Cliffe Knechtle - Evolutionary Theory and Religion Debating the Boundaries

In this thought-provoking video, Cliffe Knechtle dives deep into the complex relationship between evolutionary theory and religion. As an American Christian, Cliffe shares his insights on whether faith and science can coexist harmoniously or if they fundamentally oppose each other. He addresses common misconceptions surrounding evolution, discusses the implications of teaching scientific theories alongside religious beliefs, and explores how Christians can engage with a secular society while holding onto their faith. With an open and respectful dialogue, Cliffe encourages viewers to rethink the boundaries between belief and scientific understanding. Join us for an enlightening conversation that seeks to bridge the gap between spirituality and science! #cliffeknechtle #debate #evolution #apologetics

The Cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to those being saved it is the power of God.

Cliffe has answered a lot of my questions today. Thank you

[OriginalNeoSupreme]

That "Oh my goodness" from the crowd at 8:01 summed up my thoughts. It's a blessing to have a strong level of patience.

[cleongionetactor]

She has a lot of passion—I think Cliffe just planted a seed. 😂

[timorean]

The "eternal pain" is the realization you were wrong, its self induced.

[mikeham]

Christianity is not a religion! It’s a relationship with God.

[pierrenemolander]

Very Good Cliffe I appreciate your patience 🎉

[unskillfullymasterful]

My goodness, this woman tries to say the same thing in different ways but still says the same thing effectively.. this guy has a lot of patience for these lost people

[eveyjd]

This girl didn't realize that she has a big faith in what she believes. But she can't even agree with the philosophy that she's living in.

CLIFFE IS ALWAYS COOKING!!!!BLESS GOD!!

[스라최]

I am PK, and a lot of the kids in school made the arguments she made against me. They didn't have bad intentions looking back, but I took it personally. I thank the girl who asked those questions so that I may hear the answers

[chad]

She did not want to hear the Eugenics explaination. That set her brain into a tailspin because it is absolutely true.

[johntomlinson-jx]

I totally understand what she say's about feeling disconnected with god in Church. I have strong reservations about joining any organized religion. But that does not keep me from my desire to come closer to the Holy Spirit. "But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your father who is in secret. And your Father who see's in secret will reward you". -Matthew 6:6 . It also goes on about How Not to pray with mindless repetition like the Pagans or for Social Gratification.

misinformed and misguided generation, God bless you cliffe for schooling

[Minchito]

6:47 you know its over when he kneels down. 🔥

[joshuaimchen]

My dear sister Mathew 9:12 it is not the healthy who need a doctor, but those who are ill.

[gopalgaundar]

The woman said she cannot connect with God but can connect with other theories.
She doent know she is in great error.
The reason she cannot connect with God is she doesnt know God.She is not believer in Jesus Christ.

[LoneStarLawman]

Side note. Paganism, or neo-paganism, and Wicca are associated with evolution. I know one Phd in philosophy a paleontologist, and mamalogist, who practices neo-paganism. I pray for her everyday, that she will be saved by Jesus Christ.

[cloudzero]

I need to start by pointing out that although this lady calls herself a Christian, she is certainly not; 6:35 "instead of believing in some magical being in the sky". This line betrays that she has never even read the Bible. There are so many issues with macro evolution, the problem is that those things aren't taught in schools and glazed over. Irreducible Complexity, the unignorable gaps in the fossil record, that time hinders evolution at the beginning and doesn’t help it (because certain things have a short amount of time to make connections), and the idea that it relies on mistakes in DNA as a way of improvement is absurd and goes against survival of the fittest. Creatures with mutations are much more likely to die and not to breed.

[marklangston]

There is variation within limits. No creature has ever transitioned from one body plan-type into another. For instance, dogs always beget dogs, cows-cows, scales never even begin to transition into feathers, or arms into wings. Body plans are predetermined at the embryonic stage and mutations to an embryo have been demonstrated scientifically to be usually lethal and at least ultimately damaging to a creature. It’s a fact that no point mutation has ever produced new information in the genetic code according to all scientific study and research. Macro evolution is always based on “just imagine…long ago and far away”
