Noah's Flood - debunked (Part 1)

gregrutz Says:

Feb 27, 2010 - Why do you have the same DNA code as a plant? common ancestor?

lasciencefan Says:

Feb 27, 2010 - @gregrutz simple answer for a theistic believer is the designer just used the same code or DNA to code for the same amino acids from which all protiens in all life are made..we are all connected genetically yes as we are "built" using the same "code"..it is evidence for common ancestry but not proof..as no genus has ever been observed changing into another genus..and no missing links are found anywhere..nevertheless it could still be true..but without GOD its all impossible..

gregrutz Says:

Feb 27, 2010 - No genus changing into another genus That is why; all humans are still apes, and all apes are still monkeys,and all monkeys are still primates, and all primates are still mammals.and all mammals are still tetrapodsWhat is a missing link?

lasciencefan Says:

Feb 28, 2010 - @gregrutz you are a f@#king lunatic..stop talking to me..a missing link is YOU ..you obviously have a few missing brain cells ..;)

gregrutz Says:

Feb 28, 2010 - at least they found the missing link.

adkinsjr Says:

Feb 28, 2010 - "thats the problem with scienew today data is not weighed it is interpreted into he current "theorty" which are constantly being rewritten.."That's what I said earlier: "Every theory in science evolves over time, and none of them are perfect even to this day. Science does not claim to be perfect." However, I don't see why that's a bad thing. Science would be impossible if we made no attempt to define general principles in which to interpret data.

lasciencefan Says:

Feb 28, 2010 - @adkinsjr your right actual unbiased scientists do not claim to be perfect..but when you watch a documentary on television about the "way" it all happenned the public is fooled into believing that science is perfect and "knows" what it is saying when in actual reality all it is is just a bunch of unfalsifiable data.. all the supposed human forebears the few that have yet to be proven as frauds or mistakes are preached as proof of human evolving from apes..it is just propaganda

lasciencefan Says:

Feb 28, 2010 - @adkinsjr DNA has proven that every man alive today descend from a single ancestor or man...but they assume that there were other men around at the time..i propose that this ADAM was the first man and who can prove it wrong ? no one..then someone will say we have neaderthal mamn..which was a fraud..or some other prehuman fossil that is constructed from a tooth which later turns out to be a pigs tooth..or some other extict ape or human species claimed as the missing link..there is no proof

Mar 1, 2010 - These videos are great. So interesting and funny.

adkinsjr Says:

Mar 2, 2010 - Where did you hear that neanderthals were a fraud? That's absurd, there are multiple specimens including DNA samples. They are a well documented species of human. "propose that this ADAM was the first man and who can prove it wrong ? "I don't see how you could have a 'first man.' Where the hell would he have come from? You have to have a population. Mitochondrial Eve and Y-chromosomal Adam were not alive at the same time anyways.

Mar 4, 2010 - Neither side of this debate are attempting to explain the core questions.1. What Cataclysmic event saw the simultaneous extinction of America's large land dwelling mammals around 7500 BC?2. How do ancient tribes, the world over, who could not communicate tell a similar story of a flood and burning mountains hitting the earth. Followed by a cold 'nuclear winter type' period for 4 months3. Unexplained origins for massive inland salt lakesthere's more.. end it, unless you have ANSWERS

gamileo Says:

Mar 5, 2010 - 1: The mass extinction of the megafauna in North America was more like 12,000 years bp. There are several ideas on how it came about. One is that the new immigration of humans onto the NA continent were very effective of killing off an already stressed set of animals. And by stressed I mean they were experiencing rapid climate change and losing habitat quickly. Second newer theory is that there may have been a meteor impact in the vicinity of the great lakes, but the verdict is still out.

gamileo Says:

Mar 5, 2010 - 2: Most ancient tribes live near rivers and oceans. It only takes one cataclysmic event, say a tsunami, or a 100 year flood, to leave few survivors who go on to tell their stories to others. Since no date is ever really given by the "myths" no correlation can be made between them pertaining to a specific event. Also, have you ever seen a large shooting star? It lights the sky up for miles, and they happen a lot if you think in terms of 1000's of years.

gamileo Says:

Mar 5, 2010 - 3: Climate changes, there used to be vast savannas and forests in the Sahara, but the climate got drier and those regions moved south. The same happened all over the world, countless times. Previous climates were wetter and had more precipitation in certain areas, creating lakes and seas. Then the climate shifted ever so gradually and those seas and lakes dried up. The same is happening to the Aral Sea right now, and to the Great Salt Lake too. These aren't hard questions to answer.

Starbat88 Says:

Mar 5, 2010 - 1. Could it not have been the cataclysmic climate shift that might have occurred at the end of the last Ice Age?2. Same answer, though the burning mountains I can't explain.3. There's the pole-shift theory, where every few thousand years, the crust of the earth displaces and shifts as a single unit, moving entire landmasses into different latitudes. It could also have caused some regions to sink below the ocean and others to rise, forming salt lakes where before was open ocean.

Mar 8, 2010 - That was not man but woman and it is proven by mitochondrial DNA. It does not contradict evolution in any way.

lasciencefan Says:

Mar 9, 2010 - get your facts straight...the study by spencer wells in the documentary DNA MYSTERY THE SEARCH FOR ADAM states MEN alive today descend from a SINGLE MAN ancestor in the past

lasciencefan Says:

Mar 9, 2010 - most definately the megafauna were hunted to extinction by the human population...and there is evidence for this

lasciencefan Says:

Mar 9, 2010 - i am not claiming it contradicts evolution i believe in evolution..just not entirely convinced on the theory of common decsent for all living things ..like saying a whale a tree and a bird a spider a fly and a human share a common ancestor..it may be true but with GOD none of it is possible

APDurrant Says:

Mar 9, 2010 - @lasciencefan Yes, but oddly enough, the latest common ancestor for all men, existed much later than the common ancestor for all women.At no point was there only two humans left (As far as we know). However, there are points at which humanity shares a common ancestor for all mitochondria, and a common ancestor for all humanity's y chromosomes.

TaiFerret Says:

Mar 9, 2010 - Common descent is possible with a god. He/she/it could have seeded the earth with one species of single celled organisms and they could then have evolved in all life we see today.

chrisinsocalif Says:

Mar 9, 2010 - I find it hilarious people still believe in this story as "truth."

gamileo Says:

Mar 10, 2010 - #3 was created by a History of Science professor who created his pole shift theory to explain away Pei Rei's map which shows land to the south of S. America. About a decade after that plate tectonics came out and was almost universally accepted and explains pretty much all of what we see as far as plates on the surface of the Earth. No real geologist puts one ounce of trust in the pole shift hypothesis (it's not a theory, no one takes it seriously.)

gamileo Says:

Mar 10, 2010 - #1 it was probably both, the climate shift put undue climactic pressure on a set of animals poorly suited to deal with rapid change, and then here were creatures they knew nothing about so had no ingrained fear of humans. They were caught in a vise. Something like 15 Megafauna (greater than 1 ton) were driven to extinction in a relatively short time span in N. America. Today there are only 5 megafauna, and they exist in Africa/Asia.
