I always say when you see that old black-and-white footage of the rocket on the launch pad and it falls over and explodes, that's because people had slide rules. Not having the decimal point is a real drawback. You want the decimal point, take it from me.

The future of commerce is going to be all electronic. The gold standard was a fine idea, but electronic changes of funds and credits will be the future.
Bill Nye
Image
People get a lot out of being religious. They have strong senses of community and mutual support. So, what's not to love [there]?
Bill Nye

The theory of evolution was not formally published until shortly before Faraday's death. Evolution was yet to be discovered during Faraday's life. Also, I don't think that Michael Faraday would claim that the Earth is extraordinarily young.

If you look back on all the teachers that you liked, I am sure you will find they were very entertaining.

Our goal in science is to discover universal laws of nature. If one's faith requires one to abandon or ignore natural laws, well, that person is going to have trouble reconciling religion and science. Otherwise, there is no any conflict.

Climate change is happening, humans are causing it, and I think this is perhaps the most serious environmental issue facing us.
Bill Nye
Image
Religion is a completely different thing from the claim that the Earth is six thousand years old. That's just crazy.
Bill Nye
Image
If we raise a generation of students who dont believe in the process of science, who think everything that weve come to know about nature and the universe can be dismissed by a few sentences translated into English from some ancient text, youre not going to continue to innovate.
Bill Nye

History is but the record of the public and official acts of human beings. It is our object, therefore, to humanize our history and deal with people past and present people who ate and possibly drank people who were born, flourished and died not grave tragedians, posing perpetually for their photographs.

The oncoming trouble I speak of is climate change. It's going to affect all of you in the same way the Second World War consumed people of my parent's generation.
Bill Nye
Image
I hope climate science becomes the big thing. And then what I want is electrical engineers to solve the world's energy problems, energy distribution problems. I want mechanical engineers to make better transportation systems. I want chemical engineers to develop better solar panels, and so on.

The more you find out about the world, the more opportunities there are to laugh at it.
