DonExodus2 | This is Why Every Scientist Accepts Evolution @DonExodus2 | Uploaded September 2009 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
READ DESCRIPTION: Please watch the video in its entirety- I know it starts off slow and technical. I discuss the actual, oft unmentioned reason every scientist accepts evolution. Ignorance is no longer an excuse.
Special thanks to Greenman3610 for providing the audio track in the background. If you're remotely interested in global warming, subscribing to him is not an option, its a requirement.
-The C14 tree/etc example is just to show the strengths of independent methods.
