the why is more important

do you think ur smarter than neil degrasse tyson?
I don't think you understand NDT as much as you claim to or have watched him over the years.

The "why" doesn't make sense to ask because lesser minds always will shift that why to another set of specious questions.

And the "why" is NOT more important because you have nothing else to even compare it to to say its "more important"

its a ridiculous statement.

Well since you read it already, you should have no problem with my concern. If all "nows" exist simultaneously then evolutionary theory falls apart. Natural selection, reproduction, the passing on of genes, they all require nows to exist at different "times"

Why are you being so fukking dense??????

EVENTS OCCUR. Time is not some tangible quantity, its a MEASUREMENT.

They don't require "nows" they're merely events we place in order to get a concept of order and consistency.

Evolution does NOT fall apart because of that. WTF are you saying?

Did your parents NOT pass genes on to you?????????????/

You really should read that article I posted. I don't think you are understanding what I'm saying one bit. Evolution requires an order, but there is no order.

NDT is an atheist. he just doesnt like to get political because hes a science communicator.

Listen to his speeches and words over the last 15 years.

hell, even watch the cosmos.

The guy is NOT "agnostic" in the sense that he doesn't know.

Agnosticism is what you KNOW. I'm an agnostic.

Atheism is what you beleive. I'm an atheist because Idon't believe any of the claims. Theres no evididence to support them

NDT is an agnostic-atheist, as am I.

Did your grand parents give genes to your parents and then to you?
:dead: you are completely side-stepping the no time argument (I doubt you actually read anything on this).

If you believe in the passage of events in a particular order (see I was careful to not call it "time" there), then yes, genes do get passed on through each generation. But that is not what we are talking about right now and you know that :comeon:.

If all "nows" exist simultaneously and there is no order to these "nows" then no, no genes were passed on. This is the possibility I am TRYING to discuss with you.

And what causes these cells to stay alive?

Because cells have functions and organs of their own that keep them alive. They have dna replication and protein synthesis that allows them to reproduce.

Look, I see where you're going with this. However there is no way you can tie this to Islam or any invisible mega cac in the sky either.

Evolution works because its the passing of material between generations. Time existing or not has nothing to do with this.

Yes, but do you see that the word "passing" and the notion of "generations" requires different "nows" to be connected? If they are not connected, then evolution doesn't have a mechanism to work with.
