- Astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson talks to Ari Melber about applying a “cosmic perspective” to many current problems on earth, drawing on his new book, "Starry Messenger: Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization." Tyson also discusses the difference between personal and religious “truths,” and the kind of objective truth that undergirds science and valid policy making. This digital exclusive is a full interview with Tyson. Excerpts aired on "The Beat with Ari Melber" on MSNBC.

One of the most honest thing anyone can say: "I don't know". Neil gets it.
That's bc he's a real scientist
But if you say "I don't know if this experimental vaccine is safe or effective " you are not trusting science and objective truth. Right.
@@angh18 theology doctor?, wtf
One of my favorite honest answers is: Not a Clue.
@@JP-xd6fm its like a phd in philosophy - understanding way of life across parts of the world and what contributed to it
I love the amount of times he says “I don’t know.” Too many people are too certain about their beliefs and personal truths and can’t fathom those 3 words. A first step to understanding science is saying “I don’t know”.
Accepting when we don't know something or when we are/were wrong is almost a super power
A great deal of people can't utter the words "I don't know." Not knowing is nothing more than learning something new for one's self... ENHANCED KNOWLEDGE..
He's doing his best to not be biased and he clearly understands that. Science shouldn't have biases.
@@Ap_twsh certainly…the scientific process is meant for you to be able to check your biases.
Its the basis of learning, the more that you know the more you realize there is Soooo much more to learn. Ask questions of others, and yourself and be curious and read more and learn more and be amazed.
“The problem with the world is that intelligent people are full of doubts while the stupid ones are full of confidence” Charles Bukowski
Yes, The Dunning-Kruger Effect is all around us.
You mean the stupid ones are confident of being really stupid!
This might rather be a quote from Bertrand Russell to my knowledge. Also, Mark Twain said « it is easier to fool people than convince them they have been fooled ».
I think it is a quote from Bertrand Russell instead but it is so true anyway.
We like people of principle, but let them have their own way, and they become capable of the most heinous crimes. Then, they defend themselves for being principled? I don't get it.
It was my 7th year of grade school where I had a science teacher who tested us (his students) on the scientific method after lengthy lessons on the subject. It has stuck with me my entire life. This subject was revisited again in our ninth grade science class, just to be sure we got it the first time. That lesson is lost I think in public schools these days.
Not just that. In some school districts, and in some cases whole states, certain science is omitted purposely. And in others as well as those same ones, they've managed to put creationism on the same plane as science.
@@gryjffrs We're on a slippery slope... A hundred (probably sooner) years from now, Chrisitanity is going to be as extreme in some places as the Islamic interpretation of the Taliban. And America is making huge steps at being the catalyst in that process. The conservatives in America are really starting to get extreme. And not because of faith, but because of "the science" that is hurting their wallets. We are in a fase where there are drastic steps being made and planned because of climate change. Debunking and discrediting everything "science" works for them, and keeps them rich. Religion is just one of the sticks they are hitting with, and that stick is getting bigger and bigger.
This is why I get so frustrated and confused with how people "research" and take in info these days. I'm like, didn't they learn about the scientific method in school? Didn't we all learn that? And not just that but how to research and site sources and what can be considered a legit source. I'm curious if they did and they just aren't using it right/forgot or never properly learned
Wake me when the UN/IPCC starts to abide by the Scientific Method. That will be a first.
@@gryjffrs Absolutely. Many of those states are in the South and Midwest. Many students go to religious school where evolution is never mentioned or creationism is taught as if it were legitimate science. Even in the public schools evolution is sometimes omitted entirely, is taught poorly, or is placed at the end of textbooks where the class is unlikely to get to it before the end of the semester. College-trained teachers or even some professors are afraid to mention evolution or are compelled to lie about it for fear of losing their jobs. Rational foreigners must be gasping in horror at such an enormous attack on reason in a supposedly modern nation.
What a joy to listen to two people having a HEALTHY discussion that I can listen to and want to return to and think about. Wonderful!
And not "we gotta run an advertisement every 2 minutes.
Reminds of the pre 2016. Then the MORONS were unleashed
Seriously, I am so sick of MAGA's anti intellectualism.
I saved it under Psychology.
Hard to encounter on youtube or anywhere these days indeed. Ted Talks is a place where some interesting ideas can also be found, and world science festival
The only thing I remember from my college philosophy course was not something in the curriculum, but something the professor would say on his own atleast once per class.
"There are three sides to every story: The way you see it, the way I see it, and quite possibly the way it really is." One of the most influential sentences I have ever heard in terms of how I personally view the world and my interactions with others.
The old legal doctrine " there are 3 truths. Your side, my side & what actually happened"
Something that is true in every encounter between 2 or more people.
One of my mentors would say there are three levels of meaning: First, My story - the story of personal anecdote. Where I've been and done and came to be. Second, Our story - the story of the group. For example, he would say that for Christians that means the story of a little Jewish people that's anecdotal for everything else. Also, that unfortunately, the group level is as far as most of us go and we tend to get lost there. We are always fighting over group things. Finally, the third level - where everything is true. That there is a meta-narrative where everything belongs. It provides context and validates the first two levels. It's where you can't be better than anyone else. He would end by saying if there is no THE story then it's all just chaos.
Your side ...my side...and the truth❤️
I love listening to his voice so assuring. He's knowledgeable and knows how to talk to everyone. Never get tired of hearing him.
Neil, like Carl Sagan before him, is an inspiration to listen to. Not only can he explain complex ideas in simple terms, he leaves you wanting to know more.
He leaves me wanting him to stfu or stick with astro physics.
He' s a know it all narcissist.
Exactly!
i certainly would not compare this guy to carl sagan !
@@justaguy-69 you are clinging on to a nostalgic past ....we have moved on from Carl Sagan ..
NdT is here now ...Lets enjoy what he brings to the table ...
No one can be compared to anyone else anyway ...
@@jeremyvanbriesies1940 he is just too arrogant to be the spokesperson that carl sagan was, and he is such a skeptic. we need someone who opens their mind to the possibilities out there not a know it all who poo-poo's others.
"The definition of genius is taking the complex and making it simple." Albert Einstein
Thanks Ari and Mr.Tyson!
Einstein, who gave us one of the most profound and simplest equations ever. E=mc2
I believe that's DR. Tyson! 🙂
This is the kind of person you always dream of having as a college professor. That educator that cannot only TEACH you, but can also INSPRE you, and get you to see the world in different ways.
I love listening to Professor DeGrasse Tyson. What a gift to us. Women's section in the newspaper...perfect example of ethical and moral constructs that evolve in our world.
Stardust indeed.
They gave him time to explain his thoughts. Great interview.
Man is able to see the Andromeda Galaxy, 2 million light years away. Yet, some can't see what's in front of them.
What is that?
@psycho supposeiam you can do both 😂
Its called can't see for looking
What's that saying, "unable to see but five minutes in front of our faces", I believe. Spot on.
Humanity has never been good at looking at itself and admitting we're not perfect. Or that what we believe may not be right. Thinking critically about ourselves and what we do to our fellow man is not something our race has ever been good at. Admitting you are wrong, especially about your world views, means the world is not what they think, and that can be terrifying to many people. Best to BELIEVE you are right, even if what you believe in is absolutely ridiculous, then to admit you have no idea.
This man had a huge impact on my life.
I quote loosely,
"One of the biggest challenges in life is to know enough about a subject to think you're right but an even bigger challenge is to know enough about it too know you're wrong "
A few years back I had many of my personal beliefs challenged. Lifelong core beliefs which I taught and were my career. As more and more evidence presented itself I felt completely lost and confused. I spent a few more years in that position and tried like mad to prove my findings wrong . The facts were undeniable.
At the perfect time his words hit me like a ton of bricks, giving me the courage to accept the facts and the strength to let go of my false beliefs. He didn't mention it would be easy .
Congratulations on your courage and perseverance, Michael!
Bravo!
May I ask what those beliefs were?
Glad you brought that up. I for one would like to discuss the concept of the light year. 5.8 trillion miles and they have the nerve to tell us they can see beyond 3 or four without contradicting the revolutions of galaxies, and the fact that the light their raving about took 20-25 years to get here??? The universe is vast and constantly moving, how can you detect light that’s being sent from a different place than when it was sent out??? Stationary is not a blanket concept when you talk about cosmic entities that far apart and constantly moving. 🤔🤔🤔🤔😲😲😲😲🤔🤔🤔
@@derrickbailey5167 that's a good question. It's the same concept as if you were a quarterback running and threw a football. The ball will reach its target in the trajectory from which you threw it even though you are no longer where you were when you threw it. The target player is our eyes/ monitoring instrument. The football would be the photon or particle of light moving through space. But, you are correct in that the object giving off light itself, or the quarterback, is indeed no longer truly where we are pointing when the photon was initially thrown.
Thank you so much for this interview. Recent popular messages about "science" have been so incredibly off that badly conceived policies get a free pass. Dr. DeGrasse Tyson is one of the most entertaining intellectuals around. We took his Masterclass, my teen and I, so she would not be so easily fooled.
I could honestly just listen to Neil DeGrasse Tyson talk about the cosmos for hours, the view of the universe he has and the passion with which he expresses it is infectious!
That's literally the show "Cosmos", its so good!!
@@samriver3677 or his StarTalk podcast
He is an expert in his field of study. The common man sometimes have no idea what the man is saying because they're not educated in that science.
I'm with you
I literally have! So many videos of him on UA-cam! So much education!
The Arkansas school I attended until I joined the navy definitely taught the scientific method as well as the accepted facts of the time. One of the precepts I took away from school was to question everything. Tyson is a light in the darkness of today.
I grew up Methodist. Everything is done a certain way in that religion and there are tenets that are taught and adhered to by the governing board of the church in terms of what is accepted and taught in the church. We had a pastor in my church that was there from the time I was about 9 until I was about 15. The first thing he did was sit down with the youth and tell us to always ask questions and seek our own answers, and not to believe things just because our parents told us to, or our teachers told us to, or because a pastor told us to. He literally said, “if you are only a Christian because your parents told you that you are, then you’re doing yourself a disservice.”
I was in my car listening to MSNBC and I remember this interview. It's so refreshing to hear these two men talk in this way.
I'll never forget the first time I heard the term "Objective Truth". My new favorite term.
I love that man. Just listening to him is such a joy. He's knowledgeable without being pompous, and he has such a wonderful sense of humor!
You should really listen to his podcast, it's a delight.
I'm sure he knows what a woman is. You only like him being used by the left. Neil isn't destroying Republicans here. He's actually supporting them.
All the "science and facts" about covid have changed.
You obviously don’t know him..he’s extremely arrogant
@@Niles-Guy And that is your obvious perspective. 😉
@@Niles-Guy Oh, in that case I'm guessing you personally know him? Can I get his phone number, I wanna buy him a drink and talk astrophysics.
My child hood idol was Carl Sagan and Neil met him and was inspired by him too, we are all made of star stuff. Powerful . Much love to all reading this ❤️🌏
Dork.
Right back at you.
Being able to explain astrophysics to non-physicists was one of the things that made Carl Sagan such a great physicist -- not just how much he knew. Niel is one of the few who has topped even Carl Sagan with both his knowledge and his neighborly screen presence.
I hope we get to see more guests like Niel DeGrasse Tyson in the future -- and it would be great for him to come back and talk about the latest discoveries in science.
The James Webb telescope is one of humanity's greatest achievements. We need to hear more about it!
THAT would be a television series that would motivate me to get cable again, rather than just wait for things to be streamed by others
This is such a timely comment. The Webb Scope has shifted astrophysics into stardrive.
The announcement of successful fusion is another milestone that gets a shrug from the public.
@ Jack StrubbleThen look for the series , Cosmos that was originally hosted by Carl Sagan then Neil Degrass Tyson. It is worth the search.
@@richiejohnson That is because "it will not be ready for another ten years", which has been stated by the Fusion folks for decades. Yes, we are succeeding, but the scale matters as well. Gigawatts of power is the goal, and that will have to be reached so that these 'power plants' can be installed around the world. So even the science community shrugs on that one. Eagerly awaiting, however.
@@cosmicraysshotsintothelight Hey, the nuclear age began with girls painting watch faces with radium. 🤓
I absolutely love the fact that Neil is able to laugh at himself for his loss of words (propaganda) and asks, “help me out here,” and then continue on with his point.
This happens to me all the time. It’s comforting to me to see a respected scholar do the same.
“What did Hitler do….?” “Uhhhh…..a lot!”
Thats self confidence. When I make fun of myself I laugh with others. We are human.
In other words, he successfully reflected yourself to you and that’s why you like him. Congrats! One narcissist gains the approval of another, and the grift goes on.
As fun and informative as this interview was, that was the most charming part IMO. Even brilliant people need help every now and then.
@@williamburnam4693 is ad homs all you have? Nothing in this video was incorrect
He doesn't want us to think "about" anything, he just wants people to THINK.
Are you nuts? It is impossible to actually think without thinking of some thing, even if it's completely abstract. Like how its impossible for a virgin to give birth, and impossible to come back to life after death.
And there you have it... This comment wins the comment section! Cheers
Yeah so the title of the video doesn’t make sense

agreed!
Agree.... I enjoy his clarity of thought and expression
I love NDGT. What a spectacularly good interview! Nice work Ari.
Thank you ari for having Neil as a guest talking about this subject
Science gets more accurate with it's evolution and time- so what they deem 'the truth' now is dubious over time.
Yes, Tyson is always hilarious, even if some people actually believe his science misinformation.

@@ronswanson2029 that’s a metric that means literally nothing. No one owes anyone difference to their political ideology or anything else you happen to believe, the idea that you should just try to avoid offending anyone is the exact thing Republicans have claimed to be mad about all the time.

Neil is the kind of person I would love to sit and have a long conversation. This gentleman is a gift of intellect, insight, love and compassion of which there are very few left in this world. Thank you Ari for giving me a break from the everyday political hate so that I can enjoy this interview.
Neil is a gift. He's using his popularity to tell people to think for themselves. It's a message that hard to get through in modern times because we don't have that mindset and the powers that be don't even want you educated.
“I love the uneducated” was such an eye opening and heartbreaking thing to hear from those who are chosen to lead.
@@caseypardini9191 the saddest is the ones uneducated think they have a brain lol
There will never be another Carl Sagan, but I feel like Neil is the worthy successor we need right now.
@@FectacularSpail Totally agree. Neil's a true genius in my book. So was Carl.
@@FectacularSpail both great in their own each way

So do you believe in God since you pray,😊
This is one of the best segments MSNBC offers-- what a treat! As usual, Melber not only has read the book, but his questions lead the author to his best answers.
Although presenting himself as a journalist and attorney, Melber has an ad libitum gift transforming his interviews with electricity and clarity.
Decades ago, the late great Carl Sagan warned everyone about the current climate crisis. He was ignored, of course.
What is the point in lying on the internet?😂😂😂
Carl Sagan wasn't ignored. The folks that could recognize the truths he was offering listened and remembered. The folks that heard what he had to say and realized it posed a financial threat to their way of life, or profit driven motives also heard and remembered what he had said and knew it to be true. They then set out to convert all those in between to believe it was untrue. Sagan wasn't ignored, he was just not heard first hand by enough of the population.
Yes he told us we would be victims of magical thinking, religion, astrology and unscientific beliefs

Thanks for having Neal on, he's a nice stiff drink of reality.
When ideology Trumps logic... any "reality" shaped by a system of ethics subverted by greed and the pursuit of personal power, is as worthless as the fiat currency on which it runs.
It brings me joy to listen to Neil Degrasse Tyson talk about, space and humans ...and everything else between. Tyson can really take your mind on a journey of it's own. ❤️👍😀
Yes!!🌏
Thank-You for airing some Neil, Ari. That was pure joy. 😊🌱
I love how Dr. deGrass Tyson take science so deep so as to reach the level of philosophy and spirituality.
Neil is one of my favorite humans; awesome to see him on your show, Ari
How do you not love this guy??? Opening our eyes to both the smallness and infinity contained within each and everyone of us. We are all the same inside.
“The vocab words are in bold” I felt that
I have to give Neil a ton of credit, I expect to get bored of listening to him explain the same things, but I don't. He changes his explanations for his audience, so listening to him speak to someone different always means hearing him describe concepts in a new way, and that keeps it interesting. Also love how he used scientific methodology to humbly dismantle body-image and disability stigmata.
To have Neil DeGrasse Tyson share some of his knowledge and wisdom with us on your Show, is truly a great gift. Thank you, Ari.
Yes indeed! Ari and Neil, two great thinkers!!
"whatever is your personal truth, it's welcomed... But you can't require someone else to have your personal truth"

"We are literally made of stardust." I've heard Neil do this speech many times but it always gets me each time he does

So in that way, the atoms that form both us and our solid planet have certainly been part of one or more stars over the history of the universe.
If I taught in school, I would run Neil DeGrass Tyson videos in class. He is so eloquent, and so logical. He shows that one needn't be the be all and end all, in light of new information. This is the intellectual approach, to thinking for oneself, to arriving at workable conclusions based on real facts. To life itself.
I like how the book is secondary to what Neil talked about. Like he is more focused on delivering information to people wanting to learn than trying to sell a product. Refreshing in the age of hyperfocused marketing and rampant consumerism. He's a national treasure
Well done both of you. I think that this kind of exchange should / could have happened years ago. I am very happy to see this. I especially liked the way the moderator brought up issues. Congrats to all
"You are made as the same ingredients as those stars. We are, not just poetically...We are literally stardust that achieved consciousness to contemplate the extent of the universe in which we live"
Honestly hearing this puts a good bit of tears in my eyes. Putting all the craziness aside... everything is truly beautiful.
If you're going to invite him onto a show, give him time, and give him space. This was well done.
Scientific truth!
Dr Tysons best interview yet.
Give him spacetime!
This was a great interview
So many things he's saying is how I've always thought and yet made to feel something "was wrong with me" because I questioned everything. What or who is normal? Where did the word "normal" even come from? "We are literally stardust." I could listen to him alllllll day!!!
I know what he means. I used to get sick watching my parents regularly make bad decisions using false information.
Sociology is such an amazing study! I just finished my first semester I am 37 and see things in so many different ways now.

Got goosebumps at the end. Mind blown!

His passion is palpable, AMAZING 👏
Ari said exactly what I felt after watching this - listening to Neil De Grasse Tyson is a joy
I don’t have many deeply held beliefs since I spent a decade deconstructing my Christianity. I was a Christian for almost 50 years. It was hard work but it’s great being able to look at the world and life in a way that works better with science.
Science changes based on new facts and is debatable. Religion is stiff, unchanging, and relies on blind faith.
Yea but Neil was saying Christianity is fine, religion is fine, the only problem is when you try to force others to believe the same. You can both be religious and scientific.
@@fernandoarroyo3889 by nature that's what religion does. Spread the word, save the people. So no religion is fine unless you can stop your religious leaders and soldiers from forced indoctrination...ie look at the past and what is still happening all over the world.

What a gift this interview was. There is only one Neil DeGrasse Tyson.
Hopefully some more will emerge.

He debunked nothing. All he did say was we need to get along so no one would kick his butt in the comment section when we catch him telling lies. I'll bet you think Greta the abused child and Bill Nye the failed mechanical engineer turned clown for a children's show Science Guy are also scientist. It is not that liberal fools enjoy being lied to, they are just not smart enough to know when they are being lied to. Just look at all the liberal educated that were guided by their alma mater to an education that did not lead to a job that could pay for their worthless education. You think those idiots know how to think? There is an irony when I ask you what you think. Neil never actually says anything. Neil is just another double talking liberal. Neil has learned he was wrong and evolution never happened. He used to believe his mama was a monkey (a political truth), but now he wants us to believe Alf the cat eating alien is your daddy (the new political truth). The science truth is creation. Either you believe in God and all men have rights (permanent ethics) or you believe might makes right (no ethics) and your God is an alien because genetics has proven intelligent design and disproven evolution. Your truth vs my truth is a BS argument Neil, there is only one truth. Neil's point is he has no point. What a double talking liberal. All these liberal fools think DeGrasse had something important to say besides, "Can't we all get along," a socialist concession until the next socialist liberal attack on our rights. Neil is either a complete fool or he is willing to lie to make money but his followers are idiots. Over at CNN Fredo got wacked and Lemon got sneezed out. MSNBC is going to one day fire Ari Melber for the same lies as Fredo and Lemon. Slowly we will crush CNN and MSNBC out of existence because they are enemies of the state. Soon everyone will get their red pill.
@Jason You are being disrespectful of a person who is definitely smarter than you. Who's calling YOU to be interviewed?
@@luannhetrick-wood9764 Neil may be smarter than a lot of people but he is still a liar. So what did your fool say to roast and debunk MAGA-era science lies? You missed the fact that Neil double-talked his way out of answering any of Ari's softball questions.
I’m so glad to be living at the same time as Neil deGrasse Tyson, at a time when the technology exists to allow me to listen to him.
As a teen I was a fan of Carl Sagan and thought I'd never see someone like him again. And boom: there's Neil de Grasse Tyson taking it to the next level.
Preach sister.
Why is living with Neil Tyson any different from any other time?
Even with your technology today - from what you're telling me, you can't even think for yourself.
What is Neil Tyson telling you that - is so compelling and so fascinating?
If you know anything about Neil Tyson - he uses evolution to explain the universe and everything down to the atoms in our body - yet - the truth of the matter is he is using pseudoscience - not science.
If you really want to answer a question - ask yourself this - why is it that in today's America, the most technically advanced nation on earth - with practically every home a computer, laptop or cell phone - - yet - - most people don't even know the capital of Maine - let alone anything about what's going on around the world - or even in their country?
And don't even ask about - real science!
@@ErwinBlonk Carl was his mentor and hero.
@@ceaserusa4771 you REALLY are suffering horribly from the Dunning-Kruger effect, you poor thing!
...."we like following leaders and we let them do their thinking for us.....and, i can't embrace that". i've been thinking this since 2016 and never actually put those words together. i'd love to have lunch with this man.
Nothing is permanent. Absolutely nothing.
Neil DeGrasse Tyson is always enlightening, perceptible, and makes the scary unknowns not so scary. And he's never ever boring. Love to hear him talk!
He's a very nice well educated man. 👍
Interesting and spot-on description of how science is taught in schools. History classes can (have been) the same thing: "Here's a book, it tells you when and where things happened, and who did them ... test on Monday!" But that's not "history"! My high school history prof made us determine WHY things happened - the local and regional EVENTS - and how they AFFECTED various social/political entities, and nudged them into certain ACTIONS. History is alive, and cram-packed full of nuance - it's so much more than dates and names of people and battlefields.
So true
I hated history when at school. Until university when thinking about what happened in the past, and why it happened, made it come alive.
@@theskyehiker I hated it to. I never appreciated history until I started doing ancestry research. History in school was so boring because there was not much context to it. My history teachers never provided any incentive to make me want to understand it. It was just dates and events without reason.
Saying "I don't know" is the basis of science, really.
It is the reason we keep exploring and investigating.
This is why I have really like NDT and Carl Sagan. Both introduced me to the power of scientific thinking as opposed to political or religious ideology. Hence I dislike FoxNews and evangelicals.
Thank you, Ari, for having this incredible, amazing man on your show. What a wonderful distraction from worrying about Donald Trump and his band of merry criminals, climate change, food insecurity, and a plethora of other fears and concerns. I have loved watching/hearing Dr. Tyson since my first exposure to him. My vision no longer allows me to read (just about the greatest sorrow of my life) but the great folks at Talking Books may have this latest book available; I shall request it this very evening. Thank you both so very much.
The most compelling message from Neil for me in this interview is "whatever is your personal thrut, it's welcomed, but you can't require someone else have your personal truth". This is a genuine problem with every kind of religious "nationalism", be it christian, muslim, or whatever.
You don't need to be a genius to adopt "scientific" thinking. You just need to be critical about the things that you can observe. The people who are the most critical about there own thoughts and observations are scientists.
A brilliant exposition of the separation of 'church' and State
I could listen to you guys speak for days with no end. You two are interesting, humourous, thought provoking and a great example of what friendship is.
So right you are!!
Agreed 💕
Absolutely!! 💕
“We are literally star dust that achieved consciousness”….profound…gives me goose bumps! ❤ me some NDT!
""I am a star traveling together with you," the initiate confesses in the Mithraic liturgy."

Canadian band Rush stated it long ago in their lyrics....... I am made from the dust of the stars, and the oceans flow in my veins... Long before this guy ever came along.
@Flynn
So true (RIP Neal.) But then again someone else grasped the concept before our Canadian brothers. There are many independent pathways to the truth.
Stars were spoken into existence with these words: 'Let there be light.'
I love that. Yes it is profound, while also being kind of obvious when one let's oneself reflect a bit upon it.
David Bowie, a man of wonderful down to earth & spiritual depth, was onto something with his Ziggy Stardust.
One of the best science educators ever. Love Neil degrasse Tyson
Your conversation reminded me of Joni Mitchell’s song Woodstock. ‘We are stardust, we are golden, and we’ve got to get ourselves back to the garden. . . ‘
Neil DeGrasse Tyson is the people's scientist. He is brilliant but manages to explain without becoming condescending.
The apartheid tribesmen removed whites as "the scientists", on the movies, and even cia used to be ivy league white folks. Those don't exist anymore. They also spread atheism through blacks and pregnant men and satanism. Yet those white folks help the apartheid tribesmen spread corruption in our world instead if inclining to Muslims and together defeat the apartheid tribesmen from our midst.
I think this is the punishment on the crossworshippers for being ignorant. They were always ignorant, hence shy they are called Dãaleen (those who went astray).
Usually.
Perfectly said
We have Dr Karl in Australia 😊
Yes ^^ this
I couldn't agree more with the final statement "spending a little time with your mind is a joy".
Thank you Neil for enriching my life.
I could listen to him for hours and probably never get tire.
Listening to Neil DeGrasse Tyson makes my brain feel good.
I could watch these two all day.
🐑😆
@@josephjones4968 an emoji insult against the backdrop of such context? That says way more about you than it does about me. I could explain it to you but if this video went over you head, I’m sure everything else will too. But carry on and keep wallowing in your ignorance it seems to suit you well.
