You have got to be kidding. He compares us to a minnow. You can breed as many different dogs as you want but its still a dog after a billion years. rofl a peacock powned darwin.

The only thing pwned is your knowledge of the subject. Seriously, do some research before making such a rubbish comment. If you want to deny evolution. You might as well deny the fact that the earth goes around the sun. And if you do deny evolution. What is your evidence for this? And does it outweigh the evidence for evolution? DNA evidence, fossil records, verified predictions and observations. Can you really disprove all of that?

And I'm not trying to exclude god. God could have created the big bang. Meaning all science is right and there is a god. Thats not my point of view. But I don't exclude the idea. My problem is when someone doesn't quite understand something. And rather then try to find the answer, they assume it was god. "Sounds planned to me." There would be next to no modern science today if we made that assumption all the time. A lot of things seem overly complicated until you do some research.

When you spend some university's money for some field research, the university EXPECTS that you come back with a discovery, or a proof on what you've been working on.

@urantivirus yeah only that most of the things in the bible conceptually contradiction many of the things we see empirically. if the bible was the words of god then...the god isnt so perfect like it says in the bible

I can see by your previous comment that you're just pissed off at evolution, not about sexism. How would you suggest they re-narrarate this documentary to appear less sexist?

[LordMorningStar]

OK. I am pissed off at the way the narrator is either misunderstanding the idea or whoever wrote did. The video is sexist - male and female is a human construct...an idea... A male is no better or worse than a female. It is just the way evolution went - that is it. No need to impart a sexist view on the evolution. TY.
