A recent clip from Big Think featured science educator Bill Nye and his thoughts on Creationism and Evolution. Bill explains that, ‘When you have a portion of the population that doesn’t believe in the general understanding of science’, or evolution, ‘it holds everybody back’. Bill says it’s okay for grownups to deny evolution but asks not to force the denial of evolution on their children. Bill ends with, ‘You know, in another couple of centuries that world view, I’m sure, will be, it just won’t exist. There’s no evidence for it’. This clip has been seen over 1 million times since it was posted last Thursday. Just three days after the clip released, ‘RIP Bill Nye The Science Guy‘ started trending on twitter. The rumor was proved false and Bill Nye is alive and well.
