Honestly as a retired professor myself I have never seen an academic behave as childishly as Tour in that debate. Rice is supporting that insane psycho who thinks holding chalk and yelling “clueless” equals scientific inquiry. He’s also lying to undergrads, which is quite creepy. Bravo to Dave for staying sane during that mess!

From your perspective, is it negligent of Rice +/or Tour when he says repeatedly he counsels his students NOT to enter the OoL field? & that Rice lets him accuse people like Lee Cronin of being a scammer? I'm surprised the university lets him get away with either or both behaviours, along with what you point out.

I watched the debate and initially, I thought Dave was a little too on the nose with calling Tour a liar. But as the debate went on it was clear to me that the audience needed to understand that their man was incapable of telling the truth about the subject. Tour was a crybaby who just kept doubling down on his lies. Great debate, Dave.

I'd seen so many of Dave's video's that lead up to the debate, and, when you do, you know that Dave knows he's not going to convince Tour, as Tour was not an honest interlocutor in the tiniest sense. Dave came as prepared as he could knowing he was facing someone who was just dancing to his base, and simply attempted to expose that fact by showing the pattern, knowing his work would stand scrutiny by those who were actually knowledgeable on the subject. I thought Dave did a great job, given this situation.

You don't need experience to get good at debates. The arguments will hold by themselves if they have evidence and reason. Watching Peterson vs Matt is like looking at 2 toddlers arguing. At this point debates are just ego competitions. Besides nobody is that open to a change of mind. If you are a scientist and you are telling facts that should be enough and people can think about what you just said, but at the moment the debate starts to get ideology in it it's just an ego showdown.

This is why live debates are generally not that good any more. If you have a dishonest actor, it takes times to do the research to demonstrate a lie. That's why I think debates where people have time to submit video responses back and forth are more productive than live debates.

Not sure, because many (if not most) people will only stay on one side and only see the entire debates through one person, who can of course make it look like they're winning no matter what. In face-to-face debates both audiences have to face each other and hear the arguments whether they want to or not.

@@temari2860 I didn't mean the idea of going through just one person, but presenting a case with time to research and then receiving a like response. You could still have debate rules---e.g. every response is posted, length limits, etc. The issue I have with live debates is that it is much easier to make up BS than it is to debunk it. It takes time to do the research to debunk a thing. Also, it seems to reward quick-wittedness and on-the-spot charisma over the actual arguments for a position. In the past, such person-to-person debates were much more beneficial in a relative sense because the research was much more time-consuming. So the best option for the public was to have two real experts who have more facts than everybody else at their disposal present them in good faith. But now, research is easier. A video response could come quickly and still involve research and even links so that those viewing can fact-check the sources.

Dave's a genre pioneer, not surprised other educators are taking inspiration from his practices. The science communicators I know personally are all really overworked & usually appreciate others who do what they do, as long as they do it well & aren't plagiarizing. There's lots of room in the field & Dave stands out regardless. Unless Adam's copying his material or not on the way to finding his own style, I don't see a problem. The name similarity could be as much an homage to Dave or to signal he's in Dave's genre as anything else. It's not a bad move, & you seem to have had good experiences with his material. I guess I'm trying to parse your comment for why it's here? Do you want to let others know there's another good channel to follow, are you worried he's too close to Dave's channel, or are you suggesting a collab, or that they could coordinate material sometimes to save doubling up on work?

I know you had a difficult task, and it was very rough in the beginning, but you absolutely knocked it out of the park in the last half. Your series on KZbin are so expertly done and I've learned so much from you, both in learning new things and learning things to counter the misinformation out there (my fav was the Astrology episode) You both are great and keep up the amazing work!

I think the important point that Aron was trying to make about winning over the audience, is that the audience that were there in person are not going to change their minds, that is almost definitely true But it's not just people who are there in person that are watching the debate. It's everybody on the internet and everybody that watches it in the future, people who are on Dave's side people who are on Tour's side, and people who are genuine fence sitters. I understand that being respectful towards hecklers is difficult but it makes you look like the bigger person and it makes people who are skeptical of your worldview, subconsciously more willing to listen to your arguments. Even if you don't change their minds entirely, no one changes their minds overnight, and if showing them genuine respect, even when they're not showing you genuine respect gets them to concede a small point that you make, then that is a foot in the door to getting them to eventually change their mind, or at least be less extreme in their beliefs. Do the hecklers deserve respect? Absolutely not. Just because they don't deserve it though doesn't mean it's not smart to give it to them

Agreed. It's disappointing how much tone policing is being done. Esp on unequal terms. I don't hear many people on either side talking about how rude + mean Tour was to Dave, yet he's been awful, & Dave has supporters worrying about harshness on the debunk side. It's a red herring. I like the way Dave argues, & I'm for civility when someone is being civil back. Lying, yelling, reputation-destroying, deliberately steering people away from the truth, trying to bully your religion's way into non-religious fields, dehumanization of opposing perspectives --- none of that is civil, & Dave's approach is warranted. The gift Tour gave him was a dominance move obvious to anyone who's been watching all the videos as this progressed. If you go back & watch his first video on Tour, Dave gives him so much benefit of the doubt, it's amazing to watch in hindsight how willing he was to give Tour grace. Tour proceeded to violently shred any splinter of goodwill or illusion of acting in good faith. Dave's responded according to Tour's provocations + escalations. As a culture, we need to learn how not to be manipulated by cheap appeals to politeness when the end goal of an argument is absurd or authoritarian or destructive lies --- they deserve scorn + outrage.

Damn Dave, I have wathed your content for the best of 3 years and the debunks are the ones bringing me back to your channel. I first watched you since one of my science teachers reffered me to one your tutorials on physics and biology.They were very helpful in my Junior High Science Classes and I watched your other content at my free time. I got invested in most of your debunks alongside Aron Ra's content. But the one series of debunks i cannot stop rewatching is good ol' Jimbo Tour.I probably did not understand many of the organic chemistry stuff in the Tour Debunks (but I think I am going to start watching your OrgChem stuff), but I watched all of it because I absolutely enjoy the comedy and cruelty of Jim's infantile bullshit. MY favorite part in the debate that i CRINGED on was when James Tour did a hasty damage control stunt when he praises you as a musician after he literally mocked you for being dramatic as a musician (assuming he knew that you called him out on it beforehand and shit his pants). But anyways, thank you for teaching me so much Science and all kinds of stuff and thank you Jim to making me more interested in OoL. Keep knocking them down Dave!

I'm getting really tired of the tone policing of Dave, even the subtler tone policing, "That's not how I would have done it." For one thing, Tour was constantly screaming and lying during the debate, and I'm frankly impressed that Dave stayed as calm and poised as he did under those circumstances. Second, Tour and his followers are ideologically driven to remain willfully ignorant on OoL research. If calm, purely research-base discourse was an effective way to convince this crowd, then they would have already been convinced by the thousands of researchers doing amazing work every day in the OoL field. No, this crowd needs to be shocked out of their willful ignorance; it's the only thing that might get them to realize how inappropriately and embarrassingly they are behaving. Keep up the good work, Dave. 💪🧑‍🔬

So, the point Aron mentions when James really lost it.. was that the point when he starts waving the chalk at the board demanding you show the chemistry for the improperly labeled scheme he drew because it just clicked in his head that you said we now (and for a while now) have fully self replicating synthetic RNA? Because that's the moment that sticks out in my mind.

"hearing you say “chemical evolution” makes me cringe because I think of Kint Hovind" it makes me think THC has gotten a lot more potent recently. idk systems chemistry. but the basic idea is that some reactions favor others. you put a giant mass of chemicals inside tanks, add heat, etc, and you will find after a while that some reactions made more products than others. they've actually done this w RNA. just dumped a bunch of ribonucleic acids in a tank and let them have at it. eventually RNA chains form, and some of those chains are favored. they can get lotsa neat RNA chains out of that that DO things, but idk how much of that they've done in labs and how much they've done in computer simulations.

For our fair viewers that should hear something about the difference between Chemistry and things like Biochemistry and Molecular Biology: These fields are all about the interactions of atoms joined together and have the ability to interact, as atoms often do. Small Molecule Chemistry is an entire field of science. Organic Chemistry is a gigantic area of science. Organometalic Chemistry is another field. And these things are all well and good and the Chemistry is easier (relatively) to keep track of. Once you are getting into Molecular Biology you are dealing with Proteins and DNA. These things are HUGE. DNA and RNA are very variable. Protiens get extremely complicated. One two part protien is called a Ribosome and it is gigantic compared to small molecules. It took a supercomputer to model it. This would lead some to lean towards the idea of intelligent design. And yet... RNA is self replicating but doesn't jump to being a life form on its own. Sicentists are looking for something besides "God did it by magic." Tour in the debate they are talking about isn't in the Molecular Biology field. (That happens to be what my degree is, along with Chemistry). Having a degree in one field of Chemistry does not necessarily grant expertise in all fields related to Chemistry. (including Molecular Biology) Tour isn't as qualified to speak about it and there are people who are more qualified than he is to speak about it. And there are people devoting their whole careers to finding answers besides magical sky daddy did it. So what if there is a god? So what. You still might want to know about the details of a creation if there was a creation and it wasn't a process generated through natural occurances. Tour is not qualified to talk about abiogenisis any more than being a qualified biologist. He understands the basics and could pass a course and be skeptical. It is good to be skeptical. Science is NOT about jumping to conclusions. Tour is jumping to conclusions and you can hear it in his statements. When somebody is jumping to conclusions they will say "No such thing exists... This is NEVER shown... ALL of these things... And -insert what he favors- has to be it becaus there is no other way so let's all go home and quit doing science. Let's go home and let's quit doing science is not an option because without science we will all be nothing more than superstitious folks and all of our livelihoods will deepend on sheep and goats and wheat again. Going backwards is not the way. So let's do science and let's show some respect towards science instead of people who pass a plate around the special building so they can make you feel good about feeling bad.

I’m not asking for a religious definition unless it’s applicable. Dave is an Atheist. Other “evolution” scientists are not. I don’t care about that much about who is what but surely, not all people who believe in a “creator” are lumped in with these others who believe the Bible should be read like a validated science/history/physics/biology/chemistry/geology text book, right?
