This is the video that most inspired me to work on fighting religion through science.
Please if you do not look at anything else or make a posting. View this video from TED. It is intended to get you quietly changing your conceptions about science FOR EVERYONE, ALL or MOST OF THE TIME and in EVERY UNIVERSE! . Just do not keep quiet about it .
The explanation of the equivalence of play with science processes is classic, as is the "job in Hand" to change people's perception of science. Please can you tell us how your perception of science changed as you got educated .
In fact, it starts at the very beginning of the video with a game . Have a pencil and paper ready and just enjoy.
Good stuff...but old (date produced is 2012)...and despite the millions that have viewed it ( I think i read 51 million) there seems to have had little effect.
Good effort, David!
It is exactly what I am trying to do, and I believe it can be applied at all levels and in very diverse situations. It is a great pity that these initiatives have had little visible effects. If you search for the BOOKS of Beau Lotto you can see how he has adapted his academic life with the aid of his publishers and he now concentrates on commercial application but still about changing perceptions.
What we have to do with religion is change the perceptions which led people to do what was commanded . Then offer a complete non religion alternative lifestyle which is logical open and kind but critical too.A big task.
It does not
@Mcflewster Too big a task indeed. We evolve...and we're moving to slowly. You and I seem to be alive in "end times"...but Carl put it well....
