This segment is particularly entertaining as Evo critic Dr. Berlinski questions Evo proponent Dr. Miller on the number of changes necessary to take a dog to a whale. Miller accedes to as few as ten changes in the "test" cases for speciation, to which Berlinski responds by pointing out that the "test" cases were species very close morphologically to one another. Whereas a dog and a whale are very far apart. Miller's response? So is that wall over there and it shouldn't surprise you that I can get there one step at a time. At this response the mostly Darwinian audience erupted in applause, as though this were some kind of substantive answer on the part of Miller.
However, since this video was done, Berlinski, who is a mathematician, has indeed attempted to enumerate the number of changes necessary. He stopped counting at 50,000, because the number of changes necessary to get from dog to whale are so staggering, not even an evolutionary adaptation scenario can account for them given the amount of time allocated to make the alleged jump. Still, that doesn't stop brilliant scientists like Miller from believing this drivel. Nor does it stop his many admirers like those in attendance for this debate from buying into Evo theory. Someone from the Evo side should've stood up and demanded Dr. Miller answer the question. They didn't; and the moderator, who was obviously an Evo devotee, didn't press the point.
