    Tragically, Günter Bechly has died in a car crash January 6th, 2025. He will be remembered for his bravery in standing up to the scientistic establishment, as well as for his contributions to the ID movement. He left behind a wife and two young children. Let us pray for them. 🙏

    David Berlinski stated years ago when he was a wavering agnostic/atheist, and after investigating Darwinism from a mathematical viewpoint, "In the context that realistically portrays it for what it is: a kind of amusing 19th century collection of anecdotes that is utterly unlike anything we see in the serious sciences."
    "Here are some points you should consider as well: one, the theory doesn't have any substance. Two, it's preposterous. Three, it's not supported by the evidence." "David Berlinski: Rebelious Intellectual Defies Darwinism" (RUclips, spelling original, "The Incorrigible David Berlinski").
    Refarding the Cambrian: he more or less states "it was the sudden emergence of species with no obvious predecessors: we've looked exhaustively for said predecessors.'

      That is the belief of the Jehovah Witnesses, but it isn't necessarily like that. There's a genetic link between species. What doesn't work is the gradualism, or at least the gradualism alone. This means that new species(probably in transition forms) came to existence from former species, suddenly.

  • @daemonnice

    Excellent presentation, though , revealing significant anomalies in the consensus model does not automatically suggest a vague reference to another model. Intelligent design is problematic for me as it is so vague a term. Does it mean an external creator god consciously creating life? If so, this is even more problematic for me. Especially since as a natural philosopher, I have, what I believe a more viable, naturalistic and somewhat more definitive explanation.
    What is Life? Every time they have a definition for it, they find an exception. Life, in my opinion, is both fractal as revealed by micro organisms and a continuum. When it comes to new life, only life can beget new life. The idea of abiogenesis is as absurd as a creator god. When it comes to the question of why there is life on Earth: it is because Earth is an organism, if not a super organism and is alive. If we ask the question why is there life in the universe? We come to a similar conclusion, because the universe is alive, and is the ultimate organism as coined by Alfred North Whitehead. To believe life, a highly structured order of things can arise via random events involving non living matter in a nonliving universe is not only absurd but highly illogical. On earth there is no line of separation between an organism and its environment. Would that make sense if the earth wasn't alive?
    As for the explosions of new life, I also have a possible explanation for that. James Maxlow argues in his Tectonic Expansion Hypothesis that magnetic data from the sea floor as well as geological and fossil records suggest Earth has not been relatively the same size throughout its existence as consensus theory argues but that the earth has expanded(grown) and was once 55% smaller in volume than today. The magnetic data suggests these periods of growth occur during pole flips which would require a great deal of electromagnetic energy most likely cosmic in origin. A smaller volume earth would also explain the mass of dinosaurs for on a smaller earth the gravitational effect would be less.
    Is this explanation a variation on intelligent design? I think not. Intelligent design suggests a conscious will at work, what I am suggesting is something that is autonomic, not conscious. As the Ultimate Organism the universe is no more intelligently creating us, as we are intelligently creating the microorganisms that inhabit our being, which for all intents and purposes is their universe.

    No, Guenther does not know his stuff. It is sad how far he has fallen from a scientific cutting edge that he never occupied (except for some dragonfly taxonomy). A short look into the genetics of development of traits (any organism) will refute his entire thesis from the start: for those who know how and where to look they can see transitions of traits in every phylogenetic tree. This is what cladistics is based on. There are plenty of examples how structures get bigger or smaller (physically) and most 'sudden changes' have turned out to be sampling artefacts (i.e. that the transitional fossils have not been found yet). It is sad that B is now following his own cult rather than contributing to the corpus of knowledge that is called evolutionary biology.

    • @sliglusamelius8578

      as with most things in life, the answer is never simple or a simple binary. Evolutionary biology seems like the answer but has a lot key issues it does not explain information. Religion explains the information and purpose of life but does not tell you how things were created. We all need the Lord and thus have to look for him

      The fossil record as seen in this talk show the assumptions of evolutionary biology are wrong, things appear fully formed and complex rather than gradually from previous simpler forms, so why would it disprove the bible? The bible says God speaks and things appear, darwinism says things gradually form, fossils agree with the bible.
