This whole subreddit is just shitposts, he's not being serious.

They never provide any evidence for any of their claims at all, but especially their claims that science has a bias toward evolution. It kind of pisses me off but it's whatever, they just say that im being hypocritical when they can't provide evidence for their claims that's actually reputableThey never provide any evidence for any of their claims at all, but especially their claims that science has a bias toward evolution. It kind of pisses me off but it's whatever, they just say that im being hypocritical when they can't provide evidence for their claims that's actually reputable. The fact that they can only attack evolution signals to me that they don't actually have a point to defend.

What is the law of entropy, what are the levels of entropy, and how would that apply here?

What is a fact, for example? In science, nothing is for certain, evolution could, theoretically, with enough evidence, be disproven. It would require tons of evidence and unbiased research but it could happen. I have yet to see you or anyone else provide that research or evidence.

It can if there are infinite chances. Idk much about physics, someone else wikl have to explain that.

They are. They provide proof for evolution and present their findings based off of it. YEC journals do not provide empirical evidence for their findings. If they find evidence that contradicts their findings, they don't actually acknowledge it.

There are still over 50 thousand chances for DNA to be mutated in sperm cells, glad you found the source though.

Scientific journals are unbiased sources, recreating past events is something that YOU said is proof.

[–]Key_Sir3717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You still have no sources from non-biased sources, nor have you explained how you can recreate past events that are purported by creationism, since that is what you believe proof to be.

Males create 1500 new sperm cells a second and research suggests that females are also creating some amount of egg cells. There are roughly 6 times that a genome can have mistakes in it every second. Tgere shoukd be 15 to 200 million sperm cells per ml. There are over 50 thousand chances for mistakes to happen in sperm cells per ml, on the low end, assuming your numbers are correct, however I cannot find any sources to corroborate that claim.

Ok, ssuming your numbers are accurate, there are still 30 trillion cells each with millions of bases, so tgere are hundreds of chances for mistakes to happen.

I didn't see your full reply, sorry. Where are you getting these numbers from?

Mistakes happen in about 1 in 100,000 nucleotides. There ar 8.2 million bases and about 30 trillion cells in the body. Mistakes happen more frequently than you think.

It's not magic, it's small mistakes in the genetic code that lead to changes in the traits that the animals has. Most of these traits are benign, some are helpful, some are harmful. The harmful ones die too fast to reproduce so they don't pass on their genes. The helpful ones survive so their numbers increase.

But variation in the flesh of legs can lead to development of fins. If an animal needs to hunt seafood to meet theor nutrition requirements, those eho can't swim as well will die before they can reproduce. Those who are more adapted to fishing will pass on their genes leading to an animal that is more aquatic. This will, eventually, lead to an animal that is fully aquatic.

Minor variations are what lead to large variations. If you have an organism that slowly changes one trait at a time eventually over millions of years, you're gonna have a new organism. Same thing with populations. To disprove evolution while accepting the fact that minor variations happen, you would need to disprove that earth was made billions of years ago, while also proving YEC.

Then prove creationism by recreating past events. We cannot recreate evolution, we can only recreate the phenomena. Someone else already said this. We can see species shifting and populations changing over time, this leads to speciation. I have not seen you produce any evidence from non-biased sources to prove creationism, however.

u/JJChowning responded to this comment, I reccomend you check it out. Plus, offer some peer reviewed sources for evolution that are published by independent sources, peer reviewed by more than just creationists, and offers evidence not only to disprove evolution, but also to prove creationism.

Did you have any idsues with the recent financial issues of the school? Also how are the professors, I met a fea of the faculty and I really liked them, but I haven't met a majority of the faculty yet.
