That's what you said: God's Plan, if we pursuit less and believe more… We are closer to creation itself. “There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” Or Penta-sensorial Perception. Accept: We only know 0,000001% of reality as a whole concept, and we are doing better than ever. Scientific Method but it has only a few Laws, which are unbreakable. Gravity, Mendel. But evolution? It's a THEORY. Darwin is fitting but not for long… 😅

Next time you make a video, try having it based in facts. What utter BS. 👎👎

Morbid curiosity has always driven me to check out the old cemeteries around my state… it would boggle your mind how many kids under 2 were dying during the late 1800s early 1900s.. times were tough

If it was not for modern times and modern MEDICINE, would be dead at 12 years old, just because penicillin was crated 100 years ago.
In the past 10 years I had Tonsillitis 2 to 3 time a year, where every time it was bacterial. Every time I needed antibiotics to live one more year….. and every time I think that if I was born as the same time as my grand dad, I would not survive to reproductive age. The people that were capable of living that long, may not be the smartest, but certainly the stronger, or at least, the luckiest……..

Well, that's why people were reproducing at 12, by their 20's they would be done already

It makes alot if sense that our bodies pretty much start to break down after 30 because we were never really ment to live that long

False, the Bible tells us the first humans, who lived about 6,000 – 7,000 years ago lived to be over 900 years old each until the great flood which was about 4,500 years ago

Then why do we still act foolish, if we all put our minds together and use our brains things like Alzheimer's would be a joke, limb regeneration and having your casual human built like Captain America would be nothing but the norm instead we waste time on things like soulmates, and casually wait until death gets us – we should have learned by now, make these things possible but no scientists are learning more why don't we be the scientist 👾

everything and yet people still complain about how theyre born in the wrong era…no youre just lazy to make any change and just blame everything and everyone why your reality isnt to your liking but if you live in the united states you have more oppertunity then anyone in the history of the world to strive and move forward but still your choices everyday leads to the outcome of your lives. with that i hope everyone a smooth journey for there will be ups and downs but move forward.

"to upgrade humans into to gods"… that hubris is why The GOD will shut us down. You, reading this, are not a god. Throw your hate.

Adding modern abortions into these stats, I wonder how they'd look?

Fuck…..
Thanks for the misleading title.
I was expecting a video talking about how childish most people are.
Who cares that a twenty year old today has statisically outlived the majority of humans who have ever lived?
Well, I guess all the rest of you do.

How do these people know this, how do they calculate the world populations when we weren’t there to take a census This is purely speculation and I hope people don’t blindly believe this

When I was 7, I thought I'm going to be adult in 3 years, years went by, I'm 35, still didn't happened, asked dad (74) when he thinks he became adult, he replied he is not sure
