I went to the creation museum when I was like 9 or 10 with my (highly religious) grandma and when we got the the ark portion I informed her that "phineas and ferb could have done it better" my dad found that way funnier than my grandma.

A few years later at 21 I was at a restaurant ordering a cocktail, and the poor server was just awkwardly trying to explain to me that it had alcohol in it while I was literally holding my ID out for him to check. It’s funny, but MAN does it get annoying sometimes.
@@bryanjarboe8920 Wasn't the flood for 40 days and 40 nights? Not exactly a short amount of time spent underwater. Edit: I have been corrected (it's longer).
When you have an entity that can do everything, then everything is acceptable. The moment people, even just for the sake of argument, accept the flood, everything goes down the toilet. I myself can imagine lots of plausible reasons that could explain all of these questions, including "god jus did it". There's no point debating these people directly.
I went to Mennonite highschool that taught young earth creationism. The proudest moment of my highschool career is the time we went to see Ken Ham speak at Cedarville University and I ended up full-on, mouth-agape, head-back sleeping through the whole presentation.
I really don’t understand why Ken Ham is a climate change denier. Humans ruining the earth today fits well with the whole “human sin ruined Eden” part.
Ikr it's so easy to just go with science about a decadent excessive society bringing a global flood on itself. Like, our fossil burning and methane releasing is doing that.
because its hard to both believe that god killed almost all of humanity and the world itself for humans being too sinful after telling noah to make an ark, while also believing that humans are currently "sinning" by ruining the earth right now. If human caused climate change is real why would god not be stepping in when in the bible he used to step in constantly during such situations? its easier for him to simply say "well humans must just not be doing that then" than it is for him to give an answer that makes any sense at all. When youre committing a crime (in this case its not actually illegal but purposefully misleading children into becoming science deniers SHOULD be illegal), the smartest thing you can do is "Deny, deny, deny". Whether its denying evidence, accusations, or the whole idea itself. Also, im sure you could probably connect him to being at least partially funded by some oil company as well if you dug deep enough, but thats just me assuming at that point
EVERY LIVING SUBSTANCE WILL BE DESTROYED BY YOUR STINKING GOD. But I heard nothing about taking seeds to preserve all plant material. Did Noah also save the LEPROSY VIRUS and all the other INNUMERABLE SOURCES OF DISEASE. THANK YOU GOD FOR POLIO.

I work with a guy who legit used the whole statement of, "Have you ever seen a monkey give birth to a human?" I was so flummoxed by it that I'm like, there is no helping this guy, he's too far gone down the rabbit hole and isn't interested in proper learning to begin with. :(
Another counter is asking back, "Then why do some humans have face proportions akin to monkeys" which some people do. It's rare but it happens. It may be possible to get them to accept evolution if you frame it as God picking who changes into what
I feel so, so bad for any child walking through these exhibits. They trust their elders to teach them about the world.... and are fed lies. :/ I remember being in a Roman history museum (I grew up in Germany, dime a dozen in the western, Roman part) and asking my teacher why some exhibits said that they may not be accurate. "If they are not accurate, why are they here?" - "Because this is the best we know right now. In a few years, someone might find something new and they need to change things. That's how natural science works - it keep growing." Thank you, Frau Petrenko.

your depiction of god in the dramatic reading of noah's ark is absolutely incredible, both in the visual art and in the voice. somewhere between somewhat soothing and absolutely terrifying, perfection
Yes! It really was amazing. I wasn't even sure if she animated that, because it looked so artistic and like it was made by a professional. I didn't know she was so multi-talented
I think that, no matter one’s stance on religion or creationism or science, we can all agree on. And honestly, it fits perfectly with how God is portrayed i. The Old Testament. It simultaneously calls to mind Moses hearing God in the burning bush and Elijah hearing the still, small voice.

I spent 8 years in the Navy and know a little something about floating around on the water. When I saw the 500ft Ark and was told that only 8 people tended to thousands of animals on it my BS meter went off the charts. If they built this thing to show people how how Noah did it according to the Bible ,it had the opposite effect, It's simply not possible. Given the amount of work that would need to be done it was hysterically absurd to see a display of Noah's family quarters and scenes of them lying around painting pottery(in an Ark being tossed around on the water) And oh BTW, the bulbous bow featured on Ark, wasn't a developed technology until the early 1900's. and would have been pointless on a vessel with no propulsion.
@@highroller-jq3ix And they'd be wrong. They can easily contend lots of things, but every single time when they argue scientific principles, they are wrong.
@@BrianS1981 How do you demonstrate that they're wrong? I didn't suggest scientific principles but rather the concept of miraculous, divine intervention. Nor are creationists always wrong when they invoke scientific principles. As long as scientists and other scholars with actual credentials accept the possibility of god magic, there will be an unholy alliance between science and woo.
And the bulbous bow only developed because warships were at that stage beginning to go fast enough that the bow wave created by their passage through water became big enough to impede speed or in rough seas even cause capsizing.
"And once we open that door, we lost them." - Translation: "Once people are allowed to see the world without threat of hell and bias, they stop being creationists"? Sounds about right.
Congrats on your thesis approval! As a degreed historian, anthropologist, and museum studies scholar, I appreciate this! Also, does Ken Ham really think that 'Lucy' was fully ape??? *throws up a little...

As a former homeschooled Christian I have been watching videos like these to try and debunk the misinformation I was taught as a child and let me tell you, this video was so helpful. Thank you.
Fellow home schooled Christian, nothing like growing up being told that we should vote for people who are part of the church and no other person should be considered. 😩
My dad for years had been talking about taking us. He leads a very faith-based life but he’s also 100% a scientist, doctor, lover of astronomy and physics. He was excited to hear of a theology-based museum with supposed scientific backing. We went and he was so sad when he saw their “facts” when there are a lot of real, irrefutable scientific facts that align with many Christian ideas. When we got to the 30 minute line for the anti-abortion exhibit, he just sadly told us he was sad it wasn’t what he expected and left.
This is legitimately sad because this is exactly the kind of person that I want to be in charge of any religious I iconography in the world. I'm so sorry that your dad was disappointed! Legitimately, this is not a joke in the slightest. Tell your dad that you love him because he represents one of the best sorts of people you could ever meet on this planet.
@@lolmasterjerkit1531 it's not about being optimistic, it's about looking at what's happening in the world and certain people shouldn't be allowed to be as in control of things as they are. It isn't depressing more than it should be aggravating. But they have such a bad name in the first place for just believing in something that makes them feel good and makes them feel loved and a part of something much bigger than themselves. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that and there never has been anything wrong with that. It's people who use it as an excuse to hurt others or to take away the rights of people who have nothing to do with it. Those people need to be dragged by horses through the street until their clothes fall off and then they need to take a bath in the ocean.
I was laughing way too hard at the futurama clips, the professor explaining evolution to the orangutan with all the transitional species is basically exactly what you do, but the writers at least understood that EVENTUALLY you can't use the same argument anymore because all the evidence is there. And real life creationists will see that and say "lol no" and then talk about cars lined up in a parking lot or a mosquito laying an egg that makes an elephant
Holy shit. If you pivoted to exclusively making videos that animate Bible stories in that same style, I would absolutely be here for it, forever. That Noah animation fucking slaps.

I'm starting to think I'm blessed with having a public school education, with peer reviewed science textbooks on not only the Earth but human history and anatomy too.
Blessed indeed. Unfortunately you can be safely and securely indoctrinated through a specific lens of a homeschool ‘education’, even more so without proper teaching of critical thinking skills and something called the scientific method to guide my thinking and actually reasoning with my ideology. And yeah, I didn’t have access to proper science textbooks and education until middle school. I’m glad I quickly became much more secular as soon as I reached the age of developing reasoning abilities, despite many others not having that chance because of plenty of factors uncontrollable.
This video should be titled "All The Ways the Creation Museum Lies to You." This was a great video, and very insightful. From an ex-young earth creationist: thank you for making this.
"When a creationist reaches a certain level in their Science Education, they always face a choice: remain honest or remain a creationist, because it is not possible to be both." -Aronra

I grew up in the Jehovah's witness cult and was taught the heart literally was responsible for emotions, that the universe was billions of years old, but life was created 35000 years ago. That if we knew how old Adam was when Eve was created then we'd know when Armageddon would come. The Grand canyon was made by Noah's flood. I'm still haunted by the fact that my parents believed that crap and thought it was their duty to teach it to us. They were intelligent, resourceful, moderate people who taught me many great life lessons, so how did they think any of that made any sense?

And it would also be kind of interesting for it to be a homited because it would be a real unique "fursona" as you call it. The only way that a mascot for a creator could be considered furry relatives if they themselves are part of the fandom even if it's just by name only. The Jewish man who I forgot his name from the game grumps is more of a furry than this person, he literally has the head! But in any case I definitely believe it's some sort of hominin with a lovely blue raspberry color theme. I'm also kind of disappointed that they don't have that intro for every other one of their videos and their animated little friend doesn't come out to help explain, this is literally the only one I've seen. I was hoping to see more of the monkey man.

I would love to go there myself but I am from England so maybe at a later date and when I finally go to experience the wonderful USA for a month or so. Pls continue making these great videos as I subbed and I really enjoy all of them. Thank you Erika:)
I really appreciate how compassionate this video is and how you place the blame not with individuals who are fooled by inaccurate information from so-called experts, but with the leaders of this movement who know better. I was homeschooled and taught young earth creationism, and while I no longer believe in that world model I have found it difficult to reeducate myself due to the scornful and abrasive nature of most content debunking it. It was truly a gift to be able to learn about this topic from someone who wasn't going out of their way to make me feel like an idiot, so thank you.
There is plenty of straightforward talk about this subject which is not presented with rhetorical hand grenades. You can easily avoid 'abrasive' and 'scornful' if you want to. I drifted from my childhood's very weak participation BY MYSELF, merely reading "Just the facts, sir/ma'am" science books which said "Here's the Science, choose what you want."; NO reference to the Bible or it being wrong. I was not an O'Hare disciple or any other anti-religion True Unbeliever.f Those books and magazines HAD to be 'non-abrasive' and 'non-scornful' because of the cultural and religious attitudes at that time in most of the US. The Truth is, it was the Fundagelical Christians I grew up around (grandparents, etc.) who were the 'abrasive' and 'scornful' people, adding in 'intimidating' and 'emotionally blackmailing'. One side of the family came from a 'citified' Protestant church, and it was those EDUCATED people who gave me the room to question and investigate, not the Proto-YEC, country folk relations ... the country folk were also the ones who despised "Schwartzers" and "Chews", too, but not the city folk.
I would also recommend the RUclips channel Forrest Valkai if you want to "undue the creationist nonsense" and learn real science. He explains everything well for beginners.
It’s really funny that they include „Polygamy“ in the humans-did-this-section, since I’m pretty sure that some of Gods favorite post-flood chads had multiple wives too…
@@austinapologetics2023 Polygamy was encouraged and written into the guidelines in the old testament, it was even part of how to treat one's slaves. Kind of similar to how it was stressed that it was important not to honour any of the other gods. That christianity blatantly isn't monothiestic is another fact that these kind of theists like to gloss over.
@@nickryan3417 of course Christianity is monotheistic. Do you know what the Hebrew word for God "Elohim" means? Also I have to say your interpretation of the Old Testament is very interesting. Many scholars would argue that the opening chapters of Genesis contains polemics against polygamy, such as Adam and Eve being one man and one woman, the sins of man prior to the flood, and the tower of Babel.
@@austinapologetics2023 Monotheistic? Hahahaha. Let's start with the current religious rituals around begging for blessings from "the father, son and the holy spirit". Well, that's three for starters. Oh, so "the son" isn't really a god, so more of a demi-god then? That's still a pantheon of three. Add to this the borged saints that were stolen from pretty much every culture that christianity sublimated that previously were local gods, spirits or deities that somehow, very conveniently, changed into something christian rather than their previous meaning. The books of the old testament clearly mention the other gods. Polgamy was very much not consistently frowned upon and the passages about the social responsibilities of a man, with a wife, who gets one of his slaves pregnant having to marry and look after the slave as well? Well, that's polygamy isn't it? Or is your interpretation that because they were slaves they didn't matter. The passages on how to treat slaves very much did not condemn the taking, owning and use of slaves. The Hebrew word "elohim" is considered to be both plural and singular and the context of its use dictates how it should be interpreted in every instance. Languages can be quite flexible like that and the people of Israel were very definitely neither caucasian nor North American. What point were you trying to make about the name? Other etymologies of the names used for the main abrahmic god related to this god being the god of war, and above all other gods. That doesn't really relate to monotheism either does it? What happened to these other gods? Well, rather conveniently they were either renamed "saints" or they were absorbed into one of the others. Renaming local temples or churches is hard to do, much easier just to corrupt the meaning and to keep the name.

I was shocked to learn the issues with YEC prooftexts allegedly proving YEC from a Biblical pov. Adam & Eve were only immortal due to the Tree of Life, which means animals outside the garden could die. Cain was worried about people murdering him, when the only other humans alive should've been his parents according to YEC. He also went to Land of Nod, which was named after someone named Nod? God said Adam would die in the day he ate from the fruit, but died many years later. "Day" didn't mean 24 hours then. Genesis 2 has God creating animals after Adam. Then there is the ANE mythology, which was used by that culture.

The thing about the speed of light changing depending on things like gravity is just so painful as someone who actually had to take a university relativity class, which was so so hard. It sounds like they began reading about time dilation and then stopped reading about how time dilation and length contraction together are able to keep the speed of light constant from any reference frame.

this is so funny for me personally because when i was like 12 my super hardcore christian grandmother took me and my little brother to the ark because i was super into my edgy atheist phase and she wasn’t about to let that slide. she kept up a strong front until the dinosaur kennels, and after that exhibit she had to admit that she maybe wasn’t ‘that kind of christian.’ small victories i guess. we also rode a camel i don’t know what that had to do with anything but it was fun.
I dont get why they have such a hardline view on them living together. You could just as easily had them be like sailor tales where people told campfire stories inpsired by the ancient bones of the dinosaurs
@@ethanstyant9704 The issue for inerrantists is the Bible text itself. It states unambiguously that all kinds of animals were saved in the ark, no exceptions. If the Bible says so, they have to come up with an explanation for this, and that was their solution in this case.
I was raised in a similar environment (minus the Christian schooling) and I recall once when I was little I was sitting on the floor looking at my hands and feet and I ask my creationist father "Don't our feet kinda look like mutated hands?" and his response is literally just "No." XD
I have a super christain family and just recently while visiting kentucky we went to the ark encounter and the size of the build was impressive. my dad knew that im not really a beleiver of the relegion told me to be sentitive and not get all annoying atheist. but while walking through it I was seeing them push the idea of dinosaurs with humans. earth being only 6000 years old, and it was kinda disturbing how they depicted people not part of the relegion being idiots who loved voilence and doing bad things and themselves to be these pure nice people just trying to spread the truth. I try not to be an annoying atheist who just shows up and screams my opinion but the entire time I was walking through I would see these blatant lies and how there telling this to kids. entire sections of the place trying to prove that carbon dating isnt real or there was only one ice age. it was kinda culty.
They 100% must know that they are lying , I don't understand isn't this a horrible sin to specially lie to children. And dumb parents who have no business home schooling teach this to their kids as facts.

I grew up a teen volunteer and later employee at a large-ish science museum. We are museum visiting fans, but you wouldn't catch me DEAD at either if these. If the kids wanted to go, I'd have to give them a clear answer focused on the explanation of mythology versus observation of evidence.

HM brainwashed is a strong term, implying a nefarious intent. Gassligting would also be inappropriate. You could say missinformed. Your looking at a fossils and saying they are, 100% of life. When only less than a 1% of all ling organism a focilized. Anthrooologists and Archeologists also are hamsftong by politics and paradigms such as Clovis. The want to disprove biblical and other mythos accounts in history has lead to bad science, that was later disooven. We only believe, what we know. Accadamia is just as much as a religion as much as a religion as Islam and Taoism. Accadamia also has been just as cruel. The push for evolution paradigm has dark origins, such as the justification of enslaving Africans. Remember just because it's in a book doesn't mean it's so.

Your art sequence of the flood narrative is fucking GORGEOUS. This entire documentary is fantastic, but that part was just badass, I always love seeing depictions of biblical stories that feel authentically ancient and primal, as they should.
Glad I read this cuz I was just listening to audio and missed out on the beautiful and haunting visuals first time around. 1:09:20 for anyone who wants see it.
I always love it when somebody is able to remove the Bible from its use as a cute Sunday school storybook or *shudder* a science textbook and treat it as what it is. The folklore and mythology of an ancient civilization.
@@WildCard-ze3tm, well said. It seems very hard for YECcies to grasp the fact that the text in any bible is the product of many authors over many hundreds of years and is meant, I would like to think, to be a tool to help people be better people to others, better shepherds..... better than our primal instincts favor. As an aside, I found poignant the first art panel (01:09:15), the one where the Ark is underway, bearing down on a poor sinner clinging to a tree. That poor soul may have been one of the contractors, having recently put the final touches on the Ark. What do you think he was thinking at that moment ("Helluva severance package!!") More importantly, how many YECcies would fail to see that man clinging to a tree or, if so, fail to think of him as their neighbor?

I laugh when I consider how the super speedy male/female Sloth kind crawled off the Ark and immediately started making their way to Central America (where coincidentally their ancestors are buried) through flood destroyed barren lands and once there they immediately started to evolve into a entirely different tree dwelling species. Another thing....all trees/shrubs/grasses were destroyed...what did all these animals eat when they left the ark.
The answer to any question could and probably always will be that God just "miracled" it to work? How did koalas get back to eucalyptus trees in australia? God had some angels carry them there obviously. How were there still Eucalyptus trees on Australia? Because god told them to be. And the eucalyptus trees were like, "Yes sir!" and spontaneously appeared fully grown. Whatever nonsense you want to imagine, that's how it works! The entire continent of Australia was right next to were the ark landed and after all the Australia specific animals climbed on board god picked the entire continent up and carried it to the southern hemisphere. But then the unicorns made fun of him for skipping leg day so he picked up all the unicorns and hurled them into the sun for mocking him. And he told Noah to leave that part out. And Noah was like, "Ok. But can we talk about how all my grandkids are supposed to bang to repopulate the earth?" And God was like, "No, we are never going to address it."
When you consider the sheer number of species on the earth & the impossibility of gathering two of every type, you realize the flood story is just that: a story.
47:15 "How'd you like to work for 50 years and then die? You can't even spend the money." Comrade Todd is spittin' some truth at the Creationist museum.

Erika, I'm a Christian and I just wanted to thank you so much for what you've put together here. It makes me mad to see people who claim my religion so distort and malign science, which I consider to be vitally important. This video got more than a few laughs from me. Again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you! :)
After this exposure, the Creation Museum security staff will be on the lookout for "seventeen-year-olds with ponytails" sneaking into their facility. 😁
Me watching this video: "What?! No. What? No. What?! No! WTF?! NO." Mind-blowing. I had no idea there was even a 'thing' as YEC. It hurts my head and my heart. Thank you for going and filming, because I'd get kicked out for laughing and screaming 'no', and probably throwing up on a display.
I love the idea of the heat problem. It's something I never thought about before and pretty much puts the hammer down on the ark story and makes all the other work on refuting this myth moot. Remember, when someone brings up the ark, present the heat problem and shut them down. It will then all come down to "God handled it with a miracle". At that point, ask why, if a miracle was required for this, didn't God just use a miracle to clear away His "mistake" and avoid the suffering of innocents. You won't win the argument but you'll leave them with something to think about later.
The "miracle" being that Creationists actually still thought "the world" was _the whole planet_ even after the New World and the Round Earth were discovered, instead of the same obvious political sense of "the world" used in the expressions "Old World", "New World", and "Third World" that is the form of use seen throughout the Bible (round Earth = you won't see everything on the planet from a high mountain like when Satan showed Yeshua "the kingdoms of the world"); it's "the world" not in the sense of a planet but in the sense of a geographical region or the dominant empire or culture; Mesopotamia, a _known flood plain,_ in Noah/King Ziusudra's day, the Roman Empire in Yeshua's day as "Satan" at that point was Zeus/Jupiter, chief Pagan god of the Hellenic Greco-Roman "world" according to the rest of the New Testament, hence making him "the god of that world" who could give "all its kingdoms" (anyone who worshipped the Greco-Roman gods led by Zeus/Jupiter) to Yeshua if He would defect from His Father in Heaven, and submit to and worship Zeus/Jupiter, which sounds an awful lot like the religious syncretization that happened when Christianity became the religion of Rome and conquered the world.
An even better suggestion is to ask them why god created lucifer (satan) if he knew that satan would be the cause of billions of people being damned to hell.
I love that the ark encounter skimped on the wood and didn't use properly treated wood neither did they seal the wood to protect it. It's facade, cause that's all that "boat" is, is deteriorating so fast.

This hits so close to home for me. I was in private christian school my whole school life and we were taught the world was only about 5-6k years old and dinosaurs died out after getting off the ark and there wasn't enough food for the plant eaters. Soon after the meat eaters died out. This was taught as SCIENCE. It wasn't until late high school I saw the Cosmos series and my eyes were open to all the lies I was taught lol. I'm not against religion but I feel like it shouldn't be mixed with science and called truth.
First of all. The part about the dinosaurs were stupid they never existed in the first place so how could they be on the arc. But if cosmos made you an atheist you must be 14

As someone who unfortunately lives near the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum, I can confirm that there are a LOT of Kentuckians who hate that place precisely because of the Tax fiasco.

Kooky Evangelical climate deniers are also kooky gullible Faux News watchers.
He isn’t quick on his feet. His mind is limited
Ikr it's so easy to just go with science about a decadent excessive society bringing a global flood on itself. Like, our fossil burning and methane releasing is doing that.
because its hard to both believe that god killed almost all of humanity and the world itself for humans being too sinful after telling noah to make an ark, while also believing that humans are currently "sinning" by ruining the earth right now. If human caused climate change is real why would god not be stepping in when in the bible he used to step in constantly during such situations? its easier for him to simply say "well humans must just not be doing that then" than it is for him to give an answer that makes any sense at all. When youre committing a crime (in this case its not actually illegal but purposefully misleading children into becoming science deniers SHOULD be illegal), the smartest thing you can do is "Deny, deny, deny". Whether its denying evidence, accusations, or the whole idea itself.

Given the amount of work that would need to be done it was hysterically absurd to see a display of Noah's family quarters and scenes of them lying around painting pottery(in an Ark being tossed around on the water)
And oh BTW, the bulbous bow featured on Ark, wasn't a developed technology until the early 1900's. and would have been pointless on a vessel with no propulsion.
Well, creationists can easily contend that the bulbous bow was developed and then forgotten and that god currents provided propulsion.
@@highroller-jq3ix And they'd be wrong. They can easily contend lots of things, but every single time when they argue scientific principles, they are wrong.
@@BrianS1981 How do you demonstrate that they're wrong? I didn't suggest scientific principles but rather the concept of miraculous, divine intervention. Nor are creationists always wrong when they invoke scientific principles. As long as scientists and other scholars with actual credentials accept the possibility of god magic, there will be an unholy alliance between science and woo.
And the bulbous bow only developed because warships were at that stage beginning to go fast enough that the bow wave created by their passage through water became big enough to impede speed or in rough seas even cause capsizing.
To be fair, you don’t really need propulsion when you’re just floating until the flood ends. They weren’t really sailing anywhere.
"And once we open that door, we lost them." - Translation: "Once people are allowed to see the world without threat of hell and bias, they stop being creationists"? Sounds about right.

My dad for years had been talking about taking us. He leads a very faith-based life but he’s also 100% a scientist, doctor, lover of astronomy and physics. He was excited to hear of a theology-based museum with supposed scientific backing. We went and he was so sad when he saw their “facts” when there are a lot of real, irrefutable scientific facts that align with many Christian ideas. When we got to the 30 minute line for the anti-abortion exhibit, he just sadly told us he was sad it wasn’t what he expected and left.
This is legitimately sad because this is exactly the kind of person that I want to be in charge of any religious I iconography in the world.

I was laughing way too hard at the futurama clips, the professor explaining evolution to the orangutan with all the transitional species is basically exactly what you do, but the writers at least understood that EVENTUALLY you can't use the same argument anymore because all the evidence is there. And real life creationists will see that and say "lol no" and then talk about cars lined up in a parking lot or a mosquito laying an egg that makes an elephant

I really feel sorry for any children exposed to this level of organised deceit.
I grew up in the Jehovah's witness cult and was taught the heart literally was responsible for emotions, that the universe was billions of years old, but life was created 35000 years ago. That if we knew how old Adam was when Eve was created then we'd know when Armageddon would come. The Grand canyon was made by Noah's flood. I'm still haunted by the fact that my parents believed that crap and thought it was their duty to teach it to us. They were intelligent, resourceful, moderate people who taught me many great life lessons, so how did they think any of that made any sense?
I was one of those children. :/ The "ministry" made me dread the thought of leaving for fear of eternal damnation. Thankfully I wound up doing just that.

@@TalmudElitesorry education has failed you
@@TalmudEliteWow, how compassionate?
There is plenty of straightforward talk about this subject which is not presented with rhetorical hand grenades.
You can easily avoid 'abrasive' and 'scornful' if you want to.
I drifted from my childhood's very weak participation BY MYSELF, merely reading "Just the facts, sir/ma'am" science books which said "Here's the Science, choose what you want."; NO reference to the Bible or it being wrong. I was not an O'Hare disciple or any other anti-religion True Unbeliever.f
Those books and magazines HAD to be 'non-abrasive' and 'non-scornful' because of the cultural and religious attitudes at that time in most of the US.
The Truth is, it was the Fundagelical Christians I grew up around (grandparents, etc.) who were the 'abrasive' and 'scornful' people, adding in 'intimidating' and 'emotionally blackmailing'. One side of the family came from a 'citified' Protestant church, and it was those EDUCATED people who gave me the room to question and investigate, not the Proto-YEC, country folk relations ... the country folk were also the ones who despised "Schwartzers" and "Chews", too, but not the city folk.
I would also recommend the RUclips channel Forrest Valkai if you want to "undue the creationist nonsense" and learn real science. He explains everything well for beginners.
It’s really funny that they include „Polygamy“ in the humans-did-this-section, since I’m pretty sure that some of Gods favorite post-flood chads had multiple wives too…
Weren't they condemned for polygamy, like Solomon, Gideon, David etc.
@@austinapologetics2023 Polygamy was encouraged and written into the guidelines in the old testament, it was even part of how to treat one's slaves. Kind of similar to how it was stressed that it was important not to honour any of the other gods. That christianity blatantly isn't monothiestic is another fact that these kind of theists like to gloss over.
@@nickryan3417 of course Christianity is monotheistic. Do you know what the Hebrew word for God "Elohim" means?
Also I have to say your interpretation of the Old Testament is very interesting. Many scholars would argue that the opening chapters of Genesis contains polemics against polygamy, such as Adam and Eve being one man and one woman, the sins of man prior to the flood, and the tower of Babel.
@@austinapologetics2023 Monotheistic? Hahahaha. Let's start with the current religious rituals around begging for blessings from "the father, son and the holy spirit". Well, that's three for starters. Oh, so "the son" isn't really a god, so more of a demi-god then? That's still a pantheon of three. Add to this the borged saints that were stolen from pretty much every culture that christianity sublimated that previously were local gods, spirits or deities that somehow, very conveniently, changed into something christian rather than their previous meaning.
The books of the old testament clearly mention the other gods. Polgamy was very much not consistently frowned upon and the passages about the social responsibilities of a man, with a wife, who gets one of his slaves pregnant having to marry and look after the slave as well? Well, that's polygamy isn't it? Or is your interpretation that because they were slaves they didn't matter. The passages on how to treat slaves very much did not condemn the taking, owning and use of slaves.
The Hebrew word "elohim" is considered to be both plural and singular and the context of its use dictates how it should be interpreted in every instance. Languages can be quite flexible like that and the people of Israel were very definitely neither caucasian nor North American. What point were you trying to make about the name? Other etymologies of the names used for the main abrahmic god related to this god being the god of war, and above all other gods. That doesn't really relate to monotheism either does it? What happened to these other gods? Well, rather conveniently they were either renamed "saints" or they were absorbed into one of the others. Renaming local temples or churches is hard to do, much easier just to corrupt the meaning and to keep the name.
@@nickryan3417 “god” even says “we” or “us” in reference to those other gods in genesis. But everyone just glosses right over it

Cain was worried about people murdering him, when the only other humans alive should've been his parents according to YEC. He also went to Land of Nod, which was named after someone named Nod?
God said Adam would die in the day he ate from the fruit, but died many years later. "Day" didn't mean 24 hours then.
Genesis 2 has God creating animals after Adam.

Your looking at a fossils and saying they are, 100% of life. When only less than a 1% of all ling organism a focilized.
Anthrooologists and Archeologists also are hamsftong by politics and paradigms such as Clovis.
The want to disprove biblical and other mythos accounts in history has lead to bad science, that was later disooven.

Accadamia is just as much as a religion as much as a religion as Islam and Taoism. Accadamia also has been just as cruel. The push for evolution paradigm has dark origins, such as the justification of enslaving Africans.

Christians lately became "experts" on evolution, homosexuality and achaeology, etc. and they are not ashamed to destroy everything around them , just to save their subjective, man made Gospels.
The ark encounter would be so much cooler if it was actually a wooden boat rather than a boat-shaped building.
It reminds me of one of the boat casinos in Louisiana. Maybe they could do that when it goes bankrupt.
It's not even a boat shaped building, really. Look at the pictures of the building seen from behind. It's a perfectly ordinary building (Your basic steel-frame-and-concrete construction) with a boat façade attached to one face.
It would have been really cool if it could have withstood a non-world ending rainstorm.
@@vylbird8014 you think that if you could choose ark vs titanic as history
Yes, but then the boat would have collapsed under its own weight, let alone from the rain damage.
That was the single coolest depiction of the flood story I have ever seen. You should make that a separate video, that was awesome

Your art sequence of the flood narrative is fucking GORGEOUS. This entire documentary is fantastic, but that part was just badass, I always love seeing depictions of biblical stories that feel authentically ancient and primal, as they should.

Agreed! You should make this a stand alone video.
And then a series.
Where God looks and sounds as horrific as his actions show him to be.
I always love it when somebody is able to remove the Bible from its use as a cute Sunday school storybook or *shudder* a science textbook and treat it as what it is. The folklore and mythology of an ancient civilization.
@@WildCard-ze3tm, well said. It seems very hard for YECcies to grasp the fact that the text in any bible is the product of many authors over many hundreds of years and is meant, I would like to think, to be a tool to help people be better people to others, better shepherds..... better than our primal instincts favor.
As an aside, I found poignant the first art panel (01:09:15), the one where the Ark is underway, bearing down on a poor sinner clinging to a tree. That poor soul may have been one of the contractors, having recently put the final touches on the Ark. What do you think he was thinking at that moment ("Helluva severance package!!") More importantly, how many YECcies would fail to see that man clinging to a tree or, if so, fail to think of him as their neighbor?
Noah's 500 foot wooden Ark that was designed by his impeccable god
leaked and sank in the stormy seas of the real world.
The maximum length of a seaworthy wooden vessel equipped with bilge pumps is 350 ft. (The New England Boatbuilders Assoc.)
As long as we're taking "ark-tistic licence", we should just say Noah kept all the animals in pokeballs and be done with it.

You two should start up an organization actively dedicated to campaigning against the Biblical and scientific nonsense that comes out of YEC.
@@randomperson2078 I wish I had the energy for organizing something like. There already a few larger atheist organizations. I'm not sure if they have that specific focus. I love the one group that seek out pastors and priests and other religious leaders who have become closet atheists and helps them to find new careers outside of religion.
If a group was going to meaningfully combat YEC harm, I think it would have to be open to non YEC religious people. This would exclude some atheists but I think it would attract people with the right mindset. To dull the sharpest knife on the right wing.

I laugh when I consider how the super speedy male/female Sloth kind crawled off the Ark and immediately started making their way to Central America (where coincidentally their ancestors are buried) through flood destroyed barren lands and once there they immediately started to evolve into a entirely different tree dwelling species. Another thing....all trees/shrubs/grasses were destroyed...what did all these animals eat when they left the ark.
@SeaPin that’s good. The sloths and koalas wouldn’t have made it a mile from the big wooden ark. Ha ha!!!!
The answer to any question could and probably always will be that God just "miracled" it to work? How did koalas get back to eucalyptus trees in australia? God had some angels carry them there obviously. How were there still Eucalyptus trees on Australia? Because god told them to be. And the eucalyptus trees were like, "Yes sir!" and spontaneously appeared fully grown. Whatever nonsense you want to imagine, that's how it works! The entire continent of Australia was right next to were the ark landed and after all the Australia specific animals climbed on board god picked the entire continent up and carried it to the southern hemisphere. But then the unicorns made fun of him for skipping leg day so he picked up all the unicorns and hurled them into the sun for mocking him. And he told Noah to leave that part out. And Noah was like, "Ok. But can we talk about how all my grandkids are supposed to bang to repopulate the earth?" And God was like, "No, we are never going to address it."
Yes. It’s laughable
When you consider the sheer number of species on the earth & the impossibility of gathering two of every type, you realize the flood story is just that: a story.
Maybe noah delivered them all back to their homes like santa?
47:15 "How'd you like to work for 50 years and then die? You can't even spend the money."

The way you told Noahs story was so awesome and stylised that I almost wanna write a whole book in that sort of style
I love the idea of the heat problem. It's something I never thought about before and pretty much puts the hammer down on the ark story and makes all the other work on refuting this myth moot.
Remember, when someone brings up the ark, present the heat problem and shut them down. It will then all come down to "God handled it with a miracle". At that point, ask why, if a miracle was required for this, didn't God just use a miracle to clear away His "mistake" and avoid the suffering of innocents.
You won't win the argument but you'll leave them with something to think about later.
The "miracle" being that Creationists actually still thought "the world" was _the whole planet_ even after the New World and the Round Earth were discovered, instead of the same obvious political sense of "the world" used in the expressions "Old World", "New World", and "Third World" that is the form of use seen throughout the Bible (round Earth = you won't see everything on the planet from a high mountain like when Satan showed Yeshua "the kingdoms of the world"); it's "the world" not in the sense of a planet but in the sense of a geographical region or the dominant empire or culture; Mesopotamia, a _known flood plain,_ in Noah/King Ziusudra's day, the Roman Empire in Yeshua's day as "Satan" at that point was Zeus/Jupiter, chief Pagan god of the Hellenic Greco-Roman "world" according to the rest of the New Testament, hence making him "the god of that world" who could give "all its kingdoms" (anyone who worshipped the Greco-Roman gods led by Zeus/Jupiter) to Yeshua if He would defect from His Father in Heaven, and submit to and worship Zeus/Jupiter, which sounds an awful lot like the religious syncretization that happened when Christianity became the religion of Rome and conquered the world.
An even better suggestion is to ask them why god created lucifer (satan) if he knew that satan would be the cause of billions of people being damned to hell.
I love that the ark encounter skimped on the wood and didn't use properly treated wood neither did they seal the wood to protect it. It's facade, cause that's all that "boat" is, is deteriorating so fast.

This hits so close to home for me. I was in private christian school my whole school life and we were taught the world was only about 5-6k years old and dinosaurs died out after getting off the ark and there wasn't enough food for the plant eaters. Soon after the meat eaters died out. This was taught as SCIENCE. It wasn't until late high school I saw the Cosmos series and my eyes were open to all the lies I was taught lol. I'm not against religion but I feel like it shouldn't be mixed with science and called truth.
