Bill Nye Said What about the Moon?!!! Time to giterdone!


Ok, I can understand when a 2 year old gets confused and maybe a bit flustered by basic science but adults? Oh come ON! Have you heard the latest incident? My nephew posted this link to BSALEART.com with the headline:
  • Bill Nye Boo'd In Texas For Saying The Moon Reflects The Sun
Oh yeah, you read right! And there is more of this idiocy! Again from the article:
  • Nye was in town to participate in McLennan Community College's Distinguished Lecture Series
  • (Waco Texas residents) were "visibly angered by what some perceived as irreverence," according to the Waco Tribune.
Nye was referring to Genesis 1:16 that speaks about a greater and lesser light, (the greater light of day and the lesser light of night, or moonlight) people in the audience were enraged, with several leaving the lecture all together, when in passing Nye said that moonlight is not a light at all, but only a reflector.
