Debunking Creationism #1 - How Human Evolution Works

[Anomalocaris]

False equivalence, Creationism and evolution aren't mutually exclusive. You'd have to debunk creationism using abiogenesis.

you don’t have to debunk creationism because there is absolutely nothing there to debunk. A statement is not a theory.

Now that Roe v. Wade is falling, will Creationism be making a comeback?

70 views in 3 hours is pretty good (especially given that it is 5 AM).  Why does this continue to be such a hotbutton issue?

Thank you. And I don't know.

Well creationists tend to not believe in evolution.

Did we get rid of the 30/30 rule?

Not at all. This one appears to fall under the exception:

Note: An exception to the 30/30 requirements is when external content is used within a discussion or with the intention of discussion. For example, a member who has not yet met the 30/30 requirements is allowed to post external content if they are using it as evidence in a discussion, or if it is relevant to the ongoing discussion.

Yes actually I meant to generate a discussion on the video. Hopefully I'm all good!

There are 3 types of creationism

1) Fine Tuned Creation - God created the universe and designed the laws such that beings intelligent enough to worship Him were guaranteed to evolve.
2) Guided Evolution - God not only created the universe for life, but has an ongoing hand in making sure Humans evolved.
3) Special Creation - God created the universe and world in what is almost its present form. Any evolution that happened in the 6000 or 10000 years since, is destructive to life, and part of the Devil's work.

These have to be dealt with separately. I'll watch the video when I can.

It’s being looked into.

But since you want to generate discussion on the video, I found it trite, dull, and poorly narrated. Discuss.

I've seen no discussion on his/her part, only acknowledgement.
