Neil deGrasse Tyson: Bible in Classroom
"A short excerpt from his Keynote presentation at the Amazing Meeting 6 in Las Vegas, NV."
|
"We are all connected; to each other biologically, to the earth chemically, to the rest of the universe atomically."
"So you're made of detritus [from exploded stars]. Get over it. Or better yet, celebrate it. After all, what nobler thought can one cherish than that the universe lives within us all?" -Neil DeGrasse Tyson |

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.
Why not question something for a change?

| Very fine story. Natural teachers like Neil deGrasse Tyson are worth their weight in Higgs bosons.

Here's a fun little snippet from Tyson. And yes, that's Richard Dawkins out in the audience. |

If I'm not mistaken, Nye and Tyson appeared in one of the last episodes of Stargate Atlantis.
