@@thx4chrckingin It would take GOD himself to tell believers he wasn't real, but even then if GOD himself told a believer he wasn't real, they still wouldn't believe it because he just told them. Fact is that according to the bible at least Humans were a specific creation made from scratch out of the dust of the ground. According to bible chronology that was around 7016 years ago, give or take 100 years or so because of the way they rounded number off. Josh was 77 when he fathered John, John was 62, when he fathered Bob, etc. So there is no way of knowing if Josh was almost 78 adding almost an entire year to the timeline. Still it gets us close. So if GOD magically created humans around 7,000 years ago from dust then we shouldn't have any pollution from other lifeforms in our DNA. Instead what we see is that the vast majority of our DNA is actually left over junk from evolution or infection. We have junk DNA from viruses that haven't existed on Earth for 300,000 years. So why would GOD ALMIGHTY intentionally and specifically create humans from scratch 7,000 years ago and again, intentionally and specifically fill 80% of our DNA with junk from extinct species of animals and diseases that haven't existed for hundreds of thousands of years. Why would we even need DNA coding that has no contribution whatsoever to who we are, how we grow etc. It would be like Microsoft releasing a brand new version of windows not based at all on previous version but including 5 times as much data in the form of tiny torn off pieces of photos that are meaningless and useless. If god existed and he actually did that on purpose, it would certainly take out the "intelligent" part of his intelligent design. Ultimately people don't want to be alone. So they create an imaginary friend that is always with them. They dont want to be scared, certainly not scared of the future or death. So they imagine their friend has all the answers and will somehow preserve them in a magical form after their life ends. They want their enemies to suffer. So they imagine their friend is vengeful and protective of them. Even to the point of punishing your enemies for eternity in a horrible and disgusting manner. They miss their friends and family who have died, so they imagine their friend will somehow reunite them because its easier than accepting death, grieving, and moving on. They can't logically justify why they think some things are right and others are wrong so they give credit for their moral choices to their imaginary friend which they feel confirms their choices. Much like a child saying "im right arnt i mom, arn't I, Mom! arn't I right?" Except that their mom actually exist and that her agreement doesn't establish an opinion as fact. While most of us give up imaginary friends as we grow up, some have dove so deeply into the role that they retain these beliefs as adults reinforced by other adults who didn't want to give up their childish fantasies either. Inevitably in every situation where there is an adult child running loose in the world or worse many, there will be those who take advantage of them. Their imaginary friend becomes a sort of security blanket. So the predator, usually call a preacher, paster, father, etc. Basically tells them that their security blanket will be taken from them and they will be sad, UNLESS you do what the predator says. This usually included nothing more than sitting through hours of boredom while they explain all the ways you can lose your security blanket and worse be punished forever, but also included indentured unpaid servitude. Basically legal slave labor because it is technically voluntary even though its actually worse than being forced at gun point since they are threatening your "SOUL" for "all eternity". Also very common is armed robbery. This again is where they threaten your "soul" which they have convinced you is the essence of who you are beyond your body with eternal damnation and torture unless you "please god" by giving this con artist your money. Its almost funny in a sick sort of way that we live in a society that would never stand by and allow a child to be taken advantage of by a predator, but if you are unable to shed childish beliefs as an adult its somehow ok not only to do it to individuals but to 10s of millions of people all at once.

@@K162KingPin Here I disagree. I 100% believe God is real. Firstly, the Bible says that God built the world in 7 days, but it also says a day for him can be a millennium for us. The world is definitely older than that. Also, the very nature of evolution is one that God himself used to give color to our world. Our DNA has been changing, one example being that humans were much shorter back then, and that's all of his plan. Thing is, I've seen too many miracles, too many people in utter joy at knowing Him to not believe he exists. There's too much evidence. Besides, even if I'm wrong, I would have lived my life better because of it. If I'm wrong, oh well. Bit if you're wrong... well... it's not gonna look good for you

Been watching these documentaries a lot lately and finally I noticed a camouflaged praying mantis feeding on a 🐛. Observing nature live is even more awesome

I couIdn't agree more. I Iive in a ruraI area with forests, fields, ponds, streams and a river nearby. I never tire of watching & hearing aII the animals in my small community. We see deer, turkeys, foxes, so many different birds come to my feeders and suet cakes, I even keep a seperate bowl of food for the chipmunks 🐿. They know I'm not a threat so I have coffee on my back porch in nice weather and watch the birds and chipmunks a few feet away. 😊 I could write paragraphs on how many animals, insects, birds and mammals in the area. It's wonderful and I can't imagine Iiving anywhere eIse. ❤

the insect did not die and come back, it underwent a process called 'torpor' which is when the body shuts down almost entirely, bringing the animal to a death-like state, but it is still alive. processes are slowed down but not haulted.

@ 15:48 I had a Mud-skipper as a pet once. After doing some research, I knew I could never have another, not unless they can breed them in captivity. That being said, it was one of the most engaging pets I ever had. It would eat directly from my fingers, and would hop into my hand and I could walk around the house with it. I used to tell people I had taken my fish for a walk. Don't know why really, no one ever seemed to believe me. Not if they didn't live with me anyway. I have shown pictures of it. One I called my fish with a stogie. I took the picture right after giving the fish a meal worm. In the picture, it looks almost as if the fish was smoking a cigar. I don't recommend getting a mud-skipper unless they can be bread in captivity. I don't wish the wild population to be depleted for the hobbyist aquarium market. They are very entertaining though, and I'm glad I had the experience. On food, the pet store recommended crickets, but I found my mud-skipper preferred the meal worms. He would also eat flake fish food, so I kept some of that on his rock as well. He (don't really know the gender) spent most of his time on the rock, which was sort of half in, and half out of the water. I also had a red crab in the aquarium, which also preferred to stay on the rock above the water line.

@StarSong9363 жыл бұрын
@@nikmohamed5906 That was 22 years ago, and it was in a wet/dry tank with brackish water. I did not have a mud substrate, it was aquarium sand. His favorite place to hang out was on top of a rock, just at the waterline. I also had some small ghost shrimp in the tank he would occasionally eat. As for his regular food, I used fish flakes, and meal worms.

@@StarSong936 😮 thanks for the reply I used to keep brackish water red-fiddler crab, those crabs are native to my home country Malaysia. But it was just a simple setup with just a big bucket with mud in it and mangrove saplings Mudskippers have such alien-looking features with its eyes at the top of their head which reminds me of flounder fish
@StarSong9363 жыл бұрын
@@nikmohamed5906 I had red crabs, 2 of them in separate aquariums. One hung out on top of the rock with my mudskipper, the other on top of the hood on a different aquarium. For both, I put out fish flakes for them to eat, one on top of the aquarium hood, the other on top of the rock. I enjoyed both of them. Thank you for sharing. The one in the smaller aquarium used to hang out in the filter picking bits of food out of the filter. I did once hold out my finger to the one in the filter. He grabbed my fingernail and we shook "hands." I also once had a crawdad in my fresh water tank. (also known as a crayfish) I got him to take care of a snail problem I was having at the time. He got to be very large, about 3 inches long. Sadly, I found him dead in the middle of the hallway as he got large enough to crawl out of my tank while I was at work, so I was not there to put him back into the water.
