Episode Details

The story of evolution usually goes like this: those who are the fittest, the toughest, or the strongest survive and reproduce—the others die out.

But according to other studies, “tameness” was supposedly selected for in human evolution, somehow resulting in genetic changes as we “domesticated” ourselves, ganging up against bullies to get ahead. In other words, the nice guy wins.

But this goes against the evolutionary story of survival of the fittest. This story is always changing because it’s just that—a story invented by humans about the past.

We need to start with God’s unchanging Word, not man’s word.
