Nifty Video on Transitional Fossils

Karl, writing from the blog Athens and Jerusalem, has posted a long series on the "foundational falsehoods of creationism." Here is his video on transitional fossils.



He has a very good explanation of what a transitional fossil is as well as how many we actually have. The slides go past pretty quickly so you will probably need to pause the video to read them. The best line, regarding extinction: "practically everything that ever was, ain't no more."

  1. I'm pretty sure the person whose blog that is is not the the person who made the "foundational falsehoods of creationism" videos. AronRa is very well known on youtube for making that series, as well as some other excellent science videos.

  2. I guess I need to get out more often. I couldn't find authorship for them. I will update the post.

  3. James,

    Sorry, there's a misunderstanding. Feel free to link to the videos, but I am not the author. I embedded them from youtube. The author is a fellow named AronRa.

    Sorry for any confusion.
