'Debating' a creationist (part 3)
Uploaded by: Thunderf00t
Video Description:
Oks this is the last round. The latest video of venomfangx is a bunch of rambling fallacies loosely tied together. Indeed you could spend half an hour just untangling his latest video, and it would serve little purpose, and would really be quite dull...
For example, hes wrong from the first line about 'unless you can validate a theory its useless'. You cannot 'validate' a theory..... Well exactly, if the guy doesn't even understand the scientific method, whats the point in explaining why his implementation of what he doesn't understand is wrong!
His second line is wrong too, about it being untestable if the inside of watermelons are blue.
Well infact hes even wrong on his premise.... Color is due to the light you receive from an object. The inside of the watermelon has no light, therefore it has no color, neither red or blue!
However the pigment molecules are there, and you could monitor these by a non-invasive method such as nmr.
Incidentally, VFX just copied this argument off Hovind. When Hovind used it it was bull too! Ahh the joy of being able to think for yourself rather than just parrot idiots eh venom!!
Anyways, venom is obviously an attention whore, and while I have no problem in using him as a poster boy for creationists stupidity (a role in which he actually plays a beneficial role for civilization), he seems to be laboring under the delusion that I have nothing better to do than explain to him why hes wrong on almost everything he says.
....so in an attempt to draw a line under this and get back to actually doing something useful myself, I have simply called for a straight up vote.

Tell a friend:














If you took the time to try to understand why they say universe is old(it just even got 1000000000 years older some weeks ago), you would be stunned of how little we know.
Scientist replied that they dont belive that
Belive it? Then we talk religion. (cos if they did so goes their hole life and space programs).
So I can give you a better explenation than evelution, wich actually dont have so many gaps as evelution.
You ramble on about nothing, you are not good at explaining at all - I don't understand what you're saying, it's purely nonsense. Evolution is not astromony either! Evolution is BIOLOGY! and astronomy is also older than evolution so then astronomy can't be a product of evolution. It seems to me you don't know what evolution is AT ALL. And science is a method, evolution is a theory. Evolution is a product of biology which is a product of science. You need to open and READ a textbook.
Now what do we call that? progress? Wich is just another "mini way" in evelution( we terminate those with a stick today). your great theories in physics is also an outcome of evelution, ask a monkey, or tht green man from the future. Now, your understanding of anyting, is a mere outcome of evelution. And guess what, so is your assumptions in physics as well. Einstein theory is not.
"Greek science came to exist because Darwin was born over 1500 years after". That's how I read your statements. "Because Darwin is born later than everything, it's because of him."
Tell me: is universe accelerating, or not? And what is its age?
Specific examples, please.
And yes, the ability to question theories is important: It's the basis of the scientific method.
The REAL problem is that Creationists question it badly: It's like challenging gravity by saying birds are "obviously" immune to it. We do the equivalent of calling them silly for not knowing anything about flight despite the fact that we've known how that works for decades.
I dont agree in all of KEN HOVINS ideas, but I do persoannly belive the theroy of evelution is based upon a linear wiew of progress from a BING BANG. wich is complete wrong if EINSTEIN is right. Our understaning of "age prosess" is measured in the state we are in now. And according to science suct claim of stabil state is wrong. We use linear methods in a non linear universe, and claim it to be right. The only thing were 100% sure of, is were wrong
I thought google swore to "do no evil".
