After Sagan died in 1996, Ann Druyan was asked about her husband's skepticism about the possibility of an afterlife and whether or not she believed if she would see him again. Here's her answer:
"Every single moment that we were alive and we were together was miraculous. . . We knew we were beneficiaries of chance. . . That pure chance could be so generous and so kind. . . That we could find each other. . . That we could be together for 20 years. The way he treated me and the way I treated him, the way we took care of each other and our family, while he lived. That is so much more important than the idea I will see him someday. I don't think I'll ever see Carl again. But I saw him. We saw each other. We found each other in the cosmos, and that was wonderful."

Aww💕💕 Relationship Goals 🙌
yesss.. to appreciate life.. the moment gifted us while we have it.. because this.. now.. is all tgats ever promised..
Excuse me, I have to go hug my family.
In his dedication to his wife Ann at beginning of the book "Cosmos", Sagan writes "In the vastness of space and the immensity of time, it is my joy to share a planet and epoch with Annie." That is so beautiful :" )

“I don't want to believe.I want to know” -Carl Sagan
We all want to know what is, that is hidden. It is the 'vivid recollection' which resides in us all, as a whole, and is obvious, and disturbed by that of without, yet hinders that of which lyes within...it is both in the same yet only equal in opposite, or it cannot exist.

Hope u like, ucla speech.
I want both
The belief of the unseen of an old men and the conviction of scholar/researcher
By heart, mind and soul.
That's what I'm made from as a human
I'm not a robot nor a divine spirit
" Believe? I don't believe, I know." - Carl Jung.
I don’t believe I trust till there is better evidence.
"So who's more Humble? The scientist who looks at the universe with an open mind and accepts whatever the universe has to teach us or Somebody who says everything in this book must be considered the literal truth" - Carl Sagan
theism is philosophical, when you dumb down religious intellectuals to just 'believing what a book says' then sure it may sound idiotic, but take time to listen to St.Thomas Aquinas, other saints, etc.. you act as if Einstein, Pascal & Haeckal aren't theists.
@@Kyle-bv6di -- religion is all about BLIND Faith. That is, the belief in something you cannot see(the blind part) but you Hope is true. That is what makes belief in gods so dangerous. People will believe anything they are told with that BLIND Faith. They are indoctrinated from the very beginning to "Stop Thinking and just Believe!".
BTW, Einstein did NOT believe in a "god".
@@MasterSpade he believed in god but not personal god
It's god of spinoza
Do your simple research 😃
Anyway it's not belief it's a fact
@@nathgraza9408 -- You say "it's not belief it's a fact". What do you believe is a fact, the existence of a god? If yes, then which of the tens of thousands of gods?
Also, if your god is "Fact" and based on Facts, then do what no other god believer has ever been able to do, PROVE your god. Should be easy with those "Facts".

"extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence" - my hero, Carl Sagan
@MichaelKingsfordGray why are names so important? why are ethnicity so important?
@MichaelKingsfordGray Socrates never wrote a book for a reason. The Egyptians, The Mayans didn't call themselves the name we gave them. Names are just asterisks of our family tree. DNA doesn't represent you. DNA doesn't describe your character or your values. Identity is a misconception with labels.
@MichaelKingsfordGray Superiority complex much? OK...So you read at least one book on the theory of self...but it didn't sink in did it?
@MichaelKingsfordGray If Sagan`s name had been XNY ZOP from Wherever, Would his thoughts have been less pertinent?
@MichaelKingsfordGray I agree with you that everybody should use his/her real name.
Dr Sagan has given me more comfort than all religions can combined.
Thank God for that B-D
I could not agree more.
A few control the quirks and ruin life for all and kill all the warriors turning then against each other for their amusement when the masses could make amusement for higher profit and more fun
I know hero worship is dangerous. But I can think of no better role model to hold up as one than this man. We need more people who think this way.
Indeed. I had a near death experience and I thought about him, not Jesus or any other divine being. Maybe because he was responsible for the way I understand the universe. And for that I am forever grateful
@@araujotavares5015really?what happened in nde?may ik?
I respect this human being so much. Correction; I met him once in Chicago Airport in late 1980s, exactly in 1988. He was the king of humility. He was gracious to spend few minutes with me over a cup of coffee.
You are lucky Mohammed, many of us wish to have had that chance. best wishes
The joy I would feel if that happened to me... this man is responsible for the very way I think.
You are extremely lucky, I wish I would've met him
wow. That must have been a great experience.
Wow! I wish that had been me. I love Carl Sagan!
"The idea is to withhold belief, until there is compelling evidence.."
Such a simple idea, but so tragically ignored by almost all.
Absolutely. I'm guilty of it too, yet Sagan is someone I wholeheartedly look up to.
"...and if the universe does not comply with our predispositions, OK, then we have the wrenching obligation to accommodate to the way the universe really is."
-Carl Sagan
Kyle T. Sasloe I agree, but everybody has beliefs based on poor evidence
Kyle T. Sasloe only when it comes to religion, in every other aspect humans will usually think rationally, but not when it comes to their sky daddy
Tyler Durden Rubbish. Humans aren't driven by pure rationality. Even the scientific community starts with belief in a possibility. Einstein started off with a dream of running so fast down a hill that the stars and light began to change in appearance. where was the 'rationality in that. inspirational thought drives us. What you call 'fact' now, started that way...
It really sucks that Carl had to leave us so early.
Can you imagine how amazing he would have been on the podcast circuit?
His message is still heard thanks to the internet, science rocks!
Thankfully we have a man who is just as amazing; Neil Tyson
@@TaraZaraChara, oh yeah, the fighter
@@TaraZaraChara Ndt isnt anywhere near the genius of Carl Sagan.
Great Men were never meant to live forever🤐.
I was in Viet Nam from 1970-1973. While there I had a 30 day leave back home. On my way back to the war I found in a newstand a copy of Sagan’s “Intellegent Life in the Universe.” I read the entire book crossing the Pacific. It forever change me and how I view and try to understand man and his place in the Universe, the COSMOS. Thank you Carl.
Beautifull story. Carl inspired so many people across the world he made it really a better place for all of us.
Thank you for sharing that! Namaste!
Humanity has been greatly enriched because Carl Sagan was, for a brief moment in time, part of it.
ElectricBadgerCo LLC System is the problem 🏡 Our Life should be around these Great Qualities.....
1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can.
2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later.
3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most.
4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice.
5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life.
6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it.
7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success.
8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments.
9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences.
10, Always try to give more than you take.
Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you.
🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.
People are controlled by system why?
The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more.
Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix)
😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited. 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive. Sincerely, The Real Peacemaker against religious oppression.

He was the human who made me proud to be a human.
He was and continues to be one of the best representatives of our glorious species.
Thank you, Carl.

Teach kids more HOW to think and less of WHAT to think.
Absolutely!
***** Conformism. We have to keep status quo, though when one becomes critical of the status quo, you see how insoluble and illusory the whole thing is.
Consider for a moment we have beguiled the world over that the world is in scarcity, so we have to bullshit people to "compete" with people for paper and metal goodies so they can have some of this scarcity, to keep on going. One look up at the sky at night - assuming you're not in a city - and you see a nature in pure fucking abundance. We tell people such things in a world where that doesn't match up, and it goes far deeper than my simple example.
Our social game of egocentric tribalism is always caught in this "Us vs Them" kind of game, and so long as we are caught in this, we are permanently in conflict with one another, instead of the more sane and more plausible view of being in collaboration and cooperation with one another. Somehow it's better to have people fighting each other as if there are real "less thans" in the world instead of living each other to see the real equality one has in nature.
***** When I was in high school decades ago, I had an extremely snoopy spinster-ish old lady for my Senior year English teacher. I had always made perfect grades in English without even trying due to my voracious appetite for reading. One day she came in and told the class to write an essay entitled, "What I daydream about...".
Well, it only took a minute for me to realize in my adolescence that if I told the truth, it would be a pornographic essay that would get me expelled. So I wrote out a couple of pages about how I daydreamed about a world where people minded their own business and didn't try to live vicariously through other peoples' experiences, especially personal matters that were none of anyone elses' business to begin with. I handed it in before the class was even done, and got a nice smile for her for being so prompt.
The next day, I saw her coming down the hall at the beginning time for the class and she only had a glare for me. After she got the class started, she asked me to join her outside. When we left the class, she marched me down to the principals' office, wherein she started in about how she had never been so insulted by a student in her entire career and that I should be expelled, and some licks from the principals' paddle would be appropriate as well. I was just sitting there calmly, thinking, "holy shit, I'm a senior, and I'm going to get expelled over writing a perfectly fine paper?!?!" The principal asked for my paper, and he started to read it. I could see his face get slightly red and his facial expressions betrayed that he was doing his best to not laugh out loud, as he definitely knew this old lady's proclivity for being a bitch. He just told me to write her another paper on a different subject of my choosing and he didn't have anything more to say. She went ballistic and started sobbing and saying that I should at least get some `licks', but he wasn't having any of it. I was the schools' standout speech team member and he knew that she just got back what she deserved. So we left his office with her so mad she couldn't even speak. I still wound up with an A out of that class, so I guess she finally calmed down.
Thinking is not taught; it is thought!
Ari Bancale You can't teach people to think. You can only let them have consequences for their decisions so that they learn to do it.

“Crumbly, But Good” - Carl Sagan
Away from jokes, Sagan was one of the greatest men the 20th century has produced, his contribution will never be forgotten.
Haha, I might be one of a few hundred people in the _world_ who recognize that line from his magnificent mini-series "Cosmos: A Personal Journey." For those who don't know, he's cutting an apple pie, and talking about cutting it into smaller and smaller pieces until you get down to the molecular (or atomic?) level. His cuts are naturally imperfect, inciting him to say that line. I've seen it several times, and it always makes me hungry for apple pie. (Oh yeah, it stimulates my _mind,_ too.)
Carl Sagan is 1 of the greatest men to ever walk this earth. What a beautiful mind.
You begin to appreciate life more when you consider that nothing comes after death
Who knows??
I disagree. If there is only oblivion after life, then life is a meaningless aberration.
@William Shakespeare i think that smart poeple loves theire creator, makes the difference between bad and good, enjoying their living and prepared for the idea of death...it's my opinion, what do you think?
@William Shakespeare is it just your opinion or you are one of them?
@William Shakespeare poetic answer
Carl, spoke poetry in the prose of science and science gave his voice to eternity.
Well said! Namaste!
Today, Perseverance Rover landed over Mars. A good time to remember Carl Sagan 💜
Carl Sagan was not an atheist, he was not a believer, he was a sceptic with a lot of respect for science. A humble guy with true passion for knowledge.
I am 51, I grew up listening to Carl Sagan. He helped to shape my thinking. Thank you Carl Sagan.
Thank you Carl Sagan, I was raised a Catholic but at age 11 I saw Cosmos and it got me questioning things, now I am 32 and have been an amateur astronomer ever since and broke free from the shackles of Religion. All 4 of my nephews were also raised Catholic but by age 8 they were all non religious thanks to me, I taught them to have question, doubt and be skeptic.
I just discovered Sagan and N.D. Tyson and I want to be an amateur astronomer as well! Good luck in your journey🔭
I really miss Carl and his words of wisdom. What a great man!
When I was growing up, he was the kind of guest they’d have on night time talk shows. How the level of discourse has fallen! God how I miss Carl. Thanks for this.
2:41 - "Science is after the way the universe really is and not what makes us feel good"
+jimmy bluebos This short but extremely accurate sentence beautifully sums up the reason why most people choose to ignore the scientific method and rather indulge in superstition. Yes, I said choose. Because it is a choice, unconcious or not.
+Adnan R. Anyone can understand someone choosing to go down the more easier and more happy ignorance route rather than the challenging voyage of discovery. But that first route seems to be the loudest in today's world and always seeking to block the second.
I can't really understand that. But then I've always been the curious sort, and don't find discovery to be "challenging".
Beautiful.
+jursamaj simply put, science doesn't focus on before the universe was created. no deity nor supernatural being that created us. science doesn't tell us that there is an afterlife either so it doesn't give grieving people a piece of happiness to look forward to- it doesn't give anyone a reason to feel good per say. science is just the evolution of thought as objectively as possible and it's the here and now. science is a way of thinking that begs us to ask questions about the universe we interact with everyday
Carl Sagan indirectly taught me how to observe and think critically
It’s a beautiful thing to hear the great minds of our time on video, just imagine how much wisdom we could of had if we interviewed Isaac Newton or Galileo. Carl Sagan is the voice of humanity! Truly miss him!
Same here. I miss him as well
Great point, never thought about interviewing Newton or Galileo. I am glad we have capabilities to document achievements of people such as Sagan and that they are accessible in a split of a second for free or almost free. I wish more people exercised this ability daily.
Carl Sagan and his words will live in my heart and mind until the day I die.
He really was a gift to humanity.
We miss you Carl.
The world needs him
+siliconstate We do have Neil degrass Tyson.
+Garreth o'Brien Yup Neil is awesome, another person directly influenced by Carl.
The world needs *you*, don't depend on one man. I agree tho, Carl was the man.
Thanks, you're right of course. I just mean we need more people to inspire fertile minds, just like he did.
Emotionally intelligent & visionary man. Human race needs that kind of people to survive.
They are out there. Their voices are just being drowned out by the screamers and tantrum-throwers everybody seems to enjoy. From the Kardashians to Trump, what a waste of energy to follow anything they do.
+Philipp Markolin a lot of people like to be sheeple
All those scientists are kind of the "great philosophers" of our times but people refuse to listen. We'd need a lot more people like him as connectors between science and the people.
spontanp We have them in large numbers. They just need that extra push.
How do you know he's emotionally intelligent?
Christmas 2020, this is the messages we all need.
Humility and inquisitiveness, two words which fits perfectly with this wonderful human being.
"You imagine missing it all and suddenly it's so much more precious"

The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more.
Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix)
😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited. 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive. Sincerely, The Real Peacemaker against religious oppression.

Man, I miss Sagan like I miss my grandfather.
We all do 😓
Just another spin doctor for the religion of science. They question everything except science itself. A lot of scientists & followers are as blind as priests and the masses. Priests ask the people for donations and scientists ask the government. Lol.
Right on Ryan Smith!! I'm not anti-science, I'm just anti-smug, douche scientists who pretend to know more than they actually do.
@@johnc7801 and what gives you clearance to talk about scientists in such a way? I'm guessing it's because you know way more than anyone else? Either that or you believe in some sort of diety, so science, discovery and honesty scares and offends you deeply.
my late son's name is Sagan. so its just odd you wrote referring to carl by last name and referencing someone else dear whos passed away as well. my son was 2 mo's old. unexplained sids. his birthday was exactly a week ago. his first. 6/16/2018-9/7/2018🌠💓🌌 SJF
If Carl believed in such things I would say, he had a beautiful soul. ❤
Soul ???? Are you a fairy religion 😂
@@nathgraza9408 Well, AFAIK, souls was the ancient concept of "what makes life animated". So it's not necessarily a religious concept. Just happens that the word keep attached to religious explainations of that concept, but through science and reason we can reach others (evidence based) explainations of the edges of what makes life animated.
@@EloySerra 😆
@@EloySerra Well said. Namaste!
This is emotionally powerful. Carl Sagan was a brilliant man. He is sorely missed.
On life after death. In a South Park episode, Cartman was visiting the bedside of a dying friend who asked, "Cartman, what's it like after I die?". Cartman thought for a moment and replied, "I think it's a lot like before you were born."

Years later, and I still watch this video, especially when I'm sad or feeling like I'm alone in my thoughts. This guy got it. He understood it 😭
It wouldn't be so sad if not for the whale sounds at the end and the music. Beautiful video and conversation, but it is the shame we are killing the oceans and bringing whales to the verge of extinction...
@@pavel9652 I'm not talking about the video when I mention sadness. The music and the sounds help. In a way, they make me a bit more calm than sad. But think about it, at least from my perspective, when I watch this, I don't feel alone in thinking that humans can be more and do more as a collective. When you think it, you feel alone or like someone that's alienated because a lot of people don't care, but hearing Carl speak his mind in general is so refreshing in a sea of hatred and selfishness in the modern world. That's why I constantly return to this video honestly. It calms me down and reminds me that people like Carl are out there
@@shaq-sloth I find great solace in this video as well.
Me too.
Yes indeed, I find peace listening to Carl.
His voice is still guiding us and he's been gone almost 30 years. He lives on in each of us...*that* is a hero.
No one else inspired me as much as Sagan

These are not mutually exclusive concepts. He promoted integrated sensibilities, bringing all to bear in our quest, achievement and hunger for knowledge.
The man is incapable of common sense. His common sense is "I don't believe in chemistry, no one has explained it to me in a video or UA-cam comment in 10 or 15 minutes so that I understand it completely and intuitively, therefore chemistry does not exist.

"The shear joy of being alive" What wisdom, what a great man he was!
Thank you, Carl Sagan, for sharing the love, truth, and beauty of our universe.
What a man, i dearly look up to Carl, he's a marvellous human being with a beautiful mind! Thanks for bringing me out of the dark pits of extended superstition & into the realm of rationality & science, i'll be forever in your debt! I was 4 when he passed away, it would be another 16 years till i came to know of his work. I remember watching his *"Cosmos: A Personal Voyage series"* & being so inspired & enthralled by the way he explained the universe & i've been hooked ever since! HAIL SAGAN!

interesting, auto-edit just changed Sagan into Satan, wtf? LOL
True. And like pagans , there should evolve a religion called “Sagans”.
One of the best communicator of all time!!
Every day I hear Carl’s voice or read something he said, I miss him and think, he’s always giving us one, last, perfect day.
Idk how but this cures some of my anxiety.
Black Coffee yes
Reading Carl Sagan helped end my multi-year depression.
Hope, wisdom and wide eyed wonder.
He reminds you that there is a rational way
Chris System is the problem 🏡 Our Life should be around these Great Qualities.....
1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can.
2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later.
3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most.
4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice.
5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life.
6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it.
7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success.
8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments.
9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences.
10, Always try to give more than you take.
Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you.
🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.
People are controlled by system why?
The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on.

Have you every heard about Technotheism?
Of course, that is not true. There are polytheists, e.g. in Nepal and India. Even the Bible indicates multiple gods. Muslims treat the concept of Muhammed like a god. (Edit after several comments - 32% of Muslims in Britain thought violence may be justifiable sometimes against people who draw Mohammed and 78% were offended by such drawings www.bbc.com/news/uk-31293196)
@@scienceexplains302 I wouldn't go so far as saying that Muhammed is treated like a God in islam. There is a difference between respecting someone and actually comparing to god. I don't know of any muslims that treats him like god. He is high up there..but God has different position entirely.
@@bigdaddy2372 So why kill people (I realize that only a small minority may support this) for drawing Mohammed?
@@scienceexplains302 it's much deeper than that..there are different groups..usually ur not supposed to draw any religious figure whatsoever, its prohibited. But there are those who does it and it comes to which group of thought you follow..

Carl Sagan: one of my favourite people of all time. Miss him so much!!!
teared up when he was talking about his parents
Seriously, that hit me so hard...
Alex_Klandy I held it till that video where he talked about how hard it'd be for his family if he passed.. Sagan was such a gentle soul. So intellectual yet so gentle...
Brandon J Okay BJ
Adam J yeah you are right. But may be some of us love existence and all this experience so much that we feel sad to know its going to end. May be you are not built that way and thats ok. Thats all.
you are a beautiful soul yourself.
Carl Sagan and even Neal deGrasse Tyson seriously make me contemplate my entire life plan. I am inspired by these people to discover and have an impact on the human race. People are so focused on entertainment and self-interest such as social networking, partying, and making money. This doesn't make me proud or hopeful in my humanity. We need to spend more time educating the public, ourselves, and pulling together for the advancement of our race and discovery of new technology and sustainability.
+Dustin Fowler Then you definitely need to read this: waitbutwhy.com/2015/11/the-cook-and-the-chef-musks-secret-sauce.html It's long, but very much worth it! :)
It's just what I needed to get of my chst today as well :)
Try to be the hopeful change!
Rational carl segan would say that.
Sure education and knowledge is great. But living life solely for the purpose of spreading knowledge is pretty gay. Live life for life, enjoy it and make the most out of it. You dont have to be a fucking robot.
Neil doesn't come close to Carl!
Relevant message in this interview: Be humble when confronting the unknowns, adopts an attitude of eager to learn, and maybe a new discovery is at front of you. Inspiration for decoding the complexities of our surroundings and also our own nature (mind/brain).
One of the greatest thinkers of our time, he has been missed. Thank you Carl for all you taught me and the world.
Carl Sagan. Poet of science and truth. One of my favourite humans ever. Thankyou.
Looking at these videos and others like it I cannot help but become infuriated at all the time our species has wasted fighting each other over unprovable beliefs, creating power struggles, wars, class systems, and doing harm to each other so that those on top can stay on top, when we could be working together as one species (which is what we are) to create a sustainable planet, feed and educate every human, and explore the cosmos together. If aliens have been watching they must think we are a bunch of fucking morons. All this technology and we are still primitive as ever. We need to wake the fuck up. Before it's too late.
I would like that way of thinking, probably a lot of people too. But there are some intrinsic properties of the human nature that limit us like for example competition, selfishness that are coded in our brain shaped by evolution so deep in our unconscious that only few people are able to dismiss in a certain way.
amino fuel agreed
Tyler Durden Wouldn't that be great.. Some day, maybe! I try to be hopeful :) Certain recent developments are getting my hopes up, but it will be a long time before humans can shake off the hardcoded behaviours formed over thousands of years. Let's hope humans will get it together before humans destroy themselves.
Btw, i'm in absolute awe of Carl Sagan and other scientists alike. They are of the rare breed who live on another, higher level of conciousness - at least that's what I choose to believe.
***** lol please do it, beat the fuck out of me!!! beat me hard!!!!
+Tyler Durden I think it's also insane to believe that alien civilizations are socially better than us. I bet from a survey of advanced alien civilizations (whenever we discover them) would show that they do have leaders much like Thanos (yes, I'm a Marvel fan). You shouldn't get so emotionally charged to where it clouds your honesty. I think people tend to do that too much.
One of the best videos on the whole internet .......everyone should watch this .....to learn about human ignorance, ideologies, unscientific religions and the corruption of the human mind ......we are here because we were curious ......we are progressive because of the innovation and inventions that helped us ........the universe is a complex thing......we are apart of it , come from it, therefore it is our duty to understand it and be curious always and be humble by it.
Everyone please ......keep learning and be curious just like when you were a child ......achieve what you are capable of doing in this short life we have, worry about what you can do ...not what you can't do ......as a human being it is because you are part of a bigger picture of just being a part of life with all the other life on this planet.........don't take life for granted.....it's miraculous when you think about it on a larger scale.
This man's work and life were an inspiration to Millions.
I'm going to show this video to my children.
+Nishant Pillai Why is having kids a bad idea?
***** While I really appreciate the open dialogue happening here, and I definitely agree with you, I can't help but feel your comment is somewhat unwarranted. In my comment, I simply said that I'd show this video to my children. I don't have children, but when I do one day, I will show them this wisdom, so they can be better prepared and make fewer of humanity's past mistakes. I actually already plan on adopting children, as well as having several naturally. It is a beautiful thing to raise and care for children, but only - as you say - when prepared.
***** You miss the entire point. We are biologically programmed to want to have kids, but there is a much more important reason to do it. It is a reason that most people understand even if it doesn't occur to them to say it. To have a child is to give a gift that you cannot give to anyone who exists, because the gift is existence. We have children so they can be born and exist, the same way we got to be born and exist.
***** Life can be ugly, but it is better to have life than not to have it. A person who is living can choose not to continue. A person who doesn't exist cannot choose to exist, because they don't exist.
A nurturing environment is over-rated. Many people exist today who didn't have spoiled, sheltered lives as children and who do not regret being born. Some of them had down-right terrible lives. Who are you to speak for the unborn?
I don't feel any need to debate the word "gift" with you. It seems like a gift to me, but it really doesn't matter what you call it.
+Nishant Pillai I am not speaking for anyone. No one is forced to be alive. Like I said, we can all exit whenever we want. The same is not true for being born. It doesn't really matter if anyone ever figures out interstellar travel. It's all just a ride. We have to make the best of life while we are here. I don't know what I would do if I were in Pakistan, and it doesn't matter because I am not. Nobody knows what they would do or think in a certain circumstance unless they are actually in it.
Why are people complaining about the whale songs at the end and calling it "weird" and asking for its removal? That is what made the video complete to me. Nothing "weird" about the end, what's weird is people complaining about nature on a nature video.
Whoop! Ah Aaaaah.
Carl Sagan’s wisdom has always been undervalued. There's so much truth in his words.
How could you ever be tired of listening to Carl?
my eyes water when I so much as hear his voice. the overwhelming question I somberly ask myself: "how can I inspire someone the way he inspires me?" powerful stuff.
+Kevin Ross He touches something so deep inside, you cant help but feel it. Makes me sad everytime I think how he could have inspired so many more people today when they need it the most.
+Jay Sandesara He can and does. As does science itself. A single man cannot bear the burden of informing all of us, we have to do it ourselves. With a bit of inspiration, of course. But we have to inspire one another.
You just have the be the most real and true human you can be
What a beautiful mind
Thank you!
Carl was instrumental in my deconversion from my Christian faith. I thank him every day through my actions as a secular humanist!
I love his voice so badly, it shocks my how much I wanna this man to be alive today.
This man is so humble, yet so smart and inspirational. I wish I could've had the privilege to meet him. He really is my hero and person who is shaping me as a person. Thank you, Carl. I wish we had more people like you on this precious Earth you loved and advocated for so much.
JohnyBoy take a look on jellytree.eu . It's a new blog which is also a lot about philosophy, thoughts and so on. Really interesting because there are many authors and even you can write an anymous article there.
Carl has such a way of talking... I could always listen to him explain things...
I love Carl Sagan RIP. I'd have listened to every minute of him without the loud music covering his speaking. His words were like music to our ears. The first book I bought my mother was Cosmos. He was one in a billion. 😄☮
THANK YOU CARL SAGAN FOR THE INSPIRATION
"Belief when there is no evidence is a mistake."
What if there is an evidence and u choose to ignore it intentionally
@@masoodahmedansari6923 which belief have evidence bro?
@@mahender1 so how it can a mistake if there is no evidence
For a scientific guru he sure made a big mistake dismissing God
@@masoodahmedansari6923 agreed! Right on the money
"We don't know if it's there, we don't know if it's not there, let's look."
A man of explicit class, debonair and grit. Once upon a time, there was humanity --Sir, thank you!
His words never get old may he rest in peace
Even without his knowledge and wisdom, this man's voice is hypnotic.
I would give my life away if that would bring a person such as Carl Sagan back to life...
GamingFunz14 Why? What was Carl Sagan capable of that you're not? There will only ever be one Carl Sagan, and only one of you also; so why not instead help carry the collective torch for humankind in your time just as he did in his time? This Universe doesn't imbue us with any value upon our arrival, and we'll only ever leave it with that which we created for ourselves
Slothin'Games You make a good point.My point is that Carl Sagan's influence to the scientific community was very positive and if he was still alive his influence may have reached sociopolitical levels and his wisedom work as a guide though the scientifically and politically controversial times we are going through.I believe the future of mankind is more important than my life and I would gladly give mine to ensure a better future.
If it costs 2 I'll gladly chip in mine too for that cause!
We need more people like Carl Sagan. He was truly one of a kind. I wish I knew about him a long time ago. He really put life in perspective.
Hello there. “We r All stardust”. Thank u Carl.
Sagan is one we should all aspire to be.
I don't understand how you could make it through this without tears....
Balls.
Dr Carl,
Thank you for inspiring a love of science, history, humanity and the cosmos.
My grandmother had Cosmos (and others) at her flat and I would just drool over it as a pre teen. Eventually, she told me to take it home because I was there to see her, not read books, which was fair enough and I could then fully absorb it and reread at leisure. Job well done Carl :)
Irreplaceable ❤❤ the people today...do not have my attention...CS had my complete attention... he was mesmerizing...a Cosmic man of all time!
@1:58 where Sagan refers to Thomas Jefferson. The people have to be educated otherwise we don't run the government. The government runs us. Truer words were never spoken. In a plutocracy, which is effectively what we have now, the key is to keep the public in ignorance.
David Tucker
So you mean the government has done a damned good job of keeping us ignorant OR the government has done a damned good job of TRYING to keep us ignorant? Two totally different things. Please explain.
@@dr.jamesolack8504 look up evil of campaign money, the evil of the supreme court and the distortion of American elections. If you look hard enough you'll find that the system is made today supports the rich and the politicians to keep them in power.
In order to do that you need a ignorant society. Look how expensive college is and how both Democrat and Republican try too limit their public speaking about education. How they rarely ever mention it. Sometimes they even ruin the education system. USA used to be in the top ten now look at the education system today. It's pathetic.
@@thoughtaddict2739 Well said. I never felt that there was much of a difference between the Dems and Repubs. Both parties are controlled by powerful interests (media, high finance/big business, military industrial complex) that work to preserve their own power. They like Washington just the way it is. Nothing gets done they don't like, and none of them are held accountable. And now we have an imbecile in office who feels that pseudoscience is preferable to real science (what can one expect when said imbecile thinks the moon is a part of Mars??), and has his followers believing in conspiracy theories. You are right, we have already fallen too far as a country. Especially when it comes to STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics), we are getting our proverbial asses kicked. That does not bode well for our future at all.
Dr. Carl Sagan, the science teacher I wish we'd ALL had.
Carl Sagan always tops my list when I think of the question, “if you could have lunch with anyone, alive or dead, who would it be?” What a fascinating, eloquent, insightful, brilliant human being.
My favorite human being that ever existed
Diego A. Morera System is the problem 🏡 Our Life should be around these Great Qualities.....
1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can.
2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later.
3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most.
4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice.
5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life.
6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it.
7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success.
8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments.
9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences.
10, Always try to give more than you take.
Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you.
🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.
People are controlled by system why?
The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more.
Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix)
😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited. 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive. Sincerely, The Real Peacemaker against religious oppression.

Elon Musk comes close.
Carl Sagan was so humble and divine.
@@aclassmedicine3306 why? just a guy with a bunch of money
If I could revive a person it would be sagan
