once in a while I get people that really that or that claim they don't believe in evolution and my response generally is a why not really why not you guys believe 20 billion years ago that was a big bang where nothing exploded and produced everything 4.6 billion years ago the earth cooled down made a hard Rocky crust it rained on the rocks for millions of years trying to mend a soup and the soup came alive three billion years ago found somebody to marry and something to eat of course and slowly evolved into everything we see
today there are some lies in our science books taught it for 15 years even though I'm not teaching it anymore I still like the study it's so many neat things to learn we're going to cover some of that tonight I'm not against science I'm not against schools I'm not against teachers because most of them don't know what they believe you have to tell them they teach the kids it all started with a big bang 20 billion years ago what exploded that's what the textbooks teach before the Big Bang there was nothing literally nothing an infinitesimal
nugget of space and then something happens triggering the most colossal explosion in history right yes boys and girls you see nothing exploded and here we are so I asked this professor if I could ask him some questions about the big bang I said where did all this matter come from he said well we don't know that for sure I said well sir would you please tell me where the laws came from the universe is run by laws gravity centrifugal force inertia who gave the laws he said we don't know that either I said sir could
you tell me where the energy came from you know it takes energy to make a big bang who bought the gas to run this machine anyway he said we don't know that either I said sir I could ask you another question he said sure what else would you like to know what do you mean else he hasn't told me nothing yet I said does Berkeley have a merry-go-round see if a spinning object breaks apart in a frictionless environment the fragments will all spin the same direction the professor said yes I understand about the conservation of
angular momentum I said well good I'd like to ask you a question then sir if the universe began as a swirling Dodge like you said why do two planets spin backwards he said that's interesting I said no that's more than interesting it's kind of hard on your Big Bang Theory not only that six of the moons are spinning backwards why he said I don't know why do you think they're going backwards I was hoping he was going to ask that I said okay now sir hold it if I told you that I believe God created
the Heaven and the Earth like the Bible teaches you're going to say and where did God come from and I don't know but you said well we don't know that for sure we don't know that either we don't don't tell me my theory is religious and yours is science oh no sir they're both religious evolution is a religion you have to believe so ask the professor where did the matter come from he said I don't know so basically I believe in the beginning God and you believe in the beginning dirt one Professor was getting kind
of upset about this time he said Mr Hoven there are hundreds of varieties of dogs in the world he said you mean to tell me that you believe all these dogs came from two dogs off of Noah's Ark you expect me to believe that I said sir would you look at why you're teaching your students you're teaching your students that all the dogs in the world came from a rock was disciplined I mean he did these extraordinary experiments the series of experiments they're not going to tell the kids well we have evidence for this Theory
Charlie Darwin stopped off at these islands right there called the Galapagos Islands Charlie studied the birds very carefully and said you know what I think all these birds had a common ancestor I bet you're right Charlie it was a bird you see 14 kinds of birds and you conclude that birds and bananas are related here are these ancient dinosaur bones or fossils they tell the kids they have evidence of evolution from fossils I don't think so if you find a fossil in the dirt all you know is it died you don't know that it had
any kids and you sure don't know that it had different kids you bring in a bone to the judge judge I found this bone in the dirt this is the ancestor of all the humans today it would laugh at you you don't know that that's the ancestor of anybody and why on Earth would you think a bone in the dirt can do something animals today cannot do they'll see boys and girls you have two bones in your wrist radius and ulna and boys and girls look at the whales flipper carefully did you know the whale
has two bones in his slipper and they're called the radius and the ulna same as ours wow who named them teacher the whale think about it I'm here to tell my people in this time to stop believing bull with a straight look on their face Evolution say people came from monkeys and the question is why is there still monkeys is Easter [ __ ] monkeys they didn't turn into people just yet even Stephen Gould admitted the absence of fossil evidence for intermediary stages is a persistent and nagging problem for evolution see what's happened these guys
have looked for missing links in the in the fossil record they can't find any and so they say well maybe Evolution happens so fast it wasn't preserved maybe a reptile laid an egg and a bird hatched out well who did that bird marry [Music] this process that brought us to be is billions of years old it happens very fast billions of years fast here is a radioactivity we're going to tell the kids the late 1940s they invented carbon dating we're going to explain a little bit about radiometric dating and how it's supposed to work and
then show you that it does not work okay it sounds good but there are some assumptions that mess everything up if we had walked into a room and found a candle burning on the table and I asked you the question when was it lit he said I don't know Mr Olden it's burning when I got here okay well then let's do some empirical science let's measure the height of the candle suppose the candle is seven inches tall who can tell me when it was lit okay no but let's do some more empirical science let's measure
the rate of burn suppose we determine it's burning an inch an hour when was it lit you're gonna have a hard time telling me unless you're willing to make some assumptions you find a fossil in the dirt you can measure how much c14 is in it very accurately by the way and you can measure how fast it's decaying that's just like measuring the height of your candle and how fast it's burning now when did that animal die you don't have a clue here's what you ought to consider about carbon dating samples of known age it
doesn't work if it's a sample of unknown age it is assumed to work it's just really hard thing it's it's really a hard thing your world just becomes fantastically complicated when you don't believe in evolution freshly klco carbon dated 1300 years old shells from living snails carbonated 27 000 years old living Penguins carbonated 8 000 years old one part of Dima was 40 000 years old another part was 26 000 and the wood next to it is nine thousand then they tell the kids about the geologic column they say each of the layers is a
different age you know cenozoic Mesozoic paleozoicismic boys now if you get a petrified tree standing up running through different Rock layers I don't think it's smart to say those layers are vastly different ages those trees did not get slowly covered by the sediments over millions of years they would rot and fall down crazy I just say boys and girls you have an appendix that you don't need anymore it's a vestigial structure that's proof of evolution well excuse me you do need your appendix the appendix is part of your immune system if your appendix is taken
out you can still live okay but it increases your susceptibility to quite a few diseases you can live without both your legs and both your arms and both your eyes also that doesn't prove you don't need them there are no vestigial organs and even if there were that would be the opposite of evolution that's losing not gaining I was taught when I went to school man used to have a tail but he lost it because he didn't need it I thought didn't need it have you ever thought how handy a tail would be if you
ever come to the door with two sacks of groceries wouldn't that be nice man be able to grab that door and walk right around and get in it lost it because we didn't need it man you could drive the car and tune a radio knob and hold the coke at the same time and generating new species natural selection the key evolutionary mechanism Darwin identified the bad designs get eaten by the good ones and so all you have is good ones natural selection doesn't cause any Evolution it makes sure the bad ones don't survive but it's
not going to change it to something else that's what evolution is if you worked in a factory that produced cars and your job was to check for defects and you caught every single mistake and you rejected it how long would it take that process to change the car to an airplane he said it'll never change it that's my point the students are taught we have evidence from development Darwin considered this by far the strongest single class of evidence this textbook says the human embryo growing in the mother has gills like a fish those little folds
of skin are not gills those little wrinkles under your chin when you're growing up later develop into bones in the ear and glands in the throat they never have anything to do with breathing I've seen folks that have five or six chins and they can't breathe through any of them but the top one those are not gill slits ernstakle though said the turning point in his thinking was when he read Darwin's book he made huge charts of his posters of his drawings of these embryos and traveled all over Germany and just about by himself converted
the Germans to believing in evolution Hegel took a drawing of a dog and a human embryo and he changed them to make him look exactly alike on top are hakel's fake drawings underneath are actual photographs of what he claimed he was drawing a picture of now either he's a lousy artist or he's a liar well it turns out he's a liar he was convicted of fraud by his own University proven to be a fraud but guess what heckle's fake drawings are still used in textbooks in your state right now it's only been proven wrong 125
years ago I know it takes a while to get textbooks up to date but that ought to be plenty of time Adolf Hitler said you let me control the textbooks I'll control the state watch this sentence here carefully some kids doing this for homework tonight now what kind of question is that doesn't that question assume that Evolution has happened what if a kid doesn't believe in evolution how is he supposed to do his homework tonight that question does not teach him how to think critically that teaches them what to think not how to think and
when the kid gets done with this course he's going to think he knows how to think but he doesn't he knows how to be told what to think brainwashing at taxpayer expense they want to use my tax dollars to teach that to your kids in our schools if you want to deny Evolutions that's fine but don't make your kids do it because we need them and that's where the problem comes in okay if you want to believe in the Big Bang just enjoy yourself but keep your religion at home the Russian atheist astronomer came to
America and spoke at one of the universities and he said started off his speech he said folks either there is a God or there isn't both possibilities are frightening if there is no God we're in trouble we're hurtling through space around the sun right now 66 000 miles an hour and nobody's in charge that's a scary thought but if God made the world he owns it that means he makes the rules you see if there is a God we better find out who he is and find out what he wants and do what he says
Malcolm muggeridge said I am convinced the theory of evolution especially the extent to which it's been taught applied will be one of the great jokes in the history books of the future it's a joke and it would be a joke if it weren't for the tragic results how many kids are taught this thing every day and believe it and it destroys their faith who do you even pray to nobody hey if you died today where would you go you ought to think about it because you will be dead for a long time doesn't matter how
long you live you're going to be dead longer than that you know George Washington died 200 years ago [Music] still dead how much longer does he have to go you're gonna be dead for a long time all you get in this life is a little bitty Dash between two dates [Music] just a little treat and it's gone what are you gonna do with your dash where would you go if you die now if you're not sure you're going to heaven you ought to give your heart to the Lord and get saved say Lord you may
have it the whole thing if you are saved you ought to find something to do for the Lord and you ought to quit worrying about getting a fancier car in a fancier house and start worried about who's going to heaven or hell maybe God gave you that good job so you can give some money to missionaries not so you can build a bigger fancier house God loves you God has a plan for your life and if you don't want it well that's your business but the devil is laughing at you for believing in that but
God loves you and he wants you to come to heaven and if you'd like to find out how to go to heaven come see me I'll be glad to show you [Music] the big thing before the Big Bang there was nothing literally nothing nothing created everything the Big Bang is an amazingly difficult thing to wrap your brain around which isn't surprising 13.7 billion years ago we think it was Tiny nothing literally nothing was Tiny and then something happened nothing created all the matter we see in the universe today [Music] nothing is more powerful than nothing
and that's what trips most of us up it was the explosion of nothing we're all getting crazy and you better believe something something
