00:00:00.560 Welcome to this episode of the John Henry Weston Show. I'm your host John Henry Weston.
00:00:04.640 We're going to be talking about something very controversial about creation versus evolution
00:00:09.640 and it's going to be really fascinating. Stay tuned.
00:00:30.000 Let's begin as we always do with the sign of the cross. In the name of the Father and of the Son
00:00:35.220 and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. I am pleased to be with on the program today someone who has studied
00:00:41.900 this issue of evolution versus creation for a long, long time. His name is Hugh Owen. Hugh,
00:00:47.640 welcome to the program. Thank you. It's a joy to be with you. So let's get into this issue first of
00:00:53.560 all from the sort of 30,000 foot view. What's going on with creation and evolution? I mean,
00:00:59.040 this was universally believed, you know, God's order of creation was believed and taught in
00:01:04.260 schools all over the place until actually very recently in terms of history. And yet now there's
00:01:10.860 been court cases about it to stop it, fights in legislatures to allow people to still teach it
00:01:17.140 in the classroom and a big debate. Where are we today? Okay. Well, the situation today has to be
00:01:26.400 understood in the right context. The origins of man and the universe is a fundamental issue because
00:01:33.940 what we understand and believe about the origins of man and the universe determines our whole worldview.
00:01:41.080 It determines how we understand ourselves, how we understand the creator if we believe in creation,
00:01:47.400 and how we understand our relationship with him. So it's fundamental. And in the last 2,000 years,
00:01:58.520 the Catholic Church has always based her teaching, her whole program of education on God's revelation
00:02:07.320 of how he created the heavens and the earth and the seas and all they contain as it was revealed to
00:02:14.400 Moses in the sacred history of Genesis. What happened was beginning in the 19th century,
00:02:22.140 there was a movement to abandon the traditional teaching of the church on creation and to replace it
00:02:32.180 with a man-made hypothesis that everything in the universe came into existence through the same
00:02:40.900 kinds of natural processes that are going on now. And at first there was a lot of resistance
00:02:46.960 to that, but eventually by really early in the 20th century, the secular humanists whose whole worldview
00:02:56.240 is based on the assumption that everything has come into existence through a natural process of
00:03:02.800 evolution through the same kinds of material processes that are going on now. These people like John
00:03:09.520 Dewey basically took control of education here and throughout the Western world, and they began to impose
00:03:18.860 the teaching of this molecules to man evolutionary hypothesis as natural science. And they began to work to exclude
00:03:30.980 any teaching of supernatural creation as a religious doctrine which had no place in secular education. Now, the irony of this, of course, is that
00:03:46.400 neither the evolutionary account of the origins of man and the universe, nor the true Christian account of the origins of man and the universe,
00:03:57.820 is something that can be determined through the normal methods of natural science for one very simple reason.
00:04:05.160 The work of creation was supernatural. That was understood and taught in the church from the beginning and by all the fathers and doctors of the church, including St. Thomas Aquinas. So, the very presumption that the origins of man and the universe is a proper subject for natural science is in itself.
00:04:27.160 Not a straightforward inference from empirical science. It's a philosophical assumption. And the irony is that the secular humanists are actually imposing their religion, because secular humanism is a religion. And the Supreme Court has even recognized secular humanism as a religion for freedom of religion purposes.
00:04:56.160 But when it comes to the teaching of evolution in the public schools, even though it's the foundation of secular humanism, it's treated as natural science, whereas the Christian explanation for the origins of man and the universe, which is much more reasonable, is banned, because it's supposedly the tenet of a religion. That this is the situation right now.
00:05:24.620 Okay, so that's exactly it. But what I love about what you're doing is that you're actually taking on the science itself as well. And we're going to talk all about that. But first of all, can you tell us a little bit about yourself and about the Colby Centre that you founded?
00:05:41.540 Certainly.
00:06:11.520 Absolutely.
00:06:41.500 that he knew that the reason the United Nations was not making headway in solving the world's problems was because it wasn't going to the root of the world's problems, which was overpopulation. And the argument was, if we cut down on population growth, we'll have enough to go around and all our problems will be solved.
00:07:03.860 And so my dad accepted to become the first ever Secretary General of International Planned Parenthood Federation at the very time when IPPF changed its position on abortion and became the world's number one provider of abortion, as well as contraception and sex education.
00:07:24.220 Wow.
00:07:25.220 And he held that position for about a year when he died unexpectedly of a heart attack in London when I was just 16 years old.
00:07:32.220 Now, I had been brought up with no Bible, no prayer, no Christian formation whatsoever.
00:07:40.220 But I believe, and I can't get into all the reasons why I'm confident that at the last moment, our Lord Jesus Christ gave my father the opportunity to see the truth and to repent.
00:07:53.480 And I firmly believe that as he went down into the depths of purgatory, he began to pray for me, his very confused 16-year-old son.
00:08:04.740 But whether or not the audience is willing to accept that, the fact of the matter is, less than two years after my father's death, I received the gift of faith.
00:08:15.760 I was baptized, confirmed, and made my first Holy Communion as a Catholic in the Princeton University Chapel where I was enrolled as a freshman.
00:08:25.200 Now, at that time, the Catholic chaplaincy at Princeton University was run by Jesuits, and the Jesuit priest who received me into the church gave me a catechism so that I could learn my Catholic faith.
00:08:39.940 But the catechism he gave me was the infamous Dutch catechism.
00:08:45.380 We call it the Dutch cataclysm because this is the book that totally destroyed the faith of a once vibrant Catholic community.
00:08:54.980 But this catechism has a theme that runs through it from beginning to end.
00:09:01.540 And it is this, that we live in a scientific age, and natural science has enlightened us so that we can understand everything in our Catholic faith in a new and deeper way.
00:09:15.600 And with this very high-sounding introduction, the authors proceed to sow doubt in the mind of the reader about everything from the existence of angels, of Satan, of Adam and Eve, of original sin, of the perpetual virginity of Our Lady, the virgin birth, the intrinsic evil of contraception, and everything you can imagine.
00:09:42.300 And so it's an absolute miracle that I survived the Dutch cataclysm and came into the church at all.
00:09:50.180 But even though I did survive the Dutch cataclysm, it caused a tremendous amount of confusion.
00:09:57.540 And I consider it a very special grace obtained for me by the Blessed Virgin Mary, that I never could really accept this idea completely, that anything that we would learn new things that were true in natural science, that would cause us to change the teaching of the church in faith and morals.
00:10:23.060 And ultimately, I was delighted to discover that at the very time that my dad was being robbed of his faith, because there was nobody in his environment to show him the fatal flaws in this molecules-to-man evolution hypothesis.
00:10:41.220 St. Maximilian Kolbe was writing articles and sending them all over the world, showing that the emperor of evolution was not wearing any clothes, that there actually wasn't sound scientific evidence for this idea that molecules turned into human bodies over millions of years of the same kinds of material processes that are going on now.
00:11:06.000 And so, in the jubilee year 2000, we founded the Kolbe Center for the Study of Creation to provide a forum for Catholic theologians, philosophers, and natural scientists who reject this molecules-to-man evolution, we would say mythology, we wouldn't even call it a hypothesis, and to defend the traditional teaching of the church on creation.
00:11:35.500 That was believed and taught by all the fathers, that was believed and taught by all the fathers, doctors, popes, and council fathers in their authoritative teaching.
00:11:44.180 Right. I think this is fascinating, because you have amassed for yourself a bunch of, and not only scientists, scientists is great too, because they're able to latch on to the science and show the falsehoods, and we'll get into that.
00:11:57.680 But you also have the theologians and the experts in philosophy who are able to explain how this has undermined the faith.
00:12:06.560 So, I understand also that you and your colleagues have just produced a DVD series, in fact, a 17-part series, called Foundations Restored.
00:12:16.380 So, if you can tell us about that, what's the series about, and why did you decide to make it?
00:12:21.040 Certainly. Foundations Restored is the most comprehensive defense of the traditional Catholic doctrine of creation, and the most comprehensive refutation of the principal claims of the molecules-to-man evolution hypothesis ever produced by Catholics in the video medium.
00:12:45.720 It took us three and a half years. It took us three and a half years. It was a team effort on the part of a large number of Catholic theologians, philosophers, and natural scientists.
00:12:56.440 And what we've done in this series is to, first of all, show that the understanding of, or the study of the origins of man in the universe is not a proper subject for natural science, because we cannot observe the work of creation.
00:13:20.280 It's something that took place in the past, and all the fathers, doctors, popes, and council fathers, in the tradition of the Church, made a very clear distinction between the work of creation in the beginning, which was supernatural, and what many doctors call the order of providence, the natural order, what we are living in, where God had finished the work of creation,
00:13:46.940 and now he's just holding the work of creation in existence, and everything is operating according to the natural laws that God established in the beginning.
00:13:59.000 Therefore, we can't study what's going on now, and from that, extrapolate all the way back to the beginning to understand how everything came to be.
00:14:09.240 But we show right up front that competing with what we call the creation providence framework, which is the one revealed to us by God as the true framework, and the only one, as we can explain, that really makes sense of what we see, is what we call the Cartesian-Darwinian framework, or narrative.
00:14:32.440 And this was the framework that was put forward by the so-called Enlightenment philosophers, beginning especially in the 17th century with René Descartes and then Immanuel Kant and others.
00:14:46.500 And what they did was to claim that it was more reasonable to explain the origins of man and the universe in terms of the same material processes that are going on now, instead of this strange idea that things just popped into existence in the beginning.
00:15:06.840 Now, Descartes' works were put on the index because every theologian worth his salt knew that this was complete nonsense.
00:15:14.900 The index meaning a list of books that should not be read by Catholics, right?
00:15:19.360 Correct, yes.
00:15:20.800 And the reason was that every theologian worth his salt in the entire world knew you could no more expect to explain the origins of man and the universe in terms of the natural processes that are going on now,
00:15:37.340 then you could explain the origins of the origins of the wine at Cana in terms of the natural processes that are normally at work when wine is produced.
00:15:49.260 In both cases, it was the supernatural action of God that produced the result.
00:15:57.200 And in fact, the fathers noted that the miracle at the wedding of Cana was the first sign that our Lord Jesus Christ did and that there were six containers of water precisely to show that the divine power by which our Lord instantaneously changed ordinary water into the most wonderful wine that anybody had ever tasted,
00:16:21.740 which had all the appearance of having gone through a long natural process that it actually didn't go through at all.
00:16:29.420 It was the same divine power by which he created the heavens and the earth and the seas and all they contained supernaturally in the beginning.
00:16:40.380 In six days.
00:16:41.840 In six days, yes.
00:16:42.920 Now, there's an Augustinian minority view which holds that God created all the different kinds of creatures instantaneously,
00:16:51.880 but that is not at all compatible with the molecules to man evolution hypothesis,
00:16:58.260 even though many Catholic intellectuals today like to claim St. Augustine for theistic evolution.
00:17:05.820 They're not really being honest or at least not being correct in doing that
00:17:11.200 because all the fathers and doctors agree that the entire work of creation was supernatural.
00:17:17.980 God spoke and it was made.
00:17:19.500 He commanded and it was created.
00:17:21.340 So, the point is that right at the beginning of the DVD series,
00:17:26.560 we establish this fundamental truth that what we believe about the origins of man in the universe
00:17:35.540 is not a proper matter for empirical science because there is no creation going on now.
00:17:45.960 The only way that we can know how God created the world in the beginning is from divine revelation.
00:17:54.420 Now, for the Cartesian-Darwinian framework,
00:18:00.880 the assumption is made that we have to be able to explain everything in terms of natural causes,
00:18:11.080 in terms of the same material processes that are going on now.
00:18:14.300 And whereas the Church, for a very long time, resisted this naturalism
00:18:22.620 and even condemned it in the syllabus of errors and at the First Vatican Council,
00:18:30.780 little by little, more and more Catholic intellectuals,
00:18:35.460 in most cases without intending to do anything wrong,
00:18:40.460 accepted this Enlightenment view that it is actually proper for natural scientists
00:18:49.000 to try to explain the origins of everything in the universe
00:18:53.060 in terms of the same material processes that are going on now.
00:18:58.220 And this is why most Catholic intellectuals today believe that it is perfectly legitimate
00:19:06.640 and correct to give naturalistic explanations for the origins of everything in the universe,
00:19:13.640 from stars and galaxies to every kind of plant and animal,
00:19:18.880 and even for the human body prior to the point at which God infused the human soul
00:19:25.900 into the body of an evolved subhuman primate.
00:19:29.500 But what most of these Catholic intellectuals, no matter how brilliant they are,
00:19:35.460 what most of them do not understand is that they have accepted this Enlightenment philosophy
00:19:43.960 which has no basis whatsoever in the entire tradition of the Catholic Church.
00:19:50.660 And in doing so, they are actually doing immense harm to natural science.
00:19:58.380 Because as we prove in the DVD series,
00:20:02.340 every attempt to give a natural explanation for the origins of man and the universe fails miserably.
00:20:11.200 And what happens is the scientific community ends up investing a tremendous amount of its resources
00:20:19.420 in an exercise in futility.
00:20:22.720 It would be like getting the most brilliant scientists and engineers in the world
00:20:27.480 and saying your top priority is to figure out how the water at Cana turned into wine.
00:20:34.600 And we're going to give you an unlimited budget and the best facilities in the world
00:20:40.920 so that you can accomplish this task.
00:20:43.440 It would be a colossal waste of resources.
00:20:46.440 But that is exactly what is happening in the scientific community today
00:20:51.960 because the false Enlightenment philosophy has been accepted by the overwhelming majority of intellectuals,
00:21:01.120 both within the Catholic community and certainly beyond.
00:21:05.260 And as a result, it's now come to be the conventional wisdom,
00:21:08.640 certainly not the teaching of the Church,
00:21:11.580 that the origins of man and the universe is a legitimate subject for natural science.
00:21:17.920 And this is the very first point that has to be clarified.
00:21:21.180 So, from that starting point, we go on to show what the authoritative teaching of the Church
00:21:29.440 has been from the time of the Apostles with regard to the origins of man and the universe.
00:21:36.420 And that tells us that the sacred history of Genesis is just that.
00:21:42.260 It's an accurate account of what God actually did when He created the world.
00:21:48.160 And it's an accurate account of what happened in the first period of human history
00:21:53.400 leading up to the global flood and the Tower of Babel incident.
00:21:59.120 And then we show that this alternative explanation for the origins of man and the universe
00:22:08.460 did not have a very good origin because Descartes actually developed this idea
00:22:16.640 that we could explain everything in the universe,
00:22:20.400 how it originated through natural processes.
00:22:23.020 After leading a very immoral life,
00:22:26.200 dabbling in the occult,
00:22:28.120 and leaving Catholic France for the Netherlands,
00:22:30.680 where he would be free to think and do and write as he pleased.
00:22:34.320 And he himself admitted that he had three mystical dreams
00:22:39.360 in which a spirit of truth possessed him
00:22:42.560 and put him on the path to develop a wonderful new way of thinking
00:22:47.520 that would change the way people thought.
00:22:51.340 And if you watch the DVD series,
00:22:53.840 I don't think you'll have any doubt
00:22:55.260 who that spirit of truth, alias Lucifer,
00:22:58.940 was that gave Descartes revolutionary ideas
00:23:03.360 that turned the whole current of thought in the Western world
00:23:09.780 away from the tradition of the Church,
00:23:13.680 the tradition of St. Thomas and the Scholastics,
00:23:16.820 in a totally different direction,
00:23:19.320 which actually has led us away from God
00:23:21.840 and away from the truth.
00:23:24.260 But we don't stop there,
00:23:26.060 because we go on to respectfully present
00:23:30.820 all the claims,
00:23:33.020 all the principal claims
00:23:34.320 of the molecules to man evolution theorists,
00:23:38.020 beginning with Big Bang cosmology,
00:23:41.260 with the Lyellian geology
00:23:43.700 that was developed by Charles Lyell
00:23:46.500 and James Hutton and their disciples,
00:23:48.600 which set the stage for Darwin.
00:23:50.880 And then we thoroughly address
00:23:52.720 all the claims of the evolutionary biologists.
00:23:57.880 And we also deal with the claim
00:24:01.680 that there is overwhelming evidence
00:24:04.280 from radiometric dating and from geology
00:24:08.380 that the Earth and the universe
00:24:10.860 are billions of years old.
00:24:12.540 And we show that in reality,
00:24:14.280 all of this so-called overwhelming evidence
00:24:17.060 is based on certain assumptions,
00:24:19.560 which are not only unprovable,
00:24:21.860 they are actually unreasonable.
00:24:24.040 And that when we look at
00:24:25.560 the empirical evidence objectively,
00:24:28.700 in any area of natural science,
00:24:32.960 it is much more consistent
00:24:34.920 with the traditional teaching
00:24:37.200 of the Church on creation
00:24:38.800 than it is with the molecules
00:24:41.040 to man evolution hypothesis.
00:24:43.940 Right.
00:24:44.220 And that, I think,
00:24:45.280 is very, very fascinating.
00:24:47.180 So that the science,
00:24:48.660 in as much as it can look at things,
00:24:50.520 is actually more supportive
00:24:52.140 of creation
00:24:53.580 than it is of evolution itself.
00:24:56.760 One of the things
00:24:57.640 that I found fascinating
00:24:58.620 in talking to you earlier
00:25:00.120 is about how this sort of
00:25:02.660 established knowledge
00:25:04.140 about evolution took place,
00:25:05.820 even among Catholic intellectuals.
00:25:07.960 You were talking about
00:25:09.440 a process whereby
00:25:10.540 there were actually known fakes
00:25:12.580 to prove evolution,
00:25:14.400 but those lasted long enough
00:25:16.260 to convince enough people
00:25:17.480 that, you know,
00:25:19.140 some were convinced.
00:25:19.980 Then what was found to be fake,
00:25:21.040 there was another one
00:25:21.800 in place to sort of prove
00:25:23.640 these are, of course,
00:25:24.820 the missing link fakes
00:25:25.800 I'm talking about.
00:25:26.660 But if you can explain
00:25:27.520 some of that progression
00:25:28.880 which allowed for
00:25:30.140 so much of the Catholic
00:25:31.540 intellectual world
00:25:32.420 to actually embrace
00:25:34.060 and accept as fact evolution.
00:25:36.760 Yes.
00:25:37.340 In the DVD series,
00:25:38.700 we go into
00:25:39.480 the most important
00:25:41.520 examples of this kind
00:25:43.740 in detail,
00:25:45.020 drawing from the
00:25:46.300 scientific literature.
00:25:47.040 But right now,
00:25:49.080 I want to just
00:25:49.880 zero in on
00:25:52.080 the most important
00:25:53.860 deception
00:25:54.560 that was successful
00:25:57.000 in convincing
00:25:58.500 a huge portion
00:26:00.940 of the Catholic
00:26:02.680 intellectual elite
00:26:03.980 that molecules
00:26:06.160 demand evolution
00:26:07.000 was sound science.
00:26:09.900 And this took place
00:26:11.300 very early on.
00:26:13.740 You see,
00:26:14.160 if you go back
00:26:15.440 to the time
00:26:16.780 when Charles Darwin
00:26:17.980 published his book
00:26:19.500 Origin of Species,
00:26:21.520 one of the remarkable
00:26:22.800 things
00:26:23.520 that you will learn
00:26:25.240 or discover
00:26:26.000 is that
00:26:27.340 when Darwin
00:26:28.460 first came out
00:26:29.420 with his book,
00:26:31.580 blessed Pope Pius IX
00:26:33.000 considered his ideas
00:26:35.480 so preposterous,
00:26:37.600 so absurd,
00:26:39.200 that he did not think
00:26:40.880 they merited
00:26:42.100 a serious
00:26:43.920 reputation.
00:26:45.880 We have
00:26:46.620 the foreword
00:26:48.100 that,
00:26:49.540 or recommendation
00:26:50.340 that blessed Pope
00:26:51.360 Pius IX wrote
00:26:52.380 for a book
00:26:53.920 by a French doctor
00:26:55.320 refuting
00:26:56.620 Darwin's
00:26:58.160 wild conjectures.
00:27:00.300 And in that
00:27:01.040 recommendation,
00:27:03.020 blessed Pope
00:27:03.760 Pius IX
00:27:04.480 calls
00:27:05.280 Darwin's
00:27:06.340 hypothesis
00:27:07.340 a tissue
00:27:08.600 of fables.
00:27:10.180 And this is
00:27:11.000 one of the reasons
00:27:11.760 why
00:27:12.260 at the first
00:27:13.500 Vatican Council,
00:27:14.580 which was convened
00:27:15.820 ten years
00:27:17.040 after the publication
00:27:18.400 of Origin of Species,
00:27:19.980 there was not
00:27:21.420 an explicit
00:27:22.620 anathema
00:27:23.340 against evolution
00:27:25.220 because at that
00:27:26.540 point,
00:27:27.540 it simply
00:27:28.240 wasn't
00:27:28.820 taken seriously.
00:27:30.540 There was,
00:27:31.340 however,
00:27:32.280 an anathema
00:27:33.040 that was handed
00:27:33.760 down by the
00:27:34.660 first Vatican Council,
00:27:35.840 which did exclude
00:27:38.180 evolution
00:27:39.600 from serious
00:27:40.740 consideration
00:27:41.460 by Catholics.
00:27:43.060 And that was
00:27:43.540 the anathema
00:27:44.140 which said
00:27:44.920 that if anyone
00:27:45.720 says
00:27:46.420 that to the
00:27:47.860 dogmas of the
00:27:48.660 faith
00:27:49.080 a new meaning
00:27:50.920 must be given
00:27:52.300 different
00:27:52.940 than what
00:27:54.320 has
00:27:55.280 been understood
00:27:56.680 and what is
00:27:57.640 currently taught,
00:27:59.460 let him be
00:28:00.200 anathema.
00:28:01.500 Now,
00:28:02.180 you have to
00:28:02.780 understand that
00:28:03.500 at the moment
00:28:04.280 that anathema
00:28:05.280 was handed
00:28:05.880 down.
00:28:06.900 What was
00:28:07.280 the gold
00:28:07.800 standard
00:28:08.340 for teaching
00:28:09.520 and preaching
00:28:10.200 the dogmas
00:28:10.880 of the Catholic
00:28:11.520 faith in the
00:28:12.320 whole world?
00:28:13.440 It was
00:28:13.960 the Catechism
00:28:15.140 of the Council
00:28:16.000 of Trent.
00:28:17.060 And anybody
00:28:17.740 can go online
00:28:18.880 and look up
00:28:20.200 the first article
00:28:21.040 of the Creed
00:28:21.720 in the Catechism
00:28:22.740 of Trent
00:28:23.200 and see
00:28:24.560 that the
00:28:25.900 Catechism
00:28:26.460 teaches
00:28:26.900 that God
00:28:28.240 created everything
00:28:29.280 by fiat,
00:28:30.360 by willing it
00:28:31.120 into existence.
00:28:32.140 there was
00:28:33.420 no evolution.
00:28:34.860 He created
00:28:35.400 all the
00:28:35.780 different kinds
00:28:36.440 of plants,
00:28:37.560 all the
00:28:38.020 heavenly bodies,
00:28:38.960 all the
00:28:39.240 different kinds
00:28:39.880 of animals,
00:28:40.960 Adam,
00:28:41.420 body and soul,
00:28:42.480 and Eve
00:28:43.040 from Adam's
00:28:43.780 side,
00:28:44.500 supernaturally.
00:28:46.260 And then the
00:28:46.880 Catechism is
00:28:47.580 very clear
00:28:48.280 that then he
00:28:49.580 stopped creating
00:28:51.120 new kinds
00:28:52.280 of creatures
00:28:52.860 because he
00:28:53.920 created everything
00:28:54.720 for us
00:28:55.580 in our first
00:28:56.560 appearance,
00:28:57.240 Adam and Eve,
00:28:57.980 we would say
00:28:58.620 in view of
00:28:59.720 the Incarnation
00:29:01.400 and the
00:29:01.660 Immaculate
00:29:02.100 Conception
00:29:02.620 and only
00:29:03.640 then did
00:29:05.100 the natural
00:29:05.760 order that
00:29:06.600 we are living
00:29:07.120 in now
00:29:07.600 begin.
00:29:08.420 So it
00:29:10.080 is impossible
00:29:11.160 for us
00:29:13.300 to learn
00:29:13.720 anything in
00:29:15.240 natural science
00:29:16.060 that is true,
00:29:17.300 be it in
00:29:17.860 astronomy,
00:29:18.720 in geology,
00:29:19.500 biology or any
00:29:20.340 other area of
00:29:20.920 natural science
00:29:21.660 that will ever
00:29:22.860 contradict the
00:29:24.320 dogma of
00:29:24.940 creation as
00:29:26.220 it's set
00:29:26.700 forth in the
00:29:27.780 Catechism of
00:29:28.400 the Council of
00:29:29.020 Trent.
00:29:29.280 But here's
00:29:30.300 what happened.
00:29:32.320 The most
00:29:33.000 successful
00:29:33.620 propagandist
00:29:34.840 for
00:29:35.820 microbe to
00:29:37.420 man evolution
00:29:38.060 was not
00:29:38.720 Charles Darwin
00:29:39.460 and it
00:29:39.960 wasn't even
00:29:40.620 T.H.
00:29:41.180 Huxley,
00:29:41.660 although he
00:29:42.060 was very
00:29:42.500 effective.
00:29:43.620 The most
00:29:44.500 effective
00:29:45.020 propagandist
00:29:46.020 for this
00:29:47.240 evolution
00:29:47.860 mythology
00:29:48.500 was the
00:29:49.560 German
00:29:49.960 anatomist
00:29:50.780 Ernst
00:29:51.280 Heckel.
00:29:52.960 Now,
00:29:54.240 everybody
00:29:54.840 of my
00:29:56.240 generation,
00:29:57.020 I would
00:29:57.200 say of
00:29:57.560 your
00:29:57.720 generation,
00:29:58.300 who took
00:29:59.560 a high
00:29:59.920 school
00:30:00.180 biology or
00:30:01.400 freshman
00:30:02.080 biology
00:30:02.560 course,
00:30:04.020 was taught
00:30:04.740 the same
00:30:06.420 fraudulent
00:30:07.520 pseudoscience
00:30:08.680 that Ernst
00:30:09.860 Heckel
00:30:10.300 successfully
00:30:11.560 presented to
00:30:12.540 the scientific
00:30:13.320 world as
00:30:14.500 fact.
00:30:15.520 What he
00:30:16.020 did was
00:30:16.680 he drew
00:30:18.020 a human
00:30:18.820 embryo,
00:30:19.900 he copied
00:30:20.700 it,
00:30:21.040 and said
00:30:22.120 that the
00:30:22.740 copy was
00:30:24.240 the fish,
00:30:25.380 embryo,
00:30:26.100 the chicken,
00:30:26.880 the pig,
00:30:27.400 the turtle,
00:30:27.900 and the
00:30:28.140 salamander at
00:30:29.380 the same
00:30:29.960 stage of
00:30:30.640 development.
00:30:32.200 And this
00:30:33.140 quote-unquote
00:30:34.180 evidence was
00:30:36.160 what he
00:30:36.680 used to
00:30:37.920 totally change
00:30:39.360 the intellectual
00:30:40.480 atmosphere in
00:30:42.220 the space of
00:30:42.940 one generation.
00:30:44.800 And we
00:30:45.220 know this.
00:30:46.420 Ernst
00:30:46.900 Heckel
00:30:47.220 himself
00:30:48.040 called,
00:30:50.120 liked to
00:30:51.360 talk about
00:30:52.040 at the
00:30:52.360 end of
00:30:52.620 his life,
00:30:53.660 evolution's
00:30:54.640 greatest
00:30:55.100 triumph.
00:30:56.400 And do
00:30:56.720 you know
00:30:56.880 what that
00:30:57.200 was?
00:30:58.380 In
00:30:59.140 1906,
00:31:00.420 Ernst
00:31:00.760 Heckel,
00:31:01.960 the most
00:31:02.540 effective
00:31:03.200 propagandist
00:31:04.240 for evolution
00:31:05.360 probably in
00:31:06.700 history,
00:31:07.440 called
00:31:09.120 evolution's
00:31:10.080 greatest
00:31:10.420 triumph
00:31:11.000 the
00:31:11.980 conversion
00:31:12.700 of
00:31:14.140 the
00:31:14.820 church
00:31:15.460 from a
00:31:16.900 position
00:31:17.380 of total
00:31:18.200 opposition
00:31:18.860 to this
00:31:20.860 evolutionary
00:31:21.540 mythology
00:31:22.300 to a
00:31:24.220 growing
00:31:24.620 acceptance
00:31:25.220 of it.
00:31:25.820 And he
00:31:26.120 identifies
00:31:26.680 the
00:31:27.200 Jesuits
00:31:27.800 as the
00:31:29.100 principal
00:31:29.660 leaders
00:31:30.180 in this
00:31:31.680 revolution
00:31:32.420 within the
00:31:33.780 Christian
00:31:34.140 community.
00:31:35.920 And so
00:31:36.380 what happened
00:31:37.300 was you
00:31:38.660 had from
00:31:40.060 the end
00:31:41.020 of the
00:31:41.240 19th
00:31:41.860 century
00:31:42.300 a growing
00:31:43.800 number of
00:31:45.020 leading Catholic
00:31:45.860 intellectuals
00:31:46.920 who became
00:31:48.020 convinced
00:31:48.760 that
00:31:49.960 Ernst
00:31:51.340 Heckel's
00:31:52.320 forgeries
00:31:53.100 reflected
00:31:54.420 reality
00:31:55.140 and that
00:31:56.620 this was
00:31:57.320 proof,
00:31:58.400 along with
00:31:59.000 other
00:31:59.400 proofs,
00:32:00.240 obviously,
00:32:00.860 that were
00:32:01.260 put forward,
00:32:02.120 like many
00:32:03.600 of which
00:32:04.040 were also
00:32:04.880 fraudulent,
00:32:05.660 like Piltdown
00:32:06.500 Man and
00:32:07.080 Nebraska
00:32:07.800 Man.
00:32:08.860 Here in the
00:32:09.440 United States,
00:32:10.820 Father John
00:32:11.520 Augustin
00:32:11.980 Zahm was
00:32:13.120 one of the
00:32:13.620 leading
00:32:13.980 intellectuals at
00:32:15.060 Notre Dame
00:32:15.640 University and
00:32:17.280 he embraced
00:32:18.080 evolution at
00:32:18.900 the beginning
00:32:19.320 of the
00:32:19.680 20th century
00:32:20.460 and he
00:32:22.420 used
00:32:23.140 Heckel's
00:32:24.000 drawings as
00:32:25.760 his principal
00:32:26.560 argument that
00:32:28.820 human beings
00:32:29.660 descended from
00:32:30.440 a one-celled
00:32:31.160 organism through
00:32:31.960 a natural
00:32:32.440 process of
00:32:33.140 evolution.
00:32:34.440 And then
00:32:34.800 you can see
00:32:36.160 that this
00:32:36.680 continued
00:32:37.440 throughout the
00:32:39.080 20th century.
00:32:39.980 So in
00:32:40.640 1970,
00:32:43.520 Father Carl
00:32:44.500 Rahner,
00:32:44.880 arguably the
00:32:45.760 most influential
00:32:46.720 Catholic theologian
00:32:47.820 of the
00:32:48.060 20th century,
00:32:50.000 writes that
00:32:50.800 he's convinced
00:32:51.800 that he went
00:32:53.740 through all the
00:32:54.480 stages of
00:32:55.120 evolution in
00:32:55.780 his mother's
00:32:56.360 womb.
00:32:56.680 He went
00:32:56.940 through a
00:32:57.300 fish stage
00:32:58.040 when he
00:32:58.620 had gills
00:32:59.300 and a
00:33:00.160 reptile stage
00:33:01.000 when he
00:33:01.300 had a
00:33:01.580 tail and
00:33:02.040 then only
00:33:02.420 finally reached
00:33:03.420 the human
00:33:04.740 stage of
00:33:05.340 evolution.
00:33:06.200 So I
00:33:07.160 hope the
00:33:07.560 audience can
00:33:08.180 see that
00:33:09.960 without
00:33:11.000 Father
00:33:11.640 Zahn's
00:33:12.540 acceptance
00:33:13.460 and his
00:33:14.220 success in
00:33:15.880 persuading
00:33:16.480 Notre Dame
00:33:17.220 University to
00:33:18.760 accept the
00:33:19.720 bogus
00:33:20.340 hypothesis of
00:33:22.160 molecules to
00:33:22.880 man evolution
00:33:23.580 at the
00:33:24.540 beginning of
00:33:25.060 the 20th
00:33:25.620 century.
00:33:26.260 There would
00:33:26.960 never have
00:33:27.440 been an
00:33:27.780 honorary degree
00:33:28.740 for Barack
00:33:29.840 Obama, the
00:33:30.540 most pro-abortion
00:33:31.580 political leader
00:33:32.420 in the world,
00:33:33.240 at the beginning
00:33:34.020 of the 21st
00:33:35.020 century,
00:33:35.440 because this
00:33:37.760 fraudulent
00:33:39.280 presentation of
00:33:42.460 evidence
00:33:43.020 purporting to
00:33:44.220 demonstrate that
00:33:45.880 humans are
00:33:47.200 descended by
00:33:49.340 a natural
00:33:49.840 process of
00:33:50.520 evolution from
00:33:51.260 a one-celled
00:33:51.940 organism and
00:33:52.540 that we go
00:33:53.460 through the
00:33:54.500 stages of
00:33:55.120 evolution in
00:33:55.700 our mother's
00:33:56.260 womb, this
00:33:57.220 was the very
00:33:57.800 thing that
00:33:59.040 gave a
00:33:59.860 pseudoscientific
00:34:00.980 justification to
00:34:03.060 the enemies of
00:34:04.900 life and
00:34:05.420 of the church
00:34:06.140 and of God
00:34:06.740 when they
00:34:07.700 wanted to
00:34:08.480 legalize
00:34:09.280 abortion and
00:34:10.620 abortifacient
00:34:11.380 contraception,
00:34:12.260 because now
00:34:12.740 they could
00:34:13.100 say, look,
00:34:14.740 you Catholics,
00:34:15.600 even your
00:34:16.100 smartest
00:34:16.520 intellectuals,
00:34:17.700 like Father
00:34:18.380 Zom, like
00:34:19.020 Father
00:34:19.400 Rahner, they
00:34:20.900 recognize that
00:34:22.060 evolution is a
00:34:22.920 fact.
00:34:23.880 How can you
00:34:24.500 people be so
00:34:25.360 stupid as to
00:34:27.060 think that what's
00:34:28.160 only going through
00:34:28.960 the fish stage
00:34:30.020 or the reptile
00:34:30.880 stage deserves
00:34:32.180 all the rights
00:34:33.120 and privileges?
00:34:33.880 of a fully
00:34:35.560 developed human
00:34:36.780 being?
00:34:37.900 And yet, in
00:34:39.720 spite of the
00:34:40.260 fact that in
00:34:41.600 the last
00:34:42.320 authoritative
00:34:43.540 magisterial document
00:34:44.820 on the subject
00:34:46.320 of evolution,
00:34:47.080 which was the
00:34:47.660 encyclical
00:34:48.240 Humanae Generis
00:34:49.260 of Pope Pius XII
00:34:50.880 in 1950, in
00:34:52.740 spite of the
00:34:53.300 fact that Pope
00:34:54.620 Pius XII gave
00:34:56.200 no permission
00:34:57.060 to Catholics
00:34:58.360 to believe or
00:34:59.960 teach evolution,
00:35:01.320 told the bishops,
00:35:02.160 you must teach
00:35:03.220 that everything
00:35:04.060 in Genesis
00:35:04.660 1 to 11
00:35:05.500 is true,
00:35:06.220 history, and
00:35:07.200 you must teach
00:35:08.120 that every word
00:35:09.320 in the Bible
00:35:09.860 is true,
00:35:10.540 whether it
00:35:10.940 talks about
00:35:11.680 natural science
00:35:13.040 or history
00:35:13.640 or faith
00:35:14.580 or morals.
00:35:15.440 In spite of
00:35:16.280 all of that,
00:35:17.940 the one
00:35:18.480 permission that
00:35:19.120 he did give,
00:35:20.020 the one
00:35:20.360 exhortation,
00:35:21.320 if you will,
00:35:22.720 was to
00:35:23.540 examine the
00:35:24.800 evidence for
00:35:25.940 and against
00:35:26.760 the evolution
00:35:27.860 hypothesis,
00:35:29.020 and there he
00:35:30.060 was not
00:35:30.520 obeyed.
00:35:31.600 Because in
00:35:33.100 1959,
00:35:35.100 Sir Julian
00:35:35.840 Huxley,
00:35:36.480 the leading
00:35:37.220 scientist
00:35:39.400 champion
00:35:40.080 of evolution
00:35:41.160 in the whole
00:35:41.760 wide world,
00:35:43.200 after 100
00:35:44.520 years of
00:35:46.100 having the
00:35:47.700 evolutionists in
00:35:48.560 control of most
00:35:49.760 of the universities
00:35:50.660 and research
00:35:51.960 centers in the
00:35:52.580 world,
00:35:53.480 he laid it on
00:35:54.300 the line that
00:35:55.280 embryology gave
00:35:56.980 the most
00:35:58.040 striking proof
00:35:59.260 for evolution.
00:36:01.640 And what
00:36:01.980 was the
00:36:03.200 proof in
00:36:03.600 embryology?
00:36:04.540 It was
00:36:05.020 Heckel's
00:36:05.720 drawings.
00:36:06.560 Well,
00:36:07.220 in 1994,
00:36:10.100 Michael
00:36:10.660 Richardson
00:36:11.160 published
00:36:12.820 actual
00:36:13.720 photographs
00:36:14.600 of the
00:36:15.700 human embryo
00:36:16.600 and the
00:36:17.440 embryos of
00:36:18.240 the other
00:36:18.660 kinds of
00:36:19.240 creatures
00:36:19.680 featured in
00:36:20.380 Heckel's
00:36:20.800 drawings in
00:36:21.900 Scientific
00:36:22.520 American.
00:36:23.060 And we
00:36:24.520 have those
00:36:25.020 drawings in
00:36:25.660 the DVD
00:36:26.120 series,
00:36:26.640 those
00:36:26.820 photographs in
00:36:27.740 the DVD
00:36:28.140 series,
00:36:28.980 and they
00:36:29.620 make perfectly
00:36:30.520 clear that
00:36:32.240 the human
00:36:32.900 embryo is
00:36:34.680 totally distinct
00:36:36.160 from the
00:36:37.200 embryos of
00:36:37.960 all the other
00:36:38.560 kinds of
00:36:39.040 creatures at
00:36:39.620 the same
00:36:40.020 stage of
00:36:40.520 development.
00:36:41.120 But in
00:36:41.620 addition,
00:36:42.480 each kind
00:36:43.820 of creature
00:36:44.320 is also
00:36:45.240 distinct in
00:36:46.940 its embryonic
00:36:47.680 development from
00:36:48.620 all the other
00:36:49.260 kinds of
00:36:49.780 creatures.
00:36:50.640 So here's a
00:36:51.640 great example
00:36:52.700 of where
00:36:53.820 real science
00:36:55.280 totally
00:36:56.440 destroys
00:36:57.760 this
00:36:59.040 icon of
00:37:01.440 evolution,
00:37:02.320 which was
00:37:03.000 the principal
00:37:03.680 means that
00:37:04.920 was used
00:37:05.700 by Ernst
00:37:06.760 Heckel,
00:37:07.320 M.T.H.
00:37:07.840 Huxley,
00:37:08.260 and others
00:37:08.700 to convince
00:37:09.960 Catholic
00:37:10.820 intellectuals
00:37:12.460 that
00:37:13.160 microbe-to-man
00:37:14.380 evolution was
00:37:15.520 so solidly
00:37:17.540 based that
00:37:18.700 we simply
00:37:19.240 had to
00:37:19.720 accept it
00:37:20.460 and somehow
00:37:21.360 accommodate
00:37:22.140 the
00:37:23.040 traditional
00:37:23.560 teaching of
00:37:24.240 the church
00:37:24.760 to this
00:37:25.320 fact of
00:37:26.720 molecules-to-man
00:37:27.980 evolution.
00:37:29.520 Wow.
00:37:30.600 Unbelievable.
00:37:31.380 So this is
00:37:32.240 the same
00:37:32.820 kind of thing.
00:37:33.440 I just want
00:37:33.920 to make sure
00:37:34.480 our viewers
00:37:35.180 know that
00:37:35.660 in your
00:37:36.320 series you
00:37:36.740 cover all
00:37:37.560 the current
00:37:38.380 in vogue
00:37:39.480 explanations.
00:37:40.160 In fact,
00:37:40.660 many Catholic
00:37:41.460 intellectuals are
00:37:42.320 prideful in
00:37:43.360 the fact that
00:37:43.760 there's a
00:37:44.320 Monsignor
00:37:44.840 Lemaître,
00:37:45.380 a Catholic
00:37:45.820 priest,
00:37:46.140 who helped
00:37:46.540 formulate the
00:37:47.240 Big Bang
00:37:47.680 hypothesis.
00:37:48.440 Now we even
00:37:48.820 have a show
00:37:49.380 named the
00:37:49.760 Big Bang
00:37:50.080 theory and
00:37:51.040 all this
00:37:51.580 goes on.
00:37:52.100 You guys
00:37:52.460 address that
00:37:52.940 in Foundations
00:37:53.640 Restored,
00:37:54.240 do you not?
00:37:55.220 Absolutely.
00:37:55.900 We address it
00:37:56.620 in detail,
00:37:58.880 all the
00:37:59.380 principal
00:37:59.920 arguments
00:38:01.080 and the
00:38:02.660 principal
00:38:03.240 bodies of
00:38:03.860 evidence that
00:38:04.480 are put
00:38:04.860 forward by
00:38:06.420 those who
00:38:06.920 claim that
00:38:07.860 the Big Bang
00:38:09.200 cosmology is
00:38:10.320 settled science.
00:38:11.360 Well, it's
00:38:11.740 not.
00:38:12.280 And we show
00:38:13.120 that the
00:38:14.200 actual
00:38:14.680 observations
00:38:15.860 that astronomers
00:38:17.180 make do
00:38:19.220 not add up
00:38:20.240 with the
00:38:20.800 Big Bang
00:38:21.300 hypothesis.
00:38:22.760 Everything that
00:38:23.440 we observe
00:38:24.120 is consistent
00:38:26.300 with the
00:38:27.320 traditional
00:38:27.820 teaching of
00:38:28.860 the Church
00:38:29.340 on creation.
00:38:30.520 And one
00:38:31.180 very important
00:38:31.960 point that
00:38:33.380 is established
00:38:34.240 in the
00:38:35.420 episode on
00:38:36.620 cosmology by
00:38:38.360 Dr. Wolfgang
00:38:39.340 Smith, who's
00:38:40.240 done amazing
00:38:42.020 work as a
00:38:43.580 philosopher of
00:38:44.360 science,
00:38:44.900 exposing the
00:38:46.780 rotten
00:38:47.200 philosophical
00:38:48.000 foundations of
00:38:49.560 this Cartesian
00:38:51.020 Darwinian
00:38:52.120 worldview.
00:38:53.900 One of the
00:38:54.520 points that he
00:38:55.160 makes is that
00:38:56.680 in recent
00:38:57.860 decades, the
00:39:00.600 information that
00:39:02.380 astronomers have
00:39:03.320 been able to
00:39:03.980 collect, not
00:39:05.120 only through
00:39:05.560 their telescopes,
00:39:06.480 but also from
00:39:07.280 the sophisticated
00:39:08.260 space probes that
00:39:09.580 have been sent
00:39:10.160 out into deep
00:39:11.040 space, has
00:39:12.380 now given us
00:39:13.340 absolutely
00:39:14.440 overwhelming
00:39:15.440 evidence that
00:39:17.280 the Earth, far
00:39:18.940 from being, as
00:39:19.860 Carl Sagan would
00:39:21.180 have us believe,
00:39:22.520 like a speck of
00:39:23.500 dirt in a
00:39:24.240 remote corner of
00:39:25.940 a vast universe,
00:39:26.840 is actually in a
00:39:29.540 very favored
00:39:30.320 position at or
00:39:31.980 near the center
00:39:33.400 of the entire
00:39:34.600 universe.
00:39:35.380 universe.
00:39:35.580 And this is
00:39:36.860 extremely important
00:39:37.940 for the pro-life
00:39:40.580 community, because
00:39:41.920 whether we have
00:39:44.100 really thought about
00:39:44.920 this or not, the
00:39:46.540 principal reason
00:39:47.760 why people seek
00:39:50.400 death for their
00:39:52.240 unborn children, for
00:39:54.260 their enemies, for
00:39:56.180 themselves, is
00:39:57.780 because they do
00:39:59.000 not believe that
00:40:01.460 their life has
00:40:03.240 value.
00:40:03.720 value, they do
00:40:04.560 not believe that
00:40:05.420 the lives of
00:40:06.080 other human
00:40:06.640 beings have
00:40:07.320 value, they
00:40:08.240 don't believe that
00:40:09.740 there is a God
00:40:11.100 who cares about
00:40:12.640 them.
00:40:13.340 Well, one of the
00:40:14.560 biggest contributors
00:40:16.660 to this diabolical
00:40:19.180 depression and
00:40:21.540 despair that is
00:40:22.500 taking over the
00:40:23.320 world is this
00:40:24.900 idea which is
00:40:25.960 drummed into all
00:40:27.300 of us, I'm
00:40:28.820 sorry to say, in
00:40:30.180 Catholic schools,
00:40:31.080 almost as much
00:40:32.220 as in secular
00:40:33.680 schools, that we
00:40:35.200 are in fact
00:40:36.020 sitting on a
00:40:37.520 speck of dirt
00:40:38.340 in a remote
00:40:39.880 corner of a
00:40:41.400 vast universe
00:40:42.180 and that we're
00:40:44.440 a kind of an
00:40:45.200 accident or
00:40:46.280 afterthought
00:40:47.120 after 13.7
00:40:48.980 years, 13.7
00:40:51.160 billion years
00:40:52.220 of cosmic
00:40:53.200 evolution.
00:40:54.260 Whether anybody
00:40:56.080 reflects on this
00:40:57.140 or not, this is
00:40:59.080 a very depressing
00:41:00.400 way to look
00:41:02.120 at oneself
00:41:03.000 and it is
00:41:04.280 completely false
00:41:05.540 and Dr. Smith
00:41:06.980 shows that the
00:41:08.320 empirical evidence
00:41:09.820 has now
00:41:11.080 accumulated to
00:41:12.000 the point
00:41:12.500 where it is
00:41:13.860 simply undeniable
00:41:15.060 that the
00:41:16.440 earth is at
00:41:18.080 or near the
00:41:18.920 center of the
00:41:19.880 entire universe
00:41:20.800 and there are
00:41:22.340 many, many
00:41:23.400 bodies of
00:41:24.120 evidence,
00:41:25.300 gamma-ray
00:41:26.220 bursts,
00:41:27.260 quasars,
00:41:27.900 galaxies,
00:41:28.980 binary stars,
00:41:30.620 hot and cold
00:41:31.540 temperature regions
00:41:32.620 in space.
00:41:34.080 All of these
00:41:34.780 things are,
00:41:36.640 believe it or
00:41:37.060 not,
00:41:38.040 aligned in
00:41:39.460 relation to
00:41:40.720 the earth and
00:41:41.420 the plane of
00:41:42.020 the earth and
00:41:42.520 the sun.
00:41:43.300 This is not
00:41:44.320 hyperbole.
00:41:45.740 This is hard
00:41:47.060 scientific fact
00:41:48.220 and this is
00:41:50.240 just one of
00:41:51.260 many, many
00:41:52.040 treasures that
00:41:52.980 viewers can
00:41:54.480 take and
00:41:55.640 derive from
00:41:56.480 this DVD series
00:41:57.600 which will
00:41:58.680 confirm them
00:41:59.700 in the truth
00:42:00.420 that you
00:42:02.320 are the
00:42:02.760 apple of
00:42:03.300 God's eye.
00:42:04.560 This is the
00:42:05.620 only place
00:42:06.280 where God
00:42:06.780 became a
00:42:07.380 man.
00:42:08.120 This is the
00:42:08.660 only place
00:42:09.440 where the
00:42:10.220 mother of
00:42:10.680 God gave
00:42:11.420 birth to
00:42:11.980 the son of
00:42:12.540 God.
00:42:13.640 You have
00:42:14.800 infinite value
00:42:17.320 in the sight
00:42:18.580 of God and
00:42:19.220 so do all
00:42:20.140 of your
00:42:20.640 human brothers
00:42:22.020 and sisters
00:42:22.640 at whatever
00:42:23.420 stage of
00:42:24.120 development.
00:42:25.320 Now you
00:42:26.360 mentioned
00:42:26.560 something very
00:42:27.040 interesting there
00:42:27.600 because I
00:42:27.980 think a lot
00:42:28.820 of the
00:42:28.980 people who
00:42:29.520 will have
00:42:30.180 scientists
00:42:30.760 even who
00:42:31.880 will have
00:42:32.260 recognized the
00:42:33.600 fakes and
00:42:34.220 the nonsense
00:42:34.760 might be
00:42:35.680 willing to
00:42:36.060 concede,
00:42:36.560 okay, maybe
00:42:37.360 this molecules
00:42:38.180 to man
00:42:38.640 evolution isn't
00:42:40.160 kosher, but
00:42:41.800 very few of
00:42:43.000 them are
00:42:43.380 willing to
00:42:43.940 accept the
00:42:45.080 notion that
00:42:46.840 the universe
00:42:47.420 isn't just
00:42:48.000 billions of
00:42:48.860 years old,
00:42:49.480 that dinosaurs
00:42:50.100 became extinct
00:42:50.900 65 million
00:42:51.680 years ago.
00:42:52.420 how do
00:42:53.420 the scientists
00:42:54.300 involved with
00:42:55.240 Foundations
00:42:55.680 Restored and
00:42:56.160 your work
00:42:56.520 tackle those
00:42:57.180 topics?
00:42:58.240 Certainly,
00:42:58.820 well, the
00:43:00.280 first thing
00:43:01.080 that we have
00:43:02.340 to do, and
00:43:03.780 we do this
00:43:04.540 in the DVD
00:43:05.240 series, is
00:43:06.720 to show how
00:43:08.460 the idea of
00:43:09.640 long ages
00:43:10.560 came to be
00:43:11.920 accepted.
00:43:12.940 Because the
00:43:14.480 average person
00:43:15.400 is given the
00:43:17.080 impression as I
00:43:18.000 was, even
00:43:18.640 though I was
00:43:19.120 supposedly educated
00:43:20.360 in very
00:43:21.240 excellent,
00:43:22.420 institutions,
00:43:23.800 we are given
00:43:25.020 the impression
00:43:25.780 that the
00:43:28.360 conclusion that
00:43:30.420 the earth and
00:43:31.020 the universe are
00:43:31.760 billions of
00:43:32.400 years old is
00:43:33.840 some kind of
00:43:34.600 straightforward
00:43:35.220 inference from
00:43:37.640 empirical science.
00:43:39.680 That is not
00:43:40.480 the case.
00:43:41.920 As we document
00:43:42.900 in the DVD
00:43:43.740 series, the
00:43:45.460 actual sequence
00:43:47.100 of events was
00:43:48.140 first you had
00:43:49.760 the philosophical
00:43:51.240 revolution, where
00:43:53.180 Descartes and
00:43:53.900 Immanuel Kant and
00:43:55.580 the so-called
00:43:56.320 Enlightenment
00:43:56.960 philosophers simply
00:44:00.060 assumed that we
00:44:02.020 could explain
00:44:02.740 everything in
00:44:04.120 terms of the
00:44:05.400 same natural
00:44:06.160 processes that
00:44:07.360 are going on
00:44:07.980 now.
00:44:09.200 And then on
00:44:10.040 that assumption,
00:44:11.360 because that's
00:44:11.980 not a
00:44:12.880 straightforward
00:44:13.320 conclusion from
00:44:15.320 anything that we
00:44:16.120 observe in
00:44:16.980 nature, from
00:44:18.900 that assumption,
00:44:20.400 Charles Lyell and
00:44:21.680 James Hutton and
00:44:23.160 their disciples
00:44:24.060 revolutionized the
00:44:27.660 new science of
00:44:28.640 geology, because
00:44:30.260 they said, well,
00:44:31.500 if everything is
00:44:33.400 the same, if
00:44:34.340 everything's been
00:44:35.060 the same from the
00:44:36.500 beginning, then
00:44:38.000 obviously there never
00:44:39.040 was anything like a
00:44:40.040 global flood, that
00:44:41.080 must just be a
00:44:41.840 fairy tale, so we
00:44:43.360 have to be able to
00:44:44.380 explain everything
00:44:45.680 that we see in
00:44:47.320 the rocks all over
00:44:48.220 the earth in
00:44:49.280 terms of the
00:44:49.960 same gradual
00:44:51.000 localized processes
00:44:52.640 that we see
00:44:53.360 going on now.
00:44:54.820 And so, of
00:44:55.360 course, when they
00:44:56.440 looked at big
00:44:57.800 sedimentary rock
00:44:58.680 formations like the
00:44:59.940 Grand Canyon, they
00:45:01.480 assumed that these
00:45:03.260 things must have
00:45:03.980 taken enormous
00:45:05.600 periods of time to
00:45:06.860 form.
00:45:07.680 But that was not
00:45:09.620 the result of any
00:45:11.280 kind of empirical
00:45:12.220 research.
00:45:12.960 research, they
00:45:13.400 had no facilities
00:45:14.460 for doing real
00:45:16.060 empirical research
00:45:17.260 in the field of
00:45:18.520 sedimentology.
00:45:19.700 And we show in the
00:45:20.720 DVD series that
00:45:22.560 since scientists
00:45:24.360 have developed
00:45:25.180 those kinds of
00:45:26.360 facilities, we've
00:45:27.740 been able to show
00:45:28.880 empirically that
00:45:31.040 Lyell and Hutton had
00:45:32.440 no proper
00:45:33.260 understanding of
00:45:34.580 how sediments are
00:45:35.620 laid down in the
00:45:36.400 real world, and
00:45:37.980 that when you
00:45:39.020 apply the
00:45:40.500 discoveries that
00:45:41.200 we've made from
00:45:42.100 actual empirical
00:45:42.960 research in the
00:45:44.120 field of
00:45:44.460 sedimentology, it's
00:45:46.060 easy to explain
00:45:47.380 the huge sedimentary
00:45:49.260 rock formations all
00:45:50.380 over the earth like
00:45:51.100 the Grand Canyon as
00:45:52.640 having been laid
00:45:53.520 down very, very
00:45:54.540 rapidly in the, or
00:45:57.280 as a consequence of
00:45:58.740 the global flood.
00:45:59.780 And that's a much
00:46:00.540 better and much more
00:46:02.100 complete explanation
00:46:03.340 for what we see
00:46:04.400 than the Lyellian
00:46:06.280 geology.
00:46:07.020 But what happened?
00:46:08.680 Lyell was a very
00:46:10.200 good salesman for
00:46:11.740 his ideas, Darwin
00:46:13.180 took them on
00:46:13.980 board, and they
00:46:15.300 became mainstream.
00:46:17.360 And so, without any
00:46:19.420 kind of proof that
00:46:22.040 the earth was
00:46:23.080 billions of years
00:46:24.140 old, it was simply
00:46:25.880 assumed that if it
00:46:27.940 required these long
00:46:29.400 ages of time to lay
00:46:31.340 down the sedimentary
00:46:32.440 rocks all over the
00:46:33.320 earth, well then
00:46:34.180 obviously the earth
00:46:36.120 had to be very
00:46:36.920 ancient, and then
00:46:37.960 everything else in the
00:46:39.160 universe had to be
00:46:40.420 even more ancient
00:46:41.420 than that.
00:46:42.860 Only then was the
00:46:45.720 science of radiometric
00:46:47.440 dating invented at
00:46:48.520 the very end of the
00:46:49.660 19th century.
00:46:51.540 And so, at that
00:46:52.500 point, all the
00:46:54.220 radiometric dating
00:46:55.060 results were
00:46:56.300 shoehorned into
00:46:58.240 this geological
00:47:00.000 framework that had
00:47:01.780 been constructed
00:47:02.680 pretty much from
00:47:04.420 speculation before the
00:47:07.360 end of the 19th
00:47:08.360 century.
00:47:09.600 And everything
00:47:11.020 else that was
00:47:13.020 taken on board in
00:47:14.580 terms of empirical
00:47:15.840 research was
00:47:17.380 forced into the
00:47:18.680 framework that was
00:47:19.580 developed by Darwin
00:47:21.340 and Lyell and their
00:47:23.000 disciples in the
00:47:23.840 19th century.
00:47:25.100 So, that's the first
00:47:26.200 thing that everybody
00:47:26.880 needs to understand.
00:47:28.620 Now, when you
00:47:30.440 understand this, then
00:47:31.760 it becomes much
00:47:32.640 easier to recognize
00:47:34.780 that radiometric
00:47:38.160 dating, which is
00:47:39.820 the principal
00:47:40.540 means that is
00:47:41.820 used to
00:47:42.420 supposedly prove
00:47:43.760 beyond a shadow
00:47:44.620 of a doubt that
00:47:46.040 the Earth is
00:47:46.700 4.5 billion years
00:47:48.460 old and that
00:47:49.720 the universe is
00:47:50.780 13.7 or 13.8
00:47:53.940 billion years
00:47:54.580 old, in
00:47:56.980 conjunction with
00:47:57.780 other observations
00:47:59.280 of redshift
00:48:01.180 from stars, which
00:48:03.200 are interpreted
00:48:03.860 in a certain
00:48:04.500 way, what
00:48:05.680 people need to
00:48:06.280 understand is
00:48:07.180 all of these
00:48:08.840 radiometric dating
00:48:10.240 methods that are
00:48:11.060 used to arrive
00:48:13.020 at ages of
00:48:14.820 hundreds of
00:48:15.360 millions or
00:48:15.860 billions of
00:48:16.420 years are not
00:48:18.000 straightforward
00:48:18.760 observations.
00:48:20.880 They are based
00:48:22.700 on several
00:48:24.280 unprovable and
00:48:26.160 actually quite
00:48:27.000 unreasonable
00:48:27.780 assumptions.
00:48:29.280 And when
00:48:29.880 those assumptions
00:48:31.220 are examined
00:48:32.080 and found
00:48:33.600 to be unreasonable,
00:48:35.180 it becomes
00:48:36.300 possible to
00:48:37.220 see that it's
00:48:38.080 actually much
00:48:38.800 more reasonable
00:48:39.540 to explain
00:48:40.920 everything that
00:48:41.760 we see in
00:48:43.180 terms of the
00:48:43.900 chronology derived
00:48:45.700 from the Holy
00:48:46.760 Scriptures, which
00:48:48.220 is the chronology
00:48:49.160 that was accepted
00:48:50.160 by all the
00:48:51.640 fathers, doctors,
00:48:53.300 popes, and
00:48:53.800 council fathers
00:48:54.660 up until very
00:48:55.900 recent times,
00:48:57.320 in complete
00:48:58.120 opposition to
00:49:00.060 the pagan
00:49:01.400 intellectuals of
00:49:03.200 the patristic
00:49:03.820 era, most
00:49:05.140 of whom
00:49:05.620 believed in
00:49:06.780 something like
00:49:07.500 evolution over
00:49:08.500 long ages and
00:49:09.620 had various,
00:49:11.520 you know,
00:49:12.220 ideas about
00:49:13.440 millions and
00:49:14.480 billions of
00:49:15.060 years having
00:49:16.160 gone on in
00:49:16.820 the past.
00:49:18.100 One of the
00:49:19.020 great examples,
00:49:21.160 though, that we
00:49:22.100 focus on in the
00:49:23.740 DVD series is
00:49:25.640 that the most
00:49:27.220 reliable radiometric
00:49:29.000 dating method
00:49:29.700 that we have
00:49:30.720 is actually
00:49:31.940 carbon-14,
00:49:33.840 because carbon
00:49:35.280 is present in
00:49:36.140 all living
00:49:36.660 things, and
00:49:38.140 carbon-14,
00:49:39.740 which is a
00:49:40.580 radioactive isotope
00:49:41.980 of carbon,
00:49:42.920 has a very short
00:49:44.080 half-life, meaning
00:49:45.020 that it decays
00:49:46.140 very rapidly
00:49:47.040 back into
00:49:48.160 nitrogen-14,
00:49:49.880 and therefore,
00:49:51.480 Libby, who got
00:49:52.520 the Nobel Prize
00:49:53.520 for developing
00:49:54.380 the carbon-14
00:49:55.880 dating method,
00:49:56.700 realized that he
00:49:58.320 could actually
00:49:58.980 take objects
00:50:00.920 from artifacts
00:50:03.280 of known age
00:50:04.580 from historical
00:50:05.700 records, like,
00:50:06.840 for example, a
00:50:07.480 piece of wood
00:50:08.300 from the tomb
00:50:09.320 of an Egyptian
00:50:09.980 mummy, and
00:50:11.500 by looking at
00:50:12.620 the amount of
00:50:13.960 carbon-14 in
00:50:16.220 that sample
00:50:17.460 and the ratio
00:50:19.300 between carbon-14
00:50:21.220 and carbon-12,
00:50:22.400 he could actually
00:50:23.780 make a realistic
00:50:24.960 estimate of
00:50:26.560 when that
00:50:27.540 particular object
00:50:28.800 died, let's
00:50:31.520 say, if it was
00:50:32.400 a tree from
00:50:33.100 which the wood
00:50:33.680 had been
00:50:33.960 extracted.
00:50:35.200 Now, the
00:50:36.300 interesting thing
00:50:37.120 is, because
00:50:38.560 carbon-14 has
00:50:39.980 such a short
00:50:40.760 half-life, after
00:50:42.760 50 to 100,000
00:50:44.260 years, there
00:50:45.720 will not be
00:50:46.460 one single
00:50:47.400 atom of
00:50:48.020 carbon-14
00:50:48.860 left in the
00:50:50.280 remains of
00:50:51.420 any plant,
00:50:52.320 animal, or
00:50:52.940 human being.
00:50:54.380 Therefore, if
00:50:55.940 the evolution
00:50:56.700 story is true,
00:50:59.140 then virtually
00:51:00.460 everything in
00:51:02.320 the entire
00:51:03.080 so-called
00:51:03.720 geologic column
00:51:04.940 should be
00:51:06.100 completely
00:51:06.800 carbon-14
00:51:08.060 dead.
00:51:08.600 There shouldn't
00:51:09.120 be one single
00:51:10.120 atom of
00:51:11.300 carbon-14
00:51:12.200 left in the
00:51:13.620 remains of
00:51:14.160 any plant,
00:51:15.300 animal, or
00:51:15.880 human that is
00:51:17.100 more than
00:51:17.620 100,000 years
00:51:18.900 old.
00:51:20.400 But what
00:51:20.840 does a good
00:51:22.140 scientist do?
00:51:23.160 Does he just
00:51:23.660 accept that
00:51:24.960 this is the
00:51:25.680 conventional
00:51:26.160 wisdom, or
00:51:27.380 does he put
00:51:27.960 it to the
00:51:28.340 test?
00:51:28.800 The good
00:51:29.240 scientist will
00:51:30.680 test and
00:51:32.040 validate the
00:51:33.520 conventional
00:51:34.060 wisdom and
00:51:35.460 see if he can
00:51:36.140 falsify it.
00:51:37.420 And this is
00:51:37.920 exactly what a
00:51:39.520 team of
00:51:39.940 scientists
00:51:40.520 affiliated with
00:51:41.420 the Colby
00:51:41.860 Center has
00:51:42.440 done over
00:51:43.400 the last 20
00:51:44.180 years, and
00:51:45.280 we report on
00:51:46.080 this in detail
00:51:47.100 in the DVD
00:51:47.880 series.
00:51:49.140 They have
00:51:49.800 collected
00:51:50.300 dinosaur bones
00:51:51.400 from many
00:51:52.260 different locations.
00:51:54.040 They have
00:51:54.820 sent portions
00:51:55.920 of these
00:51:56.620 dinosaur bones
00:51:57.580 to world-class
00:51:59.020 laboratories,
00:52:00.000 where they have
00:52:00.880 a machine called
00:52:01.660 an accelerated
00:52:02.240 mass spectrometer
00:52:03.280 that can
00:52:04.080 actually count
00:52:05.100 the number
00:52:05.940 of carbon-14
00:52:07.020 and carbon-12
00:52:08.700 atoms in a
00:52:09.420 sample.
00:52:10.700 And we
00:52:11.700 have been
00:52:13.080 able to
00:52:13.560 demonstrate
00:52:14.040 that every
00:52:15.420 single one
00:52:16.320 of those
00:52:17.500 dinosaur bones
00:52:18.560 contains
00:52:19.840 substantial
00:52:20.720 amounts of
00:52:21.940 carbon-14,
00:52:23.200 which proves
00:52:24.260 that these
00:52:24.800 dinosaurs lived
00:52:26.480 thousands of
00:52:27.700 years ago and
00:52:28.980 did not become
00:52:29.860 extinct 65
00:52:31.380 million years
00:52:32.300 ago, as all
00:52:33.420 of us were
00:52:34.260 taught in
00:52:34.740 school.
00:52:35.560 And in fact,
00:52:36.700 we go on to
00:52:37.760 show in the
00:52:38.320 DVD series that
00:52:39.980 the scientific
00:52:40.660 literature is
00:52:41.740 full, and I'm
00:52:42.340 talking about
00:52:43.000 peer-reviewed
00:52:44.120 scientific journals,
00:52:45.080 are full of
00:52:47.840 credible reports
00:52:49.440 of carbon-14
00:52:51.260 being found in
00:52:52.800 the remains of
00:52:54.260 plants and
00:52:54.940 animals at
00:52:55.860 every level of
00:52:57.600 the so-called
00:52:58.220 geological column,
00:53:00.160 even in things
00:53:01.020 that are supposed
00:53:01.540 to be hundreds
00:53:02.360 of millions of
00:53:03.200 years old.
00:53:03.960 And what does
00:53:04.860 this tell us?
00:53:05.940 It tells us that
00:53:07.080 all of the
00:53:07.900 remains of
00:53:09.460 these plants
00:53:10.260 and animals are
00:53:11.740 actually only
00:53:12.760 thousands of
00:53:13.720 years old, and
00:53:14.980 they were all
00:53:16.120 deposited at
00:53:18.060 more or less
00:53:18.900 the same time.
00:53:20.460 And that, of
00:53:21.160 course, is
00:53:21.800 100% consistent
00:53:23.340 with the
00:53:24.620 sacred history
00:53:25.260 of Genesis,
00:53:26.220 which tells us
00:53:27.300 that the entire
00:53:28.120 earth was
00:53:29.720 deluged during
00:53:31.880 Noah's flood,
00:53:32.920 and this
00:53:33.640 explains why
00:53:34.740 we find the
00:53:36.200 fossil record
00:53:36.940 that we do.
00:53:37.660 And we go
00:53:38.420 into that in
00:53:39.340 great detail
00:53:40.380 in another
00:53:41.460 episode where
00:53:42.260 we focus on
00:53:43.300 evidence for
00:53:44.080 a global
00:53:44.500 flood.
00:53:46.060 So, now
00:53:47.240 that we've
00:53:47.640 had, you
00:53:49.160 know, we
00:53:49.360 could have
00:53:49.600 had a lot
00:53:50.040 of great
00:53:50.460 research done
00:53:51.180 on questions
00:53:52.640 like what
00:53:53.280 happened to
00:53:53.700 the dinosaurs,
00:53:54.400 but people
00:53:54.800 have been so
00:53:56.140 taken with
00:53:57.100 the false
00:53:58.320 science of
00:53:59.000 evolution that
00:53:59.660 they said,
00:54:00.040 oh, it's
00:54:00.360 65 million
00:54:01.060 years ago and
00:54:01.640 all that.
00:54:02.440 What did
00:54:03.200 happen to
00:54:03.620 the dinosaurs
00:54:04.100 based on what
00:54:05.680 your research
00:54:06.240 has shown?
00:54:07.660 We know
00:54:08.420 that at
00:54:09.900 the time
00:54:10.380 of Noah,
00:54:12.440 God
00:54:13.000 miraculously
00:54:14.500 directed to
00:54:15.500 him representatives
00:54:17.300 of each
00:54:18.700 kind of
00:54:19.720 land animal,
00:54:21.540 and that
00:54:22.420 would have
00:54:22.680 included each
00:54:24.180 kind of
00:54:24.640 dinosaur.
00:54:26.160 However, it's
00:54:27.300 important to
00:54:27.860 recognize that
00:54:28.640 the average
00:54:29.580 size of a
00:54:30.180 dinosaur was
00:54:31.600 only about
00:54:32.280 the size of
00:54:32.840 a cow.
00:54:34.080 The great
00:54:35.020 big brachiosaurus
00:54:36.040 type dinosaurs
00:54:36.880 were the
00:54:37.420 exception,
00:54:38.100 not the
00:54:38.460 rule.
00:54:39.340 And of
00:54:39.600 course, with
00:54:40.560 that kind
00:54:41.040 of dinosaur,
00:54:41.820 Noah would
00:54:42.240 have taken
00:54:42.680 juveniles.
00:54:43.560 He wouldn't
00:54:43.880 have taken
00:54:44.340 a great
00:54:45.500 big T-Rex
00:54:46.440 or brachiosaurus
00:54:47.480 on board
00:54:48.520 the Ark,
00:54:49.000 even though
00:54:49.480 there was
00:54:50.340 plenty of
00:54:51.520 room.
00:54:51.920 There was
00:54:52.120 the equivalent
00:54:52.580 of 300
00:54:53.960 freight cars
00:54:55.680 of room
00:54:57.000 for the
00:54:58.740 animals and
00:54:59.480 their food
00:55:00.320 and water
00:55:00.840 on the
00:55:01.580 Ark.
00:55:01.820 and so
00:55:03.000 the vast
00:55:04.400 majority
00:55:04.860 of dinosaurs
00:55:05.900 were
00:55:07.120 actually
00:55:08.220 drowned
00:55:08.880 in the
00:55:09.960 waters and
00:55:10.720 sediments
00:55:11.320 of Noah's
00:55:12.720 flood.
00:55:13.080 And this
00:55:14.160 is completely
00:55:15.280 in line
00:55:15.920 with what
00:55:17.060 paleontologists
00:55:18.060 see in the
00:55:18.700 field because
00:55:19.340 most dinosaur
00:55:20.820 graveyards
00:55:21.820 consist of
00:55:23.800 dinosaurs,
00:55:25.500 disarticulated
00:55:27.280 bones,
00:55:27.940 mixed in
00:55:29.260 with the
00:55:30.280 bones of
00:55:31.160 marine
00:55:31.880 creatures.
00:55:33.340 And when
00:55:33.780 intact
00:55:34.480 skeletons of
00:55:35.640 dinosaurs are
00:55:36.300 found,
00:55:37.020 they are
00:55:37.520 usually found
00:55:38.480 in a
00:55:38.960 posture in
00:55:40.340 which they
00:55:40.760 are trying
00:55:41.520 to gasp
00:55:43.340 for air
00:55:44.020 because they
00:55:45.500 are being
00:55:45.940 drowned in
00:55:47.400 the sediments
00:55:48.180 of the
00:55:49.800 rising flood
00:55:50.580 waters.
00:55:51.500 We also
00:55:52.060 find many
00:55:53.920 distinctive
00:55:54.580 patterns in
00:55:56.280 the fossil
00:55:57.920 records such
00:55:59.100 as dinosaur
00:56:00.400 tracks at
00:56:01.660 one level
00:56:02.340 and then
00:56:03.260 above those
00:56:04.340 tracks we
00:56:05.560 find the
00:56:06.140 actual bones
00:56:07.180 in many
00:56:07.700 cases disarticulated
00:56:09.180 and mixed
00:56:09.760 together with
00:56:11.240 the remains
00:56:12.100 of marine
00:56:12.820 creatures.
00:56:13.800 Well,
00:56:14.300 what kind
00:56:15.200 of local
00:56:16.420 flood is
00:56:17.920 going to be
00:56:18.540 able to mix
00:56:19.520 together the
00:56:20.840 bones of
00:56:21.460 land-dwelling
00:56:22.280 dinosaurs with
00:56:23.780 marine creatures?
00:56:25.120 Obviously,
00:56:25.940 there's nothing
00:56:26.540 like that going
00:56:27.860 on today and
00:56:28.900 there never
00:56:29.340 has been
00:56:29.840 anything like
00:56:30.540 that except
00:56:31.820 for Noah's
00:56:33.280 flood and yet
00:56:33.900 we find this
00:56:34.640 all over the
00:56:35.340 world.
00:56:36.400 Now,
00:56:36.700 the dinosaurs
00:56:39.040 that came off
00:56:40.120 the ark
00:56:40.600 after the ark
00:56:42.020 landed were
00:56:43.640 also faced
00:56:44.480 with a much
00:56:45.080 more challenging
00:56:45.900 environment than
00:56:47.860 existed in the
00:56:49.220 pre-flood world
00:56:50.300 and those
00:56:51.940 dinosaurs that
00:56:53.700 were aggressive
00:56:55.360 if not to
00:56:57.180 humans then to
00:56:58.200 their livestock
00:56:58.900 were seen as
00:57:00.420 a threat and
00:57:01.260 this is why in
00:57:02.860 people groups all
00:57:03.800 over the world we
00:57:04.680 have traditions,
00:57:06.660 they're usually
00:57:07.240 called legends,
00:57:09.080 of heroes like
00:57:11.240 Beowulf, for
00:57:12.120 example, who
00:57:13.620 fought with
00:57:15.600 creatures that
00:57:16.840 are described
00:57:17.480 exactly like
00:57:19.000 dinosaurs and
00:57:20.500 they were rightly
00:57:21.160 considered heroes
00:57:22.300 because these
00:57:23.340 creatures, the
00:57:24.600 ones that were
00:57:25.320 of the order of
00:57:27.860 T-Rex, were
00:57:29.440 definitely a
00:57:30.460 serious threat
00:57:31.380 to human
00:57:33.500 society.
00:57:34.200 and so
00:57:35.300 between the
00:57:37.160 harsh
00:57:37.580 environmental
00:57:38.580 conditions that
00:57:40.180 dinosaurs had to
00:57:41.140 contend with
00:57:41.940 after they came
00:57:43.440 off the ark
00:57:44.120 because the
00:57:44.840 flood was
00:57:46.400 immediately succeeded
00:57:47.560 by an ice
00:57:49.540 age and I say
00:57:51.020 an ice age
00:57:51.860 because there
00:57:52.920 was only one
00:57:53.800 ice age that
00:57:55.240 lasted perhaps
00:57:56.200 500 to 700
00:57:57.340 years.
00:57:58.720 Obviously, there
00:57:59.280 were some
00:57:59.980 variations in
00:58:02.780 temperature and
00:58:03.980 glaciation during
00:58:05.340 the one ice age
00:58:06.760 but there
00:58:07.060 weren't these
00:58:07.520 multiple ice
00:58:08.780 ages that we
00:58:09.520 were taught.
00:58:10.560 They had it
00:58:11.060 taken place when
00:58:11.840 we were in
00:58:12.300 school and
00:58:13.640 those dinosaurs
00:58:15.180 that could
00:58:17.420 survive the
00:58:19.000 harsh environmental
00:58:20.220 conditions and
00:58:22.100 were any kind
00:58:23.040 of a threat to
00:58:23.820 human beings or
00:58:24.620 livestock were
00:58:26.020 hunted down and
00:58:27.980 if you've read
00:58:28.680 the poem Beowulf,
00:58:30.600 Grendel perfectly
00:58:32.500 matches the
00:58:33.200 description of
00:58:33.920 some kind of
00:58:34.640 T-Rex dinosaur.
00:58:36.020 In fact, Beowulf
00:58:37.280 kills Grendel
00:58:38.200 because he's
00:58:39.340 able to get
00:58:39.960 in close to
00:58:40.700 her and rip
00:58:41.940 one of her
00:58:42.520 little arms out
00:58:43.540 of its socket
00:58:44.200 so that she
00:58:44.820 bleeds to death.
00:58:46.480 And these are
00:58:47.540 not fantasies.
00:58:49.240 Beowulf is
00:58:49.840 talking about
00:58:50.580 historical people
00:58:51.700 and all over
00:58:53.280 the world we
00:58:54.640 find very
00:58:56.220 accurate drawings,
00:58:58.000 sculptures,
00:58:59.360 mosaics,
00:59:00.160 cave paintings of
00:59:01.640 all different
00:59:02.320 kinds of
00:59:02.900 dinosaurs.
00:59:04.420 And these
00:59:06.020 are very
00:59:08.020 clear evidence
00:59:08.860 that human
00:59:10.120 beings after
00:59:11.620 the flood
00:59:12.260 lived with
00:59:14.480 and encountered
00:59:15.640 these creatures.
00:59:16.960 Now, Carl
00:59:17.820 Sagan was
00:59:19.040 honest enough
00:59:19.780 to admit that
00:59:21.400 there were all
00:59:22.860 kinds of drawings
00:59:24.040 and sculptures
00:59:24.720 and other
00:59:25.180 artifacts that
00:59:26.680 gave very
00:59:27.320 realistic depictions
00:59:29.080 of different
00:59:29.800 kinds of
00:59:30.260 dinosaurs.
00:59:31.580 But being a
00:59:32.540 totally dogmatic
00:59:33.820 evolutionist,
00:59:34.740 his explanation
00:59:35.380 for that was
00:59:36.620 that we have
00:59:37.140 a genetic
00:59:37.740 memory of
00:59:39.180 when we lived
00:59:39.840 in the age
00:59:40.380 of reptiles.
00:59:41.920 And that's
00:59:42.380 why humans
00:59:43.580 all over the
00:59:44.160 world have
00:59:44.580 been able to
00:59:45.140 make these
00:59:45.560 very accurate
00:59:46.340 drawings and
00:59:47.280 sculptures and
00:59:48.300 cave paintings
00:59:49.300 of different
00:59:50.160 kinds of
00:59:50.700 dinosaurs.
00:59:51.840 But that
00:59:52.320 doesn't sound
00:59:53.060 like a very
00:59:53.700 scientific
00:59:54.620 explanation to
00:59:56.220 me.
00:59:56.660 And in
00:59:56.940 fact, if
00:59:57.920 that were
00:59:58.340 the case,
00:59:59.540 then you
01:00:00.000 would expect
01:00:00.620 that people
01:00:01.780 who lived
01:00:02.320 back in the
01:00:03.080 1600s when
01:00:04.320 many people
01:00:05.340 were literate
01:00:06.000 would have
01:00:07.140 at least a
01:00:08.220 few of them
01:00:08.660 gotten up in
01:00:09.300 the middle of
01:00:09.800 the night
01:00:10.200 with a dream
01:00:11.380 of being chased
01:00:12.420 down the
01:00:13.200 streets of
01:00:13.720 London or
01:00:14.340 Paris by a
01:00:15.780 T-Rex.
01:00:17.020 But we don't
01:00:17.660 hear anything
01:00:18.360 about that in
01:00:19.280 any of the
01:00:19.920 literature of
01:00:21.500 the Western
01:00:21.980 world until
01:00:23.600 the first
01:00:25.340 amateur
01:00:26.300 paleontologists
01:00:27.380 began digging
01:00:28.280 up dinosaur
01:00:29.080 skeletons and
01:00:30.220 assembling them.
01:00:31.960 And only at
01:00:32.540 that point did
01:00:33.420 the name
01:00:34.380 dinosaur come
01:00:35.560 into the
01:00:35.980 English language.
01:00:36.900 Prior to
01:00:37.440 that, the
01:00:38.680 word that was
01:00:39.380 used in the
01:00:40.900 English-speaking
01:00:41.500 world to
01:00:42.140 describe dinosaurs
01:00:43.100 was dragon.
01:00:44.860 And if you
01:00:45.580 read some of
01:00:46.920 the ancient
01:00:47.580 accounts of
01:00:49.080 dragons, you
01:00:50.380 will have no
01:00:51.020 doubt that a
01:00:52.600 number of them
01:00:53.160 are definitely
01:00:53.720 talking about
01:00:54.600 some kind of
01:00:55.580 dinosaur.
01:00:56.260 Now, we
01:00:58.100 don't go into
01:00:58.780 this point in
01:01:00.020 the DVD series,
01:01:01.520 but it is
01:01:02.540 very possible
01:01:04.760 that even
01:01:05.840 today in
01:01:07.640 certain remote
01:01:08.820 areas of the
01:01:09.680 world, there
01:01:10.740 are still
01:01:11.580 dinosaurs that
01:01:13.000 have been able
01:01:13.520 to survive
01:01:14.200 because they're
01:01:14.860 in extremely
01:01:15.960 remote environments
01:01:17.640 and do not
01:01:18.380 have much
01:01:18.900 contact with
01:01:20.220 human beings.
01:01:20.980 Probably the
01:01:22.020 most likely
01:01:22.640 candidate that
01:01:23.840 I know of
01:01:24.460 is in
01:01:25.000 New Guinea.
01:01:25.560 I have a
01:01:25.960 friend who's
01:01:26.440 a religious
01:01:26.860 brother.
01:01:28.000 His uncle
01:01:28.680 actually is a
01:01:30.820 pilot who
01:01:31.940 flies people,
01:01:33.380 missionaries,
01:01:34.400 teachers,
01:01:35.140 scientists,
01:01:35.740 doctors,
01:01:36.540 medical workers,
01:01:37.800 to very remote
01:01:39.000 locations in
01:01:40.140 New Guinea.
01:01:41.020 And he tells
01:01:43.100 me that there
01:01:43.800 are very,
01:01:45.280 very confident,
01:01:47.240 reliable,
01:01:47.760 honest witnesses
01:01:49.580 who have given
01:01:51.360 very sober
01:01:52.180 testimony to
01:01:53.180 having seen
01:01:54.200 a pterodactyl,
01:01:55.960 some kind of
01:01:56.740 flying dinosaur.
01:01:58.480 And these
01:01:58.800 descriptions that
01:02:00.280 they give agree
01:02:01.180 with each other
01:02:01.900 and they also
01:02:03.120 agree with
01:02:03.740 descriptions that
01:02:04.540 are given by
01:02:05.180 the indigenous
01:02:05.740 people.
01:02:07.240 So perhaps
01:02:07.920 under
01:02:09.280 Our Lady's
01:02:11.080 patronage,
01:02:12.260 some adventurous
01:02:13.360 young Catholics
01:02:14.460 will go out to
01:02:16.120 New Guinea and
01:02:16.840 become the
01:02:17.360 first ones to
01:02:18.360 videotape one
01:02:19.840 of these
01:02:20.280 surviving dinosaurs
01:02:21.560 and put another
01:02:22.580 nail in the
01:02:23.900 coffin of
01:02:25.080 molecules to
01:02:25.920 man evolution
01:02:27.260 mythology.
01:02:28.100 But the short
01:02:28.620 answer to your
01:02:29.220 question is all
01:02:31.080 the dinosaurs that
01:02:32.100 weren't on the
01:02:32.660 ark were
01:02:34.100 drowned in the
01:02:35.620 flood or the
01:02:36.320 sediments of the
01:02:37.020 flood.
01:02:37.780 Those that
01:02:38.540 survived had to
01:02:39.520 deal with very
01:02:40.200 harsh environmental
01:02:41.080 conditions and
01:02:42.640 they either died
01:02:43.480 out or were
01:02:44.380 hunted down.
01:02:45.140 And the few
01:02:46.640 that may still
01:02:47.540 survive in
01:02:49.160 remote locations
01:02:50.220 like New Guinea
01:02:51.000 or in the
01:02:52.680 Congo are in
01:02:55.400 extremely remote
01:02:56.740 environments where
01:02:57.720 it's been very
01:02:58.300 difficult to
01:02:59.040 actually have
01:03:01.040 any final
01:03:01.720 definitive video
01:03:03.860 or other proof
01:03:05.200 that they still
01:03:05.960 exist.
01:03:06.920 Wow.
01:03:07.960 Fascinating.
01:03:08.820 So there's
01:03:10.520 lots and lots
01:03:11.380 in your DVD
01:03:12.320 but in the
01:03:13.260 series.
01:03:13.600 Now I just
01:03:14.540 wanted to
01:03:14.900 touch on one
01:03:15.500 more thing
01:03:15.920 before we
01:03:16.540 end it off
01:03:17.640 and that is
01:03:18.540 about the
01:03:19.820 major concerns.
01:03:21.100 I mean there's
01:03:21.900 all sorts of
01:03:22.500 concern here
01:03:23.320 but what's the
01:03:24.320 concern for the
01:03:25.500 church?
01:03:27.420 Yes.
01:03:28.400 The
01:03:29.000 Pope who
01:03:31.240 really saw
01:03:32.980 the danger
01:03:34.160 of the
01:03:35.940 that would
01:03:36.520 that was
01:03:37.940 posed
01:03:38.640 by this
01:03:40.760 molecules to
01:03:42.620 man
01:03:42.920 evolution
01:03:43.520 hypothesis
01:03:44.280 very clearly
01:03:45.640 was Pope
01:03:46.240 St.
01:03:46.560 Pius X
01:03:47.160 and in
01:03:48.660 his
01:03:48.960 encyclical
01:03:49.620 Pascendi
01:03:50.160 in 1907
01:03:51.280 he announced
01:03:53.100 that we
01:03:54.580 now had
01:03:55.400 in the
01:03:55.900 church
01:03:56.320 the worst
01:03:57.560 heresy
01:03:58.100 in the
01:03:59.040 history of
01:03:59.560 Christianity
01:04:00.120 modernism
01:04:01.160 but in
01:04:02.400 that same
01:04:02.940 encyclical
01:04:03.500 he says
01:04:04.300 that
01:04:05.120 evolution
01:04:05.800 is as
01:04:06.860 it were
01:04:07.380 the
01:04:08.140 principal
01:04:08.740 doctrine
01:04:09.440 of the
01:04:10.400 modernists.
01:04:11.620 This is
01:04:11.900 very important
01:04:12.560 to understand
01:04:13.440 why is
01:04:14.680 modernism
01:04:15.480 the worst
01:04:16.660 heresy
01:04:17.120 and why is
01:04:18.060 evolution
01:04:18.720 its principal
01:04:20.020 doctrine?
01:04:21.040 If we don't
01:04:21.780 understand this
01:04:22.620 we cannot
01:04:23.160 understand what
01:04:24.200 is going on
01:04:25.080 in the church
01:04:26.120 in the world
01:04:26.600 today.
01:04:27.620 Modernism
01:04:28.320 is the
01:04:29.260 worst
01:04:29.580 heresy
01:04:30.140 because all
01:04:31.560 other
01:04:31.820 heresies
01:04:32.340 in the
01:04:32.700 history
01:04:32.980 of the
01:04:33.300 church
01:04:33.740 added
01:04:34.820 something
01:04:35.420 subtracted
01:04:36.260 something
01:04:36.720 distorted
01:04:37.340 something
01:04:38.060 or a few
01:04:39.200 things
01:04:39.680 but left
01:04:40.540 most of
01:04:41.140 the faith
01:04:41.620 intact.
01:04:43.160 Modernism
01:04:43.740 does not
01:04:44.240 do that.
01:04:45.400 Why?
01:04:46.680 Because
01:04:47.340 since evolution
01:04:48.900 is as
01:04:49.920 Pope St.
01:04:50.420 Pius X
01:04:50.900 said the
01:04:51.740 principal
01:04:52.360 doctrine
01:04:52.940 of the
01:04:53.760 modernists
01:04:54.400 modernism
01:04:55.840 is based
01:04:56.640 on the
01:04:57.580 idea that
01:04:58.240 everything
01:04:58.760 is evolving
01:04:59.620 there are
01:05:00.840 no stable
01:05:01.720 natures
01:05:02.320 everything
01:05:02.940 is in
01:05:03.700 flux
01:05:04.140 and
01:05:05.160 therefore
01:05:05.580 St.
01:05:06.000 Pius X
01:05:06.420 saw that
01:05:07.020 if the
01:05:07.940 modernists
01:05:08.700 gain control
01:05:10.160 they will
01:05:11.280 destroy
01:05:11.940 everything
01:05:12.940 because they're
01:05:14.200 going to
01:05:14.640 say that
01:05:15.200 the liturgy
01:05:16.640 that was
01:05:17.700 good for
01:05:18.380 our
01:05:18.700 forefathers
01:05:19.980 it's no
01:05:21.040 longer
01:05:21.340 adequate for
01:05:22.120 us because
01:05:22.580 we've
01:05:22.940 evolved
01:05:23.620 into a
01:05:24.700 new
01:05:24.880 situation.
01:05:26.340 The
01:05:26.660 marriage
01:05:27.120 law
01:05:27.560 the
01:05:28.820 moral
01:05:30.680 doctrine
01:05:31.260 that
01:05:31.500 was
01:05:31.680 appropriate
01:05:32.260 500
01:05:32.780 years
01:05:33.280 ago
01:05:33.500 it's
01:05:33.720 no
01:05:33.900 longer
01:05:34.220 adequate
01:05:34.600 because
01:05:35.040 we've
01:05:35.380 evolved
01:05:36.000 into a
01:05:37.260 new
01:05:37.460 situation
01:05:38.240 and he
01:05:39.360 saw that
01:05:39.860 with this
01:05:41.420 kind of
01:05:42.240 evolution
01:05:42.860 based
01:05:43.480 modernist
01:05:44.480 thinking
01:05:45.000 nothing
01:05:46.140 would be
01:05:47.280 left
01:05:47.740 intact
01:05:49.000 and this
01:05:50.240 is exactly
01:05:50.920 what we
01:05:51.780 see.
01:05:53.040 What do
01:05:53.620 the people
01:05:54.120 like
01:05:54.420 Father
01:05:54.720 James
01:05:55.200 Martin
01:05:55.700 stand
01:05:57.200 on
01:05:57.600 when they
01:05:58.340 go all
01:05:58.780 over the
01:05:59.180 world
01:05:59.440 telling us
01:06:00.220 that the
01:06:00.960 church has
01:06:01.640 to change
01:06:02.260 her teaching
01:06:02.980 on
01:06:03.960 sodomy.
01:06:05.500 He
01:06:06.100 always
01:06:06.820 bases
01:06:07.880 his
01:06:09.120 talk
01:06:11.220 on the
01:06:12.360 quote unquote
01:06:12.840 fact of
01:06:14.040 evolution
01:06:14.580 that we've
01:06:15.820 evolved
01:06:16.440 and that the
01:06:17.480 church has
01:06:18.020 already had to
01:06:19.120 change her
01:06:19.760 teaching
01:06:20.280 he claims
01:06:21.840 for example
01:06:22.440 on usury
01:06:23.020 which is
01:06:23.460 false
01:06:23.800 the church
01:06:24.280 has never
01:06:24.620 changed
01:06:25.180 her
01:06:26.120 teaching
01:06:26.960 on usury
01:06:27.540 rightly
01:06:27.900 understood
01:06:28.360 it's
01:06:28.680 exactly the
01:06:29.340 same
01:06:29.700 that it
01:06:30.400 was in
01:06:30.860 the middle
01:06:31.180 ages
01:06:31.560 but he's
01:06:32.980 able to
01:06:33.380 get away
01:06:33.980 with
01:06:35.080 promoting
01:06:35.700 this evil
01:06:37.180 because
01:06:38.520 he assumes
01:06:40.040 that everybody
01:06:40.660 accepts without
01:06:41.580 any argument
01:06:42.320 that evolution
01:06:43.420 is a fact
01:06:44.260 everything's
01:06:45.360 evolving
01:06:45.820 and therefore
01:06:47.100 the doctrines
01:06:48.480 of the church
01:06:49.120 have to
01:06:49.740 evolve
01:06:50.560 along with
01:06:51.700 everything else
01:06:52.560 now
01:06:53.360 what is
01:06:54.200 what is
01:06:54.840 the worst
01:06:55.520 effect of
01:06:56.520 this though
01:06:57.080 is
01:06:58.040 is not
01:06:58.820 that
01:06:59.280 the liturgy
01:07:00.620 and catechesis
01:07:02.860 and evangelization
01:07:05.100 are being
01:07:06.320 corrupted
01:07:06.820 as terrible
01:07:08.060 as that is
01:07:08.840 the worst
01:07:10.040 consequence
01:07:10.640 of this
01:07:11.280 is that
01:07:12.400 the character
01:07:13.420 of God
01:07:14.480 is being
01:07:16.460 distorted
01:07:17.720 is being
01:07:18.520 impugned
01:07:19.320 because
01:07:20.300 if
01:07:22.340 it were
01:07:23.460 true
01:07:23.940 that God
01:07:25.580 used
01:07:26.360 a process
01:07:27.680 of hundreds
01:07:28.540 of millions
01:07:29.160 of years
01:07:29.900 of evolution
01:07:30.820 to evolve
01:07:32.360 a one-celled
01:07:33.760 organism
01:07:34.200 into a body
01:07:35.460 suitable
01:07:35.940 to receive
01:07:36.580 a human
01:07:37.020 soul
01:07:37.540 then that
01:07:38.720 would mean
01:07:39.120 that God
01:07:39.940 is the
01:07:40.980 author
01:07:41.480 of hundreds
01:07:42.700 of millions
01:07:43.200 of years
01:07:43.800 of death
01:07:44.480 and deformity
01:07:45.940 and disease
01:07:46.800 and extinctions
01:07:47.760 before
01:07:49.160 before
01:07:49.300 the original
01:07:50.420 sin
01:07:50.820 of Adam
01:07:51.260 and it
01:07:52.360 would also
01:07:52.980 mean
01:07:53.440 that God
01:07:55.020 allowed
01:07:55.580 his church
01:07:56.740 to teach
01:07:58.300 a completely
01:07:59.180 false
01:07:59.920 account
01:08:00.540 of the
01:08:01.600 origins
01:08:02.080 of man
01:08:02.560 and the
01:08:02.800 universe
01:08:03.160 and the
01:08:03.820 early
01:08:04.120 history
01:08:04.560 of mankind
01:08:05.060 for
01:08:06.500 1900
01:08:07.640 years
01:08:08.440 and then
01:08:09.880 enlightened
01:08:10.720 us
01:08:11.320 not by
01:08:12.380 raising up
01:08:13.320 saints and
01:08:14.260 scholars
01:08:14.680 from within
01:08:15.840 the
01:08:16.800 Catholic
01:08:18.220 Church
01:08:18.740 to tell
01:08:19.760 us the
01:08:20.140 truth
01:08:20.520 rather
01:08:21.440 apparently
01:08:22.100 God
01:08:23.200 had to
01:08:23.740 raise up
01:08:24.380 godless
01:08:24.940 people
01:08:25.420 like
01:08:26.280 Charles
01:08:26.720 Lyell
01:08:27.300 and
01:08:27.620 Ernst
01:08:28.040 Haeckel
01:08:28.420 and T.H.
01:08:29.100 Huxley
01:08:29.480 who hated
01:08:30.540 the church
01:08:31.220 and wanted
01:08:32.060 to destroy
01:08:32.760 her
01:08:33.020 and had
01:08:33.980 to use
01:08:34.520 them
01:08:35.060 to
01:08:35.760 enlighten
01:08:36.340 us
01:08:36.900 so that
01:08:37.700 our church
01:08:38.260 leaders
01:08:38.620 could finally
01:08:39.260 understand
01:08:40.040 how God
01:08:41.080 actually
01:08:41.640 created
01:08:42.540 the world
01:08:43.120 well this
01:08:44.520 is this
01:08:45.080 is a
01:08:45.460 blasphemy
01:08:46.160 and and
01:08:47.600 the and
01:08:48.160 the most
01:08:48.620 terrible
01:08:49.160 consequence
01:08:49.820 of this
01:08:50.440 blasphemy
01:08:51.100 is that
01:08:52.640 very few
01:08:54.700 young Catholics
01:08:55.760 are able
01:08:57.080 to understand
01:08:58.420 the character
01:08:59.220 of God
01:08:59.920 correctly
01:09:00.640 and they
01:09:02.360 are leaving
01:09:02.940 the church
01:09:03.700 by the
01:09:04.720 millions
01:09:05.260 because this
01:09:06.880 presentation
01:09:07.480 of the
01:09:08.140 faith
01:09:08.520 is totally
01:09:09.720 incoherent
01:09:10.900 it does
01:09:11.520 not
01:09:11.960 make
01:09:12.420 any
01:09:12.780 sense
01:09:13.160 what
01:09:13.900 young
01:09:14.240 person
01:09:14.700 in his
01:09:15.100 right
01:09:15.460 mind
01:09:16.020 would
01:09:17.180 stay
01:09:17.660 in the
01:09:18.100 Catholic
01:09:18.500 Church
01:09:19.140 if the
01:09:20.560 Catholic
01:09:20.940 Church
01:09:21.460 taught
01:09:22.300 an account
01:09:23.020 of the
01:09:23.480 origins
01:09:23.820 of man
01:09:24.200 in the
01:09:24.420 universe
01:09:24.800 for 1900
01:09:26.460 years
01:09:27.120 at a
01:09:27.460 very high
01:09:28.000 level
01:09:28.260 of authority
01:09:28.840 which turns
01:09:30.160 out to be
01:09:30.740 completely
01:09:31.240 wrong
01:09:31.820 and the
01:09:32.600 ones who
01:09:33.040 actually
01:09:33.520 enlightened
01:09:34.020 the church
01:09:34.680 are the
01:09:35.380 godless
01:09:35.840 scientists
01:09:36.480 the young
01:09:37.380 people aren't
01:09:37.980 stupid
01:09:38.440 they're going
01:09:39.380 to figure
01:09:39.740 well then
01:09:40.180 it's the
01:09:40.980 godless
01:09:41.420 scientists
01:09:41.900 who know
01:09:42.400 what they're
01:09:42.740 talking about
01:09:43.560 so why not
01:09:44.980 just follow
01:09:46.020 them because
01:09:46.720 then you can
01:09:47.640 do whatever
01:09:48.120 you please
01:09:48.800 because you're
01:09:49.380 not accountable
01:09:50.500 to anybody
01:09:51.260 and you don't
01:09:51.900 need to be
01:09:52.940 concerned about
01:09:53.780 following any
01:09:54.580 of these
01:09:54.980 burdensome
01:09:56.120 rules and
01:09:57.220 teachings of
01:09:57.840 the Catholic
01:09:58.340 Church
01:09:58.820 the good
01:10:00.100 news is
01:10:00.840 we have
01:10:02.300 found
01:10:02.820 that wherever
01:10:04.680 young people
01:10:05.820 are given
01:10:07.100 a good
01:10:08.280 defense
01:10:08.900 of the
01:10:10.060 traditional
01:10:10.580 Catholic
01:10:11.160 doctrine
01:10:11.600 of
01:10:11.780 creation
01:10:12.180 and are
01:10:12.980 shown
01:10:13.480 that
01:10:14.140 sound
01:10:14.780 philosophy
01:10:15.820 and sound
01:10:16.480 natural
01:10:16.900 science
01:10:17.380 confirm
01:10:18.040 what the
01:10:19.280 church has
01:10:19.780 always taught
01:10:20.540 on creation
01:10:21.440 and the
01:10:21.820 early history
01:10:22.380 of the
01:10:22.640 world
01:10:22.920 those young
01:10:23.980 people
01:10:24.440 grow up
01:10:25.440 with a
01:10:26.420 strong
01:10:26.800 faith
01:10:27.340 they don't
01:10:28.560 succumb
01:10:29.140 to the
01:10:30.180 temptations
01:10:31.360 and pressures
01:10:32.460 of the
01:10:32.840 anti-culture
01:10:33.520 of death
01:10:34.000 and they
01:10:34.260 become
01:10:34.720 strong
01:10:35.680 leaders
01:10:36.100 strong
01:10:36.560 pro-life
01:10:37.160 leaders
01:10:37.500 as priests
01:10:38.840 as religious
01:10:39.460 as leaders
01:10:41.840 of holy
01:10:43.080 Catholic
01:10:43.500 families
01:10:44.000 so the
01:10:44.880 reality is
01:10:45.660 with your
01:10:47.200 help we can
01:10:47.980 turn things
01:10:48.680 around very
01:10:49.420 quickly
01:10:49.900 right now
01:10:51.580 in Africa
01:10:52.220 we have
01:10:53.400 bishops
01:10:53.920 who want us
01:10:55.280 to come
01:10:55.860 and present
01:10:57.160 this truth
01:10:57.840 to entire
01:10:58.700 dioceses
01:10:59.460 because they
01:11:00.880 see what has
01:11:01.620 happened to
01:11:02.760 the young
01:11:03.180 people in
01:11:04.300 the western
01:11:04.760 world and
01:11:05.360 they don't
01:11:05.860 want the
01:11:06.360 same thing
01:11:06.900 to happen
01:11:07.360 to their
01:11:07.800 youth
01:11:08.200 so they
01:11:09.460 are inviting
01:11:10.240 us to
01:11:10.680 come and
01:11:11.880 train all
01:11:12.820 of their
01:11:13.120 teachers so
01:11:14.640 that their
01:11:15.160 young people
01:11:15.940 can be given
01:11:17.520 the truth
01:11:18.140 and can
01:11:19.260 understand that
01:11:20.080 sound theology
01:11:20.980 sound philosophy
01:11:22.100 and sound
01:11:22.680 natural science
01:11:23.580 confirm the
01:11:25.700 truth of the
01:11:26.840 sacred history
01:11:27.520 of Genesis
01:11:28.020 and the
01:11:29.340 traditional
01:11:29.800 doctrine of
01:11:30.400 creation that
01:11:31.040 is the
01:11:31.480 foundation of
01:11:33.100 our holy
01:11:33.700 Catholic faith
01:11:34.640 absolutely
01:11:36.320 well that is
