Protein Orchards and Universal Common Descent with Sal Cordova Creation Myths 2024-05-16 | Young earth creationist and repeat channel guest Sal Cordova joins me to talk about the concept of "protein orchards", the idea that proteins do NOT all share common ancestry. Sal argues that even assuming universal common descent of organisms, the formation of the protein orchard (where families of proteins are grouped together because of their homology with some proteins and not others as evidenced by bioinformatic tools), points to events that would require statistical miracles. I, obviously, disagree, and I'm very happy to be having Sal on to talk about it.

Backstory in the video, but basically I got the attention of "intelligent design" (aka creationist, sorry, cdesign proponentsists) think tank Discovery Institute and we've been chatting about it for a couple of months. I even had a debate with one of their Ph.D.s, Dr. Casey Luskin. And since then, Discovery Institute has been trying to gaslight everyone into thinking they *didn't* change their argument after the debate, when they totally did.They've had quite a bit to say post-debate, and while I've released a few shorter post-debate videos, this is my big wrap-up.

DEBATE: Is the Human Genome Largely Junk DNA? with Dr. Casey Luskin Creation Myths 2024-05-30 | On May 2nd, 2024 on the Non-Sequitur Show, I debated Discovery Institute's Dr. Casey Luskin on the question "Is the human genome largely junk DNA?"This is that debate in full. The takeaway is this: Yes, the human genome is mostly (80-90%) junk DNA, that is, DNA that does not have a function. By the end of this debate, Dr. Luskin had revised his argument somewhat, and if creationists use *that* version of the argument going forward, they'll be a lot less wrong about junk DNA.

I Made Discovery Institute Change Their Junk DNA Argument Creation Myths 2024-05-19 | The DI junk DNA saga continues. Dr. Jonathan McLatchie published his thoughts on my debate with Dr. Casey Luskin: evolutionnews.org/2024/05/reflections-on-casey-luskins-debate-with-dr-danThere's a REALLY important bit in there. Important because Dr. McLatchie agrees with something Dr. Luskin said during the debate, and it's quite different from what DI has said in the past. Folks, they're changing their argument around junk DNA in the human genome.

Intelligent Design Proponent: No Known Function for Most of Human Genome Creation Myths 2024-05-05 | On May 2nd, 2024, I had a very enjoyable debate with Dr. Casey Luskin of Discovery Institute on the topic of junk DNA in the human genome. Like most (I think all) ID creationists, Dr. Luskin argues that the human genome is mostly functional, and "junk DNA" is an outdated concept that's falling by the wayside, and this is supported by the weight of current data. But at the end of our conversation, he said...not that.

Yes, Lactase Persistence is a New Beneficial Trait with Standing for Truth and Rawmatt Creation Myths 2024-02-22 | Another short clip from an open mic on Standing For Truth in September 2023. This bit of the conversation was on lactase persistence. Creationists are going to keep trying to find ways to explain away an obvious new beneficial trait as somehow not that.

Dr. Nathaniel Jeansons Ridiculous Methods with Rawmatt Creation Myths 2024-02-08 | Because I can't help myself, I went on an open mic panel on the Standing for Truth channel in September of 2023 (I've already shared some of that show on this channel), and part of my time on air was this brief conversation with Rawmatt about Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson's methodology for calculating the human Y-chromosome mutation rates that he used to justify a young-earth timeline for humanity in his 2022 book, Traced. The thing I want to point out here is NOT how uninformed Rawmatt is (though please do note how uninformed Rawmatt is). The thing I want to point out is the disservice professional YECs do when they present these easy-to-refute arguments to their non-scientific audience, who then repeats them. And then when that audience encounters people who know better, this is what happens. Enjoy, but also remember to blame here. This is Jeanson's fault, not Rawmatt's.

Creation Trick: Fake It! Creation Myths 2024-01-25 | Here's a fun thing creationists do: Pretend the know a lot more than they actually do, and make arguments without actually understanding the argument they're making.Here are three examples of creationists doing just that.

Creation Myth: Biologists Thought All Non-Coding DNA was Junk Creation Myths 2024-01-11 | Creationists have a thing with junk DNA. We're not going to get into here - done that elsewhere, as have other people. The fact is junk DNA is very real. But here, we're dealing with a thing creationists say that's related, and completely wrong. And they can stop saying it and it doesn't affect their arguments at all! They can just stop lying. But they don't. In this video we look at the claim that biologists originally thought that all non-protein-coding DNA was "junk DNA". This is not the case, for a very simple reason, as you'll see. @talkpopgen 's: show with Dr. Moran: youtu.be/lqzBcAsQbqU?si=OhgH02Gj5MleUBm1Discovery Institute shorts:youtube.com/shorts/b6e-GZNLcZUyoutube.com/shorts/aXJ6uJrUxdkThis is just a hobby for me, but if you appreciate what I'm doing and want to say thank you, you can contribute here: patreon.com/creationmythspaypal.me/creationmyths?locale.x=en_USAnd if you want early access to pre-recorded videos, you can become a channel member: youtube.com/channel/UCZmhEtG-QIrmyWoW0M6TIgQ/joinIf you disagree with anything in this video and want an opportunity to make your case, email me: creationmythschannel@gmail.com.

Welcome To Creation Myths (Updated Channel Introduction Because The Old One Is Not Very Good) Creation Myths 2023-12-28 | Welcome to Creation Myths! Not sure what this channel is about? This video is for you. The "welcome to the channel" video I shot way back in June of 2020 is both not very good and also somewhat outdated - I've since done different things that I hadn't even thought of back then! Basically, I'm an evolutionary biologist who tells you how and why creationist arguments are wrong, with a focus on evolution and genetics. In my main ongoing series, I tackle the major creationist talking points one by one, and I also do book reviews of creationist books, literature reviews of creationist papers (and "papers"), respond directly to critics, point out the contradictory arguments creationists make, host panel discussions with other science and evolution and anti-creationist youtubers, and best of all: long, in-depth interviews with professional, credentialed creationists. If you're at all curious about the arguments creationists make and why they're wrong, you can find out here.

Creation Myth: Kinds Creation Myths 2023-12-21 | "Created Kinds", right? That amorphous concept. The original things that were separately created, from which all the things that exist today supposedly evolved once the Ark landed on dry ground. YECs have been trying to figure out how to determine how many kinds and what they were for decades. Well, I've got the answer right here, and they're not going to like it. We can use genetics to concretely ID the "kinds". The problem is..."kinds" are fake. All cellular life is the same kind. All cellular life shares common ancestry. This video explains how to determine "kinds", and how actually doing it disproves the whole concept.
