i want to make a channel devoted to educate on the weird and wonderful creatures in nature

the show will called "wonderfully weird nature"

the reason for making this channel has two parts
1.) im studying to be a biology teacher and i want to be able to refer my future students to this channel for additional information
2.) i want to educate the general public in a fun way in the hopes that my video`s will contribute in some way to the general understanding of the natural world and in turn help in making a better educated society
 
what is in my mind is quite complicated to actually type out so if you are interested we could set up a skype call to discuss the details
 
i will focus mainly on biology

and some specials on evolution because in that area there are some serious misconceptions

and i can only hope to be as awesome as him
 
Never heard of that O.O sounds kind of epic. The Gap theory is kind of a mesh of Evolution and Christianity saying there are gaps between the Christians traditional 7 days as in the millions of years Evolution accounts for.
 
well no evolution is pretty much rock solid

evolution from one species to an other has been observed documented and tested countless times
and with the completion of the genome project the data pilled on even more by looking at the mitochondrial DNA (that is the DNA that is passed on through the female of the species ) we could trace the origins back as far as 10 million years with remarkable accuracy after a certain point it gets increasingly difficult because the trace mitochondrial DNA gets lower and lower in number because of specification and genetic mutation

the 7 day account is pretty much been disproved by means of nuclear dating of the earth samples

what i found by debating creationists is that there basic understanding of evolution does not even meet grade school standards in most cases and that is the part that frustrates me

if one wants to debate a certain position one must know what that position is otherwise debating it would be futile.

there are quite a few examples of the level of ignorance ( don`t take it as a insult its a mere observation of there understanding of the subject )

a argument that keeps popping up is the argument of evolution is a single generation they state that if evolution were to be true you should see animals giving birth to new species creationists quote " a dog gives birth to a dog if evolution were to be true you should see a dog giving birth to a non dog"

and that claim is factually false because evolution does not occur in a single generation in a single parentage if that were to happen we would have to re write the entire biology text book from the ground up

it is not a individual that evolves but a population over countless generation through either artificial selection like in wolves that were bred into dogs
or natural selection where the animals best adapted to there surroundings survive and procreate

i could go on and on about this and sight thousand of discovery's to back my claims but then you might get bored :p
 
I don't take being called ignorant as an offensive thing as most do, the word itself just means I don't know. Which in reality I don't know a ton about evolution but enough I know I don't line 100% with it, I was asking about the Gap theory because to me it is a melding of the two worlds Creationism and Evolution. Just curious if you had heard of it. :p Thanks for the information, I look forward to your channel and videos on Biology.
