You have memories from before you were born and those memories are black and white photographs and history books? I'm not only impressed but also intrigued  :gonnaneedmyglasses:

Francis Crick (whom died in 2004),  British molecular biologist, biophysicist, neuroscientist, Nobel Prize winner, and most notably a co-discoverer of the structure of the DNA molecule in 1953 with James Watson, said that "the odds of life being created by accident is about as likely as a fully functioning jumbo jet being put together by accident from a hurricane in a boneyard".

It's not like this is some random crackpot. The dude is/was one of the most accomplished men to ever do it in his field. I mean the guy helped co-discover the structure of the damn DNA molecule for fuck's sake.

What do y'all think of that quote up above?



That quote is a great display of evolution deniers critical thinking and tactics.  A false quote misatributed to biologist in order to sow seeds of doubt.  When the facts dont fit your worldview,  lie.

Same with Einsteins quote

"God does not play dice"


--------------------
“I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

Yeah, but just because some people misuse the quote doesn't mean it's not valid. Even bacteria are too complex to have been generated by random chance from nothing in 600 million years. The idea of a creator isn't incompatible with evolution as some of you guys are saying; personally, I believe in Terence's teleological attractor theory, which definitely refers to an intelligently created object while completely agreeing with the theory of evolution.

Are you saying I'm trying to "sow seeds of doubt"? Lol

All I did was watch the video in the OP, and the guy said it was Crick

I'm not trying to put seeds anywhere, I just thought it was an interesting quote

The Cosmic Serpent: DNA and the Origins of Knowledge.  Great book I've read it twice.  It also mentions Crick and his thoughts on the origin of DNA.

Here's another quote from the same guy...

...to solve the problem of irresponsible people and especially those who are poorly endowed genetically having large numbers of unnecessary children. Because of their irresponsibility, it seems to me that for them, sterilization is the only answer and I would do this by bribery. It would probably pay society to offer such individuals something like l,000 [British pounds] down and a pension of 5 [British pounds} a week over the age of 60. As you probably know, the bribe in India is a transistor radio and apparently there are plenty of takers. Finally, let me say that although I agree with you that these are basically long term problems, I also agree that they will be upon us sooner than we realize and as soon as intelligent discussion is started on them the better...

No. I edited that post as some people may not have read the whole thread and not realised that the quote attributed to Crick wasn't actually his.

My appologies for any misconception.

It does sound like Hoyle was a pretty smart guy as well in his own field.
