Transcript
- 1:01All right, looks like we are looks like we are alive,
- 1:06everybody. Welcome to standing for truth.
- 1:08If you enjoy the content that we put out, including the debates
- 1:12interviews and discussions, then please hit that subscribe button
- 1:16and also make sure to tell others about us as well.
- 1:19Now, tonight is the big night. This is the much anticipated
- 1:23debate between atheist, Junior and dr.
- 1:26Kent hovind. They will be debating.
- 1:28Should Evolution be taught. In public schools.
- 1:32This is an exciting one. This is sure.
- 1:34Going to be one to remember. I can guarantee you that and
- 1:38let's waste no time. You guys came here to see The
- 1:41Debaters and not me. So why don't we kind of break
- 1:45the ice here? Dr. Hoeven and AJ thanks so much
- 1:49for being here. Gentlemen, you guys are on mute,
- 1:51but why don't we do a couple brief introductions first who
- 1:55you are? What's going on over at your on
- 1:57over at your ministry, dr. Hovind, you've been Are about 18
- 2:01times, so you're no stranger to this Channel and Ministry.
- 2:05Thanks again for giving us your time.
- 2:07Dr. Alban, you ran from me, my pleasure, if you want to give a
- 2:13brief introduction. Kent, what's going on over at
- 2:16now? Yeah, go ahead.
- 2:18All right. Well thank you.
- 2:18My name is Kent hovind. I was a high school science and
- 2:20math, teacher 15 years. I've been ordained Baptist
- 2:23preacher for 47 years. I take the position.
- 2:25The Bible is absolutely true cover to cover and the Earth was
- 2:29made in six days by God. Like just like you said, he did
- 2:32dinosaurs lived with man all through history, they did not
- 2:35live millions of years ago. The flood of Noah is the only
- 2:38reasonable logical way to explain all the geology that we
- 2:41see on the earth. The geologic column does not
- 2:43exist. Anywhere on the planet, there is
- 2:45no evidence for evolution whatsoever, evolution is the
- 2:48dumbest and most dangerous religion in the history of
- 2:51humanity. There's never been a dumber idea
- 2:53than to believe mosquitoes and whales are related and came from
- 2:56a common ancestor. So those are the nice things.
- 2:59We have a dinosaur Adventure, Land, in Lenox Hill, Bella theme
- 3:02park, I Museum of Science Center.
- 3:03It's all free. Come on down.
- 3:05Look to have you awesome. Well thank you for that
- 3:08introduction. Dr. Hovind I do plan to visit
- 3:10one day. So thanks again.
- 3:12And why don't we hand it over to atheist?
- 3:14Jr. You are on mute, just make sure
- 3:15you unmute yourself, brief introduction.
- 3:17This is your first time debating on this channel so tell us tell
- 3:21the audience who you are and if they were to go check out your
- 3:24channel. What are they going to find?
- 3:27Yes, I personally don't have a theme park.
- 3:30I do have a YouTube channel though.
- 3:32And on my channel, I talk about religion and the problems I find
- 3:38with it. I have interviews with atheists
- 3:41and theists alike, you know, people of all religions and non
- 3:45religions are welcome on my channel, you know, so I want to
- 3:47create an welcome environment just like sft does.
- 3:50So that's about it for me. Awesome, I appreciate it.
- 3:54Thanks for being here. Thanks for doing this.
- 3:56Debate. This is an important topic,
- 3:58that's for sure. Before we get right into it, I
- 4:02want to go over the format for the evening for the audience.
- 4:06So we are going to be starting with 10 minute opening
- 4:08statements atheist Junior's going to start.
- 4:11He's in the affirmative today, followed by uninterrupted
- 4:14five-minute rebuttals, and then an equally time cordial
- 4:19discussion. I will moderate, of course, and
- 4:22we'll keep it to one Topic at a time.
- 4:25Will end it with Three-minute concluding statements and then
- 4:28an audience Q&A. So everybody please your make
- 4:31sure you're tagging me at standing for truth.
- 4:34We usually have a lively audience so I don't want to miss
- 4:37your question. Make sure you are tagging me.
- 4:40That being said, let's waste no more time.
- 4:43Atheist Junior, the floor is yours.
- 4:45If you need to screen share, let me know and I can do.
- 4:48So you have 10 minutes whenever you're ready.
- 4:52Okay. Should I share my screen?
- 4:54Yes. On my end.
- 4:55Okay. Yeah.
- 5:11Okay, all right. Thank you, sft.
- 5:14Thanks. Kent for being here.
- 5:17Okay. So there is a reason that I
- 5:21chose the topic of today's debate to be should Evolution be
- 5:26taught in schools. Now.
- 5:27Right off the bat, I want to define a few words, Evolution a
- 5:32change in allele frequencies in a population over Generations.
- 5:36Evolution variation within species, driven by natural
- 5:40selection, macro-evolution genetic changes at an above the
- 5:44species level, which includes speciation micro and
- 5:47macro-evolution are both subsets of evolution.
- 5:50They Encompass the same process, but at different scales science,
- 5:55scientists two things. One the pursuit of data and
- 5:58understanding of the natural world, following a systematic
- 6:01methodology based on evidence to the process of using the
- 6:05scientific method. To research these natural
- 6:07phenomena, do experiments and make novel testable predictions.
- 6:11Now Kent conflates by definition of evolution with big bang
- 6:14cosmology and the origin of life because he's attempting to back
- 6:18up his argument. That evolution is a religion.
- 6:20So he's forced to say it goes all the way back to the
- 6:22beginning of the universe. Like creationism does can't
- 6:26claim that Evolution should not be taught in public schools
- 6:28because it is a religion. Evolutionary theory does not
- 6:31describe on moral code, to follow the origin of the
- 6:34universe or life on Earth and does Not describe an afterlife.
- 6:39I would have preferred to ask should young Earth creationism
- 6:42be taught in public schools but I knew Kent wouldn't accept that
- 6:45topic. This is because Kent absolutely
- 6:47will not defend his own world view during a debate.
- 6:50Kent will not defend the Bible likely because of the fact that
- 6:53there are many passages in the Bible that he knows are
- 6:55indefensible. In fact, I could write a better
- 6:58book than the Bible. All I would have to do is take
- 7:01the King James version. Rewrite, it word for word, but
- 7:04reverse all of the pro-slavery sections, To be anti-slavery.
- 7:08Now, Kent will try to poke holes in evolution, but if someone
- 7:11ever tries to challenge, Kent to defend creationism, or the Bible
- 7:14in the debate, he will say, I'm not asking for my theory to be
- 7:17taught at taxpayer expense in the public schools.
- 7:20Now, this is not true, it's just can't get out of jail, free card
- 7:24and debates. It's him trying to shift the
- 7:26burden of proof on to me. Kent published and sold a video
- 7:30called Public School presentation.
- 7:32Where the intro says, teachers can teach using the Bible.
- 7:35He also, Sold a book by Duane Gish titled teaching Creation in
- 7:40Science teaching creation science in public schools.
- 7:43And Kent has tried to get what he calls lies, out of the
- 7:46textbooks. He did this by trying to
- 7:48influence legislation in Arkansas, by working with
- 7:51representative, Jim Holt to Draft House.
- 7:53Bill 254 8. Now, the point of this bill was
- 7:56to limit and change. What could be printed in
- 7:58textbooks the examples given were classic hoeven talking
- 8:02points about vestigial structures.
- 8:04The geologic column carbon Eating not working.
- 8:07Etc, the bill attempted to block public schools from spending tax
- 8:11dollars on textbooks, that contained, quote-unquote, false,
- 8:14or fraudulent information. So this bill claimed to have a
- 8:18list of information taught us facts about Evolution that has
- 8:21all been proven wrong. However, I can show that at
- 8:25least one of the claims featured is false and fraudulent it
- 8:28claims, that carbon dating is ineffective because of an
- 8:31example, given of a mammoth lower leg having one date and
- 8:34its skin, having a different However, if we look at the
- 8:38actual scientific paper that the information came from, we can
- 8:42see that the first state on the top right.
- 8:45If you can see that with the red arrow is 1940, but the date on
- 8:49the bottom right? Is 1948, meaning that these two
- 8:52specimens were not the same animal, they were a different
- 8:56animal. It was not the same Mammoth now
- 9:02creationists say that Evolution can't be true because we weren't
- 9:05there in the distant past to observe it.
- 9:07But we do see Evolution happening today in the lab
- 9:10scientists studied a form of unicellular algae called clammy
- 9:13de Monas. They expose the algae to a
- 9:16filter feeding predator and in response to predation several
- 9:20specimens evolved multicellularity as a defense
- 9:23mechanism. So this is a true multicellular
- 9:26organism that used to be Yourself and the experiment
- 9:29happened over 50 weeks. Now, Kent might say that it's
- 9:33still an algae, but normally this algae is single-celled and
- 9:36only brings forth, more single-celled algae.
- 9:39But this is a new kind of algae. A multicellular one with new
- 9:43genetic information. It got new traits like an
- 9:46extracellular Matrix. This is not just a colony
- 9:49because each cell cannot live on its own.
- 9:53And this is beneficial to the survival of the organism because
- 9:55it is now too big for the Predator 2.
- 9:57I eat can't likes to compare to intentionally different
- 10:03organisms and then ask if they are related you did it in his
- 10:07opening intro. He does this intentionally to
- 10:10make common ancestry. Seem like it goes against Common
- 10:13Sense. He won't instead ask if a gerbil
- 10:16and hamster related, but if he's going to ask how a mosquito in a
- 10:20whale are related or rather, how an insect in a mammal are
- 10:24related, I'll do my best to answer it DNA.
- 10:28Is the carrier of genetic information in living things.
- 10:31It is the reason that a dog only gives birth to other dogs, both
- 10:35insects and mammals have DNA in their cells by sequencing insect
- 10:40and mammal DNA, which involves looking carefully at the order
- 10:43of nucleotides. The see atg, scientists can see
- 10:47just how closely living things are related.
- 10:50So if you want proof of common ancestry, it is shown in the
- 10:53genetics, genetics, look at the order at the order of
- 10:56nucleotides in DNA. DNA amino acids are coded for by
- 11:00m RNA to make proteins, but the important part is that we
- 11:03intimately, understand the mechanisms of evolution, we can
- 11:07test them and we can understand how these contribute to
- 11:09evolutionary Novelties. We can take that information and
- 11:14generate a tree of life from it. So why should Evolution be
- 11:18taught in schools? The reason it is taught in
- 11:19schools is because it is produced cures for diseases such
- 11:22as penicillin. It is also used in the research
- 11:25of AIDS cancer and more. So schools need to educate the
- 11:29next generation of scientists and doctors and give them the
- 11:32tools needed to continue fighting novel pathogens, deadly
- 11:35microbes and antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
- 11:38It is also led to new discoveries and breakthroughs in
- 11:41agriculture and farming for example by using artificial
- 11:44selection humans. Created the modern Cavendish
- 11:47banana and created broccoli from the wild mustard plant.
- 11:51Now, this has led to less world hunger, so it's important that
- 11:54the new generation of Agriculture students and
- 11:56Farmers. Learn about Evolution students
- 12:00can learn about topics that might conflict with their
- 12:02religion without compromising their beliefs evolutionary
- 12:06theory is one of the fundamental building blocks of our
- 12:08understanding of life. As it is, currently the best
- 12:11existing scientific explanation of the way.
- 12:14Our species came to be how Ocean works is vital for all students
- 12:18to understand, students should not opt out of learning about a
- 12:21central tenant of contemporary science.
- 12:23But if they have religious objections to the theories,
- 12:26implications the public school has no right to insist that.
- 12:29They believe it that is to regard.
- 12:31Evolutionary theory is true. They don't have to believe that
- 12:34Evolution that humans evolved from a fundamentally different
- 12:37species but it's important that they understand why a majority
- 12:40of scientists agree that we do. So Kent is free to disagree with
- 12:44the scientific consensus. But arguing that kids shouldn't
- 12:47learn about Evolution at all and framing it as dangerous.
- 12:51Forbidden knowledge is unfair. At least let them learn the
- 12:54subject matter and truly understand it and then decide
- 12:57for themselves. If they believe it we are
- 12:59entering the next Century in which the United States will be
- 13:02even more dependent on science and technology that it has been
- 13:05our country's future Demands. A citizenry able to use many of
- 13:08the same skills that scientists use in their fields.
- 13:11Everyday observation careful reasoning critical as well as
- 13:15creative thinking. Based on what is known about the
- 13:17world, having an ability to use scientific knowledge and
- 13:20critical thinking depends on the education that people receive in
- 13:23K through 12. So if Kent wants to argue that
- 13:26Evolution should not be taught and claims that he is not asking
- 13:30for creationism to be taught. Then I would like him to explain
- 13:33what should be taught. Should it simply be?
- 13:35Neither If evolution has the burden of proof in my opinion,
- 13:39it is satisfied. It.
- 13:39Many times over and has lapped young Earth creationism.
- 13:43If Kent thinks he has no burden of proof.
- 13:45He hasn't addressed of Patient to say that creationism should
- 13:47be taught outside of his YouTube channel.
- 13:49So I say let creation is teach what they want in Sunday school
- 13:53but stay out of public school and that's my opening statement.
- 14:01Okay. Well thank you for that opening
- 14:03there. AJ.
- 14:05That was, you got a couple minutes to spare so I'll throw
- 14:08it into the open discussion. Period, dr.
- 14:12Hoeven whenever you are ready, you've got, you've got 10
- 14:15minutes. Alright, well, thank you so much
- 14:18appreciate that. I understand why guys like
- 14:21atheist jr. And others do not want to really
- 14:23give the whole meaning of the word Evolution.
- 14:25They want to start with macro and micro Evolution.
- 14:28When quite obviously you have to have something to evolve.
- 14:31Where did life get started? The six meetings that I have
- 14:34given for decades, our Cosmic Evolution?
- 14:37Where did time space matter come from?
- 14:39That's certainly a phrase, they use Cosmic Evolution.
- 14:41You can Google that it's found all over the place and it is
- 14:43taught in schools. The Big Bang Theory.
- 14:46So that should not be taught if he doesn't want Evolution.
- 14:48If he doesn't, it's not part of evolution.
- 14:50Well then take the big bang out of the textbooks.
- 14:52It's not part of science. Then you'd have to have the
- 14:55chemical Evolution where the hydrogen from The Big Bang
- 14:57evolved into all the other elements.
- 14:59That's never been observed. That's a religious belief, but
- 15:02it's not science. Then you'd have to have a
- 15:04stellar and planetary Evolution. We've never seen a star form.
- 15:07We've never seen a planet form nobody has ever so, but they're
- 15:11out there. So, how did it happen?
- 15:13We have to be able to give an answer for that if they want to
- 15:15teach. It in public school, we're
- 15:18discussion tonight is you know, should Evolution be taught in
- 15:21public schools? There's a much bigger question.
- 15:23Should we have public schools? Maybe the parents ought to be
- 15:26teaching their kids what they want them to learn, but that's a
- 15:28different topic. The origin of life is never been
- 15:31answered. How did life get started?
- 15:33And if a bunch of intelligence scientist someday, do create
- 15:36life in the laboratory. All that would prove is it takes
- 15:38intelligence to make life, which is what I've been saying all
- 15:41along but AJ wants to start with macro-evolution change.
- 15:46From one kind to another and he says it's the same thing.
- 15:49As microevolution, this is absolute baloney.
- 15:53Nobody's ever seen an animal change to a different kind of
- 15:56animal. Let's see what we have.
- 15:59Observed is 339, recognized breeds of dogs.
- 16:02Now in 10 different groups, they're still had a common
- 16:06ancestor called a dog. And yet, AJ believes an amoeba
- 16:10turned into a dog. They will divert attention from
- 16:16Um, this obvious teaching by saying, well, of course, dogs
- 16:20produce dogs. That's what evolution says.
- 16:22Well, that's an absolute lie because Evolutions, if they
- 16:25believe dogs produce dogs, an amoeba produce amoeba did the
- 16:28amoeba. I eventually produced a dog over
- 16:30billions or trillions of years. I'll give you all the time you
- 16:32want. So they do teach that animals
- 16:35change to a different kind of animal, which is.
- 16:37Now, the Bible says, clearly 10 times in the first chapter in
- 16:41ten more times in the flood story that the animals bring
- 16:44forth after their kind, Went to college.
- 16:47I've been talking all day on tour here.
- 16:50Darwin, muddied the Water by 10 titling.
- 16:52His book, The Origin of Species. Well, as a species, the same as
- 16:57kind. I don't think so.
- 16:59In some cases, it might be, microevolution, is variation
- 17:02within the same kind and that one has been observed
- 17:05evolutionary changes within a species or small group of
- 17:09organisms, especially over a short period of time, developing
- 17:12339, breeds of dogs, from a dog is, would be considered
- 17:17microevolution, and that is part of science.
- 17:20That's as far as it goes. Example of microevolution,
- 17:24they're talking about antibiotic resistance, pesticide
- 17:27resistance, herbicide resistance, the mosquitoes in
- 17:31the north and Region. 8 are bigger than the mosquitoes are
- 17:34no sparrows. I'm sorry.
- 17:35Sparrows are larger in Minnesota than they are in Florida.
- 17:40Wow okay they're still a sparrow.
- 17:44And the bigger bodied sparrows are going to survive better
- 17:46where it's cold because they maintain the heat better.
- 17:48It's a simple surface area to volume ratio problem.
- 17:50Bigger animals have more body, masticate, maintain their heat.
- 17:54Of course, they're going to be bigger up North, but they say,
- 17:57that's an example of evolution the mosquito population.
- 18:00They've learned over, they've evolved over billions of years,
- 18:03the mosquitoes have evolved the ability to wait, nine.
- 18:06More days to go dormant is still a mosquito.
- 18:10They are so desperate for examples.
- 18:13I have been saying for a years and AJ says he's watched all my
- 18:17videos. That's wonderful.
- 18:18Thank you AJ. I just wish they would not use
- 18:21lies to teach their theory if you want to teach Evolution
- 18:26fine, but don't use lies as an example.
- 18:28Like, Hagel talk about the embryo developing in the mother
- 18:32having gill slits. This was made up in 1869 and
- 18:36proven wrong in 1874. Here's the actual Drawings dog
- 18:42human embryo. There's haeckel's drawings, he
- 18:45lied. He doctored him up.
- 18:46Made him look alike. He had big charts of it.
- 18:48This chart right here is haeckel's chart proven wrong in
- 18:521874. Still in the textbooks right
- 18:55beside me. Now.
- 18:57AJ, if you've got some evidence for evolution, I'd like to see
- 18:59it but don't use the gill slits. And for me to go with Jim Holt
- 19:03and others and say, look, take the lies out of the books, get
- 19:06this lie out of the book AJ if you value, truth and science, -
- 19:11why aren't you on a campaign to get the Gill slit Theory, out of
- 19:14all the biology textbooks because it's not science.
- 19:18He was tried, Hagel was tried at a university, his own University
- 19:20held a trial six. Other professor said, haeckel
- 19:23you faked the drawings man. You lied on top of his drawings
- 19:27underneath her actual photographs.
- 19:30He lied. He said a small percentage of my
- 19:34drawings are forgeries. Those namely for which The
- 19:37observed material is so incomplete or insufficient, as
- 19:40to fill in and reconstruct the missing links by hypothesis and
- 19:43comparative synthesis. He said I should feel utterly
- 19:46condemned, were it not that hundreds of the best observers
- 19:49and biologists lie under the same charge?
- 19:51Wait a minute. His defense was, it's okay to
- 19:54lie because other people lie. No, get it out of the book.
- 19:58This has been proven as a fake for a long time AJ and, you
- 20:02know, it, but I would guarantee you haven't spent three seconds
- 20:06trying to get this lie out of the textbook because this lies
- 20:09support, your religion of evolution.
- 20:13The human embryo itself at the very early period, could hardly
- 20:15be distinguished from that of other members of the vertebrate
- 20:18Kingdom. Charles Darwin said based on
- 20:21hagel's, fake drawings, these were frauds, it was brought to
- 20:25attention and public attention. A 1911 110 years ago, a book
- 20:28called haeckel's frauds and forgeries so it's not true.
- 20:32I don't mind if they want to teach Evolution but they
- 20:35shouldn't be lying back in 1956. When I was three years old they
- 20:40said the biogenetic law is a proof for evolution is
- 20:42valueless. There's no value to it.
- 20:45The biogenetic law cannot be weeded out.
- 20:48It's been proven wrong, 1969, biogenetic laws is dead as a
- 20:52doornail 1988 to 1997. Owen Hagel was convicted of
- 20:57fraud but the drawings persist biology textbook, at the
- 21:01University of West Florida down in Pensacola still teaching the
- 21:04embryology. Now haeckel's, fake drawings his
- 21:08exact drawing, still use it at the University of North Dakota
- 21:11it's just simply a lie. So my contention is teach
- 21:15Evolution if you want but don't use lies to promote it and I go
- 21:20through about 30 lies on my videotape lies in the textbooks
- 21:24video number four. You can get in my So I wish we'd
- 21:27get some honest evolutionist that would say, you know, we
- 21:30like our Theory and we believe our Theory that's fine but we
- 21:34should stop lying for evidence for our Theory.
- 21:36There are telling the kids I can go through 100.
- 21:38Mm here. That the whales they slide
- 21:40number of 1518. The textbooks are telling the
- 21:44kids that the whale has invested your pelvis.
- 21:47There isn't any intelligent biologists on the planet that
- 21:50believes this is true. Those little bones in the
- 21:53whales. Abdomens are part of its
- 21:54reproductive system. Male and female bones are
- 21:57different. They have to made underwater in
- 22:00the dark with no hands and they can't talk and say squared over
- 22:02honey. They have to have special
- 22:04muscles and special bones to control all this apparatus to
- 22:06make it fit together. This has nothing to do with
- 22:10Evolution so take it out of the textbook but they're saying the
- 22:14whales used to walk on land, the whale retains pelvic and leg
- 22:17bones as useless vestiges still teaching at at the genie.
- 22:22Scott still teaching at long after it's been proven wrong
- 22:25Glenn. Biology major publisher of
- 22:28textbooks saying, the whale has a vestigial pelvis.
- 22:31That serves no function, tell that to the whale.
- 22:35Modern whales have hind limbs, which have been reduced to a few
- 22:38tiny internal, hind limb bones that have no function.
- 22:41AJ have you spent three seconds trying to get this lie out of
- 22:44the textbook? Or do you like it in there
- 22:46because it supports your religion.
- 22:48Just imagine Wales walking around, Los Angeles Museum of
- 22:52Natural History. As a whale skeleton, hang in
- 22:54there. There's the bones right there.
- 22:56Those are not vestigial legs. They never have been legs.
- 22:58They were not legs. They're not going to be legs.
- 23:01They're part of the reproductive system.
- 23:03Nothing to do with walking on land.
- 23:05But they teach this in schools, like it's part of it.
- 23:08National pornographic are Geographic, says, humans are the
- 23:11whales had Dolph and dolphins had legs along time ago.
- 23:15Whales pelvis is located. Far from the vertebra and has no
- 23:18apparent function. The whale doesn't have a pelvis,
- 23:21that's the leg bone right there. We got one in our Museum in the
- 23:24Next Room. Come on down, AJ.
- 23:25I'll show it to you. It's got a blood supply and
- 23:27nerve Supply. It's part of the control
- 23:29apparatus for making baby wails. Got nothing to do with walking
- 23:33on land but they teach it like it's part.
- 23:35Part of it vestigial structures. Like the pelvic bones in the
- 23:40baleen whale, it's in all the textbooks.
- 23:43So my contention is teach. He asked what should be taught
- 23:48AJ? Science should be taught in
- 23:51science class. We should teach science.
- 23:54What do we know the word Seer? Know, what do we know?
- 23:57We know whales make baby wails. We do not know that I mean by
- 24:01turn to Wales. You can believe that if you
- 24:03want, but that's your religion. That's why Evolution should not
- 24:06be taught. It's not only dangerous.
- 24:08It's dumb, don't keep it at home please.
- 24:10I don't want it. I don't want to pay to teach it.
- 24:12Go ahead, awesome, just on time and looks like we are heading
- 24:20into the rebuttal portion of the debate.
- 24:23Thank you so much gentlemen, for your opening statements, I
- 24:27appreciate the visuals. We've got some great questions
- 24:30coming in already from the audience and we've got a lot of
- 24:33lively chat tonight, so why don't we hand it over to AJ AJ?
- 24:37You have Five minutes for your rebuttal.
- 24:40What I'll do is I'll give you a one minute warning at the
- 24:434-minute, Mark and that way, you'll know to start winding it
- 24:46down AJ whenever you're ready, the floor is yours.
- 24:51Okay, well, that was a very nice dish, Gallup.
- 24:54I think I counted about eight or nine different things you
- 24:56brought up, but as for we shouldn't have public schools.
- 25:01I would like to like you to explain how the parents of these
- 25:06children can simultaneously. A work and teach their own
- 25:09children saying that you just want the parents to teach their
- 25:13own kids. Kind of strikes me as being
- 25:16indoctrination. And we've never seen an animal
- 25:20change to a different kind. Well, I provide an example in my
- 25:23opening statement of multicellularity coming from a
- 25:27single-celled organism over the course of 50 weeks, so it's not
- 25:32millions of years. Did the amoeba produce a dog?
- 25:35No, you're fundamentally. Mentally misrepresenting
- 25:40Evolution. And when you say produce, like
- 25:43dogs produce dogs, that's saying a dog gives birth to another
- 25:46dog. But when you talk about an
- 25:48amoeba producing a dog, that's over the course of millions and
- 25:51millions of years. And like I said, we don't need
- 25:54to see an amoeba, a single-celled creature, a
- 25:57single-celled, organism producing a multi-celled
- 26:00organism in the past. I gave an example of it and
- 26:05bigger finches. Do better in the cold.
- 26:08Environments. Yeah, that's natural selection.
- 26:10That's animals adapting to their environment.
- 26:13So thank you for providing proof of evolution Kent.
- 26:17I don't even want to get into the gill slits thing, but I'm
- 26:20just going to skip that the whale pelvis I suppose.
- 26:25It's a coincidence that the bones that are shrunken, are
- 26:30exactly where the legs of a four-legged animal would be and
- 26:35the same thing in the Dolphins. And again, you're
- 26:40misrepresenting the definition of what a vestigial structure is
- 26:44because even if the bones help the animal health, a whale
- 26:49guide, its 15-foot penis, then that's a new function.
- 26:55That doesn't meet that that can still be vestigial.
- 26:57It doesn't mean that the that the structure has no function at
- 27:01all. It just means that it has a
- 27:02different function. The brochure you showed from
- 27:08National Center for Science, Education.
- 27:10You showed the front cover of it, where it says that did a did
- 27:15a cow evolve into a whale, if you would open the second page
- 27:20of that and actually read it, you would see that that's a
- 27:22joke. It the the brochure talks about
- 27:27hippos and whales have in common ancestry.
- 27:30So I've actually seen that pamphlet and the book you showed
- 27:34on whales. I can't get lies out of a
- 27:37textbook because That's a children's book about whales and
- 27:41as for getting lies out of the textbook, well, your bill that I
- 27:45showed had false information in it so I would like you to
- 27:50explain how that bill is trying to get Liza the textbook when it
- 27:56basically had a lie in it. I mean I don't know if it was
- 27:59intentional but the information about the mammoth Said that it
- 28:04was, it had radiocarbon dates, where they gave two different
- 28:08dates for the same animal, but it wasn't the same animal.
- 28:11It was a different Mammoth. Yeah.
- 28:14And I guess I'll touch on the gill slits but I hope that it
- 28:17doesn't take up all of the time in our open discussion.
- 28:22The when they say gill slits they're not talking about actual
- 28:28physical gills there for NGO pouches or friends you larches.
- 28:32The Anything that fish embryo have human embryos have the same
- 28:37thing. They're not actual gills, they
- 28:39just become bones and glands in humans, but they become gills in
- 28:48the fish when the embryo grows to its adult form.
- 28:52So, It's not actual gills and the ones that schools don't
- 29:00teach the the heckles theory. And also I would like some
- 29:05evidence that he was ever tried for fraud because I've never
- 29:08seen any actual evidence that that happened and I'll just can
- 29:12see the rest of my time. Okay, that's 50 seconds.
- 29:16We can throw into either the open discussion or question and
- 29:22answer period. So that being said, we can hand
- 29:25it over to Kent. Can't you now have five minutes
- 29:29of uninterrupted rebuttal whenever you're ready to go?
- 29:33I appreciate that. He called it the Gish Gallop
- 29:35Duane Gish used to do a lot of debates against atheists.
- 29:37They got so frustrated because he beat them so badly that they
- 29:40developed a term to distract attention calling it the dish.
- 29:43Gallop you go through so many points.
- 29:45Well that's like if you if I point out 20 things, you're
- 29:47teaching that are wrong then therefore for it's not true
- 29:50because I gave 20 of them. What if I gave one I cannot
- 29:54believe that you're still saying that the gill slits should still
- 29:57be taught because they're not gills.
- 30:00They're just arches, you're completely missing the point.
- 30:03AJ deliberately I know they are not gill slits, they don't
- 30:08function as gill slits, their folds of skin.
- 30:10I've got folds of skin in my elbow and I can't breathe
- 30:13through them. Okay, there are simply folds of
- 30:15skin on the embryo growing. You need to learn some biology.
- 30:18That is not evidence for evolution.
- 30:22They never sent the folds of skin develop into totally
- 30:25different functions glands in the throat.
- 30:27Bone in the ear. You don't breathe through your
- 30:30ears. Oh shame on you for not being
- 30:32honest and saying, look, we ought to get this out of the
- 30:34book Skies. It's not true.
- 30:36And as far as the whale pelvis now serving a different
- 30:39function. How did they make babies before?
- 30:44The fact that those bones are in the same region as where their
- 30:47legs are another animals. Well, duh, that's where the
- 30:50reproductive organs are on most animals that do have legs.
- 30:54Of course, it's in the same region, where do you want them
- 30:56on top of their head? No, this is this is just a lie
- 31:00to teach the kids that the whale has a vestigial pelvis.
- 31:04It's not true. The textbooks, do teach charts.
- 31:08Like I have up here showing humans and pine trees and Wales.
- 31:14And fish having a common ancestor, from an amoeba, your
- 31:18example of an amoeba, becoming a multi our Colony, or
- 31:22multicellular organism even if it did.
- 31:24Okay. Can it survive, can it reproduce
- 31:28can that cluster of amoebas that coalesced to over 50 weeks to
- 31:33make this multicellular amoeba? Is there another one some place
- 31:37it can meet with? And now can it produce a
- 31:39multicellular Colony instantly? How do they make babies?
- 31:44I'd like to hear more about this research because even if you get
- 31:47this one example, where an amoeba can colonize and turn
- 31:50into a the equivalent of a unit that works together a cohesive
- 31:54unit, like the military does with their squads and and
- 31:58armies. So what is that therefore
- 32:01science that an amoeba turn to a human?
- 32:05What you've observed is an amoeba May over 50 weeks.
- 32:08I'll do more research on that has been able to colonize to
- 32:11protect itself. From some, some threat out
- 32:14there, who did it mate with and did it produce another colony.
- 32:19Is this actually a new organism? No, it's not.
- 32:23And you know, it's not and you're really desperate, you
- 32:25know how many changes they would have to be to change enemy but
- 32:29to a pine tree and a whale and a human trillions and trillions.
- 32:33Which is why you guys rely on your favorite topic time Billy.
- 32:39This is the pacifier. Ha, the keeps you guys believe
- 32:42in this. This time boy, we've got time
- 32:46for this to happen. It took 50 weeks for the amoebas
- 32:49to get together. So over billions of years, the
- 32:52amoeba could turn into a human, you really believe that, okay,
- 32:55and you're welcome to believe it, but it's not science.
- 32:59What should we teach in science class?
- 33:01We should teach science things that.
- 33:03We know the kids can learn all about the anatomy.
- 33:06They can learn all about the muscles of the body, the bones
- 33:09of the body, the radius, the ulna, carpals, and metacarpals.
- 33:12Apple's the humerus and scapula burn all the muscles that attach
- 33:15to them to biceps triceps. Quadriceps and never discuss
- 33:18Evolution. It's not part of science.
- 33:21If a kid says teacher, we've got two bones in our wrists, and my
- 33:24cat has two Bonds in his leg. Yep.
- 33:27Interesting Anatomy. You know you don't have to say
- 33:30that proves a common ancestor, the teacher could say, well,
- 33:33there's options here. It could mean they're related to
- 33:35a common ancestor or it could mean they had a common designer,
- 33:39the lug nuts, on my GMC will fit on a Chevy.
- 33:42That's proof that came from a Toyota or skateboard.
- 33:46I mean your mind. All you can see with your tunnel
- 33:49vision is the similarities prove common ancestor when it's just
- 33:53as logical to say. There's a common designer behind
- 33:56these things. As far as a parent in parents,
- 34:00indoctrinating their children? Shame on you.
- 34:02Are you a communist? You think the government should
- 34:04decide what kids are taught know, the parents should decide
- 34:09what they want their kids to be taught?
- 34:10Not you? AJ not me.
- 34:13If they want them to learn their grandpa was a rock.
- 34:15Okay, teach him that. But I don't want to pay for that
- 34:18if they want to teach the kids that amoebas turned into whales
- 34:22like this chart shows, okay? You can teach him that but I
- 34:24don't want to pay for that because that's not part of
- 34:26science. Science is what we can observe
- 34:29study test and demonstrate experimentation.
- 34:32We don't observe any animal producing anything other than
- 34:35its kind. So I want to, I want you to send
- 34:37me the research. Did your amoeba Colony, or
- 34:40whatever you want to call it 10 seconds?
- 34:41Develop to the point. Can reproduce as a colony.
- 34:45This is not Evolution that and you're really desperate.
- 34:47If that's the only example you've got, you would need
- 34:50trillions of examples like that to make your rock or your, I
- 34:54mean dr. Into a human.
- 34:56So we'll go over all of them, gets you Gallop parents,
- 34:59indoctrination, amoeba dog. You said you need return to a
- 35:01dog over millions of years. Ah, there we go time.
- 35:06That'll do it one. It that was coming back door
- 35:08open. Okay, well, thank you gentlemen,
- 35:11that concludes Ludes the opening statements and rebuttals.
- 35:15So thanks to the both of you. We are now moving into a cordial
- 35:19discussion portion, where as always, we'll do our best to
- 35:23keep it equally time focusing on one Topic at a time since can't
- 35:28just ended his rebuttal. Why don't we hand it over to AJ
- 35:31AJ? Why don't you start us off with
- 35:34the discussion portion? You are muted.
- 35:36Make sure you unmute yourself and gentlemen.
- 35:38The floor is yours. Okay.
- 35:42Yeah, with the example of clammy to Mones the multicellular
- 35:47algae, it gained new cells that have reproductive function.
- 35:51But in most multicellular species of algae individual
- 35:55cells produce, special sex cells called gametes that contain only
- 35:58one set of chromosomes and the game mates from two individuals
- 36:02fuse sexually and can put can develop directly into Offspring
- 36:06or they can form cells, that produce spores, the create more
- 36:10algae. um, and I also you said that you don't want to pay for
- 36:18Kids to learn Evolution but isn't dinosaur Adventure Land
- 36:21registered as a 501, c 3 tax exempt organization.
- 36:25Since it's a Ministry which means that it doesn't pay
- 36:28property taxes. Or if it's an open discussion,
- 36:35now let's open discussion. Well yeah, I got it.
- 36:39Prevents your land is property tax exempt.
- 36:42We don't pay for the public schools.
- 36:43That's correct. We pay gas tax and all kinds of
- 36:45other taxes on our stuff here. Are you off topic though?
- 36:48The fact is public schools, should not teach lies.
- 36:52Don't teach lies. Teach truth.
- 36:56Get the lies out of the book and you're left with nothing to
- 36:58support your theory. It's a lie to teach the kids.
- 37:01The Earth is billions of years old.
- 37:03There's over 100 ways to prove. It cannot be billions of years
- 37:06old, but you guys keep teaching it because that is what you have
- 37:09to have it right side up time. I know full, well, your amoeba
- 37:14is our algae State and algae. Did it right?
- 37:18Yeah. Okay.
- 37:19Things don't transform into different monsters.
- 37:22Like this isn't Pokemon. I have no idea what Pokémon is,
- 37:27nor do I care. But well, okay, wait.
- 37:29When you say one amoeba turns into a dog, a one animal doesn't
- 37:33turn into another animal. It's popular.
- 37:36Evolution is about population genetics.
- 37:39So you have a population of one type of organism and overtime.
- 37:44It develops into different populations because of natural
- 37:49selection that's macro-evolution.
- 37:52So it's not one animal just changing into a different animal
- 37:55but Think you're framing it like that because you want to make
- 37:58Evolution sound stupid and then say You Can Make It in America.
- 38:02Yeah, but AJ, AJ, you said the population populations develop
- 38:09over time. This is your belief.
- 38:12This never been observed. You certainly can't use any
- 38:15fossils as evidence in any court of law.
- 38:17They would honest, court of law. They would laugh at you by
- 38:20saying look, you found bones in the dirt.
- 38:21You found fossils. You don't know.
- 38:22They had any children. You should have contributed no
- 38:26animal today produces other than its kind Every Creature observe
- 38:30plant or animal or insect produces, the same kind as
- 38:34itself. Mosquitoes may be mosquitoes
- 38:36without exception. Now, you can believe that over
- 38:39time, it could do it, but that's where that's your.
- 38:43That's your Sky daddy time billions of years will solve the
- 38:47problem. So is this program is a
- 38:50single-celled organism. The same kind is a multi-celled
- 38:53organism, I don't know. Is it actually a colony?
- 38:56Is it a cluster of cells working together?
- 38:58And it's not ending because, because in the colony, each cell
- 39:02can break off and live on its own.
- 39:04But in the example, I gave eat the cells, can't live on their
- 39:08own and it got new traits like the extracellular Matrix that
- 39:13binds the new cells together and it was also a beneficial
- 39:18mutation or it was beneficial a benefit answer.
- 39:21My question AJ, can this new You don't want to call it a colony.
- 39:26Can this new multicellular organism?
- 39:28Yeah. Can this new multicellular
- 39:30organism produce with another multicellular organism?
- 39:33Just like it and make multicellular organisms or do
- 39:37they have to start with individual cells every time?
- 39:41Well, that sounds like sexual reproduction which is not
- 39:44something that algae does. But the example in that I gave
- 39:49in the lab it was a single celled going to a multicellular
- 39:53one. So yeah.
- 39:54Started with a single cell just like you did in your mother's
- 39:57womb. You start off as a single celled
- 39:59and you added new you divided and added new cells until you
- 40:03became you know all cells you have today and it's the same
- 40:07thing with Evolution that's like evo-devo, always knows got
- 40:11Evolution. Come on going from a single
- 40:13sperm and egg to a human being is following an incredibly
- 40:16complex code. Go to the soda General Motors,
- 40:19they take a bunch of parts coming into one end, and out
- 40:21comes a car, on the other end because a lot of intelligent
- 40:23people are poor GM's a bad example.
- 40:25Uh-huh. Okay, you're going to call your
- 40:29example earlier. I forget what brands of car.
- 40:31You said, like, GMC and Honda, you said light heavy, right?
- 40:36Look how so Leonard. Okay, they both share the same
- 40:38lug nuts, but those didn't have a common designer, they had
- 40:42different designers. So the lug nuts on a Chevy and
- 40:46the lug nuts on a GMC. Where had different designers?
- 40:49Yeah, they didn't have a common designer like you said, so it's
- 40:52a bad example. And also when you talk about you
- 40:56know this is an evolution, this isn't evidence for common
- 41:00ancestry, it's evidence for a common ancestor, I would like to
- 41:04know what, where you get that conclusion from it.
- 41:07It sounds to me like, it's just something you say because they
- 41:10both have the word common in the phrase, so it sounds kind of,
- 41:13you know, like Hit the in smart, but you're just making an
- 41:16assumption. The reason that scientists have
- 41:19proof of common ancestry is the genetics.
- 41:21You don't have anything like that to back up common designer.
- 41:24The proof that we have is billions of farmers for hundreds
- 41:29of years. Observing you plant, corn corn,
- 41:32grows you cross your cows and you get a baby cow.
- 41:35I mean every Farmer on the planet will tell you that
- 41:37happens with all the plants with all the animals there we have
- 41:41lots of observation of the very A shins being limited and being
- 41:47the same. Obviously, kind, I think there
- 41:50are 60 varieties of oak trees. Now they might have had a common
- 41:53ancestor, called an oak tree, but you want me to have to pay
- 41:57to teach the kids at the Oaks. We're not from here.
- 42:00What about bears? There are eight varieties of
- 42:02bears. I don't know if they all had a
- 42:04common ancestor or not, God might have made four or five or
- 42:06six different kinds of beers my grizzly bears.
- 42:10Grizzly bears, polar bears, panda bears.
- 42:12What about koala bear out there are Koala Bears.
- 42:14The same kind as a grizzly bear. I don't know if somebody,
- 42:18somebody gave it the name, koala bear, I doubt it.
- 42:20I don't think koalas in the same in the bear category of it safe
- 42:23but this is training at a net. Go back to my question.
- 42:26Your algae that developed the ability to live and work
- 42:28together in what you called a multicellular organism.
- 42:33How do you get? Another one of those.
- 42:34You have to start from scratch every time with individual algae
- 42:38or can they somehow make a Colony into a car not a colony
- 42:42can. This can this new organism
- 42:43produce another organism? Or does it have to start over
- 42:46with algae every time AJ? Well, I don't know off the top
- 42:51of my head, I would assume that it can start with either a
- 42:58single cell or a another like small multicellular one that
- 43:05adds cells do it, but I would assume that it it divides and
- 43:09that At new single cell. One can produce a multicellular
- 43:13organism but this hasn't been observed in the wild.
- 43:17This example of claiming to bonus algae, this was only done
- 43:20in the lab and so I can't really speculate about that.
- 43:26Well, if it's only done in the lab, don't you see a problem
- 43:29here? Because this is not natural
- 43:32selection, this is artificial selection.
- 43:35This is not nothing natural about it and that you rely on
- 43:38that one example, to say we should all teach that the
- 43:42amoebas turned to humans and Wales over billions of years of
- 43:45Carl. Give you quadrillions of years.
- 43:47If you want, we don't observe it.
- 43:49It's a religious belief, it's something you believe in, which
- 43:52is fine. Keep your religion at home.
- 43:54I don't want to pay for it to be taught.
- 43:56That's all well, you don't. Yeah, there's all kinds of
- 44:01things and it goes into the public schools besides property
- 44:04tax and I've played plenty of paid plenty of property tax over
- 44:08the year. So if you're missing the point
- 44:10completely, all the parents are required to pay to teach that
- 44:14the amoeba turn to a whale, that's what the chart show.
- 44:18I've got all the pictures right from the textbook.
- 44:20I show it in my seminar, you've seen it and you're dancing
- 44:23around the obvious. God said, they'll bring forth
- 44:26after their kind. Do these multicellular algae
- 44:30things, do they bring forth or is it a dead end?
- 44:33You got to start over with single cells every time and I
- 44:35already know the answer. You got to start over with
- 44:37single cells every time. So you haven't done a thing, you
- 44:41created a colony, I'll call it a colony that built a wall around
- 44:43themselves to protect themselves.
- 44:45Okay. Interesting Mom.
- 44:46It's not a colony and I'm not relying on simply one example.
- 44:50There is a lot of these because you got to have billions of
- 44:54examples to prove your religion, not one or two.
- 44:58Well, the genetics, the genetic show that you can follow, you
- 45:02can follow it back like a road map to see that animals that are
- 45:06alive today, have common ancestry with each other.
- 45:09The same as you would look at a DNA test to see that you are
- 45:14related to your mom and dad. Like I did 23andMe and you know
- 45:20they they got a saliva sample from me but they didn't ask me,
- 45:24you know, what religion I was, it had nothing to do with
- 45:27religion. So common ancestry can be proven
- 45:31by genetics and that proves Evolution but there's also slow
- 45:36down now. Common.
- 45:37Aunt. Don't you don't guess Galaxy
- 45:39this I'm calling hate. You asked me to give several
- 45:42topics but yeah I know what the DNA that you had, this 23andMe
- 45:48tests showed that you came from your parents.
- 45:51I could have told you that without the test, okay?
- 45:54So I think we're your parents who my parents were.
- 45:58Well, are you did they conclude your parents were human, or were
- 46:01they something other than human they're human?
- 46:05They were human. How about the grandparents you
- 46:06think they were human? Sure.
- 46:09If you go back 10 billion Generations was that an amoeba I
- 46:18don't know, but I would say no, it wasn't an amoeba.
- 46:22But again, you're intentionally going over this long period of
- 46:27time to compare things that are way different because you don't
- 46:31have a strong enough argument to argue your side.
- 46:35So you have to instead use these tactics of making Evolution seem
- 46:39Silly by saying you know oh look an amoeba.
- 46:42Okay, I'm a human. I'm a multicellular organism but
- 46:45if If you go all the way back, I wasn't an amoeba but I just
- 46:49showed you that a single celled organism can turn into a
- 46:51multicellular one, which is exactly what you're describing.
- 46:55An amoeba being the ancestor of a human or a eukaryotic cell
- 47:01being single celled organism being the ancestor.
- 47:05Okay, well, we'll take your algae instead of an amoeba.
- 47:07Then why did the DNA and third 23andMe show that your
- 47:10great-great-great great-great-great.
- 47:11Grandpa was an algae. The algae that you example, you
- 47:16gave turned into a new, we'll call it a new organism a bunch
- 47:19of algae cells together. So don you kindly why it's a new
- 47:24kind. Okay.
- 47:26How do you get the next one? Do they start over every time
- 47:30with single cell? I I described how multicellular
- 47:34algae reproduce early. Yeah, they each one's got to
- 47:37start over every time. The DNA code.
- 47:41You want to? I can't believe you.
- 47:42Evolution is want to use DNA. You should be embarrassed.
- 47:45DNA is the most complex molecule in the universe.
- 47:48There's no molecule more complex than a single DNA, strand.
- 47:52And they are incredibly tiny. It's a gross oversimplification
- 47:56to say it's only got four parts ATC atg.
- 48:00Each of those parts is incredibly complicated.
- 48:03You have probably 37. Trillion cells in your body.
- 48:07Each cell contains these DNA, the gametes only have 23 but the
- 48:12rest have 46 chromosomes. One drop of blood would have 5
- 48:17million red blood cells in one. Drop 5 million, each of those
- 48:23cells contains this whole unbelievable code.
- 48:27You know, how much how many people has taken over the years
- 48:30to reduce the size of a computer from the size of this room down
- 48:33to a chip? You can hold Your finger Around
- 48:36Your Finger, they've taken a whole lot of smart people to do
- 48:39that. And the DNA code is a trillion
- 48:42times more complicated than the biggest computer we've got.
- 48:45Average human has 50 trillion cells in their body but it would
- 48:49only fill two tablespoons. That's the incredible code
- 48:53stretched out. Each DNA molecules about six
- 48:56feet, long tie them all together, the DNA code from your
- 48:59body. Each one about 2 meters long,
- 49:01little over six feet. We go.
- 49:03Thirteen trillion miles. All that's in you AJ.
- 49:07Why can't you say? Wow, God, you are smart.
- 49:10You want to give credit to an algae for making this incredible
- 49:14code. I'm baffled and you guys not
- 49:18what I said and I'm not sure where you get to God or Jesus
- 49:22from the information that you just presented.
- 49:24But DNA is not like a computer code.
- 49:27I can tell you that because DNA can be redundant where you can
- 49:32change the one of the letters or multiple letters of the sea.
- 49:35Atg code and nothing happens to the organism but with writing
- 49:39computer code like C++ or Java script.
- 49:42A lot of times if you have one bracket or period out of place,
- 49:45it can completely screw up the program that you're trying to
- 49:47write. So, So, they're not the same
- 49:53stop and think about what you just said.
- 49:55One little mistake your mutations that you guys rely on,
- 49:58no, in the computer transfer that the code, it quits working.
- 50:01Yeah, in computer code but not in DNA.
- 50:03Oh, okay. Bill Gates, Bill, Gates said,
- 50:09DNA of like software program, but it's much more complex than
- 50:12anything. We've been able to design IBM
- 50:16models. Its newest computers after, you
- 50:18know, Bill Gates, the known atheist.
- 50:21Yeah, he won't be when he dies. Okay, so there's a cool million,
- 50:27a code contains half of the contents of all the academic
- 50:31libraries in, America goes Way, Beyond terabytes and petabytes
- 50:37to exabytes Yoda B and Zeta bikes.
- 50:39All the words, ever? Uttered by anyone who ever lived
- 50:43would amount to five exabytes. Your DNA code has more than
- 50:46that. If you typed out, the DNA code
- 50:49in your body, AJ you'd have enough books to fill Grand
- 50:52Canyon 78 times. And you really think it happened
- 50:57by chance? I'm baffled.
- 50:59See, I don't have a problem. Saying, God, I want to praise
- 51:02you. Your fear of I'm fearfully and
- 51:04wonderfully made. I can look at a complex thing,
- 51:07like a, my Swiss army knife and say, wow.
- 51:11This is pretty cool, it's pretty interesting complicated.
- 51:14Well made, I like this thing, I would never dream of saying,
- 51:17wow, the Swiss are stupid, it happened by chance.
- 51:20All the guys were pretty smart to put this thing together.
- 51:22Like they did you talk about computers?
- 51:24I chance you just I mean that it wasn't created by a deity, then
- 51:29I guess so, but I wouldn't say that the life on Earth came by
- 51:34chance. Evolution is a natural process.
- 51:38It's not something that happens by random chance.
- 51:41It's driven by the environment DNA is plastic to the
- 51:45environment. So like you said, animals like
- 51:48birds, that have a larger Mass are going to do better or
- 51:52animals that have thicker fur going to do better in cold.
- 51:55Climates because the environment changes.
- 51:57What animal will do better there.
- 51:59So that's not random chance. That's pretty logical.
- 52:02No, no AJ. Natural selection, select once
- 52:06Evolution create anything. It's selected.
- 52:10It only selectively that it created.
- 52:12Anything real Club manager for equal time.
- 52:20Go ahead. Yes.
- 52:22All natural selection did was select the bigger.
- 52:25Each sparrows to survive in the north, it didn't create the
- 52:28sparrow and didn't turn him into a whale.
- 52:31He didn't turn him into a seagull.
- 52:33They're still a sparrow, they're just now life slightly larger
- 52:37because the bigger ones were able to survive and make the
- 52:39next generation of babies, which are probably.
- 52:41Some of the more of those would be bigger every Farmer in the
- 52:43planet. Does this to get cows that give
- 52:45more milk or cows. They give more beef cows that
- 52:48can stand the heat cows that can stand the cold.
- 52:50They've developed, who knows how many varieties are cows.
- 52:52Now, probably a couple of hundred and they're always cow.
- 52:55Ow, then it's so the sparrow natural selection works great.
- 52:58But it only selects you guys want to turn it into a creative
- 53:02process, it doesn't create a thing.
- 53:04Sorry, strike three you're out. Go ahead.
- 53:07Okay, that's fine. Well, hand it back to you AJ
- 53:12equal time. Go ahead.
- 53:14Yeah. I don't, I don't think anybody,
- 53:17I certainly didn't claim that natural syrup, natural selection
- 53:20creates things. It's simply a mechanism of
- 53:23evolution. It's one part.
- 53:25Like sexual selection, or genetic drift or anything like
- 53:29that. So you can't just claim that
- 53:32natural selection creates organisms.
- 53:36It's just deciding or it just shows which animals do better in
- 53:41which environments because they adapted to their environment.
- 53:44Which also kind of shows that in my opinion, they weren't created
- 53:47for their environment. Otherwise they wouldn't have to
- 53:49adapt. You would just have animals put
- 53:52directly in the environment they belonged in.
- 53:58Are you going to Q&A now? Or should I respond more to
- 54:01that? No.
- 54:02Yeah, go ahead, dr. Holden, you can respond to that.
- 54:05Well, yeah, he's welcome to believe this, but why weren't
- 54:08they create? I think the fact that God gave
- 54:10the original cow, the gene code, which is incredibly complex to
- 54:14allow it to adapt to milk. Cows are dairy cows Milk, milk
- 54:19cows or beef. Cows is pretty cool but it still
- 54:23a cow there. That's all we've ever seen.
- 54:26Is variations within the same kind.
- 54:29They've been trying to work with dogs to produce smaller dogs or
- 54:33bigger dogs. And they spent hundreds and
- 54:34thousands of dollars to make a dog like a chihuahua that's
- 54:38completely useless and wouldn't survive two minutes out in the
- 54:41woods? They didn't create anything,
- 54:44natural selection, turn all the dogs loose in the woods with in
- 54:48One year, 95% of those that man has created would be dead.
- 54:54The Hawks would have a Heyday with the Chihuahua.
- 54:59The bigger ones because they can't run fast enough.
- 55:02The ones with the wrinkled skin, although the can't even see
- 55:05anything, that 95% of the dogs man has created with a lot of
- 55:10work and time and energy, wouldn't survive, natural
- 55:13selection would put them all back to a wolf, like animal been
- 55:16a wolf, and a dog, probably have a common ancestor, but it does
- 55:19mean it's an amoeba or an algae. Okay.
- 55:23Can I ask? Why is it that you would think
- 55:26if you took all of the skulls of different dogs?
- 55:29Like a doberman, a Rottweiler and a chihuahua and even a
- 55:34teacup Chihuahua. All of those are the same kind,
- 55:36but if you look at the skulls of like Australopithecus afarensis
- 55:41and sediba and you lay those out all the way up to Homo Sapien,
- 55:46you would say that one is ape kind and one is the mankind.
- 55:50Those aren't the same kind even The dog skulls look, radically
- 55:53different and the human to Australopithecus skulls look
- 55:58very similar. Well, with dogs, we see not only
- 56:03the skulls, we can see the animals, they can produce the
- 56:05animals. A friend of mine said, we have
- 56:07dog kennel. We've raised dogs 400 years, my
- 56:10grandfather started the kennel. I'm third generation.
- 56:12He said I can tell you right now.
- 56:14We could tart. We give us 20.
- 56:15Generic dogs. Pick any dog you want, you know
- 56:18100 years with selective breeding.
- 56:19We can make everything from a Chihuahua to a Great Dane all
- 56:22over again. In 100 Years of selective,
- 56:24breeding you get a creature like an amoeba with a much shorter.
- 56:26Generation span of 20 minutes. They you know, get born grow up,
- 56:30get married in. Two minutes and have their own
- 56:32babies that you still only see them produce amoeba.
- 56:37That's it. There's no, it doesn't happen.
- 56:40Now, I love the the great faith. You guys have, you have
- 56:44incredible faith in this natural selection process, you probably
- 56:47more faith and most Christians I know of but it's not science.
- 56:52And the public the purpose of this debate was should Evolution
- 56:55be taught in public schools. Depends, what you mean by that
- 56:58word but we shouldn't teach lies to promote the theory.
- 57:01We sort of get back on topic to say that these algae for slowly
- 57:05develop a group ability to work together, but you got to start
- 57:08over every time to get a new whatever you call the colada,
- 57:10but thing up class time indominus, okay?
- 57:16It's still algae is still this. It didn't, that's not evidence
- 57:21that that's going to ever eventually turn into a whale or
- 57:23a mosquito or a pine tree but you guys want me to pay to have
- 57:27that talk to the kids like it's part of science, I'm sorry, it's
- 57:30not Go start a private school and teach that to anybody that
- 57:34wants to pay income. Learn it.
- 57:36But the public schools, if therefore the public should
- 57:39teach science, ignore the origins, topic, altogether.
- 57:43The teacher can say I'm sorry we can't talk about creation or
- 57:46Evolution. Let's just talk about science,
- 57:48this is the deltoid, this is the bicep, this is the triceps.
- 57:52Memorize it for the test kit. You have it.
- 57:55How did we get it? I don't know.
- 57:56Don't know, don't care. It doesn't matter.
- 57:58Memorize it. That's science.
- 58:01What do we know? We know dogs produce dogs?
- 58:04We do not know that the algae turned to a dog over over
- 58:07billions of years. Like you said you believe that
- 58:10but you don't admit that it's a religious belief.
- 58:12I'm I can't understand why you guys can't just admit man.
- 58:15I do have a religion. Don't I?
- 58:17Yeah, you do. If if you want to teach science
- 58:22in the science classes, then shouldn't we teach what a
- 58:26majority of scientists agree on which is that evolution is a
- 58:29fact and a scientific theory that should be taught in
- 58:33schools. That's what the scientists think
- 58:35you should look at the history of science, they've taught all
- 58:37kinds of crazy things, over the generations that later proved to
- 58:40be not true show. No science means knowledge.
- 58:44Now in a religion class if you want to teach all the different
- 58:46religions of the world and what they believe like the induced.
- 58:49If you drink, the pee straight coming straight out of the cow,
- 58:51you get special, holy power. So we should teach science in
- 58:56science class but science has been wrong a bunch of times and
- 58:59we shouldn't trust scientists about.
- 59:00Is that what you're saying? No, I love science.
- 59:03I like sandwiches. We can trust real science but
- 59:05all you guys have to promote your religion of evolution is
- 59:08lies. The embryo does not have gill
- 59:11slits. The whale does not have a
- 59:13vestigial Provost nobody's ever seen mutations, which are
- 59:17mistakes in the gene code, which like you said, where the
- 59:19computer code will often times. Stop it.
- 59:21One bracket 1. Wrong spot.
- 59:23Bingo stop Program. I agree.
- 59:25The DNA code is able to work around.
- 59:27That is so complex. It can tolerate some mistakes
- 59:30and usually correct some over a generation or two and they might
- 59:33come right back the Cave Fish. The fish that have lived in
- 59:37caves where there's no light have slowly lost their eyes.
- 59:40That's a loss. You don't have any examples of
- 59:43anything, gaining new information.
- 59:46None why hasn't anybody ever evolved eyes on the back of
- 59:49their head? That would be really handy.
- 59:52How many of ever wished you had eyes on the back of your head.
- 59:55Come on now. A mother ever evolve three arms
- 1:00:00so they can hold the baby and cook the food and close the
- 1:00:02fridge door. At the same time, it doesn't
- 1:00:04happen. AJ.
- 1:00:06It just doesn't happen. You can believe it all you want,
- 1:00:09and you have great faith, but I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- 1:00:11That's all you have is a faith that your algae is going to
- 1:00:15evidence that that everything came from a common ancestor.
- 1:00:18You really, really need to stop and think about that.
- 1:00:21I'm going to jump in real quick AJ.
- 1:00:22We've got just 40 seconds left on the the discussion portion
- 1:00:26age. Why don't you respond to
- 1:00:28whatever you'd like to from Kent?
- 1:00:31And then we're going to jump into three-minute closing
- 1:00:34statements, and then an audience Q&A for as long as we can, so,
- 1:00:38AJ go ahead, okay? I would say, the reason that
- 1:00:43those silly things didn't happen is because evolution is about
- 1:00:48what an organism or population of organisms needs to survive.
- 1:00:51Not just, what might come in handy.
- 1:00:54And as for a beneficial mutation, I can give View.
- 1:00:56An example of a resistance to malaria evolving.
- 1:01:02Not a resistance to our, I'm sorry, sickle cell, anemia.
- 1:01:06And this isn't a trait where you have, you know, the the the
- 1:01:13weakness of malaria. This is you're born with a
- 1:01:16resistance to it, so I'll just sacrifice the rest of my time.
- 1:01:22We can go to Q&A well. So, that looks like it concludes
- 1:01:28the discussion portion, but I want you guys to kind of wrap
- 1:01:31things up in terms of a three-minute statement, and then
- 1:01:35we'll go into a Q&A so AJ. You did start.
- 1:01:38So technically, you have up to three minutes right now, if
- 1:01:41you'd like to to wrap up your points and in the form of a
- 1:01:44concluding statement, then dr. Holden gets 3 minutes.
- 1:01:47Then we'll get to a few questions from the audience.
- 1:01:49So AJ, go ahead. Okay, well, this is my my first
- 1:01:54debate. So I'd like to thank Kent for,
- 1:01:57you know, accepting this and I know he's a lot more experience
- 1:02:00than I am but I think we might have gotten a bit off topic but
- 1:02:05that's kind of happens in these debates were you know, a lot of
- 1:02:08topics are flying back and forth but in my opinion if you want to
- 1:02:12teach science in science classes then you should look to what the
- 1:02:17scientific consensus is. You should look to what the
- 1:02:20scientists agree on. And what their opinion is on the
- 1:02:24topic, which is should Evolution be taught in public schools and
- 1:02:28they would say yes. Now, I'm not as qualified as, as
- 1:02:34those biological and life scientists would be.
- 1:02:37So, I defer to their opinion, whereas Kent is challenging, the
- 1:02:41scientific consensus. So he has a huge burden of proof
- 1:02:45if he wants to knock down the scientific consensus.
- 1:02:49And like I said earlier, He can't really complain about
- 1:02:53having pay for the public schools teaching this because
- 1:02:58he, you know, friends of ministry which is tax-exempt, he
- 1:03:02can have his disagreements but like I said he's disagreeing
- 1:03:05with 100 Years of scientific evidence consensus and
- 1:03:14scientific knowledge. So I don't think arguing that
- 1:03:19humans came from a rock. Or talking about whales having
- 1:03:24babies is going to refute that. I think you'll have to do a
- 1:03:27little bit better than that. How much time do I have left?
- 1:03:31As if di you got a minute and 20 seconds, okay.
- 1:03:37And the scientific consensus about evolution is that if you
- 1:03:43look at the genetic data, we can tell that organisms are related.
- 1:03:49Just like A family tree just like the genetic data that would
- 1:03:56tell you that who your cousins and your parents and your
- 1:03:59grandparents are or what. Ethnicity.
- 1:04:01Your from like I did 23andMe and it tells you what country you
- 1:04:05have the most genetic data from. And we can follow this back back
- 1:04:10in time to tell that all life on Earth has common ancestry.
- 1:04:16And yeah, I'm just gonna, I'm going to end it there.
- 1:04:21No problem. No problem.
- 1:04:23So that was your three-minute concluding statement.
- 1:04:25Thank you so much, atheist Junior.
- 1:04:27We're going to hand it over to Kent.
- 1:04:30You have three minutes for a concluding statement.
- 1:04:33Well, obviously the argument he gave his closing here.
- 1:04:36The argument from majority opinion would fall apart in any
- 1:04:40person with any brain under Muslim countries.
- 1:04:44The majority of believe if you kill a Christian, that's a
- 1:04:47wonderful thing. That's how you get to heaven.
- 1:04:49Of course, you can get that, you know, you have to kill the
- 1:04:50infidel. Else, the majority opinion in
- 1:04:53those countries and there's a whole lot of Muslims on.
- 1:04:54They're making more is majority opinion.
- 1:04:58Wow. Then there must be right in
- 1:05:00communist countries. Look I mean look how they
- 1:05:02enforce communism with the point of a gun.
- 1:05:04Look, what's happening in China or Russia or other communist
- 1:05:07countries. You want to go by majority
- 1:05:09Hitler. 55 million people, followed Adolf Hitler.
- 1:05:13Wow, it was a great guy. He, we know he was wrong but the
- 1:05:16majority of people in Germany, thought he was a great guy.
- 1:05:19So the argument from majority opinion, Flat on its face.
- 1:05:23What is truth? The truth is algae, produce
- 1:05:27algae. And if you can get some to work
- 1:05:29together in a laboratory, So what it doesn't prove anything
- 1:05:36that's your point, though. The DNA is you rely on DNA?
- 1:05:40The DNA code is I pointed out is unbelievably complex.
- 1:05:44The DNA code is mind-boggling, it has to unzip, make a copy of
- 1:05:49itself and then zip back together.
- 1:05:53Study DNA for heaven. Say it's unreal.
- 1:05:57And you yet you want to believe it happened by chance.
- 1:06:00Okay. I just don't have enough Faith
- 1:06:03to believe that and obviously AJ, we need to go along with
- 1:06:07Pascal's wager here. It still holds true if you are
- 1:06:10right and I am wrong, I haven't lost a thing.
- 1:06:12I've lived a wonderful life. I enjoy life.
- 1:06:15And I could die. Now go back to dust.
- 1:06:18Okay, that's fine. But if I'm right and you're
- 1:06:21wrong, when you die your face God and go to hell, I don't want
- 1:06:24that. You want to risk at risk that
- 1:06:26gamble or because of your algae. Okay, I don't think that's very
- 1:06:30wise though. You can have my time.
- 1:06:32Let's get back to Q&A time brother.
- 1:06:34Okay? Okay, I appreciate that
- 1:06:36concluding statement, dr. Hoeven and great debate.
- 1:06:39Gentlemen, we've got I've got way too many questions here.
- 1:06:42So what I'm going to do is I'm going to put a timer on the Q&A
- 1:06:45will do Teen minutes, and we'll get through as many questions as
- 1:06:48we can. Once we hit that 15-minute Mark,
- 1:06:51we will call it a night. So great job to the both of you.
- 1:06:55And let's go with, I'm going to pick out the most relevant
- 1:06:59questions to the debate. Topic looks like there's an
- 1:07:03after show on logical plausible probables Channel immediately
- 1:07:09following this debate. So thanks so much from steadfast
- 1:07:14and easy. He says Thank you for a great
- 1:07:16debate, ten-dollar super Chad. I appreciate that as well as one
- 1:07:22God is nowhere. $25 Super Chat. I appreciate the support.
- 1:07:28He says it's more of a comment. He says DNA equals medium Gene
- 1:07:33equals code Source equals God. If you guys want to respond to
- 1:07:38that, it's not really a question.
- 1:07:40Just super chat that came in. How many?
- 1:07:45I don't see how that adds up? It seems like you're just making
- 1:07:48an assertion. Okay.
- 1:07:53Well I'd say how it adds up if I'm walking along the beach and
- 1:07:55I find a calculator watch on the beach, I think it would be very
- 1:07:59logical to assume somebody designed it rather than to
- 1:08:03assume it washed up on the beach or the sand waves, created it
- 1:08:07out of the sand grains. I just don't think that's
- 1:08:09logical. So I think it's logical to look
- 1:08:11at the DNA and say, wow, this must have had a really smart
- 1:08:14Shiner. I wonder who it was.
- 1:08:16Was it Allah or Buddha or Jehovah?
- 1:08:18That's a different argument. It was all about a designer,
- 1:08:21it's way more complicated to any code with man has ever written.
- 1:08:26Had to have a designer. I don't have a problem believing
- 1:08:29that praise Allah. I'm gonna go ahead.
- 1:08:33I'm gonna jump to this super chat here, which is actually a
- 1:08:36question for AJ. So this question comes from Alec
- 1:08:40cocks. Thank you so much for the Super
- 1:08:42Chat. He says, question for a Jay, can
- 1:08:44I sell survive without glucose? Where did the glucose come from
- 1:08:48to help? Make the first cell?
- 1:08:52Can a cell survive without glucose?
- 1:08:55That seems like two questions. I would, I would say no, because
- 1:08:59that's how it gets energy. What was the second part of it?
- 1:09:03He says, where did the glucose come from to make the first
- 1:09:07cell? To make the first cell ever.
- 1:09:14I'm not sure if the very first living cell use glucose.
- 1:09:18So I'm just going to say that, I don't know.
- 1:09:21Okay, I appreciate that answer and question dr.
- 1:09:24Hovind, if you wanted a response as well, go ahead.
- 1:09:27Well obviously I would say that the Creator designed it, where
- 1:09:29you've got everything with everything.
- 1:09:31It needs you know, the first living cell would have to have a
- 1:09:33lot more than glucose. It would have to have space to
- 1:09:36live in. It would have to have energy to
- 1:09:37have to have a proper temperature.
- 1:09:39After surviving sure every cell would die at some extreme
- 1:09:42temperature up or down. So there's and then it's got to
- 1:09:45have a food source and a method of respiration.
- 1:09:49A method of digestion, a method of excretion, there's a lot
- 1:09:54once, L was hell, is more complex than the space shuttle.
- 1:10:00I just can't believe that you can't see it.
- 1:10:03Had to have a designer. Okay.
- 1:10:06Okay. Thanks for that response can and
- 1:10:08since it was your question, AJ to be fair will give you the
- 1:10:11last word on that one. Go ahead.
- 1:10:12Yeah, I don't know if Kent has ever seen a diagram of a space
- 1:10:17shuttle but if if I compare to sell to that, I would say the
- 1:10:20space shuttle is far more complicated.
- 1:10:22But yeah, I I'm not sure if they the question was talking about
- 1:10:29if the very first cell that ever existed or I do are the one of
- 1:10:35one of the very first cells that ever existed use glucose, or if
- 1:10:39they talking about Out modern single-cell organisms so I'm not
- 1:10:44sure about that one. Okay well I appreciate it.
- 1:10:48We got a Super Chat that came in Martin Luther.
- 1:10:50Thank you so much. He just says talc at Jeremy
- 1:10:52says, hi brother and thank you for your ministry so I
- 1:10:56appreciate dietary Jeremy. Let's see here.
- 1:11:00Okay, so next question is for both so whoever wants to start
- 1:11:03on this one. This question comes in from Art
- 1:11:05Van van delay. He says, question for both.
- 1:11:09With does the fossil record show?
- 1:11:11Microevolution Go ahead AJ. Yes I would say I would say that
- 1:11:20it does because you can see going up from the bottom layers
- 1:11:26to higher layers. You can see small incremental
- 1:11:29changes from one from one organism or one index fossil to
- 1:11:34a different one. So if you're looking at a like a
- 1:11:40crab that's in one layer I'm just using that.
- 1:11:44Random example you can see changes from the lower layer and
- 1:11:49this is consistent all the way up the organisms become more
- 1:11:53complex. They're the most simple at the
- 1:11:55bottom and they become more complex as you go up in the
- 1:11:58geologic column, go ahead account.
- 1:12:06Well, therefore there's no such thing as a fossil record, there
- 1:12:09are fossils. I've got thousands of in our
- 1:12:11Museum here. There's no question.
- 1:12:13There are fossils. They're not a record, they don't
- 1:12:15have a date on them, they don't you don't, don't don't talk and
- 1:12:18that. He he mentioned something that's
- 1:12:19a key thing. The bottom layer up to the top
- 1:12:22layer AJ, all of the layers on the Earth.
- 1:12:24All of them are the same age, all of them.
- 1:12:28If the top layers younger, where's this coming from outer
- 1:12:30space is maneuverable. I'm headed to the Earth to
- 1:12:34create these newly. All of the layers, were a shake
- 1:12:36and shuffling of existing material.
- 1:12:39Of course, different animal settle into different layers
- 1:12:41because of body density, because of habitat.
- 1:12:43I bet most of the Sure found together because clams hang out
- 1:12:46together. They don't hang out with
- 1:12:47mosquitoes. So of course the fast line found
- 1:12:50in similar layer but with you. Okay, let's do.
- 1:12:54That's okay, let's jump to the next question.
- 1:12:56We got so many questions coming in.
- 1:12:58It's hard to keep up to choose super Chad's here.
- 1:13:00George Bond. Thank you so much.
- 1:13:02Brother says sfts. Kids need a ya Keepin, my put my
- 1:13:05kids through college. I appreciate it.
- 1:13:08We got another Super Chat for atheist jr.
- 1:13:12I guess you're going to have an after So, we've got four after
- 1:13:15shows. Apparently, so chats came in one
- 1:13:19for AJ, logical, plausible, probable, oh, tangelo and Amy.
- 1:13:25So here's a question for dr. Joven call me.
- 1:13:30Emo asks, what's allowing organisms within the same?
- 1:13:35Kind to share, common ancestry, and what's preventing them from
- 1:13:40sharing common ancestry with the kinds closest to them.
- 1:13:45Well, there's seem to be genetic barriers.
- 1:13:48Any farmer will tell you, you can cross a jackass and a horse
- 1:13:52and get a mule, but then it's sterile you run into a dead end
- 1:13:56almost. You can cross a sheep and a goat
- 1:13:58and get a geep. But again, it's sterile, you get
- 1:14:01a dead end so I think a sheep and a goat.
- 1:14:03Are they look similar in hundreds of ways?
- 1:14:05And they act similar in hundreds of ways?
- 1:14:07And it might even taste similar. I don't know.
- 1:14:09But that doesn't prove a mosquito and sheep are related.
- 1:14:15What we've observed is, most of the variations that happen, if
- 1:14:18you get too far to the extreme, they go extinct, you might get a
- 1:14:23bigger and bigger dog, but at some point, it becomes clumsy
- 1:14:26and can't can't take care of itself.
- 1:14:28They've been trying to get bigger dogs for a long time.
- 1:14:30Why don't you get a bigger? Dog, is Dog, as big as an
- 1:14:32elephant. There are mammals as big as an
- 1:14:35elephant, you know, like an elephant.
- 1:14:37So there seems to be a limit to the genetic variation.
- 1:14:40Seems to be limited. They've been trying to get
- 1:14:42smaller mammals dog down to the size of a Chihuahua.
- 1:14:46Okay. Why don't they get one?
- 1:14:47The size of a hamster. There's a limit somewhere in
- 1:14:52there. It seems to be a genetic barrier
- 1:14:54and I think every farmer will tell you.
- 1:14:56If you get too far away from the original ordinary dog or cow, or
- 1:15:00whatever you're dealing with is probably going to be not going
- 1:15:03to survive. Well, in the environment, you
- 1:15:05got to babysit it and you farmers.
- 1:15:07Ray's specialized grapes for instance.
- 1:15:09He got to put them in a greenhouse and babysit him and
- 1:15:11make sure they don't get it. Got to get the right temperature
- 1:15:13of the right food, they die easy.
- 1:15:15All we've observed every Farmer in the history of humanity.
- 1:15:18Will tell you variations happen but they're limited.
- 1:15:22And the further you get away from the norm, the more problems
- 1:15:25you're going to have you don't babysit that you wha wha he
- 1:15:28gone. Thank you for that answer.
- 1:15:32Kent AJ, if you had a quick response, go ahead.
- 1:15:36Yeah, you said that the you you bring forth the donkey from the
- 1:15:42horse, but I thought animals brought forth after their kind,
- 1:15:45but the mule, the mule can't bring forth anymore because it's
- 1:15:48sterile. So I'm a bit confused on that
- 1:15:51and obviously. Well, I would say anybody a
- 1:15:53four-year-old looking at a donkey, and a horse would
- 1:15:56probably say, you know, that's a similar kind of animal.
- 1:15:58They could both have hooves. It's not split hose, they both
- 1:16:02have hair on the outside of their body, they got a tail on
- 1:16:04the southbound in. So the I think there's lots of
- 1:16:08similarities between a donkey and horse more similarities than
- 1:16:12there are between a donkey and a bird.
- 1:16:17So the fact that they're able to breed at all is interesting.
- 1:16:21They got a different number of chromosomes 162 and 1664 if I
- 1:16:25recall, and but the I don't think there's ever been a case.
- 1:16:28Where they've been fertile. Ever, been a fertile donkey,
- 1:16:32pretty sure. Humans and chimpanzees also have
- 1:16:35a difference of only two chromosomes, but you think there
- 1:16:37are different kinds. So, Oh yeah, humans and
- 1:16:40chimpanzees and no connection whatsoever.
- 1:16:42Same designer designed him, that's a double standard.
- 1:16:46Okay. All right gentlemen.
- 1:16:49Thanks for keeping it Lively here.
- 1:16:50We got just enough time for two more questions.
- 1:16:53This one comes in from the film. Free gives a supercharged.
- 1:16:57Thanks so much for the support. Well actually, this one's more
- 1:17:00of a comment kind of directed at you atheist, Junior.
- 1:17:04So will allow you to respond. He says the very existence of
- 1:17:08DNA proves creation nature, cannot create information
- 1:17:12semiotic, sand, algorithms. They can only be created by a
- 1:17:16mind. So, AJ some thoughts on that?
- 1:17:21Well, that's an assertion nature.
- 1:17:25Does create living organisms that have DNA in it.
- 1:17:30So unless you're saying that Nature's a mind, I'm a bit
- 1:17:34confused on that. And again, it seems like you're
- 1:17:37kind of just making an assertion.
- 1:17:38So I'm going to say what's asserted without evidence can be
- 1:17:42dismissed without evidence. So I'm going to dismiss your
- 1:17:44question now. Sorry, and dr.
- 1:17:47Holden If you'd like a response, go ahead.
- 1:17:49Well, I would disagree nature, doesn't create anything.
- 1:17:53No, the animals, create babies. And then the net nature, May
- 1:17:57select certain ones to survive. If you get a really, really cold
- 1:18:01winter, you're probably going to kill off all the smaller ones
- 1:18:03that don't have enough Mass to hold their body temperature, but
- 1:18:07you're still is not going to change it to something else,
- 1:18:09natural selection, only selects it doesn't create anything.
- 1:18:13Nature is not a creative Force. All right I appreciate that
- 1:18:17response from the both you let's go right to Andrew Cummings
- 1:18:21question. I appreciate your question
- 1:18:23Andrew. He says please ask Kent if he
- 1:18:26can Define when he means by new information and contrast it with
- 1:18:31variation and modification. For example, is a wing still a
- 1:18:37modified for limb. New information.
- 1:18:43I think it's take a example of an automobile or somebody
- 1:18:46decided to add an air conditioning system to an
- 1:18:49automobile, which they did back in the 1930s or something that
- 1:18:53was new information, added to the vehicle.
- 1:18:55I don't think you're going to find any creature that's ever
- 1:18:57had new information added through reproduction.
- 1:19:00The reptiles that run around is skanks and other a great career
- 1:19:05lizards that run around probably would like to have wings to get
- 1:19:08away faster but they don't ever get them.
- 1:19:11So no new information is ever added.
- 1:19:14The dog is still a dog. The cow is still a cow human.
- 1:19:18Still have two eyes on the front.
- 1:19:20They never got the one on the back that they needed for backup
- 1:19:22camera. So it there's there are no
- 1:19:25examples of new information being added.
- 1:19:27They're only examples of information, being lost fish.
- 1:19:31Going in a cave after Generations.
- 1:19:33They're blind. Well, that's a loss.
- 1:19:35Not a game. I'm unaware of any examples.
- 1:19:38Where any any new new usable information?
- 1:19:41Has been been gained by any kind of animal certain, not in the
- 1:19:43laboratory and they've tried They can't, if you can't make it
- 1:19:49happen, it doesn't happen, sir. It doesn't happen in nature.
- 1:19:52I appreciate that response. Can't and atheist Junior.
- 1:19:55If you had a quick response go ahead well I didn't really hear
- 1:19:59a definition for information there.
- 1:20:00But if I had to Define it, I would say new genetic
- 1:20:04information is mutations causing new nucleotide sequences to
- 1:20:11form, you know, new letters in the atcg sequence.
- 1:20:15So that would be my definition. Okay, I appreciate that
- 1:20:18response. And since the question was for
- 1:20:20you, Ken will give you the last word go.
- 1:20:23Well, nobody's ever observed, this changing the letters of the
- 1:20:26alphabet around, creating something useful.
- 1:20:28That's hereditary goes bad gets passed on it would require
- 1:20:32trillions. Quadrillions quintillions of
- 1:20:34changes like that. To change an algae to a whale
- 1:20:40You're just dreaming, so religion.
- 1:20:43I've said it for years, I'll say it till I die.
- 1:20:45Evolution is a religion. It's the dumbest and most
- 1:20:47dangerous religion in the world and it is nothing but a
- 1:20:50religion. And if you want to believe it
- 1:20:51fi, but I resent it being in the public school system.
- 1:20:55It's a violation of our separation of church and state.
- 1:20:59Keep your religion in your atheist church, I appreciate
- 1:21:03that response. I appreciate all the questions
- 1:21:05guys, I know we still have some super chats and about a thousand
- 1:21:09questions. Keep us busy for the next 10
- 1:21:11hours, but we are at the hour and a half.
- 1:21:13Mark time has flown by. We are going to call it here.
- 1:21:17It's been a great debate. Definitely one to remember.
- 1:21:19We've had a great chat as I pointed out.
- 1:21:22Great questions. Thank you, everybody for the
- 1:21:24support, and thank you to dr. Hoeven and AJ for doing this
- 1:21:28debate, and given us their time. So why don't we hand it to The
- 1:21:32Debaters for some final words? Some final thoughts before we
- 1:21:36shut it down for the night AJ, some final thoughts.
- 1:21:40Final words. Yeah, I just wanted to say thank
- 1:21:43you, sft for hosting this and can't forget, you know, doing
- 1:21:48this with me. I know this is my first debate,
- 1:21:50so thank you to the chat for kind of bearing with me.
- 1:21:54And I really enjoyed it. So I would like to do this again
- 1:21:58or with, you know, debates with other people.
- 1:22:01But my channel is just getting started.
- 1:22:03So hopefully I can do some more debates like this.
- 1:22:06So thank you. I appreciate it.
- 1:22:08My pleasure and Some final words, final thoughts or sure
- 1:22:12this July 4th of July. We're having a big deal going on
- 1:22:15here at dinosaur Adventure Land. A boot camp for to train people
- 1:22:18on creation. Bring in some young speakers
- 1:22:20that are getting Ministry started.
- 1:22:22AJ come down to Dinosaur Adventure Land July 2nd through
- 1:22:24the fifth, over the Fourth of July weekend and we have a
- 1:22:27debate right here live. Your be your second one, give
- 1:22:30you more experience. All right, gentlemen, well thank
- 1:22:33you for the final words from cat from AJ, thanks to everybody who
- 1:22:38showed up for this debate, we had over 100 people in the chat
- 1:22:41and was a lot of fun. So once again, thank you so
- 1:22:43much. We'll see you this week for.
- 1:22:45We got a bunch of shows interviews discussions guys.
- 1:22:48Please check the upcoming live stream section to keep yourself
- 1:22:53ready in a lawyer but the following stream.
- 1:22:55So everybody, God bless standing for truth is out.
