Quote

If you have this idea that the earth is only 6,000 years old, you are denying, if you will, everything that you can touch and see. Youre not paying attention to whats happening in the universe around you.

If you meet somebody who says he or she has never dreamed of flying, I don't believe you. I mean, they're lying.

Everyone, red state, blue state, everyone supports space exploration.

The meaning of life is pretty clear: Living things strive to pass their genes into the future. The claim that we would not have morals or ethics without religion is extraordinary. Animals in nature seem to behave in moral ways without organized religion.
Bill Nye

The US Navy has several people on every ship that can navigate by the stars. They don't fool with that.

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.

Anybody who grew up with the space program is a fan of science fiction.

There are two ways to be rich: to have more or need less. It's estimated that we squander about 30 percent of our energy leaving the lights on, the refrigerator door open, and so on. Then there is the enormous amount of food that we expend huge amounts of energy to raise and then throw away.

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 Nye
Image
Religion is a completely different thing from the claim that the Earth is six thousand years old. That's just crazy.

If you memorize the periodic table it will speed you up if you're a chemist, but by and large, the reason you have a periodic table is so that you can store that information outside of your body. That way it frees up some part of your brain to do something else...

Evolution is not something you can believe in or not believe in like do you believe in gravity.
Bill Nye

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

Hard to find anything lovelier than a tree. They grow at right angles to a tangent of the nominal sphere of the Earth.

People and stars are made of the same stuff.

Science is the best idea humans have ever had. The more people who embrace that idea, the better.
Bill Nye

Unlike science, creationism cannot predict anything, and it cannot provide satisfactory answers about the past.

We need them. We need scientifically literate voters and taxpayers for the future.
