I don't agree with atheists anymore. They are simply ambrhamanics without a God. They carry the same mindset of US vs Them. They carry that same air of self righteousness and superiority over others. They have their sins and rules. They will crucify their apostates. Tell me how any of the atheist is different from any religious person. Dawkins for example. He is a missionary by all means. A missionary of 'No God'. I still Remeber how atheists started advertising themselves, carrying out billboard signs, seminars etc. And how they would and they do attack anybody who questions them... I mean their religion. The problem isn't with religion. The problem lies with abrahamanical beliefs. You don't become an atheist just by renouncing God. You become one by not giving a fuck about any theology. You do it by not caring about somebody's beliefs. The problem is not God. The problem is abrahmanism. One God, one book, set or rules, binary world view. And sadly atheism is not above it. You are as religiously indoctrinated as anybody else. Infact it's atheism which brought science and religion at face with each other. We landed on moon, and religion did not have any problem with Sceince. People kept on doing what they needed to do. You needed more of that. More people not caring about what you belive, not huddling themselves together in groups based on beliefs. Atheists may not belive in a God. But they are no less religiously indoctrinated than a devout christian. De-Abrahamanise your mind. I am An atheist who still attends all religious function in his Home, because my parents wish me to be there. I don't have to believe in God. Or anybody else. It doesn't matter if I bow or I don't bow. I don't make it a issue. I don't fight my parents to convert them into my own religion. BTW... Atheism is not a modern concept. It's a concept well embedded in Dharmic religions (experiential religions, as oppose to Intellectual religions of Abraham).... Of the East. It includes Hinduism, Shintoism, Taoism etc. I have a Hindu family. I have never prayed a minute in my life. And I dint have to come out of my closet like it was some big deal. Most of eastern scoeities never cared what you believed in, and that's why you see so many Gods (some community having a unique God per family)... And they did not fight. They didn't argue over who was better than whom. Whose was a true God and whose was false. They are experiential religion. That means God has to be experienced and seeked. And that means as many humans that many different experience. That's why you cannot convert to Hinduism. The Hare Krishnas that people see in the west are considered a fringe group in India. Because that organisation is mostly run by westerners and they again have introduced that idea of 'one true God'. Infact in mainstream hinduism Krishna is considered the avatar of the divine not even the divine in Hinduism. And there have been many like him. Buddha is also considered to be an avatar. And Hindus consider him a Hindu Saint There is hardly any religious fighting before abrahamanical religions landed in the east. I cringe when atheists start talking shit about God and Christians. I am like why the hell you have to do it? It reminds of catholic missionaries in India, who have this insatiable itch to convert everybody. Attack them if they attack you. Else live you life and screw your God, my God his God or her God... Why does it matter even.
Just the fact that humans can reflect on themselves and ask those deep questions that amazing capacity it is just mesmerizing. Evolution seems to be a hell of a designer!
IT didn't design.....absolutely everything had to happen and interact randomly as it did in the same exact ways it did for us and the other life on Earth to even be here....if it went any other way or deviated at all we would not exist as we do today the same and we would be asking different questions then these.....it's all random pieces that fell into place the way they did.....and evolution isn't absolutely the way life came to be either, it's what we have learned so far and the most plausable explanation until we come across more proof to support it or proof to support other scientific means as alternatives.....so science will constantly change and challenge it's beliefs and follow evidence. Religion is the opposite, never changing and dosen't question and analize itself because it dosen't want to prove itself wrong.....Science does want to prove itself wrong. One produces nieve uneducated people who want to be told what to believe...and the other are intelligent people willing to question their own beliefs in Science and how they think something might work......so many see that as a sign of deception when the info changes all the time and they can't keep up....they are called Religious
@@jnielsen90 i don’t think armando meant “designer” in the literal sense, or in the manner that religious proponents of creationism/intelligent design myths use the word “designer”. In this context, “designer” is used as a rhetorical device or metaphor to describe a long, natural process such as evolution. At least that’s the impression I got, but probably only because I write a lot and use the same methods to describe an intangible, abstract concept, idea, or philosophy, etc. 🤔

@@bradwest4821 well he has a podcast call Star Talk that explains science and how things work. It’s good he’s on TV. There is so much idiocy on the news these days it’s good to have a critical thinker and a scientist like Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson. It’s also great when others like Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking are trying to educate the public about science. There is nothing wrong with that.
Funny how I wanted to say at the beginning of the interview "where s the politics in this", but at the end I understood. Thanks Bill, for the good word that you are preaching you are the greatest
Well yeah...that's why he's considered a good science 'communicator'...he's likable and relatable. He's also a media darling, but you know exactly why 'they' fawn over him. But...he's not considered an exceptional astrophysicist by his peers. His name is never mentioned when other scientists are asked as to who the most important and influential scientists are in the 21st century.
The scientist yearns to find and eventually know the truth; The religious man wants the truth to fit his preconceived mold. So as a result... The scientist alters his perception to conform to the facts; The religious man tries to change the facts to conform to his beliefs.

I appreciate his distinction between asking the questions of Science (how) and questions of religion/philosophy (why). They are two different areas of inquiry, and they do not have to be at odds with each other. A fantastic book to read by an author who holds a PhD in astrophysics and who is an Orthodox priest is Science and the Christian Faith: A Guide for the Perplexed by Christopher C. Knight.
They must necessarily be at odds with each other, because religion/faith does not care about truth, only belief. You can't get to truth from faith, because nobody with faith will ever be able to tell if they're the ones who are wrong. You claim that they don't overlap, and yet they do. They must overlap at truth. And religion doesn't.
I love Bill’s second question. Sebastian said “if we can agree being exists and nothingness doesn’t exist, then being must be completely unified through space and time, because being can’t be divided by nothingness, which doesn’t exist”.
To exist, means to BE in a particular Time and Space. Ergo- no existence outside of time and space, because Time and Space are prerequisites for existents
can't prove a negative on that scale. "nothingness" _could_ exist. The issue is that we just haven't observed it. Burden of proof is on the person making the claim.
@@VoodooV1 "Nothingness" was invented as a placeholder for the absence of something in particular. It's not a thing to be observed. A room with nothing in it just means it is void of furniture. It's Nothingness isn't a thing
@Jeims Numin I have a dictionary that begs to differ. Better yet, try to describe an existent that is not confined to time and space. We exist today in this time and space. Dinosaurs existed at a particular time, and space (planet earth). The planet Pluto exists in a particular time and occupies a certain space. Nature, commanded must be obeyed. It's as simple as that.
What is the most relevant question. What, why, where, when, who are the 5 that matter. What, when, where, why are very important. But WHO decides the what, why, when, & where influences all the latter questions!
@@lnss8775 "Who" is irrelevant until you determine the "how." If it was a natural process, then there is no "who." You may say that creation requires a creator, but that's just bad tautology, because if we call it reality instead, we find no need of a realtor.
@@lnss8775 There are two problems with this "God of the Gaps" fallacy you keep trying to invoke. The first is that the history of science has shown that you only make progress when you stop assuming that God did it. Further, WHEN the relevant cause is discovered and studied, invoking a god to explain it becomes irrelevant. The process always works without that hypothesis. The second is that discovering that there was agency involved does not necessarily tell you which agent it is. For that reason, if you look at the beauty of the trees (pick an example, it doesn't matter), and assume that it was the god of the Bible that's responsible for the tree's creation, another man from a different religion would claim that it was HIS god, not yours. Neither of you would be justified, even if one of you WERE correct, because neither of you have done the work to determine the cause. But what's worse, is that neither of you would even be CAPABLE of convincing the other, and for the same reason: neither of you have done the work, and neither of you can demonstrate your claims. IF a "who" was involved, you don't discover it by invoking the "God of the Gaps" fallacy, you discover it by reverse engineering the method by which the object of study was produced. In the case of the trees, the process involved is always some form of selection, be it artificial or natural. Claiming that trees were produced by God saying, "let there be trees," is no more useful than saying that trees are made with the "Bippity-Boppity-Boo" spell. Until you can repeat or demonstrate the process by invoking the"Bippity-Boppity-Boo" spell, then the claim is meaningless, as is claiming that God did it. We can reverse engineer the process of evolution through the fossil record, through cladistics, through genetics, etc, and by live observations in the field, and in the lab. We can CONFIRM that evolution happens. But nobody has EVER observed an act of "Creation." Until that happens, you can shut up with these "who" questions. "Who" is irrelevant until the "how" has been determined.
@@BlackEpyon I understand what ur trying to say but I think ur misunderstanding what I meant. But some of ur conjecture isn't built on facts like u claim. I wasn't referring to God of gaps lol. I actually don't even invoke God! When I say who is more important, we must first understand that winners write history! So until you understand the who questions I can say the same to you, shut up about ur how questions lol. Science is rooted in mathematics & most of "what" we know or think we know is by way of manmade construct; ex: we say there are 365 days a year or 24 hrs in a day, WHO determined that? U can argue science or math but if u rly break it down those values are manmade, not actual proof! Yes we can confirm evolution happens, but not in the way most ppl identify evolution(ex: man comes from apes.) And ur factually wrong about nobody ever observing creation lol. If u think that's true then udk what creation means. Its basic definition is the act of bringing something into existence. I guess nobody has ever saw a sperm enter an egg to make it fertile & CREATE LIFE! Or maybe cloning; which is literally the CREATION of an identical copy of whatever organism is cloned. But since u wanna bring up the god of the gaps which is ironic in that science can't explain everything, remember most of what we accept as scientific fact is based on theories because what we call scientific fact evolves over time lol
@@72marshflower15 Who's a what? Capitalism is an economic concept and liberalism is a political lean, they do not cancel each other out. That's like comparing a sedan to a sedan that runs on diesel. It's still a sedan. A supercab pickup truck can also run on diesel. It's still a supercab pickup truck. That is: a liberal can be a capitalist and a conservative can ALSO be a capitalist. A liberal can be a communist and so can a conservative. Money does not lend itself to any one side of the political spectrum, we all use money to buy stuff and we live by the way money is gotten.
Take anything in the universe, and we can measure what direction it is traveling and how fast it is going. We find everything is speeding up moving away from each other. So if you "roll the tape backwards" you get everything converging on one point.
But if you take into consideration the extremely short time frame (compared to any credible estimates about the age of the universe) of all our observations, how confident can one be about the results gained by extrapolating so far outside the data set (in regards to time and distance)?
@@mikaoljakka2013 true, not like 13 billion years is "short" lol but yeah, i don't take everything they say as gospel, but i'd say it makes the most sense. There is a mysterious element to it, like i ask myself those questions Bill put forth at the beginning...that's where Tyson and i diverge. Like what was here "before" and "why". He talks about the "how". I'm fine with that EDIT: oh the short time frame of our calculations.....yeah i know....that part! LOL
I don't need my existence to have a meaning beyond me and the people who know me. I don't need the universe to have a purpose. Those are the two main reasons I don't need religion. The third one is I've read a few "holy book" and frankly, the writing sucks so much there's no way an omniscient being was involved at any point.
"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then from whence comes evil?"
I feel that Christ's buddies the apostles exploited their leader by painting him as a deity, one and same with the one "true God", lifted from the Greeks and others' concept of "gods", and created a profitable business for themselves by each one writing their versions of the Gospels, with the Bible as end product. Basically, a kind of "Guide to Moral Living for Dummies" who can't or won't think or feel for themselves.
Trust me you don’t. They cut it off just on time. I watched last night on HBO. It went off the rails right after they cut it. Bill was actually pissed.
@@kydalchemy Yes it was weird. I thought he might have just been playing Devil's advocate to rile up Tyson, but Bill seemed agitated and defensive toward him.

The expression "can't see the mountain for the hills" comes to mind. Or in this case, can't see the truth for the hate.
I am not an atheist, but when certain people say "there is no sudden beginning: God made the universe", I think (and sometimes say) well, then, who made GOD?" which puts their panties in a knot ("but that's DIFFERENT!")

MTG said yesterday she doesn't believe in evolution 🤣 No surprise really, she's not that smart and won't believe anything when there is proof, only when there's none. Like all Trumpists i guess.
I am so envious of those who understand modern physics. I just can't wrap my head around the fundamental concepts. For instance how can we even prove that much of the visible night sky which is millions of light years away is actually still there? If today space is bigger and cooler today than yesterday what evidence is there that the course of the universe is so linear as to predict a single hot origin 13.8 billion years ago. All said it's a fascinating place.
I think along those lines. I think “universes”are collapsing and Big Banging endlessly and there are more “universes” than our own or it is one infinite universe with areas collapsing and big banging infinitely. I don’t believe in “one” beginning, as that then infers a “god” thing that started it. I also believe as we develop better space telescopes and can see further the entire age of the universe will go out the window as we see the further distance we can see the older it is.

Around 3000 years ago, a Bible writer wrote this about the earth. Isaiah 40:22 "There is One who dwells above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers. He is stretching out the heavens like a fine gauze, And he spreads them out like a tent to dwell in." Explain please how he describes earth and space so accurately that long ago. Job 26:7 "He stretches out the northern sky over empty space, Suspending the earth upon nothing;" This was written almost 4000 years ago. Again, describing the earth is accurate detail. For centuries, so called "wise and intelligent" men said the earth was flat and rested on the back of a turtle or something else. Are we so sure about the ones now who claim to be such? It isn't that there isn't proof of God's existence, it's that it's not the answer most people want to hear. Want more proof? Okay, here it is. Man had the explanation of the water cycle backwards until the late 1800's. The Bible however had it right nearly 4000 years ago. There is only one way this was possible. Divine wisdom from above. The One who made it certainly knows how it all works. There is far far more in the Bible that prove it to be the work of the Almighty God. But most dismiss it without bothering to find out what it really says. Sadly most religions do not work in the Bible's favor and so people dismiss it because of them. But the Bible is the most published book in the world and has been for many many years so there is no excuse for not having this information available to you. Many just don't want to know. But here are just 2 examples you can look up yourself. Look it up in any online Bible if you don't have one. The third one is found at Job 36:27, 28 Three perfectly right answers from nearly 4000 years ago? Coincidence? Not hardly!
Well, there are likely people out there who may be smarter than NDT, but they're few and far between. There are only 1500 people on Earth with an IQ higher than 180. They seem to find their ways into think tanks. I'm happy with NDT doing science comedy like this.
Why? So he can royaly screw that up, too? Money matters, except when dealing with a con man. Watch me! Follow me! See that I am a liar! Woo hoo! Science nothingness with this guy! Stop elevating him with the actual Cosmos!

Simply knowing how the big bang happened doesn't give you any indication for how to act as a human being. But it's okay, your "dumb" ancestors have been using mythology to look out for your well-being since long before you ever existed.

I love Tyson and what he does but I gave up on his Star Talk podcast which might as well be named the Neil and Craig Comedy Hour. They are the rudest, most annoying interviewers I have ever witnessed on any show and that's saying a lot. Every guest gets trampled on and talked over by these two. Sorry Neil but you lost this listener.
Okay, I'm about to watch this segment but stopped to grab a pencil and keep tally of how many times NDT interrupts. Be right back with the results!! ***** Post-show Followup: well, okay then. I am now eating my hat. Dr. Tyson returned from the Covid staycation as the eloquent speaker I formerly knew and loved. I don't think he interrupted once, and it was a treat to see him in rare form. Let's hope he has returned to the patient and thoughtful speaker he has been in the past. My own wish is that he has overcome the anxiety-ridden need to be fawned over as the hilarious center-of-attention (which I believe was further exacerbated by the foul accusations and subsequent redemption).

Remember, Dr. DeGrase, it was an aspect of Informal Philosophy, the Logical Fallacies, when combined with curiosity that created scientific methodology which permeates and guides science.
So I was wondering what kind if glitches effect the pilots vision outside the cockpit? They made visual conformation, this isn’t a phenomenon only made from navy pilot testimonials. Multiple contacts on multiple sources and assets. I feel he has a to cover for prior assessments on the subject. Not feeling NTD
I felt the same way! Totally over NTD as of today! He was rude to Bill, and his insults to Navy pilots who experience what we cannot, he wanted to shut them down? For a guy who is supposed to be smart - he came across as a closed minded unpleasant man.
I was thinking the same thing. So, it was like a 4-way glitch affective the camera on the plane, the pilot and other person in the plane, as well as the radar system, all glitching in exactly the same way. NDT is strange on this issue. He seemingly won't even acknowledge the possibility that any of the videos sightings are real, let alone that they're seemingly way beyond known human technology.
This was amongst many things he said that I found lacking. Likening experienced navy pilots to common observers and "glitchy/artifactual" multi million dollar sensors
@@JCaesar11 The other thing that bothers me is the lack of curiosity. Here's a man who normally talks about how he was so inspired by scientific mysteries during his life. But now there are these new mysteries, which have already inspired many people like me, and could inspire many millions more people. And NTD is just kind of like "Uh, not interesting. It's probably a software glitch or something."

It’s like looking into a Funhouse mirror.
@@jnielsen90 i don’t think armando meant “designer” in the literal sense, or in the manner that religious proponents of creationism/intelligent design myths use the word “designer”. In this context, “designer” is used as a rhetorical device or metaphor to describe a long, natural process such as evolution. At least that’s the impression I got, but probably only because I write a lot and use the same methods to describe an intangible, abstract concept, idea, or philosophy, etc. 🤔

I like how he replaced bill nye as the go to misinformer in the California Confederacy
He's also become a blowhard that loves his own voice... and he's become close minded as well... its shameful. This is what fame does.
Well yeah...that's why he's considered a good science 'communicator'...he's likable and relatable. He's also a media darling, but you know exactly why 'they' fawn over him. But...he's not considered an exceptional astrophysicist by his peers. His name is never mentioned when other scientists are asked as to who the most important and influential scientists are in the 21st century.
#TogetherEvery1AchievesMore TEAM!
The scientist yearns to find and eventually know the truth;
The religious man wants the truth to fit his preconceived mold. So as a result...
The scientist alters his perception to conform to the facts;
The religious man tries to change the facts to conform to his beliefs.

Neil's great. I can't wait for his next documentary.
Love NdGT! The man is incredible....
I appreciate his distinction between asking the questions of Science (how) and questions of religion/philosophy (why). They are two different areas of inquiry, and they do not have to be at odds with each other. A fantastic book to read by an author who holds a PhD in astrophysics and who is an Orthodox priest is Science and the Christian Faith: A Guide for the Perplexed by Christopher C. Knight.
Except that the why cannot be answered, but sure you can make stuff up. aka religion (which is what he said - wondering if you listened to THAT).
They must necessarily be at odds with each other, because religion/faith does not care about truth, only belief. You can't get to truth from faith, because nobody with faith will ever be able to tell if they're the ones who are wrong. You claim that they don't overlap, and yet they do. They must overlap at truth. And religion doesn't.
Niel and Bill have always had a blast me blast you mentality ....but they seem to genuinely get over each other's egos and are truly friends
I love Bill’s second question. Sebastian said “if we can agree being exists and nothingness doesn’t exist, then being must be completely unified through space and time, because being can’t be divided by nothingness, which doesn’t exist”.
To exist, means to BE in a particular Time and Space. Ergo- no existence outside of time and space, because Time and Space are prerequisites for existents
can't prove a negative on that scale. "nothingness" _could_ exist. The issue is that we just haven't observed it. Burden of proof is on the person making the claim.
@@VoodooV1 "Nothingness" was invented as a placeholder for the absence of something in particular. It's not a thing to be observed. A room with nothing in it just means it is void of furniture. It's Nothingness isn't a thing
@Jeims Numin yes that's what us humans invented the word to describe
@Jeims Numin I have a dictionary that begs to differ. Better yet, try to describe an existent that is not confined to time and space. We exist today in this time and space. Dinosaurs existed at a particular time, and space (planet earth). The planet Pluto exists in a particular time and occupies a certain space. Nature, commanded must be obeyed. It's as simple as that.
Great conversation
Before you ask "why," ask "how." Once you know the "how," you'll know whether or not "why" is even relevant.
What is the most relevant question. What, why, where, when, who are the 5 that matter. What, when, where, why are very important. But WHO decides the what, why, when, & where influences all the latter questions!
@@lnss8775 "Who" is irrelevant until you determine the "how." If it was a natural process, then there is no "who." You may say that creation requires a creator, but that's just bad tautology, because if we call it reality instead, we find no need of a realtor.
@@BlackEpyon so u switch to a theoretical saying "if it was a natural process." Who will always determine the how or why
@@lnss8775 There are two problems with this "God of the Gaps" fallacy you keep trying to invoke. The first is that the history of science has shown that you only make progress when you stop assuming that God did it. Further, WHEN the relevant cause is discovered and studied, invoking a god to explain it becomes irrelevant. The process always works without that hypothesis.
The second is that discovering that there was agency involved does not necessarily tell you which agent it is. For that reason, if you look at the beauty of the trees (pick an example, it doesn't matter), and assume that it was the god of the Bible that's responsible for the tree's creation, another man from a different religion would claim that it was HIS god, not yours. Neither of you would be justified, even if one of you WERE correct, because neither of you have done the work to determine the cause. But what's worse, is that neither of you would even be CAPABLE of convincing the other, and for the same reason: neither of you have done the work, and neither of you can demonstrate your claims.
IF a "who" was involved, you don't discover it by invoking the "God of the Gaps" fallacy, you discover it by reverse engineering the method by which the object of study was produced. In the case of the trees, the process involved is always some form of selection, be it artificial or natural. Claiming that trees were produced by God saying, "let there be trees," is no more useful than saying that trees are made with the "Bippity-Boppity-Boo" spell. Until you can repeat or demonstrate the process by invoking the"Bippity-Boppity-Boo" spell, then the claim is meaningless, as is claiming that God did it.
We can reverse engineer the process of evolution through the fossil record, through cladistics, through genetics, etc, and by live observations in the field, and in the lab. We can CONFIRM that evolution happens.
But nobody has EVER observed an act of "Creation." Until that happens, you can shut up with these "who" questions. "Who" is irrelevant until the "how" has been determined.
@@BlackEpyon I understand what ur trying to say but I think ur misunderstanding what I meant. But some of ur conjecture isn't built on facts like u claim. I wasn't referring to God of gaps lol. I actually don't even invoke God! When I say who is more important, we must first understand that winners write history! So until you understand the who questions I can say the same to you, shut up about ur how questions lol. Science is rooted in mathematics & most of "what" we know or think we know is by way of manmade construct; ex: we say there are 365 days a year or 24 hrs in a day, WHO determined that? U can argue science or math but if u rly break it down those values are manmade, not actual proof! Yes we can confirm evolution happens, but not in the way most ppl identify evolution(ex: man comes from apes.) And ur factually wrong about nobody ever observing creation lol. If u think that's true then udk what creation means. Its basic definition is the act of bringing something into existence. I guess nobody has ever saw a sperm enter an egg to make it fertile & CREATE LIFE! Or maybe cloning; which is literally the CREATION of an identical copy of whatever organism is cloned. But since u wanna bring up the god of the gaps which is ironic in that science can't explain everything, remember most of what we accept as scientific fact is based on theories because what we call scientific fact evolves over time lol
I wish this segment was way longer!
"That's why people invented religion"... Neil, you are so, so brilliant and courageous to utter such words... Fabulous interview, Bill.

Your hypothesis needs more love....
Take anything in the universe, and we can measure what direction it is traveling and how fast it is going. We find everything is speeding up moving away from each other. So if you "roll the tape backwards" you get everything converging on one point.
someone who finally gets it :)
But if you take into consideration the extremely short time frame (compared to any credible estimates about the age of the universe) of all our observations, how confident can one be about the results gained by extrapolating so far outside the data set (in regards to time and distance)?
@@mikaoljakka2013 true, not like 13 billion years is "short" lol but yeah, i don't take everything they say as gospel, but i'd say it makes the most sense. There is a mysterious element to it, like i ask myself those questions Bill put forth at the beginning...that's where Tyson and i diverge. Like what was here "before" and "why". He talks about the "how". I'm fine with that
EDIT: oh the short time frame of our calculations.....yeah i know....that part! LOL
I don't need my existence to have a meaning beyond me and the people who know me. I don't need the universe to have a purpose. Those are the two main reasons I don't need religion. The third one is I've read a few "holy book" and frankly, the writing sucks so much there's no way an omniscient being was involved at any point.
"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then from whence comes evil?"
I feel that Christ's buddies the apostles exploited their leader by painting him as a deity, one and same with the one "true God", lifted from the Greeks and others' concept of "gods", and created a profitable business for themselves by each one writing their versions of the Gospels, with the Bible as end product. Basically, a kind of "Guide to Moral Living for Dummies" who can't or won't think or feel for themselves.
@@eargasm1072 yeah, today we'd call them "influencers" and the Bible would say "please like and subscribe" instead of "amen".

If "holding" was customary for all the major philosophers 😂
I am so envious of those who understand modern physics. I just can't wrap my head around the fundamental concepts. For instance how can we even prove that much of the visible night sky which is millions of light years away is actually still there? If today space is bigger and cooler today than yesterday what evidence is there that the course of the universe is so linear as to predict a single hot origin 13.8 billion years ago. All said it's a fascinating place.
What if the big bang was just the universe having its collective mind being blown at the same time and that just keeps happening over and over again?
I think along those lines. I think “universes”are collapsing and Big Banging endlessly and there are more “universes” than our own or it is one infinite universe with areas collapsing and big banging infinitely. I don’t believe in “one” beginning, as that then infers a “god” thing that started it.

Where did the mind come from to bang?
Around 3000 years ago, a Bible writer wrote this about the earth. Isaiah 40:22
"There is One who dwells above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers. He is stretching out the heavens like a fine gauze, And he spreads them out like a tent to dwell in." Explain please how he describes earth and space so accurately that long ago. Job 26:7 "He stretches out the northern sky over empty space, Suspending the earth upon nothing;" This was written almost 4000 years ago. Again, describing the earth is accurate detail. For centuries, so called "wise and intelligent" men said the earth was flat and rested on the back of a turtle or something else. Are we so sure about the ones now who claim to be such? It isn't that there isn't proof of God's existence, it's that it's not the answer most people want to hear. Want more proof? Okay, here it is. Man had the explanation of the water cycle backwards until the late 1800's. The Bible however had it right nearly 4000 years ago. There is only one way this was possible. Divine wisdom from above. The One who made it certainly knows how it all works. There is far far more in the Bible that prove it to be the work of the Almighty God. But most dismiss it without bothering to find out what it really says. Sadly most religions do not work in the Bible's favor and so people dismiss it because of them. But the Bible is the most published book in the world and has been for many many years so there is no excuse for not having this information available to you. Many just don't want to know. But here are just 2 examples you can look up yourself. Look it up in any online Bible if you don't have one. The third one is found at Job 36:27, 28 Three perfectly right answers from nearly 4000 years ago? Coincidence? Not hardly!

I love Tyson and what he does but I gave up on his Star Talk podcast which might as well be named the Neil and Craig Comedy Hour. They are the rudest, most annoying interviewers I have ever witnessed on any show and that's saying a lot. Every guest gets trampled on and talked over by these two. Sorry Neil but you lost this listener.
I gave up too. Neil is anything but a good listener
Intelligent ppl tend to value their words over all others.
@@fliptophiphop1894 no, just rude people. I certainly hope it’s possible to be intelligent and polite. I understand what you mean though.
He wants you to buy his book, that's it!
The first question is not "How did it all begin?" The first question should be: Did it all begin?
Okay, I'm about to watch this segment but stopped to grab a pencil and keep tally of how many times NDT interrupts. Be right back with the results!!
*****
Post-show Followup: well, okay then. I am now eating my hat. Dr. Tyson returned from the Covid staycation as the eloquent speaker I formerly knew and loved. I don't think he interrupted once, and it was a treat to see him in rare form. Let's hope he has returned to the patient and thoughtful speaker he has been in the past. My own wish is that he has overcome the anxiety-ridden need to be fawned over as the hilarious center-of-attention (which I believe was further exacerbated by the foul accusations and subsequent redemption). My apologies, and I bid you adieu with a heartfelt: "Go Neil!"!!
To not be interrupted by a New Yorker, you have to be a New Yorker.
It's NOT Neil and it never has been, it's New York.
@@ZeroOskul haha, yes, Bill is a New Yorker, and I suppose after living there for 20 years that I'm one too. But watch Neil on his most recent visit with Joe Rogan (if you can stomach it) or countless other symposiums, etc. and you'll see what I mean. It used to be chronic and was painful to watch. I can link examples if you like...
@@bafflezbiz You just hold up a finger and say: "Aah-ah! Hey..." and go on.
@@ZeroOskul sure, but they're in front of cameras and I'd say a little courtesy goes a long way. As I said, NDT was on best behavior and I didn't see a single blatant interruption. But unfortunately, this is the exception to the rule.
Alright, I haven't watched/vetted this version (linked below) yet but the thumbnail is from that episode and the title appears to generally describe what I'm referring to.

Are we alone in the universe is probably the last question on my list of questions.
We are definitely not alone but we may never know who else there is. In our own Galaxy we MAY be alone now and for the timespan of our existence. That we might find out 😁
I'd bet my house that they are both stoned out of their mind on that dank leaf
Remember, Dr. DeGrase, it was an aspect of Informal Philosophy, the Logical Fallacies, when combined with curiosity that created scientific methodology which permeates and guides science.
So I was wondering what kind if glitches effect the pilots vision outside the cockpit? They made visual conformation, this isn’t a phenomenon only made from navy pilot testimonials. Multiple contacts on multiple sources and assets. I feel he has a to cover for prior assessments on the subject. Not feeling NTD
I felt the same way! Totally over NTD as of today! He was rude to Bill, and his insults to Navy pilots who experience what we cannot, he wanted to shut them down? For a guy who is supposed to be smart - he came across as a closed minded unpleasant man.
I was thinking the same thing. So, it was like a 4-way glitch affective the camera on the plane, the pilot and other person in the plane, as well as the radar system, all glitching in exactly the same way. NDT is strange on this issue. He seemingly won't even acknowledge the possibility that any of the videos sightings are real, let alone that they're seemingly way beyond known human technology.
This was amongst many things he said that I found lacking. Likening experienced navy pilots to common observers and "glitchy/artifactual" multi million dollar sensors
@@JCaesar11 The other thing that bothers me is the lack of curiosity. Here's a man who normally talks about how he was so inspired by scientific mysteries during his life. But now there are these new mysteries, which have already inspired many people like me, and could inspire many millions more people. And NTD is just kind of like "Uh, not interesting. It's probably a software glitch or something."
@@joebutler9850 I get the feeling that whatever interest or wonder he once had has now been supplanted by a desire to earn as much money as possible. He's doing a tour of talkshows and podcasts pimping his new book. I was always somewhat dismissive of the whole UFO phenomena but Cmdr David Fravor amongst others are highly compelling expert witnesses which makes how dismissive he is of them even more infuriating and frankly disrespectful.
Ouch my head hurts from the what was before the Big Bang question.
Tyson’s a dope. ..seen hard-to-live-down hilarious twitter smack downs too
Science says how, but not why. I like that. A too often forgotten bullet point about science.
