This is another installment of the ‘Evolution is a Lie’ series by Righteous Response. The previous video is here.
In this episode, a guy from the UK argues that evolution is not science.
I’m not sure what Malcolm Bowden’s credentials are, but judging by what he says I doubt he’s qualified to teach 5 year olds biology nevermind being used as a poster pensioner for creationism. It’s telling that this guy is the best they’ve got. To give you an idea of what kind of ’scientist’ he is, take a look at his paper on Geocenterism where he offers Scientific evidence to prove that the universe revolves around the earth.
LINK.
Interestingly, the original paper was removed from his website when someone on YouTube pointed it out, but Google cache is our friend!
Okay, so the guy isn’t really a scientist, has never really studied the area but he could still be right yes? No. Concluding that evolution happened once, in the past and never again is just false. His entire argument is based upon the idea that we can not see evolution taking place right now. We can, we do and we will continue to. Case closed.
I don’t think I’ll post any more of these, they’re starting to get a little boring, even if they do amuse. One one hand it’s good to highlight how ridiculous their position is but on the other, I’m probably giving them too much exposure but if they do ever prove they are not morons come up with something more intelligible, I might reconsider.
As funny as these videos are, they also makes me wonder about how big a step backwards we seem to be taking. One could blame the educational system but I think that’s too big a let off for these people. Schooling is one thing but this goes beyond not knowing your times table.
What’s upsetting is that these people know they have no case and are spreading mistruths and downright lies to try and discredit anything that goes against their belief system. For most of us we can see through it but I feel sorry for the people they are able to convince. You need only look at their forums to see what a terrible effect their propaganda is having. It’s so very sad.

[…] world is six days was no mean feat. I admit it - I’m rather proud of that particular miracle. But these evolutionists seem to think they have a better explanation and that <snigger> it took longer than a mere […]

I posted some great responses to this dickhole, and he censored me cause I disagreed. Glad he gets 1/5 on ALL his videos. He banned me from his site too. Got to righteousresponders.com and everyone spam it to death. Completely ruin it. It’ll be hilarious.

Apparently Malcolm Bowden is a civil engineer! Too funny
I was banned for re-posting a pro-evolutionist’s *ahhhhh!* links that had been Edited out ‘for review’ *roll eyes* … but SteveB must have decided that the punishment was too great (hee hee) and so I was allowed back after about a day and a half. Still haven’t seen those links again by the way.
No don’t ruin it! It’s great entertainment - for those of us who ‘don’t get out much’! But please do enter the fray - the more the merrier.

Let me see if I have this right. A few Billion years ago we were all just swimming around in our kittle pools of slim and one of the single cell drops of goo says hey lets divide and become multi cell drops of goo. Of course we were already highly intelligent so no one asked, hey “what’s multi cell” we didn’t need to ask just knew. Now after a few million years like that someone yells “hey lets grow a tail” here again we knew what a tail was already so there was no guess work. This happens all the way till one day someone got bold and said “let’s grown some legs” and of course we just went and did it automatically knowing we need knees and where they go and which way they bend all these things were just common sense which you want us all to believe we were full of from the early single cell days. To shorten this up we would go through all these steps all the way till we get to where we are. You want us to believe we automatically knew our nose is best place in the center of our face pointing down so we don’t drown in the rain and we can use it for smelling. Oh then there are our eyes, ears, mouth, arms, elbows, Wrists, Hands with Thumbs and fingers all with joints to make them easy to use. Then there is the neck, back with all the vertebrae and nerves going through them to every organ in the body oh wait did we make the organs yet hmm what comes first lungs or legs? Then the hips and your Butt now there is a good pick for a location cause. I don’t know about your but taking a crap with my butt in front was a bite messed up a lot of good shoes oh wait we don’t have feet yet well good thing we moved it because we would mess up a lot of shoes. Why is your little pee pee where it is and not of your forehead? At least up there no one can kick it. If ya got to go while driving just roll down the window. Ewe then there is sunburn and bug bites hmm good thing we put it down there at least it is protected and warm. This is just the start there is the complex structure of cells, neurons, nerves muscles, ligaments etc etc. All this that the body has you want me to believe was Evolved from a slim pool and not created by God. Do you know what your mind and body goes through just to try and catch a pencil that is rolling off your table or desk we all have done that? Millions of actions and decisions are made. Sorry I don’t by it. Just looking at the complexity of 1 cell and everything it does NO WAY was this just an accident in a slim pool. If thinking of a body part is to hard examine the complexity of a leaf or blade of grass.

Mic the thought that god or gods had anything to do with life on earth , is even more unrealistic to buy into .
Let me see there is some super being out there still creating everything ..hmmmmmmm !!?? ##?? .
He`s still creating global warming and all sorts , hmmmmmm ?????? !!.
No sorry evolution seems far more likely .

Well Mic, you do have an odd view of the nature of nature. For you EVERYTHING is an intentional act? You ridicule evolution because for you the creatures who evolve do so by their own intention, and you know that single celled creatures can’t really intend anything? Remarkable!
So a plant has to “think” “I’d better flower now” before it can flower?
I think your world view is EXTREMELY interesting! I think it may be technically paranoid, but it really is very interesting.
I’d like to hear more!
Cheers!

There has to be some kind of decision making process other wise we would have people “evolved” in every conceivable form. In fact the fossil record would show failures as well as successes such as a human or “half human” with ears on top of its head of feet on backwards etc. So yes somewhere someone or something has to be making decisions. The case of the plant you used in your analogy that has a process it goes through before budding into a flower. Also it always puts forth the same kind of a flower. I do believe some what in micro evaluation but that’s about the extent of it.
There are a lot of people in the Evaluation field that has come to the conclusion they have been wrong about Evaluation.
Darwin him self said, if his theory were true the fossil record would be so full of these fossils that people would be tripping over them every time they walked out the back door

Seems you have a problem beleiving in God well I am not going to get into that argument Gods existence and judgments are real and close weather you do or don’t. Your not beleiving slows nothing and stops nothing. Try researching for your self do not use books from other people who may or may not believe. Use historical records things both sides agree is part of history go from there. Start by praying and saying ok God I am searching for the truth and nothing less and set out on that study closing out all others. Then after you have something besides a gut feeling or a book that was written by Hitler or Carl Max or some such moron. We all can have a reasonable debate. One thing that always happens is the unbeliever always resorts to calling God and the believer names when they get frustrated they never can have a good honest debate. Honesty starts with ones self agree to be honest to your self first.

Where is the life on Mars, why did not something whatever it might be evolve on Mars? That is a serious question that those that love evolution should come to terms with. In my view we have not found life on Mars because; life does not evolve and I would go even beyond that and state nothing evolves whatsoever.
I would like us to keep looking and hopefully one day you will come to the realization that life does not come from thin air, it never did and it never will. But you can keep dreaming
What does it matter if you don’t like the answer to the ‘where did we come from’ question. We should accept the most logical answer until we find an answer that holds more logical prowess.
As for me, I look around and ask where does life come from today…well it seems to come from other life forms …seems to me with lack of a better logical response…its reasonable to say life (today) comse from life forms. So it stands to reason that we must of came from something that was itself alive for that is what we see before us and that cannot be too far off track logically. But to the evolutionist that would be implying there is a God and because they are bent on believing there is no God (even if it’s a fact that God does exist precisely as stated to mankind) then that cannot be so. What is the problem with God being in the picture, I don’t understand, this same God has afforded us free will, we don’t have to serve him but we must answer to him and his message is that this ride will be over someday and at the end of the ride there will be a few questions for you to answer based on what you have been told throughout you entire life. We say he is not real He says we will confess that He is real… I say let’s wait and see, for I think He means business.
Yet we are feed this illogical theory that life came from the big bang or from some single cell thing that they don’t even know where it came from? That makes no sense yet so many so called smart people who tend to mock religious people buy into this theory as if it’s a religion. And this admiration for this theory is based on the vastly complex life forms that they see and have dug up over time. I fail to see how one connects complex life to things such as chemicals and temperature changes and right combinations and mere chance. We still don’t fully understand the human body yet we are bold enough to say it came from nowhere…are we kidding
In essence the theory of evolution is a story of incredible luck and imagination way beyond the luck and imagination found in any religion the mock.

oh boy i like how people who criticize evolution get it all wrong. Point being EVOLUTION DOES NOT EXPLAIN THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES. There is about 200 different theories that explain that all of which i think are losely supported because i believe in a higgher power. Anyways evolution explains that species can change over time. And ofcourse the have tracked the evolution of tousands of species over the years including your various species of dogs who all come from similar ancestors but divereged into many species. Those are actual examples no one can avoid, they simply prove evolution. If one wants to make an claim why dont you say God created all different speices via evolution. Do you really think God would just synthesis organismsÉ Dont you think he has asomething better in midn say an interesting phenomenon that has captivated biologist for years. Anyways b4 you criticize the base of Biology you need to understand it. Evolution 101: if i have 2 individuals i kill one that is evolution–. its a change in genetic frequencies over time. The people less adaptive die more often and thus genetic frequency changes favour allies giving better fitness (number of contributions to future generations). NO one can argue with that. Plz come up with soemthing that disproves the tracked examples of evolution and actualy adress the principles behind evolution, not sugesting it points to the origin of species.

plz note my comments don`t only target religious people, it also targets those that defend evolution by making lame excusses liek there is no god and what not. There is a higher power unless you can prove one of the 200 or so theories explaining the origins of species. Species can change overtime, but a higher power created them.
