Whale Evolution

Here's a nice illustration of the evidence behind our understanding of the evolution of whales, all in 7 minutes. This is absolutely facinating. Unless of course you're one of the 53% of Americans who believe that the Earth is less than 10,000 years old.

.5/5 for the ignorant description.

People do believe in God you know and believe that the world is billions of years old.


Thanks for proving your nothing but a child with a chip on your shoulder.

Euthphyro, for someone who`s (indirectly) claiming maturity, you`re not really helping your case (some sort of vendetta), with all those aggressive posting on nearly every damn recently posted science-aligned video found in here.

If the OP has a chip, then you`re stuck with a mammoth the size of bagdad (wich you`re probably trying hard to ignore). Please, this is neither constructive or thought-provoking of you - no matter what your is opinion on this peculiar subject.

But more to the point of this video: nice post. 4/5.

The part about the nostrils was a very astute observation. Interesting findings in this vid

Learn what big words mean before you try to use them child.

I dont have a vendetta nor do I feel one is out to get me, more so none of my comments would even entertain such a idea.

Ironically it is you, and the liberals like you who seem to have this "vendetta" that big brother and the big media is out to squash your "revolutionary ideals."

Again, fucking children need to keep their mouth shut unless you know what the hell your talking about, ignorant fool.

^^ again Euthphryo, learn the big words

it`s not ironic, that`s coincidence since the topics aren`t related. Irony is different

what`s ironic is that last sentence of yours contradicts the very character you`re trying to portray

Interesting video, the spinal movement was also a good point. 5/5

@Euthphyro - Your attitude and beliefs are ironically stupid, especially coming from someone who holds themself so highly.

"Frank Fish". Pretty funny he studies marineanimals and has that kind of name.

On topic, truly an interesting video.
Are you sure about what your title says though (53%)? If so that scares me...
