Some People (You Know Who) Are Freaking Idiots...

Bill Nye in Waco

The Emmy-winning scientist angered a few audience members when he
criticized literal interpretation of the biblical verse Genesis 1:16,
which reads: “God made two great lights — the greater light to govern
the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the
stars.”

He pointed out that the sun, the “greater light,” is but one of
countless stars and that the “lesser light” is the moon, which really
is not a light at all, rather a reflector of light.

A number of audience members left the room at that point, visibly angered by what some perceived as irreverence.

“We believe in a God!” exclaimed one woman as she left the room with three young children.
