ps: on blocking... I don't one star videos, I don't generally rate videos, but there is no way I'm going to bother to remember a list of people that can't be given good ratings in order to not be blocked. You guys don't disagree nearly as much on these details as you are suspicious of his overall goals and way of approaching knowledge.  The real issue is to figure out how not to waste too much energy in anger that could go into comprehension.

again: saying there is a paradigm shift should not be taken as an attack on a scientist. To build on a scientists work by bringing it to a new paradigm is an honor. Priests don't like that sort of thing, scientists DO.

Imagine if people claimed Einstein was disrespectful to Newton to create General Relativity... oh wait, some did, but weren't they silly? Isn't it obvious that that is not what Einstein was doing, and that Newtonian dynamics is still accurate to a reasonable approximation.

As it turns out, you can write down what Matt says in his videos. If you then read through this text, you can easily pick out errors and other illogical non-sequitors. But this is due to him being 22 years old. Give the young guy a break.

Pyrrho,

You are misunderstanding the meaning of the word "RELIGION". "Theories" have nothing to do with religion. You are told what to believe in religion and you do it. Period.

Gary,

BLOCK HIS ASS !!!!!

Check it out: Tiger shark pregnant females carry six baby sharks inside their bellies. The strongest and more developed baby shark EATS ALL THE OTHERS IN UTERO !!!!!

DARWIN'S THEORY OF EVOLUTION: PWNS !!!!!

EPIGENETIC PHANTASMAGORICAL BULLSHIT: FAIL!!!!

The relication of dna through reproduction is open to damage because it has to be open to change. These small "changes" over tens of thoudands of years create new species. The polar bear decended from the brown bear. Living in the Artic favoured the lighter coloured bears giving them better camoflage and therefore making them better hunters. These bears reproduced more therefore the bears became white and effectively a new species.

Good video as usual. Keep bashing the stupid fundie christtards.:)

Darwin is the true prophet. Natural selection is what it is all about. The Origin of Species (1859) really smashed my concept of the bible mainly Genesis. I realized that the Greek and Roman gods were myths and the bible was also based on myths. Keep up the great Videos!

it's just that epigenetics is irrelevant to your point, which i see as:

1) everything is run by forces that have no meaning, & are not directed by intelligence.

2) if there's no meaning, there's nothing that justifies suffering.

from my point of view, it doesn't matter if the system is complex or simple, or competitive or cooperative, it still is directed by forces, not by intelligence.

epigenetics is interesting for other reasons, non-philosophical reasons. but it's still another dumb force.
