- 1977 Carl Sagan Christmas lectures 1, the earth as a planet.
In his first Christmas Lecture, American astronomer and cosmologist Carl Sagan explores planet Earth and the place, scale and geometry of the "pale blue dot" in the Solar System.
Sagan provides a unique insight into the history of our knowledge of the third planet from the Sun, formed 4.5 billion years ago.
Using images and models of the planets in our Solar System, Sagan reveals how the heliocentric model of our universe, in which the Earth and planets revolve around the Sun, came to replace the earlier Aristotelian idea that our planet was at the centre and everything orbited around it.
As the complexity of observational tools has developed from simple telescopes to complex spacecraft, so too has our understanding of the world we inhabit. Looking back on the evolution in space science in the years since Sagan's lectures we have made huge advances in our understanding of our planet's environment, climate, weather, geology and biology -- as well as our relative place in the universe.
In a crazy world,
listening to Carl Sagan talk is like having _sanity_
poured into your ears / mind
- It's SO relieving!
For those who are criticising young people of today, these lectures are still happening and are shown on British TV every Christmas. The presentations style has not changed that much. The lecturers still use models made from wood, cardboard and plastic. They still use simple graphics and and they still use audience participation to demonstrate their subject,.
And the kids still love it.
At so do I.
EricIrl its free?
@@lubu2960 - Yep. All free. The Christmas Lectures are aimed specifically at kids, to try to get them interested in science and new ideas and asking questions, so the Royal Institution tries to keep things as accessible as possible. :-)
Yep. Faraday was adamant that the Lectures should always be more about content than packaging. Very uncool these days, and that, to me, is their great strength. The Christmas Lectures are aimed directly at school kids. It's not stuff to wash over them passively, it's all about stimulating thought and questions and debate.
It's brilliant that Sagan agreed to take part. He was a terrific ambassador for knowledge. I'd love to have seen a Richard Feynman lecture, but I'm not sure my brain would have been able to cope! Neil deGrasse Tyson would be a fine presenter too, but I imagine he's fully occupied touring the States these days.
I think having a Christmas Lecture or two under your belt for a scientist does more good for the world than winning any of the more prestigious international prizes. Getting the call from the R. I. is the scientist's equivalent of a musician being asked to join Steely Dan in the studio, or being asked by Frank Zappa if you want to join his band... ;-)
I love the Richard Dawkins Christmas Lectures.
@@EleanorPeterson They have normal lectures on youtube, many of them. They are not aimed at kids.
Maybe it's a bit too Quantum and black hole heavy but there is other stuff as well. There are other institutions that out these kind of lectures on (and on youtube) if you're tired of simple hollywoodified discovery channel stuff.
I can't find words to express the preciousness of Carl Sagan.
he is pure wisdom
He wrote PRECIOUSNESS, which is by itself a fairly appropriate word to describe the refined and unique character of Carl Sagan. I don't see any mistakes in his spelling. Stop being such a Correcting Corey when there is nothing to correct.
@@chizpa305 "He wrote PRECIOUSNESS, which is by itself a fairly appropriate word to describe the refined and unique character of Carl Sagan."
What made Carl precious? Truly, what? He believed he came from chaos with nothing to direct the chaos and by mere chance it somehow did that defies physics. That does not produce precious anything.
We can't get the creation of the universe without God but Carl believed it happened naturally that eventually led to us. That is impossible. Carl was a dumbass and dumbasses are NOT precious. They are disgusting!
@@2fast2block Carl Sagan helped NASA in many of theis missions to Venus Mars and Jupiter, he was very knowledgeable and had a unique ability to share his knowledge with a lot of passion and in a way that was easy to undersdand. He was very recognized in the scientific community, srote great books and hosted Cosmos, which is a pure classic. In the meantime here you are, a nobody who likes to humiliate and offend people over a comment while doing nothing for humanity. If God had created us, he would be repulsed by you.
@@chizpa305 Me, "We can't get the creation of the universe without God but Carl believed it happened naturally that eventually led to us."
Now, let's see how you replied that you agreed or not. If you disagreed then you should have had science for how creation happened naturally.
Blah, blah with NO science to challenge what I wrote yet your dumb ass felt the need to respond with word farts.
And wait, more proof with in-depth science how Carl was precious in believing no God needed for creation...
" In the meantime here you are, a nobody who likes to humiliate and offend people over a comment while doing nothing for humanity. If God had created us, he would be repulsed by you."
Carl who taught the universe just began with no explanation how, and said crap like...
Carl Sagan "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring."
He believed delusion but I'm that bad person for bringing it out.
Carl Sagan, "The dangers of not thinking clearly are much greater now than ever before. It's not that there's something new in our way of thinking - it's that credulous and confused thinking can be much more lethal in ways it was never before."
Carl didn't think clearly and had NO science for a natural creation he believed in but I'm bad for showing the true scum Carl was.
Carl Sagan, "We hunger to understand, so we invent myths about how we imagine the world is constructed - and they're, of course, based upon what we know, which is ourselves and other animals. So we make up stories about how the world was hatched from a cosmic egg or created after the mating of cosmic deities or by some fiat of a powerful being."
Carl believed in myths and accused people like me of doing it. Yet, I'm supposed to let that go. That is better for humanity to support lies.
Gee, keep on showing not only what a disgusting dumbass you are.
Watching this in 2020, is a time travel indeed.
When Carl Sagan said “in 1979 the voyager WILL pass close” 🤯.
Its fun to time travel with the respected Mr Dr Sagan. .... as of today I best wish he is examining the Oort Cloud on another dimension. Safe time travels to us all humans
Yeah and now the voyagers have both left the solar system and are in interstellar space sending back data on the Heliopause. We've learned that interstellar space is different and more dangerous than our local space. Lots of harmful Rays and radiation. Our solar system is like a harbor or a marina, and interstellar space is like the open ocean
Its amusing that he questioned if the voyagers would make it to Uranus and Neptune. Those craft really are massively exceeding the expectations of the 70s.
don't you just love how he speaks, annunciating each vowel - often with emphasis.
I was at the lectures back in 1977!
+rastacountry You were very lucky I love miss Dr. Sagan!!
and what can you show from that except you bragging about it?
or remembering and communicating a lived experience. perhaps some nostalgia. sheesh.
why would i be sad? you are so closed minded
@@BarbikaPahor what a shitty comment. Unworthy of a Carl sagan lecture
I can listen to Carl Sagan for hours. Awesome human!
Awesome Yuman
me too all time, my heart an soul
livefreeanddonttread Me too!!!!
i do evry day for years, never get tierd of him always new things
Me also !!!
I wish he could have witnessed the latest visuals or those planets and discoveries by modern science.
Carl Sagan is a personality who has transcended the boundaries of the age.
Carl Sagan: his presence in and on this world is greatly missed.
will make sure his legacy lives for ever
"his presence in and on this world is greatly missed."
What he missed is ever explaining how the universe was created without God. He will NOT be missing his judgment with his Maker. Then Carl will certainly wish he didn't ignore such issues.
@@2fast2block I knew it! I knew at least one of the replies would be some stuck up self righteous religious fucking nutbag with dogshit for brains. Try thinking for yourself instead of assuming the worst for those of us that do. Grow the fuck up and take a step back, look at what you're saying about other human beings. If you believe what you're saying, which I think you do, then yiure clearly a worse person that he was. You should be fucking ashamed of yourself to be honest! Grow up and educate yourself!
@@w8m4n that asshole follows every Carl Sagan video for at least a year and leaves his hateful shit everywhere in a comments. Religion is responsible for at least some dickheads :)
@@2fast2block blah blah blah
Carl Sagan a very precious jewel among the well-known astro-physicists and perhaps the only one who explained the cosmos to general public so beautifully. He was a very intelligent personality I always admired since 1980s.
I saw Sagan give a talk in NYC around 1986, about Global Warming (or whatever it was called at the time) and he was a very quick witted man. Someone in the audience was giving him a hard time (even then the question was apparently controversial) and Sagan eventually said something like "Well, with all your hot air we will soon experience climate warming in this room."
very gifted man, can andestend all things as the universe created
Must have been great ... Sagan was one of the few people I'd loved to have seen in person!
"and Sagan eventually said something like "Well, with all your hot air we will soon experience climate warming in this room.""
If that was true, dumbass Carl supplied MUCH hot air himself. All his talk about this and that when the dumbass couldn't even explain his dumb belief how could we get the creation of the universe without God.
@@2fast2block Have you ever noticed that a person's degree of religiosity is inversely proportional to their average intelligence? Think about it.
Humor. So important in life :)
This is the one Christmas Lecture, which most people of a certain generation will remember. Carl Sagan was brilliant.
A man truly ahead of his time
Not really. His science was totally contemporary.
I watched this series when it was new. Carl Sagan sparked my interest in the universe and I will be forever grateful.
I watched these lectures when I was 8 years old, and they had a profound effect on me. I never thought I'd see these again. So pleased to have found them, and watched them again. It's made me feel like a child again.
I turned it over to watch the Banana Splitz.
What a wonderful person Carl Sagan was.
Thank you, I can soothe my nighttime anxiety by listening to him...
Marie G. Relatable :')
I'm just doing exactly that. it's like a cradle song of the universe.
He's my nightly subconscious listening session. Been doing it for the last few years. His voice is soothing to me. It's like a child falling asleep to a bed time story. Plus, I've learned loads from his lectures, cosmos etc. :). Zzzzzzzz
After decades of reading all things Carl Sagan and devouring as much information about nature as would fit in my brain, these lectures didn't provide any new information. Still, I love hearing him speak. Watching him present to audience full of eager young minds filled me with hope. There is no one like Carl. He shone the light of reason on superstition and supernaturalism, and helped countless numbers of people find their way out of the darkness. Long live Carl Sagan!
Long live?
He's dead
@@meikhochakre3309 u're missing the point here.. he lives on through his work. He's being remembered for what he did.. and not necessarily his physical presence.
There are very few people I would watch and listen to for over an hour at a whopping 360p resolution. Carl is one of them. Great lecture. Filmed in 1977, I was about the age of the young girls that helped out with the Earth-Venus modeling. How I wish I could have been there to participate. Notice also how proper everyone was dressed. Today the kids...and many of the adults, attending a lecture like this would be wearing shorts and flip-flops. Sad to see the way things have "progressed".
I have tinnitus and I appreciate how well he enunciates his words. I can understand every word.
Tinnitus is awful. God bless you buddy
Although I was 16 years old at the time, I never saw this before. It reminds me of the fact that the word 'awesome' used to have a real meaning.
One can't help but feel sorry for the philistines who vote this down.
That's a way to teach children! We all miss you Carl.
AMEN
"We all miss you Carl."
What he missed is ever explaining how the universe was created without God. He will NOT be missing his judgment with his Maker. Then Carl will certainly wish he didn't ignore such issues.
@@2fast2block How do you think? Would the world be better with more people like Carl Sagan, or with more biochemical waste like you?
@Star Trek Theory "Velikovsky's work is frequently cited as a canonical example of pseudoscience." Nice.
@@smashexentertainment676 better place with who, I don't really care. I do care about showing what a dingbat Carl was and you are.
Carl Sagan "The Cosmos is all that is or was or ever will be."
Carl Sagan, "I can’t imagine anyone denying the existence of the laws of nature, but I don’t know of any compelling evidence for the old man in the sky."
More from the fool, "It’s perfectly possible that the universe is infinitely old and therefore uncaused. In fact, there are detailed cosmological models that hold such a view and that are consistent with everything we know. To my mind, it seems not fully satisfactory to say that there was a first cause. That seems to postpone dealing with the problem rather than solving it. If we say “God” made the universe, then surely the next question is, “Who made God?” If we say “God” was always here, why not say the universe was always here? If we say that the question “Where did God come from?” is too tough for us poor mortals to understand, then why not say that the question of, “Where did the universe come from?” is too tough for us mortals? In what way, exactly, does the God hypothesis advance our knowledge of cosmology? What predictions does it make on which the hypothesis will stand or fall?"

Read the article. Have a vomit bag or trash can nearby for what a hypocritical, lying, mocking, disgusting, foolish person he was.
Now, Carl the fool NEVER can get around these laws and what the lead to...
Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.
....yet the buffoon thinks creation happened naturally, but the idiot says, "What predictions does it make on which the hypothesis will stand or fall?" as the crap-for-brains ignores the CLEAR science that creation had to happen by God supernaturally! Still, the fool who ignores the laws farted out, "I don’t know of any compelling evidence for the old man in the sky." Notice his mocking God, "man in the sky" as if that makes him look smart as he completely ignores the evidence.
His question, "Who made God?" is as dumb as he is.
So in his way of foolish thinking, if a supernatural creator created the natural realm, then that supernatural creator who created the natural realm with its natural laws has then become also bound by those natural laws the supernatural creator created. So explain why a supernatural creator is also bound by the laws the supernatural creator created. Or, show how smart you are and just give your science for creation happening naturally and don't forget to give your science how the natural laws were created, too. If he wanted to act smart, it may be a good idea to actually show you are.
Sagan the imbecile will at some point face his Maker for his judgment of what he believed in this life. His extreme shame and regret was all his choice. He wanted to be a hypocritical bozo. Then he'll be thrown into the lake of fire. It will be his 'The End' and be remembered no more. ALL his choice and for others who follow that fool.
I remember watching this on tv as a wide eyed six year old. Truly inspiring.
i wish carl would still live and to this stuff today.... he was so inspiring...
I'm finding it amazing that even Carl Sagan was forced to look at those blurry pictures of Jupiter's moons at one time... wasn't even that long ago--think about the images we'll have in 40 years!
pon33villin Funny how he must ask them to ignore the skylab, there was clearly a shortage of space-photos in 1977, as one might expect.
Hopefully we will have proper surface photos of the moons of Jupiter soon ^_^
At least he was instrumental - and got to see - the updated views of the planets, which he incorporated into his followup to "Cosmos," "Pale Blue Dot."
Thanks to Carl Sagan I began to read about astronomy. He will be missed forever
The voyager is still working, this is amazing to watch
I vividly remember this set of lectures. I was utterly gripped by them. From these lectures Carl Sagan gave me a love of science and astronomy that I still have today. I was 11 back then and I might add I had a crush on Prof Sagan as well. My parents bought me 'The Hamlyn Guide to Astronomy' around that time, I pestered them that much and they didn't have a lot of money....My Mum treated me to 'The Dragons of Eden' as well! Happy days...Sometimes at night even now I look out at the sky and say, "Hello Universe," so the impact on my life of these lectures cannot be underestimated. I miss Carl Sagan even though he passed away nearly a quarter of a century ago.
And when you looked up to the sky and said "Hello Universe", were you stupid like Carl was and think it just got there on its own? If so, give your science for that. Give me the laugh.

I didn't discover Sagan until a few years back and I'm almost 40, was never intrested in school or science, was so boring. (Plus being a teenager, other things where on my mind :P)
Now I'm for every surfing the net trying to find all I can and catch up on what I missed growing up.
@@2fast2block Oh please? You cannot be serious in believing that Godshit stuff spouting absolute bollocks from a huge potential door stop, which has no other purpose than to brainwash gullible idiots like you. Yes I could equally call you all the names under the sun as have with Carl. The difference between you and Carl is that he has actually educated people with real knowledge, whereas you can only quote from a pile of brainwashing crap. Well done for demonstrating that one celled organisms still exist to spout absolute crap like you have! You ought to be a politician.
I was wondering why we never made a doc showing what we'd look like through another species' telescope, and here it is narrated by Carl Sagan himself all the way back in 1977. Amazing!
LOOK AT THE AMAZING WAY CARL HOLDS THE STUDENTS ATTENTION WHO ARE JUST SOAKING IN EVERY FASCINATING FACT OF OUR WORLD AND UNIVERSE ! A TRULY ENLIGHTENING EXPERIENCE !
As Carl concludes it all just happened on its own somehow. Carl is teaching how to be a fool like he was.

We need more teachers like this, Science was so borning for me when I was at school, but If Carl Sagan had been my teacher!!
WoW
I wish we had a video of Michael Faraday's Christmas Lectures (at least one of them). I would love to have seen that.
+George Mason That would be priceless
Akshay Dave Right?
+George Mason Getting videos of how electricity is made and the inventions as they are happening from the inventor himself .. Well, that would have been a privilege of the lifetime..
I liked before watching ;)
same here
Nobody even gives half of a fuck.
ivan toplel i do because i did the same thing
BIAS
Lo mismo
Carl Sagan ❤ what a treasure
Science, and especially astronomy, has developed SO much since then. This was just around the time of the two Voyager missions, which would still take years each to start return any useful data back to Earth.
We knew alot, for that time, but we still had SO much more to discover. 👍😎
ALL RISE AND PRAISE THE ALMIGHTY CARL "I'D SMOKE THAT SHIT" SAGAN!
Thirty-six years later, that kid's "Hello, Universe" would just now be reaching the super-Earth exoplanet HD 85512 b.
It would be nice to have, as a follow-up, a survey of the young people in that audience, and find how many were inspired by this lecture to get into science in later life.
I just noticed your comment. I am one of them, and in Uni matriculated with a degree in Cosmology.
I can listen to Carl Sagan whole day, he is really one of a kind Scientist and educator who can make a non technical person understands science, very gifted man.
All Carl did was show how foolish he lived and died.

I'm still new to the whole Carl Sagan experience, only found him a few years back when Neil released The Cosmos, and thats when I first heard the name, and found Carl was the OG of the Cosmos series and inspired Neil.
An awesome human being all round.
34:26 "If you look closely at, say New York City or over here or at Washington DC over here, you find no sign of life, intelligent or otherwise" 🤭😂🤣
He took about 25 minutes to settle in, I am glad he was nervous and the experience allowed him to blossom and enjoy his miraculous ability to communicate and explain to children.
what a humble teacher he is, he explains in a way that every common person can get the information.
What a joy to listen, what a joy to see this explanation.
So kind, so bright and clear. Carl Sagan is a person to love.
Carl Sagan, you're my hero.
Here for 2021 Christmas 🎄. What could one ask on such day anything other than listening to Carl Sagan.
I loved Dr. Sagan's little digression about the spacecraft using a can with a string going all the way down to Texas. He really knew how to break up academia while still keeping it relevant and thoughtful.
What a BRILLIANT way to spend Christmas; recognizing, at least culturally, some aspect of winter (in the northern hemisphere) and coming to understand the universe "as it really is" rather than praising a non-existent entity at a time of year he had nothing to do with. I have a new "holiday" ritual.
I remember getting my first globe as a child. Meant the world to me
The fact that he played trippy music while showing this is awesome
carl sagan was a great orator that is much missed
After watching this, I feel my life to be so insignificant. Beam me up, Scotty!
Stop the world, I wanna get off !
It would be amazing to watch prof Brian Green & prof Carl Sagan unveil the obscurities of Cosmos! 🙏🧿🙏
"The voyager spacecraft will also pass by Saturn and its rings. It will in fact then pass by Uranus, if it is still working." God damn, that thing still works! It's been sending data for over 40 years!
I can't wait until next year when NASA's New Horizons mission will reveal up-close images of Pluto and its moon
moons!
It still haven't happened
@@princeofallnegros4035 yes it has
Watching this Carl Sagan lecture in Nov. 2021. Now as in the past, Professor Sagan still speaks truth of Science and continues to inspire. We are pleased to have his talks and lectures via new virtual technology. Thank you, You Tube.
I wish Carl Sagan were here now to witness the giant leaps in space exploration we’ve taken. And his Planetary Society.
If dear late Mr Sagan was alive today and was lecturing an audience, myself included in the audience. And it that was a 8hr lecture I would dread, curse and almost cry at the end. I could listen with absolute focus and concentration forever. No one talks or explains as beautifully and poetically as Sagan did😢. Rest in peace🙏🏼😇
What a rendering of cosmos by Sagan, in a way children are fascinated and interested in this infinite and unknown universe .
With all the great and awesome inventions in the modern world, we can now certainly claim human beings are not the most intelligent, but the very least, because knowing so many facts and facets of the world and the universe, we continue to destroy life and put everyone in peril. Animals on the other hand have always lived in harmony within the ecosystem creating a balance.
Hope we learn something from other beings and put everything into balance again.
ALLLLL his 'pictures', illustrations, thanks to him, are all actual photographs taken from probes sent to orbit or flyby the planets. How much has changed in 40 years! From Faraday to Sagan... what greats will the future produce worthy of them?
Hail Sagan
In some people's minds regretfully. Love how he still kills it with the adult jokes.
It was my wish to study astronomy I came to US but did not know about this great man
The best scientist I have seen.
Thank you for uploading 🙏
Best Christmas present ever!
I went there for a lecture in the 80's when I was at school. It was about liquid nitrogen and this guy kept throwing things in a vat of it and freezing things then smashing them. fascinating!
To the person who said you were at the lectures....kudos, seriously envious!
Awesome, after all these years, learnt so many things about universe...wish I had seen this earlier ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏👌👌👌
Please share this brief video with other people: Atheists and Agnostics Need This
Amazing!
Awesome and funny...thanks for the upload
At 55.15 that's just amazing.
42 minutes to get to the dominant organism 42:11. I will always love you Carl.
Carl is awesome I can Listen to Him for Hours
Have you ever heard or read from him how we got creation without God? He just farts out it began. Not much science there.

I know right! and his voice 🥰🥰
He could make watching grass grow highly enertaining 😂
RIP friend.
Going to have to add this to my list..
"Jupiter, with 4 of its 12 or so moons showing"
Wow, how far we've come
Yeah, since we discovered technology recently 100 years or some more I think
as of oct 2019, jupiter has 79 natural satellites.
Haha, yes, he also said, Saturn and its ten moons. It's amazing to think that there was once a time when this was the "truth."

It is still working Carl, it goes beyond heliosphere now.
And in 1990s you'd request NASA to command Voyager to take picture of the earth.
May God rest your soul Carl.
What a great man. R. I. P. Carl
A wave of toothbrushing circling the Earth as it rotates - Dr Sagan had such a way with words, sorely missed.
Flat earth creationists will LOVE this video!
How I miss this wonderful orator, educator, enthusiast. He was and is common sense and intelligence personified. I hope all who attended any of his presentations appreciate their experience. I'm jealous to say the least
Nice thank you
This video has a distinct Mr. Rodgers feel but for the highly intelligent :P
Being that this is an introductory talk given to children, I'd have to disagree: it's for everybody.
His voice is so sweet
Imagine if Carl were alive today to see what we've learnt and discovered since his sad passing in 1996. He'd be in awe especially at JWST
Unbelievable .. do easy to follow .. miss him
Where does he say how the universe was created without God? Just saying the universe began is rather dumb.
czcams.com/video/iDjwF_-ydcM/video.html
I was in still in high school when he passed, and its only now in later life that I'm exploring what he had to share.
What a beautiful human being.
I could listen to sagan all day.something DR spokish with his flow of speach.would the word be intonation?
Why the question mark? Why didn't you ever question Carl who did not believe in God and yet could never explain with science how the creation of the universe could happen without God? He just farts out it began.
czcams.com/video/iDjwF_-ydcM/video.html
I listen to him most other days, currently listing to his auido book - Pale blur dot - though it does jump around from him narrating to another.
Next I wanna start reading all that he produced, thinking of stating with the demon haunted world.
Meu astrônomo predileto 😍
Privileged to share a birthday with this legend!
A legend in stupidity.
Carl Sagan "The Cosmos is all that is or was or ever will be."
Carl Sagan, "I can’t imagine anyone denying the existence of the laws of nature, but I don’t know of any compelling evidence for the old man in the sky."
More from the dumbass, "It’s perfectly possible that the universe is infinitely old and therefore uncaused. In fact, there are detailed cosmological models that hold such a view and that are consistent with everything we know. To my mind, it seems not fully satisfactory to say that there was a first cause. That seems to postpone dealing with the problem rather than solving it. If we say “God” made the universe, then surely the next question is, “Who made God?” If we say “God” was always here, why not say the universe was always here? If we say that the question “Where did God come from?” is too tough for us poor mortals to understand, then why not say that the question of, “Where did the universe come from?” is too tough for us mortals? In what way, exactly, does the God hypothesis advance our knowledge of cosmology? What predictions does it make on which the hypothesis will stand or fall?"
from: www.uscatholic.org/articles/202001/god-and-carl-sagan-cosmos-big-enough-both-them-31939
Read the article. Have a vomit bag or trash can nearby for what a hypocritical, lying, mocking, disgusting, foolish person he was.
Now, Carl the dumbass NEVER can get around these laws and what the lead to...
Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.
....yet the buffoon thinks creation happened naturally, but the idiot says, "What predictions does it make on which the hypothesis will stand or fall?" as the crap-for-brains ignores the CLEAR science that creation had to happen by God supernaturally! Still the fool who ignores the laws farted out, "I don’t know of any compelling evidence for the old man in the sky." Notice his mocking God, "man in the sky" as if that makes him look smart as he completely ignores the evidence.
His question, "Who made God?" is as dumb as he is.
So in his way of foolish thinking, if a supernatural creator created the natural realm, then that supernatural creator who created the natural realm with its natural laws has then become also bound by those natural laws the supernatural creator created. So explain why a supernatural creator is also bound by the laws the supernatural creator created. Or, show how smart you are and just give your science for creation happening naturally and don't forget to give your science how the natural laws were created, too. If he wanted to act smart, it may be a good idea to actually show you are.
Sagan the dumbass will at some point face his Maker for his judgment of what he believed in this life. His extreme shame and regret was all his choice. He wanted to be a hypocritical dumbass. Then he'll be thrown into the lake of fire. It will be his 'The End' and be remembered no more. ALL his choice and for others who follow that fool.
👍👍 🎂🎂 ⭐⭐
RIP CS
You will be forever missed.

Just wonderful! I never seen these lectures!! Was this on the BBC?
Yes.
Yes it was , now on channel 4 and have been watered down for idiots
key find
Sagan. I missing you.
Here I am with multiple tv channels and the entire internet at my disposal, and I am watching a Carl Sagan lecture from 1977. This says something about my life, and more importantly, it says everything about Mr. Sagan.
My dog is howling at the music in the beginning
44:47 Lol Sagan holding a picture of Canvey Island
where can i find other christmas lectures in youtube ?
