ALTHOUGH I think u wud have to be pritty dence to be a young earth creatoinist this vidoe is pritty stupid initself .

its fine to say sumone is wrong by a factor of something but then to try and abatreraly aply that factor to unrealated things is quite stupid and dosent actualy work. it would be better to have a clip that went over all the sources for evidence of how old the earth is and poke fun at young earth creatoinists ability to be ignorent.

i reolise this clip is just poking fun at christains but its ironik that in itself it is stupid.

Westy does have a point. The video shows us analogies of how great the difference is between science's discoveries about the age of the earth and what creationists believe, but it doesn't really ever make any valid arguments against creationism, arguments that demonstrate *why* it is incorrect. Even briefly brushing upon the evidence would be more effective instead of simply arguing from the authority of 'science.' The great thing about science is that there IS evidence, but if it isn't used science seems like just another unsubstantiated belief.

Although this video calls for an end to ignorance, it doesn't do anything to advance that goal. To end ignorance, you have to enlighten the unenlightened by convincing them of your position, not just tell them they're stupid for believing what they believe.

This video points out how ludicrous and patently wrong creationistas are. I ridicules them because their beliefs are ridiculous.

I think it's poignant to show, through example, how vastly incorrect they are. Yes, it doesn't show any of the evidence, but there are plenty of other videos out there that do show that, and yet creationists still don't listen. Sometimes people need to be shown the scale of these things because sometimes they are hard for people to grasp. That's why I always liked Sagan's "Cosmic Calendar" (http://www.videosift.com/video/Carl-Sagan-Cosmic-Calender). This video by itself isn't going to do much, but I think it has it's place in an argument.

Well put, Westy. I actually have a strong desire to downvote this.

westy needs to learn to spell if anyone is to take his comment seriously...
