Part of a series of videos exposing the funny stupidity of creationists and why they deserve to be laughed at. In each case the creationist statements are shown to be outrageously stupid by even the most rudimentary knowledge of science.
In this episode Jonathan Wells of the creationist organization The Discovery Institute is taken to task over his bizarre assertions that the inability of a burst cell to spontaneously reassemble means that abiogenesis must be impossible. The bacteria is a modern organism....the end product of 4bn years of evolution. It is a complex organism and as such can compete in the biosphere using the fast reproduction 'strategy'. The reason bacteria are around today is they are vigorous reproducers. Jonathan Wells seems to be attacking the proposal that 'MODERN bacteria were the first life on Earth', which is in reality a straw man that exists nowhere outside of Wells's mind. The reasoning is similar to that used by Ken Ham, that you don't get abiogenesis from blended frogs. All of this seems to be ignoring the key factor that the biosphere is a harsh competition. There is simply no niche where abiogenesis could get a grip where it simply would not be out competed by life that has been around for 4bn yrs.

What is a kind?
Well, there is a popular imagery that the Ark was a tiny or big boat the way we see them today. I try to point out that just because people lived in ancient times doesn't mean they were not creative and intelligent. Look at the box car train today, it's very do-able! Sort of like a floating zoo.
We have different races: White people will have white children, Black people will have black children. If a white and black have children, it will be mixed, not evolved.
Same thing with brown and black bears. If two different species of bear mate (grizzly and polar), it will STILL be a bear. That offspring will not go on to breed with a lion or shift its shape to adapt because it's still a bear.
No deffinition, no boundary of 'kind'.
Chimps and humans share a defect gulo-gene, ERV's and mutations in those ERV's. Cytochrome C is equal while it is not in other animals.
That means Chimps and humans are the same kind?
Are a lion and a tiger the same kind? Why or why not? Are Homo neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens the same kind? And Homo habilis and Australophitecus afarensis? And what about Homo sapiens and Australopithecus afarensis?
that one word is the answer to y u can find the same species in comepltly different continents (but the species will be of a different type, like lions and kittens)
Now I know you'll say they are true but lets do an experiment.
Say there was a global flood & God told you to build an ark & put on it 2 of every animal in the world & you could only take 7 people w/ you including yourself. Now do really think that you could do such a task all by yourself???
Course I know the Ark myth is full of fallacies that guarantee her to fail.
