    He may be the world’s most famous astrophysicist, and he is best known for his ability to communicate complex scientific concepts. But on this episode of Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu, Neil deGrasse Tyson shows that his prodigious intellect can take on an incredibly wide range of topics. He shares his family history, his ideas about education and religion, and his beliefs about how we can get along better with those who are different from us. Along the way, he gives some brilliant and unusual parenting advice, describes the best way to deal with haters and microaggressions, and describes his process for learning new things.

    “You have the power to create meaning in your life, rather than passively looking for it.” [28:32]
    “I can tell you this. If Einstein were here, and we’re talking with Einstein, we could talk with him for hours and hours. And you know what question would never come out of our mouths? ‘What college did you go to?” [34:05]

    I remember 3 years ago Tom was speaking in Austin at a conference who I flew into from Europe. He ended up spending HOURS after his talk outside, speaking with people up to the point where it was getting really late and only me, my friend and 3 other people were sitting around in a circle. He was answering all of our questions.
    I'll never forget that because it shows that he really really cares. That's been a huge inspiration for me to give back in the future as well when I'm in the position to mentor others.
    Thanks Tom,

      He really cares because he spent hours talking to strangers? You were probably raised by narcissistic parents. This man can't admit he is wrong when he clearly is; has a superiority complex and constantly interrupts his own colleagues; acts like a child when questioned or challlanged; gives zero fucks about you. The videos demonstrating these occurences are all over the internet, sadly. That people allow such abuse is a clear indication that we as children had our boundaries broken.

      so sure, the point is valid, but here is a time and place for everything. now, if the parent were to communicate with that child about why they chose to not allow them to do such a thing in that moment, then it would another world.
      we are raising adults, not 'children'... (while realizing we all have that within us and should do our best to 'keep it alive' while realizing it can't always 'come out')

      Larry King, "Who started all this; do you believe in God?"
      Neil, "The proper question should be who or what started it, but I don't know. If I don't know I'm going to say I don't know."
      from the beginning of this video: ruclips.net/video/v-qU4F0lNfU/видео.html
      What we KNOW and have NO doubts about...
      Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.
      Neil does not know BASIC science. Not only can't we have creation without God, Neil does not know that we also can't have science without God. The laws of nature can only come from a Lawgiver, God.
      Tyson says his dung at about 2:00 in the video below about the eye evolution. It is proven false in the rest of the video. But to shallow people, to hell with details and what the evidence shows. Your agenda is all that matters.

    I discovered Neil while surfing Netflix. I came across the title "the inexplicable universe ", and started to watch episode 1. I was always intrigued by science and loved it since grade school but this man brought back my child-like curiosity and hunger for science in my adulthood. I felt like a student watching his show and learning things about astrophysics that just blew my mind. I love that he is so humble about it too. He taught me how small we really are yet how amazing it is that we are part of the very elements that are scattered across the entire universe. I look at the sky differently and it is sadly so lost on most everyone around me.

    Ah, that story of the mom & her child walking in the rain struck a real nerve with me, because I had a similar thing happen with my now-ex-wife and our son, and hearing Neil's story felt to me like one of the things I did as a parent was the right thing.
    Hearing Neil's story allowed me to give myself permission to feel validated that something I did as a parent was actually the right thing to do.
    At least on one occasion.
    In that particular teachable moment.
    Oh, but first?
    Let me say:
    I was not a perfect father.
    I was not a perfect husband.
    (The fact she's now my EX-wife, gives strong testimony & credence to THAT fact.)
    But there was a time when our son was young, 4 or 5 maybe, when we took him to a park.
    There were all the usual fun things to play on available.
    Swings, slides, jungle gym I think, fort to climb on and slide off, etc.
    But, what captured my son's attention almost instantly?
    A sand pit with a steel push carousel.
    The kind that require you manually push them to make them turn?
    Yeah.
    One of those.
    Do those even exist anymore?
    (Him being an only child, the fact there were other kids on it already, many his own age?
    I believe was likely the most enticing aspect for him.
    He wanted to have fun on that carousel with them.
    But I digress.)
    Those carousels have/had safety grab bars that you grab to hoist yourself aboard them.
    Essentially, there are 2 ways to get on one of those.
    The first way is the easiest:
    Wait until it stops spinning, then climb on.
    The second way is to try to follow the spinning carousel and jump on or grab a passing hand hold and pull yourself on, while it's still spinning.
    Obviously, the second method is much riskier.
    One need not be an astrophysicist to figure that out.
    🙂🙂🙂😉😉😉
    (My now-ex-wife was a bit overprotective of our son, it also bears noting.
    I tended to feel she molly-coddled him.
    I always felt that the best way to teach him anything, but ESPECIALLY why NOT to do something?
    Allow him to do it, and then, when he has an adverse experience?
    He learns why he should not do whatever it was we as parents might have felt was unsafe for him.
    Within reasonable parameters, certainly.
    We didn't need to have him fall off a cliff in order for him to understand that it's wise to avoid walking close to the edge of that cliff to learn that fact if you do, you could fall off, and get really hurt, or die, for one extreme example.)
    So he was walking quickly toward the carousel, with singular focus and determination, while it was spinning.
    Rapidly spinning.
    My wife reached out to grab him to stop him and I said:
    "Let him go. Let's see what he does.
    Will he wait until it stops to get on?
    Or try to jump on while it's spinning?
    If he jumps, he'll get hurt, BUT he'll also learn NOT to try that again, and then he'll wait until it stops or slows down to get on."
    She didn't want him to get hurt.
    Mother hen tendency, which I totally get.
    But she let him go off by himself, while we watched.
    He tried to jump on, got a slight clunk on his head and landed on the ground next to the carousel.
    He was mildly hurt, but more startled than anything else.
    The other kids saw he wanted to get on, so they slowed the carousel down to stop it so he could get on.
    He got hurt trying his way, true.
    But, he learned to stop and wait until the carousel stopped spinning before trying to get on.
    In retrospect?
    A perfect teachable moment.
    An opportunity for him to learn FOR HIMSELF, that curiosity is good, but it can sometimes be dangerous and potentially harmful.
    No better teacher than experience.
    (If you touch a hot stove while it's hot?
    You learn not to touch it next time until you KNOW for sure it's not hot.)

      Yep, if you're a loser parent wanting to teach your kids to be losers too, Neil is for you.
      Neil deDumba$$ Tyson asked about the start of the universe and if he believes in God:
      Larry King, "Who started all this; do you believe in God?"
      Neil, "The proper question should be who or what started it, but I don't know. If I don't know I'm going to say I don't know."
      from the beginning of this video: ruclips.net/video/v-qU4F0lNfU/видео.html
      What we KNOW and have NO doubts about...
      Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.
      Neil does not know BASIC science. Not only can't we have creation without God, Neil does not know that we also can't have science without God. The laws of nature can only come from a Lawgiver, God.
      Tyson says his dung at about 2:00 in the video below about the eye evolution. It is proven false in the rest of the video. But to shallow people, to hell with details and what the evidence shows. Your agenda is all that matters.

    • @2fast2block
      @2fast2block 2 года назад

      Yep, great job finding loser Neil.
      Neil deDumba$$ Tyson asked about the start of the universe and if he believes in God:
      Larry King, "Who started all this; do you believe in God?"
      Neil, "The proper question should be who or what started it, but I don't know. If I don't know I'm going to say I don't know."
      from the beginning of this video: ruclips.net/video/v-qU4F0lNfU/видео.html
      What we KNOW and have NO doubts about...
      Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.
      Neil does not know BASIC science. Not only can't we have creation without God, Neil does not know that we also can't have science without God. The laws of nature can only come from a Lawgiver, God.
      Tyson says his dung at about 2:00 in the video below about the eye evolution. It is proven false in the rest of the video. But to shallow people, to hell with details and what the evidence shows. Your agenda is all that matters.

    This video really hit home for me. (This is long but worth the read if you have time) I mean it really touched me. I am now 60 yes old and grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin until I was 8 or 9. The reason it was so profound was the story about Neil's father and the racism he delt with. I can relate because, you see when I was a little skinny white kid in my neighborhood I was the only white kid. When I say that, I really mean I was the only white kid. I used to walk to school. I lived a block away. Usually on my way home from school just about every other day, I would end up being surrounded by 3 or 4 black kids and they would commence to beating the crap out of me. For the longest time I could never figure out why. I had never been brought up in a racial sort of way, so I didn't even know that the words they used to call me were bad or slurrs. They were almost as bad as the "N" word but for white people. One started with a "cra" and the other with a "hun" or "hon" depending on the person and how they pronounced it. But I honestly just didn't know they were racial slurrs. In fact truth be told, I didn't even know what a racial slurr was or what that meant. One day my neighbor told me, "You know if you fight back they will stop bothering you". I was really intrigued by that. I mean it just never occurred to me if I fought back they would just stop. He then added the caveat. "You don't have to win, but you do need to put up a good fight otherwise it could get worse. That still intrigued me. I was so nieve that I honestly just didn't know. I was a skinny white kid who saw everyone as the same. To me there was no black and white. To me they were just kids like me, which was why I really didn't understand why they didnt like me.. So anyway my neighbor takes me under his wing, he was pretty big so he had a big wing..Lol. He taught me how to defend myself and then he taught me how to really fight their street fighting way. Fast forward, he see's my baseball glove hanging off one of their bikes at the store. So we grabbed it and took off. They had bikes so they caught us. My neighbor wasn't the fastest because he was large. For this story I will call him John. It was probably for the best he was slow. They surrounded me because I had the glove. Then John stepped in and said "No". Heck I thought he was going to stop the whole thing. Which he could have. Some of them knew him. He was part of the neighborhood for sometime. But then he continued. "No, everyone here will not touch him." Then he asked who owned the bike we got the glove off. The guy stepped up. John then said, if you want his glove that bad you are going to have to fight him for it. Of course me being the skinny little white kid, I'm thinking, " You know, its cool, he can have it". I had been beat up so many times in the past I just didn't feel it was worth another beating. John pulled me aside and told me, "I know this guy, and I know what you can do because I taught you" He then sort of gave me a look that said, "you got this". So we started fighting. I cannot say how long the fight went on, and I honestly felt like I didn't do so well until I seen his nose bleeding. For some reason when I saw that, that skinny nieve white kid came out of me and I, stopped the fight and asked him if he was alright. I had never made anyone bleed before so that made me feel bad. But after that fight, I never had problems in the neighborhood again. All because I learned from John how to fight pretty darn good, but I never forgot in my heart that we were just kids. Not white or black. We were equals and I think apart from fighting fairly well, my act of kindness caught this kid off guard and that probably had more to do with me gaining their respect than beating the guy up. When I grew up to adulthood, I always looked at people the same way. I think my upbringing played a huge role in the way all of that as a kid turned out, as well as everything up until now at 60 yes old. If I didn't have the role models I had every day as a kid getting beat up, and then everyday after when I got pretty good at fighting, I think this skinny little white kid could have grown up to be one of those very racial, hateful type beating people up all the time. I am very thankful that I didn't. If I had, I would have not had the friends I had growing up. A pool of friends from all races, or at least many. But to me we were always the same and I feel we still are. Thank you to Neil for helping me remember we are all equals no matter what, and helping me remember where I got my values at. I just lost my father a few months ago so this was a nice reminder of how well he brought me up.
