Tax dollars intended for science education must not be used to teach creationism as any sort of real explanation of nature, because any observation or process of inference about our origin and the nature of the universe disproves creationism in every respect.
Bill NyeI feel that I've often pointed out that there are countless aspects of life and nature that scientists and scientific thinkers cannot explain. Why the universe is accelerating in its expansion and what came before the Big Bang serve as compelling examples. The process of science provides a way to seek answers to those questions.
Bill NyePeople confuse the word cynicism with the word skepticism. One is โyouโre not gonna pay attention to anything, think everythingโs screwed up, nothingโs ever gonna work out rightโ, thatโs cynicism. But skepticism is, โyouโre presented with evidence and you do your best to draw conclusions based on thatโ. So, as the saying goes, Bill Nye, do you believe in ghosts? No. However, I would love to see one. Bring it on. Iโm open minded to the idea, but the more I look into it in a skeptical frame of thinking, the less likely it seems.
Bill NyeUnlike science, creationism cannot predict anything, and it cannot provide satisfactory answers about the past.
