video about James. I was discussing the
 

209
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,310

idiotic way that creationists throw

idiotic way that creationists throw
 

211
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,750

around big numbers for shock value, such
 

213
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,470
around big numbers for shock value, such
as the probability of a particular

00:03:45,470 --> 00:03:45,480
as the probability of a particular
 

215
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,430
as the probability of a particular
sequence of amino acids arising by

sequence of amino acids arising by
 

217
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,630
sequence of amino acids arising by
chance. For example, given a particular

218
00:03:49,630 --> 00:03:49,640
chance. For example, given a particular
 

219
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,990
chance. For example, given a particular
protein with 100 amino acid residues,

220
00:03:51,990 --> 00:03:52,000
protein with 100 amino acid residues,
 

221
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,630
protein with 100 amino acid residues,
the odds of that specific sequence

222
00:03:53,630 --> 00:03:53,640
the odds of that specific sequence
 

223
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,470
the odds of that specific sequence
arising would be one in 20 to the 100,

224
00:03:56,470 --> 00:03:56,480
arising would be one in 20 to the 100,
 

225
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,630
arising would be one in 20 to the 100,
which is a huge number. In comparison, I

226
00:03:58,630 --> 00:03:58,640
which is a huge number. In comparison, I
 

227
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,430

00:13:55,870 --> 00:13:55,880
different from his own. So, he
 

811
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,470
different from his own. So, he
immediately fails in his attempt at

812
00:13:57,470 --> 00:13:57,480
immediately fails in his attempt at
 

813
00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,350
immediately fails in his attempt at
pretending that legitimate science

814
00:13:59,350 --> 00:13:59,360
pretending that legitimate science
 

815
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,430
pretending that legitimate science
somehow endorses his deceptive language

816
00:14:01,430 --> 00:14:01,440
somehow endorses his deceptive language
 

817
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,550
somehow endorses his deceptive language
and bogus arguments. He's pointing at

818
00:14:03,550 --> 00:14:03,560
and bogus arguments. He's pointing at
 

819
00:14:03,560 --> 00:14:05,070
and bogus arguments. He's pointing at
words and aura farming to do

820
00:14:05,070 --> 00:14:05,080
words and aura farming to do
 

821
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,190
words and aura farming to do
apologetics, nothing more. Then we get

822
00:14:07,190 --> 00:14:07,200
apologetics, nothing more. Then we get
 

823
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,070
apologetics, nothing more. Then we get
to the toddler examples that he hopes

824
00:14:09,070 --> 00:14:09,080
to the toddler examples that he hopes
 

825
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,990
to the toddler examples that he hopes
will bring an uneducated reader to his

826
00:14:10,990 --> 00:14:11,000
will bring an uneducated reader to his
 

827
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,950
will bring an uneducated reader to his
side. We can hear Dembski explain this

828
00:14:12,950 --> 00:14:12,960
side. We can hear Dembski explain this
 

829
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,430
side. We can hear Dembski explain this
stuff in person as well. So, the

830
00:14:14,430 --> 00:14:14,440
stuff in person as well. So, the
 

831
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,550
stuff in person as well. So, the
complexity there is improbability, and

832
00:14:17,550 --> 00:14:17,560
complexity there is improbability, and
 

833
00:14:17,560 --> 00:14:19,990
complexity there is improbability, and
we can think of that as

834
00:14:19,990 --> 00:14:20,000
we can think of that as
 

835
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,990
we can think of that as
uh if I flip a coin 100 times,

836
00:14:22,990 --> 00:14:23,000
uh if I flip a coin 100 times,
 

837
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,750
uh if I flip a coin 100 times,
uh the the improbability of that or the

838
00:14:24,750 --> 00:14:24,760
uh the the improbability of that or the
 

839
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,950
uh the the improbability of that or the
probability is 1 over 2 to the 100. You

840
00:14:27,950 --> 00:14:27,960
probability is 1 over 2 to the 100. You
 

841
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,870
probability is 1 over 2 to the 100. You
keep the the probabilities multiply

842
00:14:29,870 --> 00:14:29,880
keep the the probabilities multiply
 

843
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,150
keep the the probabilities multiply
because coin flipping the individual

844
00:14:32,150 --> 00:14:32,160
because coin flipping the individual
 

845
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,350
because coin flipping the individual
flips are independent of each other.

846
00:14:35,350 --> 00:14:35,360
flips are independent of each other.
 

847
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:36,910
flips are independent of each other.
So, the thing is

848
00:14:36,910 --> 00:14:36,920
So, the thing is
 

849
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:41,070
So, the thing is
that's 1 over 2 to the 100, that's about

850
00:14:41,070 --> 00:14:41,080
that's 1 over 2 to the 100, that's about
 

851
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,510
that's 1 over 2 to the 100, that's about
1 in 10 to the 30. Um you know, so very

852
00:14:44,510 --> 00:14:44,520
1 in 10 to the 30. Um you know, so very
 

853
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,990
1 in 10 to the 30. Um you know, so very
small number, 1 in a trillion trillion

854
00:14:48,990 --> 00:14:49,000
small number, 1 in a trillion trillion
 

855
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,030
small number, 1 in a trillion trillion
million, okay?

856
00:14:51,030 --> 00:14:51,040
million, okay?
 

857
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,950
million, okay?
Uh but you can also

858
00:14:54,950 --> 00:14:54,960
Uh but you can also
 

859
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:55,710
Uh but you can also
uh

860
00:14:55,710 --> 00:14:55,720
uh
 

861
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,550
uh
think of it in terms of bits. How many

862
00:14:58,550 --> 00:14:58,560
think of it in terms of bits. How many
 

863
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,790
think of it in terms of bits. How many
bits does it take to characterize that

864
00:15:00,790 --> 00:15:00,800
bits does it take to characterize that
 

865
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,310
bits does it take to characterize that
sequence of coin tosses? It could be

866
00:15:02,310 --> 00:15:02,320
sequence of coin tosses? It could be
 

867
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,110
sequence of coin tosses? It could be
head, tails, head, tails, you know, and

868
00:15:04,110 --> 00:15:04,120
head, tails, head, tails, you know, and
 

869
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,510
head, tails, head, tails, you know, and
and so on. And so, if you let head be

870
00:15:06,510 --> 00:15:06,520
and so on. And so, if you let head be
 

871
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,550
and so on. And so, if you let head be
one, tails be zero, then you can get a

872
00:15:09,550 --> 00:15:09,560
one, tails be zero, then you can get a
 

873
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,550
one, tails be zero, then you can get a
sequence of length 100 that will carry

874
00:15:12,550 --> 00:15:12,560
sequence of length 100 that will carry
 

875
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,950
sequence of length 100 that will carry
that will precisely identify this the

876
00:15:15,950 --> 00:15:15,960
that will precisely identify this the
 

877
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,870
that will precisely identify this the
the the coin tosses. So, probabilities

878
00:15:19,870 --> 00:15:19,880
the the coin tosses. So, probabilities
 

879
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,630
the the coin tosses. So, probabilities
and number of bits are directly related.

880
00:15:23,630 --> 00:15:23,640
and number of bits are directly related.
 

881
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,830
and number of bits are directly related.
So, one in two to the 100 probability it

882
00:15:26,830 --> 00:15:26,840
So, one in two to the 100 probability it
 

883
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,390
So, one in two to the 100 probability it
corresponds to 100 bits of information.

884
00:15:29,390 --> 00:15:29,400
corresponds to 100 bits of information.
 

885
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,630
corresponds to 100 bits of information.
Okay, so we've got the crazy probability

886
00:15:31,630 --> 00:15:31,640
Okay, so we've got the crazy probability
 

887
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,430
Okay, so we've got the crazy probability
numbers and we're defining bits of

888
00:15:33,430 --> 00:15:33,440
numbers and we're defining bits of
 

889
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,550
numbers and we're defining bits of
information. Now, back to the blog post

890
00:15:35,550 --> 00:15:35,560
information. Now, back to the blog post
 

891
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:36,950

where he applies this to letters and
 

893
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,310
where he applies this to letters and
words. Okay, we've got boat repeated a

00:15:39,310 --> 00:15:39,320

895

which is like a random sequence of

which is like a random sequence of

then a meaningful English sentence which

904
00:15:49,790 --> 00:15:49,800
then a meaningful English sentence which
 

905
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,190
then a meaningful English sentence which

all the birthdays were something

Shannon information is about

Shannon information is about

Shannon information is about
probability. The less likely an event

1230
00:21:15,990 --> 00:21:16,000
probability. The less likely an event
 

1231
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,990
probability. The less likely an event
is, the more information it carries. So,

1232
00:21:17,990 --> 00:21:18,000
is, the more information it carries. So,
 

1233
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,030

if I tell you the sun rose this morning,

you can describe it very briefly by
saying it's just eight A's. But, a

1263
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,870
string like Q7L9X2MP
looks much more random. So, the shortest

1265
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,830
looks much more random. So, the shortest
description is the string itself, which

1266

description is the string itself, which
 

1267
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,270
description is the string itself, which
means it has higher Kolmogorov

1268
00:21:55,270 --> 00:21:55,280
means it has higher Kolmogorov
 

1269
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,470
means it has higher Kolmogorov
complexity. Shannon information comes

So n equals 10 to the 12. The chance

So n equals 10 to the 12. The chance

So n equals 10 to the 12. The chance

That's approximately one minus e to the

That's approximately one minus e to the

That's approximately one minus e to the

00:27:55,830 --> 00:27:55,840
negative 1,000. This is so close to one
 

1615

Demski's math is off by a factor of 10

Demski's math is off by a factor of 10

Let's expand on that so that we can see

Let's expand on that so that we can see

Let's expand on that so that we can see

genuinely sucks at math. The core claim

1796
00:31:01,390 --> 00:31:01,400
genuinely sucks at math. The core claim
 

1797
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:02,670
genuinely sucks at math. The core claim
here is that once you correct the

1798
00:31:02,670 --> 00:31:02,680
here is that once you correct the
 

1799
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,630
here is that once you correct the
formula, it no longer does what Demski

1800
00:31:04,630 --> 00:31:04,640
formula, it no longer does what Demski
 

1801
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,470
formula, it no longer does what Demski
wants it to do. The paper starts by

1802
00:31:06,470 --> 00:31:06,480
wants it to do. The paper starts by
 

1803
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:07,950
wants it to do. The paper starts by
laying out Demski's setup in

1804
00:31:07,950 --> 00:31:07,960
laying out Demski's setup in
 

1805
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:09,910
laying out Demski's setup in
stripped-down form. First, Demski

1806
00:31:09,910 --> 00:31:09,920
stripped-down form. First, Demski
 

1807
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,190
stripped-down form. First, Demski
defines a chance hypothesis, basically a

1808
00:31:12,190 --> 00:31:12,200
defines a chance hypothesis, basically a
 

1809
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:13,750
defines a chance hypothesis, basically a
model under which the event happened

1810
00:31:13,750 --> 00:31:13,760
model under which the event happened
 

1811
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,910
model under which the event happened
randomly. Landman immediately notes a

1812
00:31:15,910 --> 00:31:15,920
randomly. Landman immediately notes a
 

1813
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:17,790
randomly. Landman immediately notes a
problem here, which is that Demski is

1814
00:31:17,790 --> 00:31:17,800
problem here, which is that Demski is
 

1815
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,990
problem here, which is that Demski is
vague about exactly what this means, and

1816
00:31:19,990 --> 00:31:20,000
vague about exactly what this means, and
 

1817
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,590
vague about exactly what this means, and
that vagueness matters because

1818
00:31:21,590 --> 00:31:21,600
that vagueness matters because
 

1819
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,790
that vagueness matters because
biological evolution is not just chance.

1820
00:31:23,790 --> 00:31:23,800
biological evolution is not just chance.
 

1821
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,950
biological evolution is not just chance.
It also includes non-chance components

1822
00:31:25,950 --> 00:31:25,960
It also includes non-chance components
 

1823
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,790
It also includes non-chance components
like selection, even for molecular

1824
00:31:27,790 --> 00:31:27,800
like selection, even for molecular
 

1825
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,990
like selection, even for molecular
evolution. So right away, Landman is

1826
00:31:29,990 --> 00:31:30,000
evolution. So right away, Landman is
 

1827
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,990
evolution. So right away, Landman is
already hinting that Demski's framework

1828
00:31:31,990 --> 00:31:32,000
already hinting that Demski's framework
 

1829
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,990
already hinting that Demski's framework
may not even cleanly apply to evolution

1830
00:31:33,990 --> 00:31:34,000
may not even cleanly apply to evolution
 

1831
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:35,670
may not even cleanly apply to evolution
in the first place. He states that

1832
00:31:35,670 --> 00:31:35,680
in the first place. He states that
 

1833
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,550
in the first place. He states that
Demski assigns a probability to some

1834
00:31:37,550 --> 00:31:37,560
Demski assigns a probability to some
 

1835
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,270
Demski assigns a probability to some
target pattern T. So far, fine. Then he

1836
00:31:40,270 --> 00:31:40,280
target pattern T. So far, fine. Then he
 

1837
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,790
target pattern T. So far, fine. Then he
adds this extra term phi sub S of T,

1838
00:31:42,790 --> 00:31:42,800
adds this extra term phi sub S of T,
 

1839
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:44,270
adds this extra term phi sub S of T,
which is supposed to count how many

1840
00:31:44,270 --> 00:31:44,280
which is supposed to count how many
 

1841
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:45,710
which is supposed to count how many
patterns are at least as simply

1842
00:31:45,710 --> 00:31:45,720
patterns are at least as simply
 

1843
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,710
patterns are at least as simply
describable as the target pattern. In

1844
00:31:47,710 --> 00:31:47,720
describable as the target pattern. In
 

1845
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,470
describable as the target pattern. In
plain English, he is trying to account

1846
00:31:49,470 --> 00:31:49,480
plain English, he is trying to account
 

1847
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:50,710
plain English, he is trying to account
for the fact that there are many

1848
00:31:50,710 --> 00:31:50,720
for the fact that there are many
 

1849
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:52,470
for the fact that there are many
patterns an observer might notice, not

1850
00:31:52,470 --> 00:31:52,480
patterns an observer might notice, not
 

1851
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,670
patterns an observer might notice, not
just one. Then Landman explains how the

1852
00:31:54,670 --> 00:31:54,680
just one. Then Landman explains how the
 

1853
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,510
just one. Then Landman explains how the
derivation already breaks. Demski

1854
00:31:56,510 --> 00:31:56,520
derivation already breaks. Demski
 

1855
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,350
derivation already breaks. Demski
multiplies these things together and

1856
00:31:58,350 --> 00:31:58,360
multiplies these things together and
 

1857
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,070
multiplies these things together and
treats that as an upper bound on the

1858
00:32:00,070 --> 00:32:00,080
treats that as an upper bound on the
 

1859
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,670
treats that as an upper bound on the
probability of getting some equally

1860
00:32:01,670 --> 00:32:01,680
probability of getting some equally
 

1861
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,070
probability of getting some equally
simple pattern. But Landman points out

1862
00:32:04,070 --> 00:32:04,080
simple pattern. But Landman points out
 

1863
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:05,430
simple pattern. But Landman points out
that simpler patterns are not

1864
00:32:05,430 --> 00:32:05,440
that simpler patterns are not
 

1865
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,790
that simpler patterns are not
necessarily less probable. His example

1866
00:32:07,790 --> 00:32:07,800
necessarily less probable. His example
 

1867
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,950
necessarily less probable. His example
is nice and concrete. If your target is

1868
00:32:09,950 --> 00:32:09,960
is nice and concrete. If your target is
 

1869
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,150
is nice and concrete. If your target is
a very specific 10-digit string, the

1870
00:32:12,150 --> 00:32:12,160
a very specific 10-digit string, the
 

1871
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,430
a very specific 10-digit string, the
probability is 1 in 10 billion, but a

1872
00:32:14,430 --> 00:32:14,440
probability is 1 in 10 billion, but a
 

1873
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,470
probability is 1 in 10 billion, but a
simpler pattern like contains the digit

1874
00:32:16,470 --> 00:32:16,480
simpler pattern like contains the digit
 

1875
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,670
simpler pattern like contains the digit
one is vastly more probable, around

1876
00:32:18,670 --> 00:32:18,680
one is vastly more probable, around
 

1877
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,950
one is vastly more probable, around
0.35. So Demski's move from simplicity

1878
00:32:21,950 --> 00:32:21,960
0.35. So Demski's move from simplicity
 

1879
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,990
0.35. So Demski's move from simplicity
to probability just does not hold.

1880
00:32:23,990 --> 00:32:24,000
to probability just does not hold.
 

1881
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:25,830
to probability just does not hold.
That's the first error. Landman then

1882
00:32:25,830 --> 00:32:25,840
That's the first error. Landman then
 

1883
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,390
That's the first error. Landman then
says this first problem is at least

1884
00:32:27,390 --> 00:32:27,400
says this first problem is at least
 

1885
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,310
says this first problem is at least
fixable. You could redefine the pattern

1886
00:32:29,310 --> 00:32:29,320
fixable. You could redefine the pattern
 

1887
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,110
fixable. You could redefine the pattern
counting term so that it only counts

1888
00:32:31,110 --> 00:32:31,120
counting term so that it only counts
 

1889
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,550
counting term so that it only counts
patterns that are both at least as

1890
00:32:32,550 --> 00:32:32,560
patterns that are both at least as
 

1891
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,390
patterns that are both at least as
simple and at least improbable as the

1892
00:32:34,390 --> 00:32:34,400
simple and at least improbable as the
 

1893
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,550
simple and at least improbable as the
target. With that repair, the derivation

1894
00:32:36,550 --> 00:32:36,560
target. With that repair, the derivation
 

1895
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,190
target. With that repair, the derivation
can continue. So he's being pretty

1896
00:32:38,190 --> 00:32:38,200
can continue. So he's being pretty
 

1897
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,910
can continue. So he's being pretty
charitable there. But, then comes the

1898
00:32:39,910 --> 00:32:39,920
charitable there. But, then comes the
 

1899
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:41,710
charitable there. But, then comes the
much bigger problem. Dembski later

1900
00:32:41,710 --> 00:32:41,720
much bigger problem. Dembski later
 

1901
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:43,630
much bigger problem. Dembski later
brings in Seth Lloyd's estimate for the

1902
00:32:43,630 --> 00:32:43,640
brings in Seth Lloyd's estimate for the
 

1903
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,550
brings in Seth Lloyd's estimate for the
computational capacity of the observable

1904
00:32:45,550 --> 00:32:45,560
computational capacity of the observable
 

1905
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,870
computational capacity of the observable
universe, this famous 10 to the 120

1906
00:32:47,870 --> 00:32:47,880

1907
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:49,950

number, and plugs it into the formula as

1908
00:32:49,950 --> 00:32:49,960
number, and plugs it into the formula as
 

1909
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,950

a universal upper bound on opportunities

1910
00:32:51,950 --> 00:32:51,960
a universal upper bound on opportunities
 

1911
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,390
a universal upper bound on opportunities
or resources. Landman says this is where

1912
00:32:54,390 --> 00:32:54,400
or resources. Landman says this is where
 

1913
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,350
or resources. Landman says this is where
Dembski makes the truly catastrophic

1914
00:32:56,350 --> 00:32:56,360
Dembski makes the truly catastrophic
 

1915
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,430
Dembski makes the truly catastrophic
mistake. Lloyd's numbers are already

1916
00:32:58,430 --> 00:32:58,440
mistake. Lloyd's numbers are already
 

1917
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,310
mistake. Lloyd's numbers are already
logarithmic measures, meaning they

1918
00:33:00,310 --> 00:33:00,320
logarithmic measures, meaning they
 

1919
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:01,990
logarithmic measures, meaning they
already summarize the size of a

1920
00:33:01,990 --> 00:33:02,000
already summarize the size of a
 

1921
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,670
already summarize the size of a
possibility space in bits. Dembski then

1922
00:33:04,670 --> 00:33:04,680
possibility space in bits. Dembski then
 

1923
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,630
possibility space in bits. Dembski then
effectively takes the logarithm again

1924
00:33:06,630 --> 00:33:06,640
effectively takes the logarithm again
 

1925
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:08,790
effectively takes the logarithm again
when he should not. Dembski drops two

1926
00:33:08,790 --> 00:33:08,800
when he should not. Dembski drops two
 

1927
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,270
when he should not. Dembski drops two
logs instead of one, just like every DI

1928
00:33:11,270 --> 00:33:11,280
logs instead of one, just like every DI
 

1929
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:12,790
logs instead of one, just like every DI

you fix this toddler mistake, the
intended conclusion is obliterated.

1936
00:33:18,710 --> 00:33:18,720

According to Landman, the corrected

According to Landman, the corrected
formula becomes useless for Dembski's

00:33:22,350 --> 00:33:22,360
formula becomes useless for Dembski's
 

1941
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,150

logarithmic transform. It's a logarithm
 

1967
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,470
logarithmic transform. It's a logarithm
to the base two, which basically

Landman goes on to deconstruct this

1978
00:33:59,070 --> 00:33:59,080
Landman goes on to deconstruct this
 

1979
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,150
Landman goes on to deconstruct this
conclusion in two different ways. First

1980
00:34:01,150 --> 00:34:01,160
conclusion in two different ways. First
 

1981
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,190
conclusion in two different ways. First
is the information theory argument. If

1982
00:34:03,190 --> 00:34:03,200
is the information theory argument. If
 

1983
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,070
is the information theory argument. If
you are considering Shannon information,

1984
00:34:05,070 --> 00:34:05,080
you are considering Shannon information,
 

1985
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,310
you are considering Shannon information,
you take the log of the number of

1986
00:34:06,310 --> 00:34:06,320
you take the log of the number of
 

1987
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,030
you take the log of the number of
possibilities. But again, Lloyd's

1988
00:34:08,030 --> 00:34:08,040
possibilities. But again, Lloyd's
 

1989
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:09,550
possibilities. But again, Lloyd's
numbers are already logs of the

1990
00:34:09,550 --> 00:34:09,560
numbers are already logs of the
 

1991
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,389
numbers are already logs of the
underlying possibilities. So, plugging

1992
00:34:11,389 --> 00:34:11,399
underlying possibilities. So, plugging
 

1993
00:34:11,399 --> 00:34:13,230
underlying possibilities. So, plugging
them directly into another logarithm is

1994
00:34:13,230 --> 00:34:13,240
them directly into another logarithm is
 

1995
00:34:13,240 --> 00:34:15,310
them directly into another logarithm is
just mathematically wrong. And second is

1996
00:34:15,310 --> 00:34:15,320
just mathematically wrong. And second is
 

1997
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,190
just mathematically wrong. And second is
the dimensional analysis argument. This

1998
00:34:17,190 --> 00:34:17,200
the dimensional analysis argument. This
 

1999
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:18,950
the dimensional analysis argument. This
is the units argument. You can't take

2000
00:34:18,950 --> 00:34:18,960
is the units argument. You can't take
 

2001
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,270
is the units argument. You can't take
the log of something with units

2002
00:34:20,270 --> 00:34:20,280
the log of something with units
 

2003
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,510
the log of something with units
attached, like bit operations, any more

2004
00:34:22,510 --> 00:34:22,520
attached, like bit operations, any more
 

2005
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,590
attached, like bit operations, any more
than you can sensibly take the log of 88

2006
00:34:24,590 --> 00:34:24,600
than you can sensibly take the log of 88
 

2007
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,149
than you can sensibly take the log of 88
feet, because the log of feet doesn't

2008
00:34:27,149 --> 00:34:27,159
feet, because the log of feet doesn't
 

2009
00:34:27,159 --> 00:34:28,830
feet, because the log of feet doesn't
mean anything. The thing inside the

2010
00:34:28,830 --> 00:34:28,840
mean anything. The thing inside the
 

2011
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,110
mean anything. The thing inside the
logarithm has to be dimensionless. So,

2012
00:34:31,110 --> 00:34:31,120
logarithm has to be dimensionless. So,
 

2013
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,430
logarithm has to be dimensionless. So,
Landman says Dembski's formula violates

2014
00:34:33,430 --> 00:34:33,440
Landman says Dembski's formula violates
 

2015
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,230
Landman says Dembski's formula violates
that, too. So, the simple version of

2016
00:34:35,230 --> 00:34:35,240
that, too. So, the simple version of
 

2017
00:34:35,240 --> 00:34:37,669
that, too. So, the simple version of
this paper is, even if you temporarily

this paper is, even if you temporarily

this paper is, even if you temporarily
set aside all the philosophical and

set aside all the philosophical and

set aside all the philosophical and
biological objections to Dembski's

formula still fails on basic
 

2027
00:34:45,720 --> 00:34:47,710
formula still fails on basic
mathematical grounds. First, the

mathematical grounds. First, the
 

2029
00:34:47,720 --> 00:34:49,629
mathematical grounds. First, the
probability bound does not follow from

00:34:49,629 --> 00:34:49,639
probability bound does not follow from
 

2031
00:34:49,639 --> 00:34:51,110
probability bound does not follow from
the way Dembski defines pattern

the way Dembski defines pattern

resource bound is plugged in incorrectly

00:34:55,110 --> 00:34:55,120
resource bound is plugged in incorrectly
 

2037
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,150
resource bound is plugged in incorrectly
by a gigantic margin. And once

corrected, the formula no longer

conclusions Dembski is desperate to
 

2045
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:04,750
conclusions Dembski is desperate to
arrive at. So, in short, he is not just

00:35:04,750 --> 00:35:04,760
arrive at. So, in short, he is not just
 

2047
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,990
arrive at. So, in short, he is not just
vague or misleading, his math also

2048
00:35:06,990 --> 00:35:07,000
vague or misleading, his math also
 

2049

Don't forget, they successfully

Don't forget, they successfully

Don't forget, they successfully

overturned a landmark legal decision,

wasn't coincidence. It was the direct

wasn't coincidence. It was the direct
result of their successful infiltration

result of their successful infiltration
 

2661
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,590
result of their successful infiltration
of our Supreme Court. This should

terrify you. They just recently came
 

2665
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:47,950
terrify you. They just recently came

practice their religion. The only reason
 

2679
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:00,670
practice their religion. The only reason
it didn't happen is because Amy Barrett

it didn't happen is because Amy Barrett
 

2681
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:02,790
it didn't happen is because Amy Barrett
apparently grew a conscience and recused

apparently grew a conscience and recused
 

2683
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,670
apparently grew a conscience and recused
herself on the case. So, it ended in a

split 4-4 ruling and ultimately bounced

split 4-4 ruling and ultimately bounced
 

2687
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,510
split 4-4 ruling and ultimately bounced
back to the state ruling for now. But,

back to the state ruling for now. But,
 

2689
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,390
back to the state ruling for now. But,
make no mistake, they plan to break that

make no mistake, they plan to break that

make no mistake, they plan to break that

unregulated money the churches get just

unregulated money the churches get just
isn't good enough. So, they want the

brainwash children with religion and can
