He talks as if to children... and children will believe anything if you tell it to them with appropriate enthusiasm and have a modicum of authority over them. And i would not give her any kids for education, he has too many leftist thoughts which never lead his followers to anything good...

And and another of my favorite KZfaq people is watching too! So cool Shannon!

I recently found her channel and she's great. Seth is right that her enthusiasm is definitely contagious. She has a vibe like Bill Nye, where when she starts talking her love for teaching just pours out.

Seth shared this via Facebook "watch the first three minutes and you'll stay for all thirty." Well, he was right. lol

Against stupid creationists

@@rocketsurgeon1746 Independent thought most likely... i only saw half of the interview but it is clear to me that she is in love with left wing views and everything that she believes is "obviously true".

Definitely go check out her channel! I was taught so many false "arguments" in support of creationism, growing up mostly home schooled and in Christian schools.... While I had already rejected theism before fully understanding the falsehoods I was taught, Erika has taken that understanding of the "real" science to a whole new level for me!

As a Christian myself, a primate using a rock to smash something is far from humans using cnc machines :) we are not primates and this theory is NOT fact. That is the lie so many fall for.

@@rocketsurgeon1746 Human's ancestors were literally just using rocks to smash things for hundreds of thousands of years, computers and the like are quite new in the span of how long humans have been around

@@mae8646 allegedly. How do they really know? We have very old brass and iron tools. Our brains cannot have developed far in that amount of time. At least there is no evidence it can

@@rocketsurgeon1746 What is amazing to me about people who call evolution a theory and not a fact is the complete misunderstanding of what a scientific theory is. A scientific theory is comprised of many facts, and is so well supported by evidence that is accepted by the scientific community with the highest level of certainty afforded. In the case of evolution there is so much evidence in DNA, the fossil records, observation of the mechanisms of genetic changes that there is no significant dispute about the core tenets of the theory of evolution. These evolutionary biologists and paleontologists spend their life studying the minutia of the shapes of skulls, relative lengths of the tibia.... just to uncover facts and scientific truths, but some ding dong who works in insurance and watches creationist you tube videos chimes in with his declaration that "Our brains cannot have developed far in that amount of time". I'm flabbergasted that people are so ignorant.

She has the passion, knowledge, and talent to be the next great science communicator should she pursue that.

Go nuts on the videos, but stay away from that food in your fridge (allow it to evolve, it might just walk out on its own). I just cleaned out our “summer fridge” in the outdoor kitchen, it contained some forgotten stuff from last summer. There was live in there Jim, but not as we know it.

Love your videos Skep.

@@chipsndipz1343 Hey! Thanks! I appreciate that!

Dude, you and she both need more subs! It’s great seeing some positive new voices rise from the ashes of first generation KZfaq atheism.

Videos aren't the best choice when it comes to evolutionary theory and getting a fundamental understanding of it ... reading books are in a way a necessary when it comes to learning about evolution. There are so many incredible books by individuals like Michael Ruse, Ernst Mayr, James T. Costa, Neil Shubin, Francisco Jose Ayala, Rebecca Stott, Carl Zimmer, Jerry A. Coyne, David Quammen, Judith Hooper, William D. Hamilton, George C. Williams, Jan Sapp, George McGhee, J.William Schopf, Richard D. Alexander, David Sloan Williams, Steve Jones, Sean B. Carroll, Stephen Jay Gould, Nils Eldredge, Donald R. Prothero, Adrian Desmond etc...that write phenomenal books concerning Evolutionary theory. Of course the classical works by Charles Darwin, Alfred Russell Wallace, Thomas Henry Huxley, Joseph Dalton Hooker, Theodosius Dobzhansky, Ernst Haeckel, Julian Huxley, Lynn Margulis, Richard Dawkins etc...also give historical and empirical arguments and beautiful prose... Highly recommended is one of my favorite all-in-one books concerning Evolutionary theory is by Michael Ruse & Joseph Travis called "Evolution: The First Four Billion Years" with a foreword by legendary Edward O. Wilson (RIP😓) and essays by Michael Benton, Jeffrey L. Bada, Antonio Lazcano, Fransisco J.Ayala, Daniel Rubenstein, Eugenie Scott etc. - almost 1000 pages going from Abiogenesis to Speciation to Transposons to Fossils....a great Tomb of knowledge written by actual specialists, University professors and PhD holders in the field.

​@@YoungEarthCreation Thank you for volunteering as a prime example for my above hypothesis.

@@YoungEarthCreation Since by definition, as a YEC, you clearly have zero idea about any of those fields, you claiming to be able to see where she is wrong, is again proving my point. This would normally never be my starting point. I reserve this kind of sentiment for YECs, flat earthers and moon landing deniers. The problem with this "discussion" between the two of us is the futility, since sadly, your position disquialifies you from the get go. Only once you accept the possibility of being wrong, would any discussion with your likes be possible.

I felt the same way when I first came across her videos.

Her enthusiasm for the subject is infectious and her videos are incredibly informative even if I only understand half of it.

Yep just like all the other evolutionists, she does have a good imagination.

A binge worthy set of videos - and enough of them for several different binges, and I learn new things with every one!

Hmm... last I checked, evolutionist were pushing that "Junk DNA" was useless. Creationist pushed for a further investigation and we discovered that evolutionist, even the top evolutionist, were dead wrong. Ironically, it's still referred to as junk DNA despite that no longer being the case. Evolutionist were also wrong about ERVs (endogenous retro viruses), vestigial organs, etc. Evolutionist have a long history of being wrong because all of their assumptions are based on a broken model.

Sorry I hate to bust your bubble but this whole notion that humans share a common ancestor with Chimps is bogus And i will give you many reasons why creationist do not believe that we are related to chimps. And here's what Ericka is not telling you . 1. Their simply is not enough time to get enough beneficial mutations to evolve a pink anus ass scratching dumb ape like primate into a spacecraft building human. 2. Their have been human footprints found in rocks that would be millions of years too early for human. That proves humans could not evolve for stupid chimps. 3. The idea of transitional fossils from chimp to human is laughable at best . Paleontologist find bones in mixed bone beds and somehow they designate certain bones to chimps or humans origin based on what story they want to tell. 4. Their are no Lack of evolutionary environment pressure that would evolve chimplike creatures into humans . (If you know of any please inform me . I already asked Ericks and she never responded ) 5. Their is a extremely wide gap in the level of intelligence between chimps and humans. If evolution was this ongoing process of change., Why aren't their any chimps that has evolved different levels of intelligence? Where are the sub level intelligent chimps compare to human ? Where are the transitional in the form of intelligence? Did the all chimps somehow reach a plateau but the humans just kept evolving ? 6. Not only is their not a lack of transitional. Their are mechanisms like chaperone proteins that doesn't allow protein a chance to evolve past a certain point . If a protein reaches a certain limit of its intended shape. The Chaperone proteins chops up the protein for energy for the cell. 7 . Then editing enzymes corrects mistakes from cell division. This further stop the creature from evolving into something completely different. Not only that , it speaks to a forward thinking mechanism from a designer. 8.And every transitional chimp that is proposes to be a transitional. Each one of the skeleton is either poorly preserved . ( missing adjoining bones or heavily fragmented) These skeletons are they ones evolutionary paleontologist insert "artistic licensing" to tell the store . But in contrast , the skeleton that are highly preserved and relatively complete. These skeletons are deemed clearly chimp or human. Somin summery . Their have no mechanisms to evolve a chimp into a human. You have no transitions. And their no variation in levels of intelligence concerning chimp. All of them are basically stupid vs humans. They are all arboreal tree swing ass scratching stupid chimps that take massive dumps in the woods without even thinking about wiping their asses. This make me wonder why anyone could believe that human and chimps evolve from a common ancestor . One build spacecraft, One spent 50% of their day scratching their ass while swinging in trees . That's Quite a stark contrast Dont you think ?

So you adore her for lying to people that evolution has evidence?

The only comparable debate in my mind was Hovind and Conspiracy Catz. Everyone else tends to (understandably) allow their frustration with Hovind bubble up and inform their responses, and things tend to degenerate into a shouting match (which Hovind wants to provoke to "prove" that atheists are all angry, unreasonable people. ) Catz, being a teacher, held Hovind's feet to the fire like he was a recalcitrant child and forced him to stick to the topic.

I've seen several of her debates now, and she has alluded to some research she does ahead of time into the person she's debating. It definitely shows, and has gotten even better over time, as her presentations for the opening statements tend to be targeted directly at that person's favorite talking points.... It almost ends the debates before they begin! 😂

@@simongiles9749 I gotta see that. Thanks for your interest and contribution.

When a debater uses insult, ridiculisation, ad hominems and goalpost moving instead of arguments I would not call that an amazing debater but a clown in a freakshow. It is just a repeat of same tricks and lies Hovind performed the last 20 years. One can only distinguish his performance from 20 ears ago from those of today by the jacket or shirt he is wearing , but you have to make the comparisaon pure audial, you get lost.

Ran circles around whom? Certainly not Aaron Ra or Professor Dave. Inmate #06452-017 is not a good debater, whenever someone nails him he just switches topics which makes it obvious that he is either lacking knowledge on the most basic definitions, like kind, or he is disingenuous. He also loves to interrupt people as often as he can and whines to the moderator if he feels the other participant got "too much time". He is also rude, dismissive, hypocritical and insulting towards his "debate" partners. All in all inmate #06452-017 is a pathetic debater.

Isaac Newton lacked the technology to further work on his theory of gravitation and filled the gap with God. Then came Einstein and God's role in that seemed unnecessary.

@@alexandrorocca7142 Indeed. That's the story with just about everything that religion has claimed at some point. Those gaps are shrinking faster and faster and there are less and less places that religious people can insert god into.

It will never be gone completely, but we are trending, globally, towards secular beliefs, albeit fairly slowly.
