It Fills Me With Joy To Make Discoveries Every Day Of Things I’ve Never Seen Before. It Fills Me With Joy To Know That We Can Pursue These Answers. It Is An Astonishing Thing That We Are — You And I Are One Of The Ways The Universe Knows Itself.

I Don't Perceive An Anti-religious Agenda, Especially With Regard To Christians And Christianity. The Issue Being Debated Was Creationism, The Idea That The Earth Is 6,000 Years Old. As I Understand It, This Involves The Bible's Old Testament Exclusively.

Reading Their Letters And The First Amendment Of The Us Constitution, I Infer That This Nation's Founders Noted That Religions Have Been At The Center Of Great Deal Of Trouble, So They Precluded The Us Government From Getting Involved In Religion, I.e. "... Shall Make No Law Respecting An Establishment Of Religion, Or Prohibiting The Free Exercise Thereof..." Over The Centuries, Various Religions Have Laid Claim To Various Morals; Consider The Difficulties Outsiders Are Having Today In The Middle East, For Example.

In Another Couple Centuries I'm Sure That Worldview Won't Even Exist. There's No Evidence For It.

Teaching Creationism In Science Class As An Alternative To Evolution Is Inappropriate.

The Meaning Of Life Is Pretty Clear: Living Things Strive To Pass Their Genes Into The Future. The Claim That We Would Not Have Morals Or Ethics Without Religion Is Extraordinary. Animals In Nature Seem To Behave In Moral Ways Without Organized Religion.

I Don't Perceive An Anti-religious Agenda, Especially With Regard To Christians And Christianity.

To Leave The World Better Than You Found It, Sometimes You Have To Pick Up Other People's Trash.

I Speak With Dogs Frequently. They Don't Really Talk, But I Feel They're Communicating.

Science Is The Best Idea Humans Have Ever Had. The More People Who Embrace That Idea, The Better.

I Feel That I've Often Pointed Out That There Are Countless Aspects Of Life And Nature That Scientists And Scientific Thinkers Cannot Explain. Why The Universe Is Accelerating In Its Expansion And What Came Before The Big Bang Serve As Compelling Examples. The Process Of Science Provides A Way To Seek Answers To Those Questions.

How Did We Let An Ideological Resistance To Inquiry Become Such A Prominent Part Of Our Society?

I Often Reflect On What An Extraordinary Time (pun Intended) It Is To Be Alive Here In The Beginning Of The Twenty-first Century. It Took Life Billions Of Years To Get To This Point. It Took Humans Thousands Of Years To Piece Together A Meaningful Understanding Of Our Cosmos, Our Planet And Ourselves. Think How Fortunate We Are To Know This Much. But Think Also Of All That's Yet To Be Discovered. Here's Hoping The Deep Answers To The Deep Questions-from The Nature Of Consciousness To The Origin Of Life-will Be Found In Not Too Much More Time.

Tax Dollars Intended For Science Education Must Not Be Used To Teach Creationism As Any Sort Of Real Explanation Of Nature, Because Any Observation Or Process Of Inference About Our Origin And The Nature Of The Universe Disproves Creationism In Every Respect.

But Investment In Space Stimulates Society, It Stimulates It Economically, It Stimulates It Intellectually, And It Gives Us All Passion.

We Are Special In The Sense That We Can Know Our Place In The Cosmos. We Can Know Our Place In Space. We Are At Least One Of The Cosmos's Ways Of Knowing Itself. That Fills Me With Reverence And Joy. Another Insight I Really Want People To Consider Is This: Everyone Has Gotten This Far. Everyone You Meet Has Made It This Far. Nobody Is Superior To Anyone Else From An Evolutionary Standpoint.

Science Is The Key To Our Future, And If You Don't Believe In Science, Then You're Holding Everybody Back.

Along With The Evidence Of Common Sense, Researchers Have Proven Scientifically That Humans Are All One People. We're A Lot Like Dogs In That Regard. If A Great Dane Interacts (can We Say Interact?) With A Chihuahua, You Get A Dog.

If You Just Take A Single Human And Put Him Or Her In The Forest He Or She Might Not Do Very Well Without Some Sort Of Education Which He Got Or She Got From Some Tribe.

You Stop Planetary Exploration, Those People Who Do That Extraordinary Work Are Going To Have To Go Do Something Else.

The Information You Get From Social Media Is Not A Substitute For Academic Discipline At All.

Evolution Is The Fundamental Idea In All Of Life Science, In All Of Biology. The Key To Our Being Here Now Is Time, 4.54 Billion (earth) Years Of Time. Nuclear Fission Wasn't Discovered Until Long After Charles Darwin And Alfred Russell Wallace Published Their Original Books And Papers, For Example. Our Ability To Measure Atomic Masses Wasn't Developed Until Long After Their Deaths. These Features Of Nature Enabled Us To Reckon The Age Of The Earth And Compare It With Speciation Rates Here.

Evolution Is Not Something You Can Believe In Or Not Believe In Like Do You Believe In Gravity.

Evolution Is One Of The Most Powerful And Important Ideas Ever Developed In The History Of Science. Every Question It Raises Leads To New Answers, New Discoveries, And New Smarter Questions. The Science Of Evolution Is As Expansive As Nature Itself. It Is Also The Most Meaningful Creation Story That Humans Have Ever Found.

Climate Change Is Happening, Humans Are Causing It, And I Think This Is Perhaps The Most Serious Environmental Issue Facing Us.

I Used To Play Ultimate Frisbee, And I Just Got A Reputation For Making Popcorn At Parties. I Don't Mean To Brag On Myself, But I Make The Popcorn In The Pot, And It Comes Out Fine Every Time.

Nasa Is An Engine Of Innovation And Inspiration As Well As The World's Premier Space Exploration Agency, And We Are Well Served By Politicians Working To Keep It That Way, Instead Of Turning It Into A Mere Jobs Program, Or Worse, Cutting Its Budget.

Evolution Is A Theory, And It's A Theory That You Can Test. We've Tested Evolution In Many Ways. You Can't Present Good Evidence That Says Evolution Is Not A Fact.

I Am So Old, I Entered Engineering School With A Slide Rule. And I Left Engineering School With A Calculator. I Can Still Use A Slide Rule But It's Not A Skill You Especially Need Anymore.

I'll Admit That The Discovery Of Evolution Is Humbling, But It Is Also Empowering. It Transforms Our Relationship To The Life Around Us. Instead Of Being Outsiders Watching The Natural World Go By, We Are Insiders. We Are Part Of The Process; We Are The Exquisite Result Of Billions Of Years Of Natural Research And Development.

Research And Development

People Confuse The Word Cynicism With The Word Skepticism. One Is “you’re Not Gonna Pay Attention To Anything, Think Everything’s Screwed Up, Nothing’s Ever Gonna Work Out Right”, That’s Cynicism. But Skepticism Is, “you’re Presented With Evidence And You Do Your Best To Draw Conclusions Based On That”. So, As The Saying Goes, Bill Nye, Do You Believe In Ghosts? No. However, I Would Love To See One. Bring It On. I’m Open Minded To The Idea, But The More I Look Into It In A Skeptical Frame Of Thinking, The Less Likely It Seems.

Promoting A Religious Agenda That Is To Apply To Every Citizen Is Inconsistent With Our Laws In The Us. It Seems To Me That Your Community And Mine Can Live And Work Together Without Conflict.

The Future Of Commerce Is Going To Be All Electronic. The Gold Standard Was A Fine Idea, But Electronic Changes Of Funds And Credits Will Be The Future.

Science Is The Key To Our Future, And If You Don’t Believe In Science, Then You’re Holding Everybody Back. And It’s Fine If You As An Adult Want To Run Around Pretending Or Claiming That You Don’t Believe In Evolution, But If We Educate A Generation Of People Who Don’t Believe In Science, That’s A Recipe For Disaster. We Talk About The Internet. That Comes From Science. Weather Forecasting. That Comes From Science. The Main Idea In All Of Biology Is Evolution. To Not Teach It To Our Young People Is Wrong.

There's Nothing I Believe In More Strongly Than Getting Young People Interested In Science And Engineering, For A Better Tomorrow, For All Humankind.

I Tell Personal Stories Associated With Aspects Of The Theory, And I Hope They Are Interesting And Compelling. I Don't Feel You're Going To Change A Grownup's Mind In One Reading. People Have To Be Exposed To Scientific Ideas Over And Over Again For Years. It's Also Not A Textbook.

Everybody Remembers Numbers And Computers Remember Numbers. People Remember Procedures And Computers Certainly Remember Procedures. But The Other Thing That's Still Important Is That Your Perception As A Human Is Affected Subtly By All This Stuff That You Can't Quite Articulate. You Run Your Life According To All This Stuff That's Happened To You. All Of Your Memories Affect Everything You Do Whereas With A Computer, There's Adaptive Software And Things, But It's More Literal.

Science Provides A Much More Satisfactory Way To Seek Answers Than Does Any Religion.

The Debate [in Undeniable] Was Nominally About Creationism As A "viable" Explanation For What We Observe Around Us. For My Side, The Debate Went Very Well; I'm Not Sure What I Would Change, Although I Can Imagine Shortening My Answers During The Rebuttals, Perhaps.

Everyone You Will Ever Meet Knows Something You Don't.

The More You Find Out About The World, The More Opportunities There Are To Laugh At It.

Some Of The Most Wonderful Aspects And Consequences Of Evolution Have Been Discovered Only Recently. This Is In Stark Contrast To Creationism, Which Offers A Static View Of The World, One That Cannot Be Challenged Or Tested With Reason. And Because It Cannot Make Predictions, It Cannot Lead To New Discoveries, New Medicines, Or New Ways To Feed All Of Us.

A Two-and-a-half-year-old Is Pretty Experienced At Making A Mess, Anyway.

When We Explore The Cosmos, We Come To Believe And Prove That We Can Solve Problems That Have Never Been Solved. It Brings Out The Best In Us. Space Exploration Imbues Everyone With An Optimistic View Of The Future.

Everyone, Red State, Blue State, Everyone Supports Space Exploration.

Our Goal In Science Is To Discover Universal Laws Of Nature. If One's Faith Requires One To Abandon Or Ignore Natural Laws, Well, That Person Is Going To Have Trouble Reconciling Religion And Science. Otherwise, There Is No Any Conflict.

I Just Want To Remind Us All There Are Billions Of People In The World Who Are Deeply Religious, Who Get Enriched By The Wonderful Sense Of Community By Their Religion. But These Same People Do Not Embrace The Extraordinary View That The Earth Is Somehow Only 6,000 Years Old.

The Thing About A Theory In Science Is It Allows You Make Predictions. Evolutionary Theory Allows Us To Predict What Apples Will Taste Good Next Harvest.

People And Stars Are Made Of The Same Stuff.

I Say To The Grown-ups, 'if You Want To Deny Evolution And Live In Your World That's Completely Inconsistent With Everything We've Observed In The Universe That's Fine. But Don't Make Your Kids Do It.'

People That Don't Want To Get Down To The Business At Hand. Instead Of Just Doing Less, We Have To Find Ways Of Doing More With Less. That's The Key To The Future.

What Happens To Other Species Also Happens To Us.

If You Look Back On All The Teachers That You Liked, I Am Sure You Will Find They Were Very Entertaining.

I Hope Climate Science Becomes The Big Thing. And Then What I Want Is Electrical Engineers To Solve The World's Energy Problems, Energy Distribution Problems. I Want Mechanical Engineers To Make Better Transportation Systems. I Want Chemical Engineers To Develop Better Solar Panels, And So On.

We Need Them. We Need Scientifically Literate Voters And Taxpayers For The Future.

Unlike Science, Creationism Cannot Predict Anything, And It Cannot Provide Satisfactory Answers About The Past.

I Understand That You Take The Bible, As Written In English, Translated Many Many Times Over The Last Three Millennia As To Be A More Accurate, More Reasonable Assessment Of The Natural Laws We See Around Us Than What I And Everybody In Here Can Observe. That, To Me, Is Unsettling.

There Are Two Ways To Be Rich: To Have More Or Need Less. It's Estimated That We Squander About 30 Percent Of Our Energy Leaving The Lights On, The Refrigerator Door Open, And So On. Then There Is The Enormous Amount Of Food That We Expend Huge Amounts Of Energy To Raise And Then Throw Away.

That's What Makes A Human A Human, If We Store Information Outside Our Bodies.

When We See The Shadow On Our Images, Are We Seeing The Time 11 Minutes Ago On Mars? Or Are We Seeing The Time On Mars As Observed From Earth Now? It's Like Time Travel Problems In Science Fiction. When Is Now; When Was Then?

You Start Doing The Addictive Behavior To Feel Good And Then Your Receptors Get Overloaded With Dopamine, Then You Stop Doing The Addictive Thing And Some Of The Receptors Have Shut Down And You Don't Have Enough Dopamine To Feel Good. So Then You Feel Bad And Go Back To The Addictive Behavior To Get More Dopamine. The Strange Thing Is That It Works With What We Think Of As Uppers And Downers And Whatever You Call Gambling - Sidewaysers.

No Matter What You May Believe Spiritually Or Otherwise, The Earth Is Clearly Not 6,000 Or 10,000 Years Old.

If You Decide To Become A Dancer On Broadway, Never Say Who Your Favorite Dance Partner Is, Because Members Of The Media Will Presume You Never Want To Dance With Anybody Else.

The Big Bang Banged, And For Some Reason We’re Here. And That’s Astonishing. And That We Can Understand That, That’s The Most Astonishing.

Talk About Science With Everyone You Meet. Especially Talk About Climate Change. It Needs To Become A Part Of Our Everyday Conversation (the Way It Is Everywhere Else In The World).

The Earth Is Not 6,000 Or 10,000 Years Old. It's Not. And If That Conflicts With Your Beliefs, I Strongly Feel You Should Question Your Beliefs.

The Philosophy Of Science Is Inherent In The Process. This Is To Say, You Think Critically, You Draw A Conclusion Based On Evidence, But We All Pursue Discovery Based On Our Observations. That's Where Science Starts.

If You Have This Idea That The Earth Is Only 6,000 Years Old, You Are Denying, If You Will, Everything That You Can Touch And See. Youre Not Paying Attention To Whats Happening In The Universe Around You.

Our Goal In Science Is To Discover Universal Laws Of Nature. That Pursuit Fills Me With Wonder.

If You Meet Somebody Who Says He Or She Has Never Dreamed Of Flying, I Don't Believe You. I Mean, They're Lying.

Incidentally, The Creationists That I've Encountered Diligently Deny That Our Earth's Climate Is Being Altered By People. This Point Of View And Teaching Is In Absolutely No One's Best Interest. Here's Hoping We Can Work Together And Preserve The Earth, For Us - Us Humans.

The Us Navy Has Several People On Every Ship That Can Navigate By The Stars. They Don't Fool With That.

You And I Are Made Of Stardust. We Are The Stuff Of Exploded Stars. We Are Therefore, At Least 1 Way That The Universe Knows Itself. That, To Me, Is Astonishing.

People Get A Lot Out Of Being Religious. They Have Strong Senses Of Community And Mutual Support. So, What's Not To Love [there]?

America Has Had Many Other Discoverers Besides Columbus, But He Seems To Have Made More Satisfactory Arrangements With The Historians Than Any Of The Others.

Science Is A Part Of Everyone's Everyday Life.

The Theory Of Evolution Was Not Formally Published Until Shortly Before Faraday's Death. Evolution Was Yet To Be Discovered During Faraday's Life. Also, I Don't Think That Michael Faraday Would Claim That The Earth Is Extraordinarily Young.

Theory Of Evolution

History Is But The Record Of The Public And Official Acts Of Human Beings. It Is Our Object, Therefore, To Humanize Our History And Deal With People Past And Present; People Who Ate And Possibly Drank; People Who Were Born, Flourished And Died; Not Grave Tragedians, Posing Perpetually For Their Photographs.

I Try To Speak Plainly And Be Sympathetic To The Idea Of Religions Where People Gather In Community. They Get A Sense Of People Looking Out For Each Other. My Claim Is That We Have A Tendency To Look Out For Each Other Whether Or Not There Is A Religion Involved.

By The Way, Most Of The Light That Comes From The Sun Is Green.

From An Evolutionary Standpoint You Can't Just Wipe Everything Out And Start Over, And I Don't Think You Can Do It In The School System Either.

If We Raise A Generation Of Students Who Dont Believe In The Process Of Science, Who Think Everything That Weve Come To Know About Nature And The Universe Can Be Dismissed By A Few Sentences Translated Into English From Some Ancient Text, Youre Not Going To Continue To Innovate.

There Are Just Two People Entitled To Refer To Themselves As "we"; One Is The Editor And The Other Is The Fellow With A Tapeworm.

Not Wasting Any Water Bottles Is Good. Not Leaving The Lights On Is Good. Turning The Thermostat Down In The Winter, Up In The Summer, Is Good. But The Best Thing Any Of Us In The Developed World, Especially In The United States, Can Be Doing Is Talking About It.

I Like To Regard Myself As Someone Who's Capable Of Critical Thought, That Is To Say, Who Can Evaluate Claims.

There Are Two Questions That Get To Us All: Are We Alone In The Universe? And, Where Did We Come From? For Me, Science Provides A Much More Satisfactory Way To Seek Answers Than Does Any Religion I've Come Across. With That Said, The Universe Is Mysterious And Wonderful. It Fills Me With Reverence For Nature And Our Place Among The Stars; Our Place In Space.

There Really Is No Such Thing As Race.

Vastness Of Space

I Always Say When You See That Old Black-and-white Footage Of The Rocket On The Launch Pad And It Falls Over And Explodes, That's Because People Had Slide Rules. Not Having The Decimal Point Is A Real Drawback. You Want The Decimal Point, Take It From Me.

I've Got No Problem With Anybody's Religion. But If You Go Claiming The Earth Is Only 10,000 Years Old, That's Just Wrong.

We Should Educate More Women And Girls. Because That Is The Surest Route To Controllably, Manageably Reducing The Human Population. Educated Women Have Fewer Kids. And The Kids They Do Have Are Better Cared For And Are More Successful. As I Like To Say, It's Not One Thing That We Need To Focus On. It's Everything All At Once.
