Neil deGrasse Tyson on “Intelligent Design” at Beyond Belief

@salmagnum You really believe the earth is 6000 years old? WOW theres no stopping you huh? You’re already convinced that man and dinosaurs walked together? So, if we look at it with your perspective Noah had dinosaurs on his ark right? Since man and dinosaurs walked together. Where are the dinosaurs? Where did the water go? Why isn’t there a thick level of fossils in the layer of the earth where everything was killed by the flood? You don’ have to answer my questions. Good day.

@salmagnum
You an embarrassment to humanity. To dispute Evolution is akin to denying that the Earth revolves around the Sun. If I may quote Sir David Attenborough
“Evolution is a fact. As sure as the fact that William the Conqueror. Landed at Pevensy in 1066.”

@menthol5 And there you have it folks. Pretty much the other side’s argument in a nutshell as laid out in all its simplistic beauty by this hate-filled menthol5. He’s got it ALL figured out, might even have a diploma to show for it from one of the system schools to verify his ability to pass their tests! “We don’t want Truth, we want to be RIGHT! And if we don’t like what you have to say, we’ll string you up!” The mob was no more understanding when God himself was on this earth in human form.

@salmagnum You’re above attempting to marginalize people with condescending retorts, but you have absolutely no problem with dismissing entire fields of study as basically fraudulent without anything more to back it up to vague references to evidence “buried in the Smithsonian” and the like.

This isn’t the best forum for an in depth discussion, but surely most anything you could convey to me face-to-face could be composed and presented on a web site. Show me your arguments and evidence.

@salmagnum another dumb-fuck Christer. You can troll for alterboys like your asshole priests. If I ever come one of your ‘holy’ men molesting a child, I’ll be arrested for murder.

@Quinstol You are absolutely correct Quinstol. And I never will have any credibility. You are not afforded such, no matter how much proof (or even circumstantial evidence) you offer or how intelligently you pose your queries, given the realities of the current “enlightened”, “scientific” mindset. (And yes, the quotes indicate facetious intent.) I have talked to those few who have seen behind the proverbial curtain, and have experienced that which science cannot explain, that is all.

Pt. 3: You don’t want to go there. You can’t. You can’t be wrong. Your belief system and values in this life depend upon it. You don’t want Truth, you just want to be “right”. Typical herd, sheep-bleating mentality. Enjoy yourselves. Ignorance is bliss…

Pt. 1 “100 years later…” oh, and the Age of Reason where they first said that God was dead. Laplace was a product of this culture, as is/was Darwin, Tyson, Dawkins, Sagan, et al. I wonder how many ppl would react to all the evidence supporting the Biblical account that has been swept under the rug were they allowed access to it.

its not about religion or atheism, its about science

Neil DeGrasse Tyson, you are RIGHT, Intelligient Design, or ID for short, is a philosophy of ignorance, and of WILLFULL IGNORANCE. ID supporters LOVE building STRAW MEN, it is their #1 FAVORITE logical fallacy of all time!

ok, stop the infighting! people want to blow the sucker up or nudge it away with mutual grav tether, NO, FLY AHEAD OF IT PARALLEL TO IT’S TRAJECTORY, DROP AIR TANKS WITH EXPLOSIVES STRAPPED ON, CREATE AIR POCKETS TO ALTER IT’S COURSE, THEN MANEUVER IT TO HIGH ORBIT FOR SPACE MINING

@HybridD91 I agree with your clarification, the context of my comment meant as such. For exponential growth in science, i think genome sequencing in high school or earlier could happen sooner if quantum computers are available for public use.

@tpstrat14 Chance isn’t a mechanism or diety, it’s a possible outcome.
