Its a cosmic joke? Why are any books written, at all? Cause there exists people who are intrested in reading them. The question u are asking is applicable on most books.

When did and how did gravity evolve? (Its rhetorical) When did and how did demons evolve? (Rhetorical) Why didn't Methalphilic life spontaneously evolve on Triton? Methane appears in three forms as water appears in three forms on earth, with an atmosphere of Methane, oceans of Methane and ice at the poles of Methane. Since when the first amoeba formed without the necessity of oxygen, why has life spontaneously spawned on Triton? Evolution is a fun religion to study.

Out of interest, could you tell me which evolutionary biologists you've read the work of?

1. We haven't been to Triton, for all we know there could be microscopic life there. 2. It isn't a guarantee that every place capable of sustaining life will have life on it.

Let us know when you start to study it then.

1. Gravity evolve? Even rhetorically, what does this question even mean? It's roughly semantically equivalent to asking "when did logic die?"
2. Never, because they (most likely) don't exist, at least nowhere we have observed objectively.
3. How do you know it didn't? We haven't even found out for sure if there is a liquid water mantle or not on Triton, let alone taken any samples to check for microscopic evidence of life...
4. Actually, on the surface of Triton any methane would only exist as methane ice due to the incredibly low temperature there, for other forms we'd need access to an area a significant distance under the surface which we have not been able to observe in any way (yet)
5. See (3) - we don't know for sure there isn't life on Triton, we haven't been there yet to check the possibly liquid water mantle. The closest we have got is photographs taken by Voyager II from a 40,000km high orbit.
6. As Andy said, let us know when you intend to start, I'm sure several people could recommend good books on the modern understanding of, evidence for and grey areas in this field of science.

So the supposed increase in gravity over the past 6k years shrunk the dinos by a few magnitudes but puny humans remained the same size, along with pretty much every other animal?
Oh, man. This guy is pure gold.

You would think that it would be a lot easier to just go with the unfalsifiable claim that God made the Earth with the appearance of age than it would be to twist yourself into a pretzel trying to fit each and every square peg of evidence suggesting an old planet into the round hole explanation for a new planet.

If God does exist, why did the bible need to be written? It was actually written a) to oppress the ignorant masses and b) because trying to maintain a religion by Chinese whispers would allow people to keep changing their interpretation of things and redefining what the beliefs should be.
Hang on a minute...

(yes it's 50 minutes long, but it's not a documentary it's an entertainment show - if there's nothing on TV and you have an hour to kill it's as good a watch as anything)

Very enjoyable.Would be interesting to hear the reactions of some believers in the supernatural...How to convert an atheist is really thought provoking also..

The uploader has not made this video available in your country. f*ck YOU! God why? Is there no justice in this world. Does this prove that God hates me? Or is it a shit video so maybe proof of a benevolent god?

Or if you have the time (since we are now posting hour long youtubes) to watch the truth and have an open mind (doubt it!!!), you may choose to watch this argument of logic.
You wont have a rational logical comeback or refuttal to the fact that all arguments against the Bible, Creation and God are in fact based on the Truth's of the Bible and the Christian World View! As stated in the video, "it's like argueing against the existence of words, using words!"
Oh, and this is not a documentary either.

Very interesting,I agree we all bring presuppositions to the debate,still not sure why his are superior.Btw did you watch DB's video?

Wild life contribute to the winnowing of the human race. The first authentic super human will evolve in Australia. The stupid, unwary, weak, and slow are not designed for Australian conditions. If a condition of immigration was all new immigrants must live in a rural area for the first 3years, we could accept 100 times the current migrant intake.
Cities are the only thing letting the weak survive. Like parasites.

They assume that you shouldn't assume that God created the world a few thousand years ago. Checkmate, athiests.

Umm...is Australia proof that criminals are more evolved than the general population?
