Blind Watchmaker

The world has long been raging disputes between supporters of creationism and Darwinism. This video of the English scientist is a counter-argument to the creationist argument - that complex life forms could not arise from simple ones, just as clocks cannot be created by randomly mixing their parts.



But the scientist showed us that even if we simulate the process of mixing parts of broken clocks, sooner or later we will get whole, working hours! In addition, life is not only probability theory, and in the course of development many processes influenced living beings. And the most important difference between living beings and letters and numbers is that they are alive ...



So, the simulation of evolution on the example of hours! We look!
