(1) Evidence is a Rapper… Read Full Bio ↴There are 5 artists with the name Evidence.
(1) Evidence is a Rapper/Producer and a member of hip hop group Dilated Peoples
"Raised in Santa Monica til' the divorce/six years old/I couldn't see what was coming of course/the plan/ Mom bounced on Old Man/ then we moved to the Venice sand/ A young youth seen gangs first hand/ fake address for school/ two educations/ rich friends then back to my land."- "Born in LA" - Evidence
Those bars, a nod to Raekwon's verse from āC.R.E.A.Mā, are from the L.A. anthem on Evidenceās solo debut album The Weatherman LP and paint the backdrop that catapulted him on the course that would shape his life and career.
Evidenceās affinity with hip-hop and the culture began in the early eighties, with his parent's divorce and subsequent move from the affluent city of Santa Monica to neighboring Venice Beach. Raised by his single mother of Russian decent with his Italian father less and less in the picture, Evidence took solace in his new backyard where his favorite pastimes became break-dancing at the former Venice Pavilion and skate-boarding with the legendary Venice Z-Boys.
By the early nineties and in addition to becoming a well known graffiti artist, painting hip hop inspired hieroglyphics under the name "VANE," a fateful move next door to QD3, son of legendary producer Quincy Jones, Evidence discovered his true calling. QD3, an accomplished West Coast producer, ("To Live and Die in L.A."- Tupac, "Ghetto Bird"-Ice Cube, "I got the Knack"- Everlast) became one of Evidence's major influences in his pursuit to create music. "At night I would hear a loud thumping coming from the back yard next door and it wouldn't stop until early in the morningā says Evidence recalling those early days. āI could tell that they weren't just playing music but sounded like music was being created.ā
Shortly after meeting QD3, Evidence teamed with the likeminded Rakaa to form the highly praised group Dilated Peoples and after the success of their 1997 single "Third Degree" b/w "Confidence" and "Global Dynamics" on ABB Records ā and the addition of DJ Babu to the fold a year later -- the groupās buzz exploded out of the underground and quickly became a fixture on the hip hop tour circuit. They hoped their success would serve as a platform for solo projects, much as the Wu-Tang Clan's success had done before them.
Four critically acclaimed albums, countless performances around the globe, and outside production work-including tracks for the Beastie Boys, Linkin Park, Swollen Members, Defari, Planet Asia and co- production on Kanye West's debut album College Dropout which earned him a Grammy, Evidence gives his fans a spectacular taste of his own individual talent on his debut solo album The Weatherman LP (ABB Records).
Through his work as one-third of Dilated Peoples, Evidence became a torchbearer and champion of hip-hop culture. "This is for people who get what I do,ā says Evidence. "If I'm going to come out independently and have the freedom to do what I want, there's no better way to represent. I want to be a leader and carve out a new path."
The Weatherman LP erases the misconception that it never rains in Southern California, as Evidence's reign over the rap world is imminent. With production from The Alchemist, Sid Roams (producers Joey Chavez and Bravo), Jake One, DJ Babu, DJ Khalil, and Evidence himself, the high-powered collection boasts brilliant beats that perfectly compliment Evidence's impressive lyrical scope.
One of the most powerful songs on the album is "Believe in Me" featuring Res ("They Say Vision," "Golden Boys"). "I think people can tell when an artist isn't confident in themselves and on this song I let the audience know I have something to say and I am going to stand behind it. When you come and see me on stage I am going to look you in the eyes and make that connection, I want the audience to know that I am ready to take the responsibility of being a leader, something they can believe in."
Evidence displays innovative layers of his artistry on the revealing "I Still Love You" and "Chase The Clouds Away;" both tributes to his mother, who succumbed to cancer more than two years ago. She was the inspiration behind both songs and Evidence's life. At the highest point in Dilated's career, with a hit single "This Way" and on tour with Kanye West to support the 2004 release of Neighborhood Watch, Evidence received a phone call that would change his life forever. He left the tour immediately and his mother's sudden death two weeks later propelled him into a depressive state that made him seriously contemplate his career. Writing and performing "I Still Love You" was emotionally challenging for Evidence, a single child whose mother was his best friend and confidante. "I produced it, I rapped on it and I recorded it by myself with nobody in the room because I couldn't have anybody around when I was doing it," he explains. "It's the one time you're definitely going to get all of me."
Evidence constructed "Chase The Clouds Away" after coming out of the disheartened state he fell into after his mother passed. "When my parent's got divorced my mother began taking pictures of me and realized she had a talent...I saw her make something out of nothing. She turned her talent for taking pictures into a career and that is what I ended up doing in a way by making music and rapping in my bedroom then taking that product around the world to become my profession."
With the release of The Weatherman LP, Evidence will continue to build upon a new brand fueled by his re-inspired work ethic. "I am not relying on the success of Dilated Peoples to push this album, while they are featured on it and heavily co-signing my solo venture I understand that I am going to have to work twice as hard and get back in front of the people and re-introduce myself through shows, my music, and constant day-to-day networking with my fans. I am not married; I don't have kids, so I can stay on the road all year long if that is what it takesā¦so at the end of the day what I put in is what I get out and it will all be a reflection of me, Evidence."
(2) An alias of Miro Pajic from PCP. He released 2 records under this name between 97 and 98 on the Dance Ecstacy 2001 label, as well as a CD only track a few years down the line on a Resident E compilation. Dark, energetic uptempo and melodic synth tracks.
(3) Sound artists Stephan Moore and Scott Smallwood began performing as the duo Evidence in 2001. Focusing on the universe of real-world sound, Evidence pours field recordings like water into their compositional and improvisational process, resulting in music that balances between tight organization and unregulated flow. Using recording equipment, laptops, and other electronic devices, Evidence creates music that deals with gradual change, improvised over time, sometimes atmospheric, sometimes pulsating, always texturally striking and unique. Resisting classification into a single genre, Evidence is equally at home performing in experimental venues, clubs, galleries, planetariums, and rooftops.
(4) Evidence was a progressive gothic band active in France in the nineties; they released the album "Heart's Grave" in 1996. Singer LSK is now a member of the band Demian Clav.
(5)vidence toma forma oficialmente el aƱo 2007, meses antes de comenzar la aventura que fue realizar su primera producciĆ³n titulada "Junto a Ti". Su ministerio a formado parte ya de diferentes convenciones en los Estados Unidos junto a pastores como Alejandro Bullon (evangelista mundial), Manuel Cruz (directo asociado de jĆ³venes de la DivisiĆ³n Norte Americana), Willie Ramos (mejor conocido como ghetto preacher), JosĆ© MarĆn (Director de la obra hispana de la conferencia de Arizona) y ministerios como JesĆŗs Love Jeans, Esperanza TV y muchos mas. Su ministerio a trascendido ya las barreras que existen hoy en dĆa entre generaciones. Su mĆŗsica inĆ©dita lleva con ella un mensaje de esperanza escritas en los momentos mas difĆciles de sus vidas.
Evidence esta compuesto por 3 integrantes: Danny Cano (piano/voz) quien esta casado y esperando el nacimiento de su primer bebe. Leif Cano (voz) maestro de primaria y secundaria al igualmente casado, y Jorge Zambrano quien estudia la carrera de quĆmica aspirando ser doctor algĆŗn dĆa. Sus inicios como ministerio empieza cuando Danny y Leif comienzan a cantar como un dĆŗo al llegar a la Universidad Adventista de Southwestern en Keene, TX. Ayi es donde toman el llamado al ministerio musical y comienzan un dĆŗo oficial llamado āDLā. Como hermanos sus voces y personalidades siempre fueron complementarias pero sentian que su ministerio necesitaba algo mas. Al continuar sus presentaciones de iglesia en iglesia invitando a diferentes mĆŗsicos, se dan cuanta que Jorge con su guitarra le darĆa el toque final a su ministerio. āJorge es ahora un hermano mas con quien puedo compartir y generar ideas musicalesā (Danny Cano).
Su primera producciĆ³n titulada āJunto a Tiā fue terminada el mes de Septiembre de el 2008 bajo la direcciĆ³n de el productor Mike Rosario y la disquera Sonic Rush Records. Contiene cantos como āJunto a Tiā que fue el canto que le dio el titulo al cd, āContigo quien tuvo como invitado especial a el grupo Forgiven, āEn Memoria de: Aiden Erick Canoā que fue compuesta y dedicada al bebe que Leif perdiĆ³ antes de nacer y cantos que sin duda tienen gran significado en diferentes etapas de sus vidas.
Al final de todo Evidence no es nada mas que 3 jĆ³venes que han tomado el llamado a ministrar por medio de la mĆŗsica y que aun cuando los problemas lleguen a sus vidas, ellos con la ayuda de Dios seguirĆ”n alabando su nombre! āNuestro propĆ³sito no es presentar mĆŗsica aunque prediquemos por medio de ella, si no que al escuchar nuestra musica puedas saber que hay un Dios real que aun en las horas mas oscuras de tu vida El nunca se aparta de tiā (Evidence)

The lyrics to "Evolution" by Evidence explore the concept of growth and change, likening it to the process of evolution. The opening lines, "Which is of course what is all about / Evolution evolution, like the dinosaur," suggest that evolution is a fundamental aspect of life, just like how the dinosaurs evolved over time. The line "Look out that window you had your time / The future is our world" implies that the past is behind us, and it's now time to focus on the future and how we can evolve as individuals and as a society.
Evidence then goes on to discuss his approach to music and his dedication to his craft. He acknowledges that some people may criticize or copy his style, but he's not worried about that. He mentions his preference for staying in the background and focusing on creating quality music rather than seeking attention. The line "But still I play the back, cuz / When I don't do that, attacks" suggests that he faces criticism when he steps into the spotlight, but he sees the value in staying true to himself and his art.
The repeated phrase "Evolution is the day you're my target" emphasizes the importance of growth and progress. It serves as a reminder to constantly strive for improvement and development. The lyrics also touch on themes of revolution and challenging the status quo, with the line "Look to fuck some stuff up / And rip another rough cut" suggesting a desire for change and pushing boundaries.
Overall, "Evolution" is a song that encourages reflection and growth, urging listeners to embrace change and strive for personal and societal progression.

Sir, I have got conclusive evidence:
Notarized depositions,

"...back legs on whales?"
Back legs where? Did you check this claim?
"...genetic similarities?"
Lots of things have genetic similarity. Do you know how similar your DNA is to a banana?
"...fossils into the ground?"
Of course not. They didn't imagine fossils, they imagined the implications of those fossils. They assumed things based on what they think happened not what they observed.
"Funny because when I hear the word..."
Now you are speaking on your particular bias.
"...something like whale feet."
...is wholly ridiculous. The whale does not have feet. It's a marine animal. What use for feet would it have?
"...those who ignore.. evidence for evolution (are) raised in a religious setting."
That is not an empirical observation. Lots of people with religious(?) backgrounds believe in the kind of evolution sold by Darwin. Some scientists that use Evolutionary concepts in their explanations and hold this view believe in a god.
I realize that it's standard for atheistic evolutionist types to presume low intelligence or malicious intent on those that disagree with them. What I don't understand is why, after invoking intelligence as a primary discerning factor, they don't use their own to help settle the matter.

@Doc Reasonable yeah, to all student referred to this site. dont bother wasting your time. go learn something useful like programming unless you want to learn made up phrases like "the Acheulian Hand Axe "
like "hyoid bone "
like "variant of the FOXP2 gene "
and we must NOT forget the "Denisovans " and "bonobos "
atheists also have the inside track to the christian faith that even CHRISTIANS never had! they are experts on the bible and according to these people we all cram into a building and pretend like we're talking to the invisible man

āUseless vestigesā no more, researchers say
For decades, scientists assumed that the relatively small pelvic bones found in whales were simple remnants of their land-dwelling past, āuseless vestigesā that served no real purpose, akin to the human appendix or tailbone.
A new study, co-authored by Erik OtĆ”rola-Castillo, a fellow in David Pilbeamās paleoanthropology lab in the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology, suggests that the bones, in fact, have a very specific purpose ā particularly when it comes to making baby whales and baby dolphins. The research is described in a recent paper in Evolution.

From an article by Stephen Bartholomew, Jr. on March 12, 2021
The credibility of Whale evolution plunges to zero. This is clearly demonstrated by looking at the amazing physical features of whales and comparing them with the features of its original ancestor. A partial list of these features is:
Enormous lung capacity with efficient oxygen exchange for long dives.
A powerful tail with large horizontal flukes enabling very strong swimming.
Eyes designed to see properly in water with its far higher refractive index and to withstand high pressure.
Ears designed differently from those of land mammals that pick up airborne sound waves and with the eardrum protected from high pressure.
Skin lacking hair and sweat glands but incorporating fibrous, fatty blubber.
Whale fins and tongues have counter-current heat exchangers to minimize heat loss.
Nostrils on the top of the head (blowholes).
Specially fitting mouth and nipples so the baby can be breast-fed underwater.
Baleen whales have sheets of baleen (whalebone) that hang from the roof of the mouth and filter plankton for food.
Many cetaceans find objects by echolocation. They have a sonar system which is so precise that itās the envy of the US Navy. It can detect a fish the size of a golf ball 230 feet (70 m) away. It took an expert in chaos theory to show that the dolphinās āclickā pattern is mathematically designed to give the best information.
These features are obviously highly developed and extraordinarily complex. However, none of them were inherent in Pakicetus or any of the other creatures that have been suggested as the whaleās original ancestor. Because mutations are the only source of genetic change, all of them, therefore, must be attributed to mutations. The creation of these entirely unique features, however, requires the introduction of new genetic information, and mutations are incapable of this:
@paulfromcanada5267
@@DenisK21 The parade of reconstructions on pages 66ā69 in National Geographicās November 2001 issue were meant to sum up the magazineās claim regarding the origin of whales. A whole string of creatures were lined up one after the other and described as transitional forms in the evolution of the whale. According to the magazine, the order of these creatures, according to the geological periods they lived in, was as follows:
Pakicetus (50 million years ago)
Ambulocetus (49 million years ago)
Rodhocetus (46.5 million years ago)
Procetus (45 million years ago)
Kutchicetus (43ā46 million years ago)
Durodon (37 million years ago)
Basilosaurus (37 million years ago)
Aeticetus (24ā26 million years ago)
National Geographicās list continued, but included known categories of dolphins and whales.
The number of these supposed transitional creatures in this series varies from one article or textbook to another, from three or four to ten or more, but almost all of them start with a four-legged creature that looks somewhat like a wolf, or a cow, or perhaps a wolf-cow. Yahyaās article is a withering critique of this whole idea of transitional forms in whale evolution. He says that ādespite all National Geographicās best efforts, the fact that there were no transitional forms between land and sea mammals and that they both emerged with their own particular features has not changed. There is no evolutionary link. Robert Carroll accepts this, albeit unwillingly and in evolutionist language: āIt is not possible to identify a sequence of mesonychids leading directly to whalesā (Carroll 1998, 329). The conclusion of Yahyaās article states the following:
Contrary to the claims of the paleontologist Hans Thewissen, who assumes a major role in evolutionist propaganda on the subject of the origin of marine mammals, and is one of National Geographicās most important sources of information, we are dealing not with an evolutionary process backed up not by empirical evidence, but by evidence coerced to fit a presupposed evolutionary family tree, despite the many contradictions between the two . . .
Loud evolutionist propaganda about marine mammals . . . resembles the āhorse seriesā that was once put forward in the same way, but which evolutionists then admitted was invalid. A number of extinct mammals that lived at different times were lined up behind one another, and the evolutionists of the time tried to impose this as āfirm evidence.ā Yet the truth emerged over time, and it was realized that these animals could not be each othersā ancestors, that they had emerged in different periods, and that they were actually independent extinct species. Niles Eldredge, the well-known paleontologist at American National History Museum, where the schemes of horse evolution were exhibited and where they are still kept in a basement, has this to say about them:
There have been an awful lot of stories, some more imaginative than others, about what the nature of that history [of life] really is. The most famous example, still on exhibit downstairs, is the exhibit on horse evolution prepared perhaps fifty years ago. That has been presented as the literal truth in textbook after textbook. Now I think that is lamentable, particularly when the people who propose those kinds of stories may themselves be aware of the speculative nature of some of that stuff.
The evolution of the whalesā fairy story, so fiercely defended by National Geographic, is another of these fantasies of natural history. Like its predecessors, it too will soon find itself in the waste bin of science
@rramirez3555
I like the name of the channel: 'Stated Clearly'.
So, I'll do the same, and state it clearly:
Genetics now knows that mutations, the supposed key to evolution, doesn't add any new information or capacity to do anything, but rather it removes information or capacity to do things.
If a land animal is to 'evolve' into a water animal, it would need to have enough mutations to develop whatever new thing it needs to be able to survive in water. Since mutations can't create new things, but rather helps the next generation to die sooner, how can it obtain his capacity to breathe in water???
And for starters, you put a land animal in water and it gets eaten by water predators there are, so there goes your evolution into another species!!
Also for any supposed new species developing, you'd need a male and a female of that species to jump together into water and not get eaten, and develop mutations that produce what they need, which now science has proven impossible to happen, plus they'd have to evolve at the same time!!
All that is not only biologically imposible, but also mathematically impossible!!
So, entertaining fairy tale, but only a fairy tale!
@Angelmou
Good day rramirez,
"Genetics now knows that mutations, the supposed key to evolution, doesn't add any new information" This is bearing of false witness. We know various info gain mutations and observe them dailyday with gene tests across the world such as: Tandem duplication mutation, retrotransposed duplication mutation, proximal duplication mutation, dispersed duplication mutation, DNA-transposed duplication mutation, & whole genome duplication mutation and the regulation swappes of parts translocated like with Robertsonian translocation.
We observe this under microscopes today with insects like bigger reproduction organs, grass to grain with 8x more nutrient info before in the ancestral forms etc. This is how saliva in snakes evolved to venom and how venom today still gains more complexity in arms races against venom immunity like in amphibians as prey to specific snakes.
This leads also to different types of speciation aka allopatric, peripatric, parapatric, and sympatric speciation. We also observe even in real time like incompatible beetle genital sizes. The gene mutations listed there for 150,000 different shaped insect genitalia are more info than all holy books humans invented. Even in Darwin's time already 150+ years ago biologists said "man if there is a god he is really found of bugs." if he put so much effort in them with more info than for any salvation telltale. ;-)
"If a land animal is to 'evolve' into a water animal, it would need to have enough mutations to develop whatever new thing it needs to be able to survive in water. Since mutations can't create new things, but rather helps the next generation to die sooner, how can it obtain his capacity to breathe in water?"
This is the good thing: Whales do not have underwater breathing organs, and only the mammalian land lung info from the hoof ancestors mutated as mere adaptation to the water lifestyle.
This is the very reason why whales are able to drown in the waters like beneath ice shelves in the arctic and antarctic sea.
This is why there is no creation or design in nature as observation. As a great genetic bioengineer could just design an underwater respiratory organ for mammals in the water. While in reality evolution only works by info repurposement and gradual gain due to the named types of duplication info to then further mutate for further purposes very gradually.
Like the lung organ is a gradual oxygen storage surplus variation of the early swimmbladder gullet bag organ with specific gene mutations like the sox2 mutations in fish ancestry to adapt to longer dry periods in brakish oxygen insufficient swamp waters so that they further adapted to a complete landlife as mere variation of surviving longer dry out periods. Without any fish ancestor thinking: Man i need to conquer this land.
"you'd need a male and a female of that species to jump together into water"
This is not how speciation works. You have already tens of thousands of brood pair mating partners together having gradually over several thousand generations semi aquatic adaptations. Like today seal colonies sunbathing at beaches and showers. So did the whale ancestry of the open sea also have beach and shore colonies with the half migrated noses to the top of the head as transitional forms we did find and have photos like in the video.
This is also why we never find any modern blowhole whales in all old burials across the entire world in all old paleozoic and mesozoic marine and landside burials. As at that time periods of the distant past the hoof mammal ancestry did not have as broodstock the whales as further to the water adaptations back the day.
This is why for example the species Equus with already thousands of mating partners had various speciated variations like the 3 zebra species adapted to the african savannah, the horse species adapted to the asian steppes and the wildass/donkey species adapted to desert mountains to the point the new variations became unable to have grandchildren capacities together. Mules, zonkeys and zorses are for that reason infertile hybrids due to speciation.
This sheds a light how 1 ancestral ape broodstock with thousands of mating partners had in 1 adaptational direction the chimp as ape variation to the jungle lifestyle and another ape adaptation to the savannah hunting lifestyle called humans.
So are humans the 1 ape adaptation to the savannah, where the chimps is 1 ape adaptation to the jungle.
"fairy tale"
You have no idea about the topic. You do not understand that info gain is dailyday observed by gene mutations, you have no clue that whales do not breath underwater because they only have mammal landlung to water gene info adaptation and lack any designed organ as foreign info created into them and you lack the knowledge about speciation like Equus to donkey and horse or ape to chimp and human.
@varyolla435
What drives such individuals to exist in water......... = that is your question. A person can spend their lives working around water and not have an impetus for evolutionary change because = they can still go back to land if they want. So being in water alone offers no incentive to adapt.
If however something occurred with the environment so as to cause humans to abandon living on land then after a time it is possible that generations of people raised in an aquatic environment might begin to evolve in certain ways given that environmental stimulus.
Moral: there are people today whose ancestors spend much of their lives in the ocean being divers who rely upon obtaining their food by harvesting the ocean floor.
Consequently study has shown whereby they compared to "dry land people" have developed larger than normal spleens so that their bloodstream can retain more oxygen = allowing them to hold their breaths longer than normal - which facilitates their ability to work under water for longer periods of time. That = is an example of an evolutionary adaptation as a consequence of environment.
So such change is not "purposeful" in so much as it was sought out. It rather reflects that somewhere along the line people were born with oversized spleens ----> which allowed them to survive in their environment better ------> which means they were more successful and able to reproduce -----> leading to more children being born with larger spleens = until they now represent the status quo among that population.
Evolution is not about "changing into something else." It is about = changes which occur for some reason which prove beneficial in some manner. With enough such changes then over time = new species can potentially arise within a compatible environment.
@barrycharlesbrebner
When you think about the theory of evolution: i suggest you ask yourself some questions in order to scrutinize what you are being told. Here are a few questions, to get you started thinking for yourself.ā¤
Why are there very distinct animal kinds? If things evolved one from another.
If evolution were true, should we not see all sorts of life forms in transitional states of evolving? But we do not, we see very specific, very distinct kinds of animals.
What would cause things to stop evolving, at a point of being a very distinct animal kind?
If humans evolved from chimps, then why did some chimps stop evolving and remained chimps while others continued to evolve into humans?
Why can we not bread with chimps, if we evolved from them?
Same with all other animal kinds, why can they not bread with each other, if they evolved from each other? Dogs, can only bread with dogs, cats can only bread with cats, cattle can only bread with cattle, and so on.
Why do we not see any animal evolving any new body parts today? We do not see animals starting to grow more legs, or ears, or eyes, or anything.
Why do we not see animals either beginning to change or in the process of changing? Like, we do not see a part leg, or a part eye, or a part ear, starting to form or in the process of forming at all.
Why do we not find transitionary fossils, if everything evolved slowly over time? If this were the case then there should be plenty of fossil evidence of this, instead of very specific, distinct animal fossils being found all the time.
Where did "the stuff" come from, that people say everything evolved from?
Is it possible that anything could come into existence by itself, or create itself?
How can any thing exist?
How could everything exist all by itself, and then evolve into all the amazing things that we see today?
Could the theory of evolution be wrong?
Do humans ever make mistakes, and ever think things that are not true?
Is it possible that evolution did not happen?
Are you willing to be honest with yourself and with other people? A willingness to admit mistakes, faults. Willing to express your true thoughts and feelings even in tough situations.
Is the truth important to you?
Are you afraid to ask questions? In order to seek out the truth and nothing but the truth.
Are you willing to accept or settle for anything, other than the truth?

"When you think about the theory of evolution: i suggest you ask yourself some questions in order to scrutinize what you are being told."
Sure.
"Here are a few questions, to get you started thinking for yourself.ā¤"
Sure we will see:
"Why are there very distinct animal kinds?"
The term kinds is religious and not scientific. Like the directly mentioned dovekind in Genesis 7 on the board of the ark of noah in the idea as the dovekind flies away and back with a twig in the beak to show that the flood was done, which is not referring why doves are mere pigeon variations and like any 12,000 beak bird species (more than mammals) still just 1 beakbird.
In reality all beakbird species came from 1 teethbird broodstock in the early jurassic time period.
In creationism if you assume created kinds so called bara min in hebrew ×ÖøÖ¼×ØÖø×ā, ×Ö“××ā, You have there that birdness of a dove is basically "faked" so that their birdness is not the ancestry stock to deform it to doveness, but a direct deception to mislead in thinking that doves would be bird descendants, but that it would only be made (also genetically with their heridity record in their DNA incl. saurian teeth genes) to look like them as fake and to fool people with saurian scale and teeth base DNA in doves even today.
A more direct example is leviticus 11 : 22 Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind
In the hebrew original of the bible the Harbeh, (Ha)Solam and Hagab brood stocks
( ×ÖøÖ½×Ö·×ØÖ°×Ö¶Ö¼Ö£× & ×Ö·×”ÖøÖ¼×Ö°×¢ÖøÖ× & ×Ö¶×Öø×ÖøÖ× ) migratory/swarming locusts of Egypt. As resident region there.
The different swarming times and danger for the harvest and to be allowed to consume the locusts as food to avoid starvation was the education back the day.
Creationists claim therfore: locusts, bald locusts and grasshoppers (or the 3 "breeding" "variations" of the swarming locusts Harbeh, (Ha)Solam and Hagab) shall be created kinds / after his/their kind by God there. Or the bible would with "Kind" not be literally word by word correct.
So basically: The biblical God spoke an incantation spell and "poof" there was a bald locust/ or more precise the Hagab swarming locust breed (depending on translation from the old hebrew dialect) and it shall be absolute word by word true
To speak "Kinds" into existence by God's magic/miracles INSTEAD of actually observable mechanism in big technical details (like why breeds of locusts have "locustness" or "insectness" for specific mechanical brood reasons).
However REALITY itself shows ALSO observable that locusts, grasshoppers, kathylids, crickets and all swarming locust species of egypt from Solam to Hagab etc. are evolved variations of Orthoptera locusts and subclades of insects, anyway.
This is why it is observable (and also readable in the DNA as directly readable record today as well not only in the fossils that just independently confirm it).
That is the reason why bald locusts and grasshoppers are not only still locusts (as their variations) but why locusts in general are ALSO still insects.
As insect subsub-variations. That is why evolution is true and the bible authors making up the bible did not have a clue about detailed and rocksolid biology.
All animals are still choanozoa cell clusters.
" If things evolved one from another."
Creatures do not swippswapp into eachother. The diversity comes from hierachical splitting of broodstocks into more and more subclades of variations. This is why all 12,000 bird species are still birds from 1 single ancestral species.
1 species had 2 then 4 then 8 then 16 then 32 then 64. Without ever a chicken morphing into a duck.
"If evolution were true, should we not see all sorts of life forms in transitional states of evolving?"
Transitional stages in the speed of evolution are parents between grandparents and their own children. If you zoom out 100,000 generations you see that gradual changes occured. In humans for example 375,000 generations to have a flattened muzzle and snout to flatten human face.
"But we do not, we see very specific, very distinct kinds of animals."
All animals are still choanozoa cell clusters. As all animals share with 1 choanozoa cell broodstock ancestor and diversified into million of subvariations with ants and zebras.
"What would cause things to stop evolving, at a point of being a very distinct animal kind?"
There is no Stopping in evolution.
"If humans evolved from chimps,"
FALSE evolution forbids that chimps could swippswapp into their own cousin species humans. Humans and chimps are both equal speciated variation of the shared common ape hominid ancestral broodstock.
That means the ape ancestor had 2 adaptations. 1 to the jungle lifestyle which is the modern chimp and 1 ape adaptation to the open savannah and hunting lifestyle: the human.
"then why did some chimps stop evolving and remained chimps while others continued to evolve into humans?"
Chimps morphing into humans or humans morphing into chimps would violate and disproof evolution immediately as both are equal speciated variations of the same ape ancestor. Exactly like horses morphing into donkeys or donkeys morphing into horses would disproof evolution, because horses and donkeys and zebras are all 3 equal variations of Equus species as ancestral broodstock before any horses and donkeys and zebras existed.
"Why can we not bread with chimps, if we evolved from them?"
We did not evolve from chimps, we share a common ancestor. And you do not get how speciation works.
"Dogs, can only bread with dogs,"
Dogs can also breed with wolves, but not with bushdogs and mane wolves due to speciation.
Speciation happens due to genetic drift of the population stocks and imbalances of the centromeric protein binding partners.
A good example are Equus variations. Przewalski Horse has 66 chromosome, Horses 64, Donkeys 62, Onagers have 56, Northern&Southern Kulan 56 and 54, Grevy's Zebra 46; Plains Zebra 44; Montain Zebra32 and why hybrids such as zonkeys or mules or zorses do not lack own offspring capacities.
This is why breed foals like mule and zonkey and zorse foals are INFERTILE.
Due to bigger gaps in centromeric inbalances due to speciation from Equus ancestor species.
As the horses are the steppe adaptation of the same Equus broodstock, while the donkeys are the arid mountain ones and the zebras to the african savannah ones.
"Why do we not see any animal evolving any new body parts today?"
All bodyparts are always variations of older ones this is why whale flippers are hooffeet also genetically while sealflippers are clawfeet while penguinflippers are birdwings.
The rest later when the comment function works again. We can see that you do not understand why evolution is an observation. You think we talk about animal swippswappery instead of observable breeding laws and heritage mechanism.
@maylingng4107
Why are there very distinct animal kinds? If things evolved one from another.
Species evolve based on the challenges from nature to survive. This natural challenge is not uniform, but varies by location, climate, predators, being isolated, etc.
If evolution were true, should we not see all sorts of life forms in transitional states of evolving? But we do not, we see very specific, very distinct kinds of animals.
Evolution is a fact. Every generation of every species is a transitional species. Meaning that they are in transition. You do not understand the process of evolution, which occurs at the molecular level, each generation is molecularly different from the predecessor generation. Evolution does not leave gaps, it is continuous. For example, you pour red paint into a barrel full of blue paint, In a continuous manner the blue paint begins to turn pinkish, pink, bluish and then blue.
What would cause things to stop evolving, at a point of being a very distinct animal kind?
Nothing! Evolution does not stop, ever. The small molecular changes in each new generation add up, and at one point the species can no longer breed with the starting generation of species -- at this point we recognize a new species.
If humans evolved from chimps, then why did some chimps stop evolving and remained chimps while others continued to evolve into humans?
Humans did not evolve from chimps. Chimps and humans had a common ancestor, not a human nor a chimp.
Why can we not bread with chimps, if we evolved from them?
Because chimps and humans are different species. Very few species can breed with other (but has to be very close) species. Example: lions and tigers can breed, (because genetically they are very close) but the offspring is short lived and usually sterile.
*Same with all other animal kinds, why can they not bread with each other, if they evolved from each other? Dogs, can only bread with dogs, cats can only bread with cats, cattle can only bread with cattle, and so on.
Same answer as immediately above. There is no such definition in biology as a "KIND". Kind is an invention of creationists, same type as you, so they can avoid and sidestep the definition SPECIES, which they are unable to do.
Why do we not see any animal evolving any new body parts today? We do not see animals starting to grow more legs, or ears, or eyes, or anything.
Again, you have no idea what evolution is. Species evolve all body parts simultaneously based on the challenges presented by nature.
Why do we not see animals either beginning to change or in the process of changing? Like, we do not see a part leg, or a part eye, or a part ear, starting to form or in the process of forming at all.
Same answer as above. As I explained, that is not how evolution works.
Why do we not find transitionary fossils, if everything evolved slowly over time? If this were the case then there should be plenty of fossil evidence of this, instead of very specific, distinct animal fossils being found all the time.
Same answer as before. We have unearthed more than several million fossils, some are very similar (close to identical between two species). Fossilization is rare, and requires special circumstances. 117 billion humans (our species that lived and died on earth) but we only found about 6,000 human fossils --- that is how rare fossilization is.
Where did "the stuff" come from, that people say everything evolved from?
Which people say what? What is the "stuff"? All species are composed of chemicals; the first species were composed of chemicals also with the aid of an energy source. We have duplicated some parts of this process already.
Is it possible that anything could come into existence by itself, or create itself?
No. That is the nonsense you and fellow creationists claim --- so answer your own question.
How can any thing exist?
Look into the mirror.
How could everything exist all by itself, and then evolve into all the amazing things that we see today?
Same answer as all the answers above.
Could the theory of evolution be wrong?
You would have to disprove all the incredible amount of evidence for evolution, and find a different theory with more evidence, which is highly unlikely.
Do humans ever make mistakes, and ever think things that are not true?
Humans make mistakes all the time. Didn't you just make a gigantic mistake by listing your childish and no evidence comment and conclusions?
Is it that evolution did not happen?
No. Evolution happened and is happening.
*Are you willing to be honest with yourself and with other people? A willingness to admit mistakes, faults. Willing to express your true thoughts and feelings even in tough situations.
Is the truth important to you?*
The truth is very important -- that is why I wrote this comment. You do not have and cannot find a single piece of evidence that refutes evolution, can you?
Are you afraid to ask questions? In order to seek out the truth and nothing but the truth.
No, but you are afraid of the answers.
Are you willing to accept or settle for anything, other than the truth?
No.
----- You really need an education in biology, because you have none.
Can you name a single piece of evidence that refutes evolution?
Can you name a single science organization anywhere on the face of the earth that rejects evolution?
What was the last (if any) biology book that you read?
Where do you think the 5 billion species (9 million alive today) originated from?

@gn3441
@Steadfast nEasy. LOL! Do you realize that that video is speaking of million of years? How do you fit the bible's generations on that time span?
I will now explain some of the video's inaccuracies:
1 The Cambrian "explosion" took millions of years.
2 It looked like a sudden explosion because:
a) At the time there was no previous fossil evidence. That evidence has been found.
b) There is a record bias because soft animals don't fossilize easily.
3 Most earth fossil record is devoid of complex organism because it took life billions of years to change the planet's chemical environment. Complex life requires oxygen.
4 The fossil record is fragmentary because fosilization is a rare phenomenon.
5 That "Scientific dissent from Darwinism" comes from the Discovery Institute! I bet those pseudo scientists will gladly accept your donation to "the cause of God".
@RandallWilks
@@fendergilbraltar5158 Noah's Flood? You must be joking.
Creationist Hoaxes - #4 Noah and a "Great Flood". Talk about "whoppers", this story has so many absurdities one hardly knows where to start. The first is a question as to why an omnipotent 'creator', who had simply willed everything into existence, could not have simply 'willed' evildoers out of existence. It was certainly not necessary to cause so much "collateral damage" that would have included children, pregnant women and their unborn fetuses, not to mention kittens, puppies and other innocuous creatures. He certainly had no problem with selective 'hits' in other parts of the bible, as in Genesis chapter 38 when God slays Er and Onan, sons of Judah because they pissed him off.
Especially ludicrous is that Noah, at age 500 (WTF???) had two sons. Then Noah, aged 600, with his two 100+ year old sons and their wives build a wooden boat half the size of the Titanic. They did this with no prior experience and since this would have been well before the Iron Age, they would have lacked the proper tools for the job. One need only look at the construction of Ken Ham's "authentic" replica of the Ark to realize how preposterous this biblical story is, and that is just the beginning.
Then it is asserted that they filled that ship with two of every kind of animal and floated around for a year before the reappearance of land. Such a craft loaded with animals of every variety and staffed with just 6 people must have been a real hellhole. Remember, Noah (or was it Utnapishtim?) released a crow (or was it a raven?) and it did not return. Can you blame it?
There are people whose chief occupation in life is to explain away ridiculous claims. Those dealing with religions are called apologists. Those employed by political figures are called "Spin Doctors". Quite likely they are one and the same.
Those people usually pass on questions like "where did all that water come from?" or "where did it go? instead makeing claims that all fossils are of creatures drowned by the flood ( never mind that humans, mastodons and dinosaurs never appear in the same deposits).
Or another one that seashells, normally found on the ocean floor, are found at high elevation on Mt. Everest. (This of course ignores the fact that the Indian subcontinent originated off the coast of Africa and tektonic plate movement carried it northward to impact the Eurasian land mass. It was that event that closed off the ancient Tethys Sea and created the Himalayan Mountains by pushing the former sea floor ever higher. It is still pushing those mountains higher causing numerous earthquakes in the area. The height of Mt Everest increases about 2 inches a year due to those pressures.).
Then there is the apologists claim that the Grand Canyon was created by the rapid draining away of those flood waters. (This ignores the fact that rapidly moving water tends to cut straight channels, NOT the meandering curves of the Colorado River. It also ignores many other geologic facts, including that one of the canyons many layers is Coconinio Sandstone, dated about 260 mya, composed of wind blown sand, basically petrified sand dunes that contain footprints of land animals.)

"The meaning of science is to study God's creation." No the meaning of science is to provide toolsets in allignment with reality for explanation and especially exploitation reasons. Like electromagnetic theory to provide insight in how to built lasers to provide Disc and smartphone technology. So does evolution theory provide insight how breeding laws work, what viral infections caused scars in the genome throughout history, which regulatory or frameshift mutations EXACTLY cause organs and proteins to deform to new functionality like the swimmbladder gullet bag to store oxygen in brakish waters to be lungs as organs. To understand the sox2 mutation steps into subsets of fish gullet bag bladder organs to the lung as deformation.
"I would like to point out that OUR chemistry, biology, physics, etc. are based off of God has created,"
The activity to create originated in a time long AFTER chemical and biologically processes ALREADY existed. With the development of thinking organ complexity. The activity to create does not pre-date anything you did mention.
"and that time is a notion that we have created."
Humans did not create time. I have no idea why you confuse humans with fantasy wizards.
"We see ample evidence of design in the natural world"
We could in priciple see design (purposeful/intended goal choices) in the world like in actual created worlds such as video games for human life focus in particular.
Like when you have in created worlds like MMoRPGs by whole teams of marketing and expert creators to lift the addiction factors of those second life games - implemented laws that you can't target villagers and/or other players in towns with your weapons. Or where you get resurrected at your last safepoint. In reality you don't wake up after a carcrash in your bed as nothing has happened.
So in created worlds we observe with Roleplaying computer games when someone tries to murder someone specific moral created laws do not allow you to perform such acts as this is a major recognizing factor of design for purpose X (designed moral implementation not to bend).
"when you have design, you have a designer."
We do not have design in our world with exception of the designed world by humans (as real existing designers) like the videogame worlds to boost addiction to fitt the narrative of a second "better" life where you have pet dragons and pet unicorns than the life people have with many worries and worktime and responsibilities and so on.
You completely miss the point of the selling factors of christian mythology of a paradise, as well.
Because the world is NOT designed, a designed place idea called paradise/heaven for humans exist as a promise called salvation for that very reason.
The "happy message" of christianity with the savior claims is to counter the lack of design in the world.
That it is not so obvious for indoctrinated (emotionally manipulated) people they also invented a sinfall story so that the cognitive dissonance of the lack of design for human focus is put out of the mind and under the carpet.
You did not see through this scam in your life.
It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled Mark Twain.
"And that designer is the one we call God."
There is no designer. In reality the activity to design is also a historical young activity that originated billions of years AFTER chemistry and physics already existed.
@maylingng4107
All living organisms (and all those who are extinct) have similar genetic alignments, simply because they all evolved from a common ancestor. Vestigial organs are organs, tissues or cells in a body which are no more functional the way they were in their ancestral form of the trait. It is authentication of evolution and hence, were helpful in explaining adaptation. Such a structure can arise due to gene mutation which causes a change in the proteins.
Genetic mutations can be harmful, beneficial and (most of them neutral. The beneficial mutations enhance the organism's ability to survive and flourish. The fossil record are (millions of fossils unearthed) represent snapshots in time only, since fossilization is very rare and requires specific circumstances. Every species that ever lived and that lives today is a transitional form -- meaning that it is in transition. Each generation of every species is different from the predecessor generation of the species at the molecular level. As you are different from your parents. There is nothing preprogrammed! For each generation, slight errors are made in the copying of the genome, thus evolution occurs at the molecular level in populations and not in individuals.
"Observable science only" is a ridiculous and fake nonsense by YOU and fellow creationists. Most of the science is not observable. Have you seen an electron? or have you seen a far away galaxy in the universe (for example, a galaxy named HD1 has been crowned the new farthest object in the cosmos. Located some 13.5 billion light-years away). Most of the science is detected by other means than observation. Speaking of observation...... have you observed your god, biblical creation, heaven or hell? So then, according to you, they do not exist, is that not right?
No cats do not stay cats, and dogs do not stay dogs. Can you name a single excavation where dogs and cat remains were found that were more than 10 million years old? Given the fact that life existed on this planet for about 3.5 billion years, where did the dogs and cats come from? And each animal appears in a specific geological period, and there are no samples before that appearance; where did these animals descent from? Or is your god busy and pulling a new creation every couple of years?
You polluted the comment section with a pile of worn-out trash crammed into your brain by the dishonest clergy of your religion. Try to get an education, or at least read one science book!
@walkergarya
Ok, let's break this down. First of all, the fact that certain plants and animals have similar structures is not at all "scientific proof" that they evolved from one another.
<So you assert that Horses and Zebras are seperate "creations" and have no common ancestor? >
Vestigial organs are observed to be structures that have degraded in their functionality, like in these whales.
<Yes. >
Natural selection can only "choose" from a gene pool that already exists. It has NEVER been observed to create new genetic information, such as would be required to change gills into lungs, fins into arms and legs, or scales into feathers, no matter HOW much time you want to imagine.
<That is true, it is mutations and genetic drift that provides new mixes of genes for Natural Selection to work with. >
Likewise, genetic mutations are a degradation of genetic information in living things, not the creation of new genetic material.
<Wrong. We have many examples of novel mutations generating new beneficial genes. >
The fact that the fossil record is massively deficient of supposed transitional forms has even been admitted by some evolutionists who care to be honest.
<Again wrong. We have many examples of fossils that fall between previously defined species definitions. >
The comparatively minuscule amount of supposed "transitional forms" presented can just as easily be described as animals with structures specifically designed to function in adjacent environments.
<Nope. Before you can assert "design" you need to provide evidence for your designer, I have seen nothing of the type yet. >
Observable science has shown that although adaptation occurs as a process that has been pre-programmed into the DNA of living things, there are clearcut limitations, and that bacteria have ALWAYS been bacteria, dogs have ALWAYS been dogs, cats have ALWAYS been cats and Darwin's finches have ALWAYS been finches.
<Wrong again. Don't you ever get tired of being wrong? Mutations do provide new genetic material, these are NOT "pre-programmed". Dogs evolved from wolves some 50000 years ago and wolves evolved from earlier canids a few million years ago. Cats are a branch of carnivora and share a common ancestor with dogs, bears and even seals that lived about 55 million years ago. >
That is what we see in OBSERVABLE science.
<Nope. We see much more when we OBSERVE the genomes of these species, we see much more when we OBSERVE the fossils of these species. Biological Evolution IS Observable Science, unlike your science denying creationism. >
And as for embryonic development, I have no idea what they think that "proves." That is just a fanciful idea.
<You are correct, you have NO clue what you are talking about. Aspects of our evolutionary history are revealed in the embryonic development. Human embryos develop a tail that gets reabsorbed. Dolphin embryos develop hind flippers that also get reabsorbed. Human embryos develop a yolk sack that is a vestige of our distant ancestors that laid eggs. >
This presentation is just an oversimplified theory which immediately breaks down as soon as you scratch the surface.
<No. Your misrepresentations do NOT break down the Theory of Evolution, they only show your ignorance on this matter. >
Sorry, but you need just as much FAITH to accept this as you do any other belief system.
<Another lie. The Theory of Evolution stands on a huge body of evidence that your lies and dissmissals do not refute.
The Theory of Evolution is the foundation of all modern biology, creationism is science denial and ignorant dogma. >
