      Don't get me wrong learning about whale evolution is awesome but the idea that you can't learn anything from the Bible shows an inability to grasp poetry, allegory, linguistic development and the way those tie tied to history.
      Like the Torah is is a text chock full of glimpses into the way people thought and lived. It's an ethnography and code of laws that got turned into a religious text and that's fascinating.

    I said as much in another video that I planned on starting to rewatch your entire science based video series, but with my 2 year, 3 month old granddaughter, a video or three every weekend she stays over with grandma and me. She stays with us every single weekend, from Friday evening until Sunday afternoon. Along with her usual toddler appropriate videos, dancing to 80s heavy metal music. She is already starting to speak several words of Ozzy Osbourne's "Crazy Train" as the song runs. She even emulates Randy Rhoads minus an actual guitar (dad owns one at home). She also helps me in my backyard garden during the growing season, she eats some of the veges we grow right off the vine. She already knows how to count to 20 in English and 10 in Spanish, and knows several sign language movements. I'm glad my granddaughter and all future grandchildren of mine will be spared the dogmas, fanaticism, and fairytales of organized religion.

    Excellent stuff. Educational and entertaining....as all education should be. Cant wait for the next one. Really cant wait....so I'll be delving (diving ?) into the literature on whale evolution for myself before it comes out. Thanks for stimulating my interest. Keep 'em coming !!

    I’m someone who’s already interested in paleontology, taxonomy and phylogeny as a whole, so it wasn’t a learning experience for me. But goodness gracious, your ability to speak and educate clearly and effectively is incredible. Great video, Mr. Ra.

    Aron, while this is extremely informative, just about every technical term you have used is way beyond the understanding of every creationist and most other theists. Einstein suggested explain it like you are talking to a child. Because children are who you are trying to educate, the rest of us are already walking along side you.

    "forget to mention", I always thought they did that on purpose because wikipedia is run by jerks. It is also on my shopping list of things I wish I could tell wikipedia, that is if they listened to criticism, that and why is everything listed alphabetically. Both of which drives me cray-cray.
