Neil DeGrasse Tyson on Religion
Neil tries to break down how religion is wrong, religious absolutists are ignorant, and how Science holds the moral high ground.
Time stamps and my thoughts:
0:10 - most religious people embrace science
This is a strawman argument. If most people jumped off a cliff to their death, would you? I mean, they all did, right? So why not? He is implying that because MOST embrace science wholly, you should too.
0:54 - no tradition of scientists picketing
Another strawman argument to claim moral high ground. He is implying that religion has picketed against scientists in history but science has never picketed against religious groups.
2:04 - you don't ask if you go to church every Sunday, you ask people "do you pray to a personal god"
SMALL G here - because he is not asking are you Jewish, or Catholic, he is not asking if the person prays to Allah or Shiva or even Moleck or Remphan or SATAN! I am sure there is at least 1 Satan worshiping scientist who prays to Satan and would count as part of that 40% who pray to a "god" Change the question to "how many pray to Allah" or Christian's Jesus, or Jewish God and I bet the numbers would be single digits. Almost all evolution and theoretical scientists are atheists. I mean, science says that nothing exploded and created everything and God is make believe and fake.
3:02 - the less convinced there is a "god" because the world has sin and death and war. Which means, "god" is either not all powerful, or not all good. This is a logic fallacy because he is saying if he was god the world would be perfect in his eyes with no death or war essentially. God created the world and we have the ability to choose how we live. If one man chooses to war with a neighbor, does that mean God is evil for creating the world so that man could war with his neighbor? Obviously not! But to Neil, our actions are because "god" who he thinks doesn't exist is not all powerful and not all good.
