Great educational videos countering creationism
I found these videos that do what I could only think of a great idea....( yes there is alot but I want to include all of them in here for the laziest of people)
basically it counterattacks all of these statements made by creationists with valid facts this is not a flame thread if you don't like what is being said please argue it with valid supported and credible facts not just mindless dribbling insults ( I am not a strawman for you to attack) no need to watch all the videos, just start with a few ( if you are bored by science then you might not find this entertaining, but at least give it a try) The person who made these videos does a great job and counters many people ( from regular youtuber to a people with PHDs....or so they say....) The series is called why do people laugh at creationist again I will say this is not a flame thread so keep the insults out it is purely for educational purposes.... part 1

*Sigh*
Honestly, I have to tell you this, but Most religious vs science threads often turn into either flames or heated debates. but in all honesty, I still debate the credibility of the two.

Who cares about religion and science.
Like if we discover the meaning of life. We like all say "ohhhh that was it, right" And then we continue our lives. Just enjoy life is my science and religion.

Series looks interesting. I'll watch when I have time, but for now I'd just like to say - the problem is not a matter of creationists can't be beaten with facts (They are, every single day), it's that they do not accept facts as proof. The whole point of religion is that reality is ineffectual in an argument - faith is all.

I'm not quite sure what I think of technology, but science and faith could be very well interconnected somehow... Just as Adam and God was very well interconnected somehow (if i got that statement correctly)

After a couple of years the future generation will say the same thing about our generation. But I was just saying that "finding the meaning of life etc", isn't that usefull if you can't enjoy life. I'm not saying I don't like science and changes of the world. But we most remember that people will change also.

I love me some science. I love me some God. Religion....not so much.
Honestly, the bible probably has been subjected to so many mistranslations and edits that it would take forever to count. Not to mention that the bible was written by man...and not God himself. About the world flooding thing: I once remember reading (I'll try to find the source) the word that was translated to "world" could also be used for land (at a local level), nation, country, etc etc. Why is one so offensive to the other? It would take a couple of hours to sit here and type out all of my thoughts on the matter, so for now I'm gonna leave it at that.

And why can you only look at the Dark Ages? You don't think there were times of ancient prosperity with a lacking of science? You don't think people can be happy closer to nature? Just because we've grown up spoiled to it, doesn't mean it would be painful to grow up without it. I love technology just as much as the next person, but don't tell me I couldn't live without it. If creationism is such a joke, why take the time and effort to debunk it? Why care about the origin of life? What purpose does it serve? None. It doesn't help anyone to dwell on it, it won't unlock any secrets to the future. Smug, superior complexed science worshippers are no better than self-righteous fanatics.

You are confusing being able to literally survive without technology at a time when there was no knowledge of it, to being able to live as comfortable without it as you would with it, in 2008. Technology doesn't usually exist because we could do without it, it exists because of the precise opposite, its needed. Secondly, I hate smug atheists as much as smug religious people, I'm with you there. To me, creationism is so pathetic that it's honestly not worth my time. I don't understand why people would struggle so hard to debunk it, when it debunks itself. There's proof to suggest it isn't true, like the bible being contradictory to dinosaurs, so why even bother? It's like arguing with someone who has tried to deny the holocaust, why bother? They're idiots.
