Neil deGrasse Tyson: Science and Religion Are Not ‘Reconcilable,’ So Stop Trying

[Everythingg]

well let's conduct an experiment friend?
why don't you say the same thing and I will tell you if I still think it is true

Too late....

 

[OsO]

science and organized religion are definitely irreconcilable.

what we need to focus on is combining the strengths and weakness of science and SPIRITUALITY... cause they're yin and yang of the same thang

You know, one of the signs that the second coming, is that the stars will fall out of the sky and land on Earth. To even write that means you don’t know what those things are. You have no concept of what the actual universe is.

CAN'T REALLY ARGUE WITH THAT, BROTHER! IF A STAR GOT ANYWHERE NEAR EARTH, IT WOULD COMPLETELY CONSUME OUR PLANET, DUDE!

Science and religion are reconcilable as long as you stretch the parameters of religion and make it vague and metaphorical enough so that it basically means nothing outside of a personal branding or cultural identifier.

The facts of history don't support your opinion or Neil's.

Ask Daniel Dennett and Voltaire.​

 

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

same thing NDT said.

Religious people didn't start with all that "poetry" shyt until they realized it was clearly false.

Considering that Genesis (for instance) is a didactic poem, I'd say your opinion and Neil's are both born of ignorance of the facts.

Criticize texts for being something they weren't written to be, brehs.​

DON'T USE SANTA'S NAME IN VAIN, BROTHER!

so your position is that the bible is a book of poetry.............

I'll take my chances believing in the most high while at the same time not ignoring the benefits of science. Being a balanced individual is great.
