WOTM: The conduct of Atheists?
After my snarky video regarding Neil deGrasse Tyson's claim to be agnostic a few years ago, I'm revisiting the subject to address one of the more disturbing comments he made in his Big Think video. Still a huge fan of Neil's, but I think it might be time for him to find another hero.
Thanks again for your continued help!!! B

What was the reason? Please advise, anyone.
Bummer, thanks for your integrity Brian. Thanks for catching it, Aron.
Thanks for catching what? I need my Brian K D fix....
I just read why it is isn't showing.
This video is marked private. I can't view it.
The video isn't playing for me.
I've always wanted to ask Neil DeGrasse Tyson if he also claims he is not an aleprechaunist, just "agnostic" about them.
The problem is that Sagan believed the same lie that I once did, than an atheist claims to know what an agnostic reasonably admits he does not know. It was a revelation for me to discover that atheism really meant no more than lacking theism.
Sadly, Carl never identified as atheist either. Instead he famously said, "An atheist knows there is no god. An atheist knows a lot more than I do."
Well, color me embarrassed. I may have misremembered an interview Sagan did on Dennis Prager's TV show in the '90s. I'm pulling this. Thanks Aron.
