The Essence Of Science In Less Than 5 Minutes

 "Are UFOs actually alien spacecraft visiting Earth? They might be, says Neil deGrasse Tyson, but if you want to make that claim you better bring the evidence to support it. Eyewitness testimony is the lowest form of evidence. To measure what is true or not true in the world, we require data -- and when it comes to alien appearances, it's as astronomer Carl Sagan said: 'Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.' So what can you do to prove your alien abduction story? Take selfies, live-stream video to the internet, and if you happen to find yourself in a spacecraft getting your 'gonads poked', then grab an item from the alien lab as evidence before they release you back on Earth."

This applies no matter if the claim involves religion, alternatives to medicine, conspiracy theories, or any other pseudoscience. Click on the link below for the conciseness and wisdom of Neil deGrasse Tyson:

THE Problem in the USA

"When you have people who don't know much about science standing in denial of it, and rising to power, that is a recipe for the complete dismantling of our informed democracy."

"Science is an entire exercise in finding what is true."

"Out of this rising, new emergent truth, science is better than anything else we have come up with as human beings."

"When you have an established, emergent scientific truth, it is true whether or not you believe in it, and as soon as you understand that, the faster we can get on with the political conversation about how to solve the problems that face us."

Neil deGrasse Tyson Shows He Can Think Unscientifically

The link below is evidence that even the best of scientific minds can fail to always use it. It's curious that Neil deGrasse Tyson fails to see that this statement is as scientifically wanting as a religious apologist using the Fine Tuning argument for the existence of God.  Why?  Because science deals in probabilities.  The probability ("very likely") stated in both cases, without knowing the "out of" (the denominator), cannot be determined.
