The fossil record says humans crashed down to maybe 1000 individuals but the flood story has humans go down to 8 people. He uses that as if evolution timeline and biblical timeline was similar. But in reality, the human population crashed something like 180,000 years ago so there is no putting those two timelines together.
for theories put forward that claim to use science can we please have links to peer reviewed papers.
Also, one of his bogus arguments is that the population of early man should have been 40 BILLION people, that based on his BS idea of reproductive rates.
The population of the entire human race in those years was never more than a few million but he uses his BS argument to support his idea there are practically no fossils of early man, very small numbers we have today.
This alone is a total nonsense argument. You don't need a Phd to see that one.
Next he goes into Eve's genetics, total supposition.
He goes on to say the lack of genetic diversity was due to the 3 or 4 wives of the Ark.
He goes on to say this explains the diversity of humans today.
Lets see his peer reviewed papers on it.......
Just another case of all opinion, words, words, more words in a lecture as if that was science.
Sorry, that is not how science works. You don't just start lecturing on a subject with the pre-ordained idea of proving a theory and expect people to just fall over and believe his BS.

His degree is in Marine Biology but he presents himself as a genetics expert.
Hinds: How can you sleep at night when you put up crap like this trying to say this is actual science? This is an opinion piece and nothing more and the whole idea of such people is to use science as a weapon to convert people on the fence about christianity into their fold.
How can you sleep at night using such deceptive works as this?
What would you think of the quality of people who would be swayed by this BS? Would you really want those weak minded individuals to be part of your religion?
I guess the answer to that is yes, you WANT weakminded individuals, like yourself, so your bogus religion can grow as big as it can politically thus making it SEEM as if all the creation stories and flood and babel stories are all literally true.
It does tend to show how humans are not as smart as they are cracked up to be.

I believe there is somebody here that has common sense like me and could be swayed to believe as I do on creation.
so unfortunately for you (as proven with your cancer comment in another thread), you are not using common sense or even intelligence.
there is a horrible film called the human centipede (i dont recommend it) your passing on of these terrible youtube clips reminds me of the infamous climax of the movie. i'd say you were the guy at the end of the centipede, whos crap just falls on the floor.

Doesn't that tell you SOMETHING?
Don't you even get the part that they are not presenting science, only spreading opinions?
