Bill Nye to Anti-Abortionists: "You Literally Don't Know What You're Talking About"

http://fusion.net/video/203727/bill-nye-abortion-video/

The Science Guy speaks out.

Bill nye is a retarded libbo.

Don't act like you didn't love his intro song.

Also, do you have any cogent comments on his scientific claims, or are you just going to dismiss him because he disagrees with you?

What do "Women's Reproductive Rights" have to do with "When Life Begins" ?

Are you an idiot?

Yes. I do believe that Tze is indeed a Monkey's Uncle.

How does that make him wrong? It's a widely accepted truism in paleontology that gorillas, chimps and human all evolved from a common ancestor.

Derp.
I'll soft ball it to you. He's spouting number like they mean something more than they do. That 2% means a LOT.
Just like him saying there's a bigger diff between brother and sister than between races.
There is...because they're different genders. He got called on that bullshit.
Its called intellectual honesty. Nye doesn't have it.

His argument would be like me saying, "well children are exploring their bodies so who cares if I did an autopsy on a living child. Children die everyday all over the world, are you gonna arrest every person who ever had a child..."

And the he would have gone on to repeat that same bit of info 50 times in 30 minutes.

Good stuff.

I'd have more respect for anti-abortion people if they factored in practical ways of reducing abortion, education and such, rather than trying to legislate based on their half-understood ideas of how it works and heavy-handedly trying to punish people for not doing it their way.

Problem: People really are trying to pass laws on that kind of logic, prevent women from having access to morning-after pills, and so on.

That's what he's pointing out, and he's right. People really are trying to pass laws on the idea that "If this doesn't happen, we need to punish the woman responsible!".

And that once a conception happened, the person must be in it for the long haul, like it or not.

Pretty nasty stuff that really has no root in biology, in other words.

Heck it doesn't even really have a root in religion, 'life begins at conception' sure isn't in any bible I ever had.

Not that religious objection should override someone else's health and safety.

He's wrong.
He's the most biased idiot on earth. "We're just monkeys! Heck, we share 98& of our DNA with them!"

Look up 'cladistics'.

I.e. by one of the common ways of charting evolution, species are considered part of their ancestor's group, or clade.

So we're part of the ape clade, which is part of the monkey clade, which is part of the primate clade, which is part of the mammal clade, which is part of the vertebrate clade, which is part of the animal clade, which is part of the earth life clade.

We are thus all of these things. New groups, like humans, are added on top of old ones, but don't make us not part of our prior clades.

Did you really have to ask.

I have as much respect for anti abortion people as I do for the pro choice crowd. Both groups are idiotic without any clue as to how to meet in the middle.

And here I liked his shows when I was a kid. Now I don't know who he is anymore.

Isnt Bill Nye a Atheist?

It's just more of the infantilized women not wanting to take responsibility for their actions. I will agree that women should be able to get birth control but honestly I find the whole "stay out of my bedroom" argument hilarious when contrasted with "buy me contraception."

Ps not all women are infantilized.
