What ‘science leads’ to dinosaurs living on a boat floating on a flooded earth in the last few thousand years?

@kellyjay saidThe numbers are only correct if he's correct about the biology.
I'm more confident with design and numbers. Which is what that second video was about. I'm not sure if you watched the second one someone in the field was going over the numbers.

@stellspalfie saidYou don't think he is?

@kellyjay saidHe doesn't fill me with much confidence. Do you question the biology? Or do you just accept that its right?
You don't think he is?
@stellspalfie saidI accept it, you disagree? Where and why?

@kellyjay saidYou just accept it? No questions asked. You like what he's saying, so despite him not being a molecular biologist, or even just a biologist. You just take him at his word...………..interesting.
I accept it, you disagree? Where and why?
You disagree with anything he said about the make up of a protein, from its make up or what that means as far the odds on putting it together?
@stellspalfie saidIf you have an issue with what was put forward give me your reasons why. If you want to just make this all about me, we can stop because you are only attempting to make this personal, and doing that isn't interesting its sad.

@kellyjay saidSure, it's easy if you do a calculation after you posit a designer.
I have to assume you are speaking to ID and undirected processes. I think it is a slam dunk on designs side, random acts couldn’t do something this complex under perfect conditions let alone in the midst of a hostile environment!
@bigdoggproblem saidI said earlier there were basically three positions of how the universe began, all things in it, with variations of each. I'm willing to look at others, but feel most if not all will all fall out into one of these three.

But what were the odds of a god existing without a cause? If that is no more likely than an unguided big bang [etc.] then what good is the argument from probability in general?
@kellyjay saidYour own belief does not, to my mind, fit into any of the three categories you gave. I would classify it as: God always was; everything else was created by cause.

Everything from nothing.
Everything created by cause.
Everything always was.
If there are other reasons that do not fall into any of these please fe ...[text shortened]... cause is a 1/2 either yes or no. If no then there is no God that always existed, if yes then God is.

@bigdoggproblem saidA search for truth should be done by not just looking at those things that agree with us but possible things that can destroy what we believe. God is outside of the universe and is completely unaffected by anything in it, time, space, matter, energy none of these bind God, but God as the creator and maintainer of all things is in charge, as many of His followers like to call Him, He is the King of the universe.

I'm probably not going to watch the video, because I think the probability argument is not useful in determining origins. Probability is more useful before the fact; arguments such as this are af ...[text shortened]... y win. The only probability left [i]after the fact is the 100% probability that that person won.
@kellyjay saidIts a long video - does he discuss proteins at any point?

A biologist.
@stellspalfie saidHe covers a variety of topics and touches on them. A very high level over view is he is speaking on biology text books, touching on why people within biology and without it all share very similar views and how sometimes the textbooks avoid and stress things. It is a long video, it covers a book he wrote which I have.
