Part of a series of videos exposing the funny stupidity of creationists and why they deserve to be laughed at. In each case the creationist statements are shown to be outrageously stupid by even the most rudimentary knowledge of science.
In this episode Jonathan Wells of the creationist organization The Discovery Institute is taken to task over his bizarre assertions that the inability of a burst cell to spontaneously reassemble means that abiogenesis must be impossible. The bacteria is a modern organism....the end product of 4bn years of evolution. It is a complex organism and as such can compete in the biosphere using the fast reproduction 'strategy'. The reason bacteria are around today is they are vigorous reproducers. Jonathan Wells seems to be attacking the proposal that 'MODERN bacteria were the first life on Earth', which is in reality a straw man that exists nowhere outside of Wells's mind. The reasoning is similar to that used by Ken Ham, that you don't get abiogenesis from blended frogs. All of this seems to be ignoring the key factor that the biosphere is a harsh competition. There is simply no niche where abiogenesis could get a grip where it simply would not be out competed by life that has been around for 4bn yrs.

Tell a friend:














All scientists are atheist? Hmmm....
Tell me how you KNOW that. I'm really curious, cause it just hit me. How can we know this. If it's based on scientific theory. We do not know then. It's funny how we pretend to know what we have no experience with. We pretend to know how the stars and the sun work, based on 400 years of observation. How can we know how it works by ca 400 about years of observation, when they live for billions of years.
religion is a mental illness (disasociation from reality)
as soon as harry potter starts to have any impact on your day to day life you are officially a fucking fruit cake and should be locked up, at the very least you should not be allowed near kids.
im not normally violent, but if someone would be decent enough to put a bullet in this fat monster i for one would truly celebrate it.
sub-human filth.
Sure, it's amazing that mankind can travel into space! I'm just more fascinated by the One who brought space into existence in the first place, along with everything else.
And you don't think concluding that it's FACT humans and chimps are distant cousins is "presupposing too much"? - especially when The Great Debate is not settled.
Evolution will have me believe a mouse is my distant cousin as well! It doesn't stop at the apes.
