't a pathetically moronic subhuman, you would be able to understand that. Fuck, even a 10min read on wikipedia can tell you alot about such things, but you're not even smart enough to know that. And you think evolution happens instantly? HAHAHA, Honestly,0 you should be gassed.

Uh... Thunderfoot....the probability of placing an object in a square on a grid of 8x8 is 1 in 64, not 1 in 100. But yeah...I get it.

[Artwich]

The best bit: "evolved by chance".
