Description:
Richard Dawkins interviews Dan Dennett for "The Genius of Charles Darwin", the Channel 4 UK TV program which won British Broadcasting Awards' "Best Documentary Series" of 2008. Buy the full 3-DVD set of uncut interviews, over 18 hours, in the RichardDawkins.net store:http://richarddawkins.net/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=85This footage was shot with the intention of editing for a television program.

Apr 19, 2012 - IT'S INTERESTING THAT CARL SAGAN would have acknowledged sequential radio signals in space as evidence of intelligent life sending them, but he wouldn't acknowledge the sequential structure of molecules in DNA (the genetic code) as evidence of an intelligent Cause. Read my popular Internet article, HOW DID MY DNA MAKE ME, and then ask yourself why you don't believe. DNA can't come by chance. It requires already existing DNA or a human genetic engineer in the laboratory to bring about more DNA.

Mogley52 Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - GENETIC AND BIOLOGICAL SIMILARITIES are better explained due to a common Designer Who designed similar functions for similar purposes in the various forms of life. Genetic information, like other forms of information, cannot happen by chance, so this is the best explanation.

Mogley52 Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - NYLON-EATING BACTERIA is not evidence of mutations producing new genetic information. The genes were degraded by mutations and that's how the capability came about. "It is like damaging the interior of a lock so that more and different keys can now unlock it." Read The Internet article NYLON-EATING BACTERIA AND EVOLUTIONARY PROGRESS by biologist and creationist Brian Thomas.

Mogley52 Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - RANDOM GENETIC MUTATIONS caused by the mindless environment are destructive. Even if mutations are not immediately harmful, after enough of them accumulate they will be harmful. And, even if a good mutation does occur, for every good mutation there will be hundreds of harmful ones with the net effect, over time, being harmful to the species as a whole and even causing extinction, not upward evolution. Most biological variations are from new combinations of already existing genes, not mutations.

Mogley52 Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - ALL REAL EVOLUTION ( i.e. varieties of dogs, cats, etc.) in nature is the expression, over time, of already existing genes. Evolution is possible only if there's information (genes) directing it. Only variations of already existing genes are possible, which means only limited evolution and adaptations are possible. Nature has no ability to invent new genes via random mutations caused by random environmental forces. That's evolutionary faith, not science. Read my article, WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS!

Mogley52 Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - NATURAL LIMITS TO EVOLUTION: Only evolution within "kinds" is genetically possible (i.e. varieties of dogs, cats, etc.), but not evolution across "kinds" (i.e. from sea sponge to human). How did species survive if their vital tissues, organs, reproductive systems were still evolving? Read my Pravda Internet article: WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS! I discuss: Punctuated Equilibria, "Junk DNA," genetics, mutations, natural selection, fossils, genetic and biological similarities between species.

Apr 19, 2012 - EINSTEIN CONFIRMED that space and time are just as physical as matter. That's why space and time can be altered by gravity, and space produces particles. Einstein's equations show that the universe couldn't be eternal. It had a beginning. Einstein believed, because of science, in the existence of God behind the origin and order of the universe. He didn't believe in a personal God like Christians do, but he did believe science pointed to the existence of an all powerful and intelligent Creator.

Mogley52 Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - CREATIONISTS RIGHT ABOUT ENTROPY (Internet Article): Entropy occurs in both open and closed systems. In every transfer of energy some of the energy becomes useless. If universe is left to itself, all energy will become useless and the universe cannot sustain any activity. Even in an open system, there must first exist an energy-converting, directing mechanism to develop order, such as when a seed becomes a tree. Spontaneous order from chaos is not possible, not to any significant degree.

Mogley52 Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - SCIENCE SHOWS THE UNIVERSE couldn't sustain itself eternally because of entropy (energy decay, even in an open system). Einstein confirmed that space, matter, time had a beginning! That beginning had to be supernatural because natural laws have no ability to bring the universe into existence from nothing. The supernatural cannot be proved by science but science points to a supernatural intelligence for the origin and order of the universe ~ HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM (Article)

Apr 19, 2012 - HOW DID MY DNA MAKE ME? When you divide a cake, the parts are smaller than the original cake and the cake never gets bigger. When we were a cell and that cell divided, the new cells were the same size as the original cell and we got bigger. New material had to come from somewhere. That new material came from food. The sequence in our DNA directed our mother's food we received in the womb to become new cells forming all the tissues and organs of our body. Read my article: HOW DID MY DNA MAKE ME?

Apr 19, 2012 - NO REAL EVIDENCE FOR DINOSAUR TO BIRD EVOLUTION: Just google the title to access this article published in Russia's Pravda. Also, go to the Internet site ANSWERS IN GENESIS to find out about how true science supports the Bible. Find out answers to questions about dinosaurs, how dinosaurs fit in with the Bible, the age of the earth, the fossil record, etc. Just type into the "search" box on the site your question or topic of interest to find relevant articles.

Apr 19, 2012 - EXPLAINING HOW AN AIRPLANE WORKS doesn't mean no one made the airplane. Explaining how life or the universe works doesn't mean there was no Maker behind them. Natural laws explain how the order in the universe works, but mere undirected natural laws can't explain the origin of that order. Once you have a complete, living cell then the genetic code/mechanisms exist to direct the formation of more cells, but how did the cell naturally originate when no directing code/mechanisms existed in nature?

Apr 19, 2012 - BIG HOLES IN BANG THEORY: Just google the title to access this article published in Russia's Pravda.

Mogley52 Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - WHAT IS SCIENCE? Science simply is knowledge based on observation. No one observed the universe coming by chance or by design, by creation or by evolution. These are positions of faith. The issue is which faith the scientific evidence best supports. Natural laws can explain how an airplane or living cell works, but it's irrational to believe that an airplane or cell originated by undirected natural laws.

Apr 19, 2012 - ALTHOUGH I'M A CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN (Baptist), I no longer believe that the Bible teaches eternal torment or suffering. The Bible teaches eternal punishment, but it's not eternal torment. In my popular Internet article, TRADITIONAL DOCTRINE OF HELL EVOLVED FROM GREEK ROOTS, I explain how and why teaching of eternal torment entered early into Christianity and how Scriptures have been misinterpreted and taken out of context to support that teaching. ~Babu G. Ranganathan (B.A. theology/biology)

ergonomover Says:

Apr 22, 2012 - Wow 2 pages thick with apologist's spam. Mogley just wasted his and everybody's time; not even caplock can make this wannabee author right. I like the last one where he presents his cherry-picked cocktail of mumbo jumbo interpretation. Too bad (for him) he lists no credentials in science to support all his pseudo-scientific claims - same thing with the "creation scientists" (LOL!) to whom he links. No hell? Mogley hopes to coat the pill with a ton of sugar... Still no reason to swallow it!

May 4, 2012 - What's "Bang Theory"? Is it something naughty?

DogBoots77 Says:

May 4, 2012 - This man is pure evil! Can't you see it!? Obviously a no good climate change believer who's part of a world wide conspiracy with some devilish plot to commit maximum evil!

May 7, 2012 - If you can just change your beliefs on a whim, how about you stop believing all together?

beatonm198 Says:

May 7, 2012 - No one has observed God. Your god does not exist. Thanks for proving our point.

Heavenisinmyhands Says:

May 27, 2012 - Science is not "knowledge based on observation". It is knowledge based on evidence that was found through countless hypotheses that have been tested countless times. All of the scientific claims, laws, theories, etc. that exist today are based on hundreds--maybe even thousands--of tests to prove their validity. If science was simply based on observation, nothing we have today would work. We have medicine, agriculture, electricity, buildings, doctors, and much more...all because of science.
