Carl Sagan - The Moon

An excerpt from Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot

[@innertubez]

Carl Sagan is one of the most underrated writers of all time. The way he chose and delivered words was legendary.

[@BladeRunner-td8be]

In my 64 years, there has never been another who could grab and hold my attention as Carl Sagan did. RIP Cheers

Carl sagan.. The poet of universe

[@Mikesorrento3344]

Perhaps, but Carl believed in the scientific impossibility that something came from nothing as he didn’t believe there was a master Creator. Perhaps Sagan believed books wrote themselves and buildings erected themselves. Now that is believing in fairytales. I’m thoroughly unimpressed with Sagan. I did like the way he said “billions and billions” though. That was pretty cool.

[@patkennedy2620]

@@Mikesorrento3344 Millions have been & continue to be moved by Dr Sagan’s intelligence, ability to communicate scientific principles to the masses, his imagination & writing ability. By the way, he never said Billions & billions! But most people think he did

[@Mikesorrento3344]

@@patkennedy2620 I’m sure millions and millions have been moved by Sagan. My point is that he believed in the scientific impossibility that something came from nothing. For me that’s a non starter. For being such a smart guy, he lacked wisdom and frankly, common sense. Good luck to you.

[@anonymoususer638]

@@Mikesorrento3344 Sagan used logic to address this before. If a creator created the universe, where did the creator come from? Was the creator always here? Why not skip a step and say the universe was always here? Or did the creator come from nothing, and therefore the universe could too? "In many cultures it is customary to answer that God created the universe out of nothing. But this is mere temporizing. If we wish courageously to pursue the question, we must, of course ask next where God comes from. And if we decide this to be unanswerable, why not save a step and decide that the origin of the universe is an unanswerable question? Or, if we say that God has always existed, why not save a step and conclude that the universe has always existed?" -Cosmos, Page 167

[@Mikesorrento3344]

@@anonymoususer638 Much is unprovable. What’s provable is that it is scientifically impossible that something came from nothing. God defies space and time. 1 second is equal to billions of years. Too many complexities to list. To believe there’s no Creator is to believe in fairytales. In closing, I believe the Bible. It’s been the best selling book in the history of mankind throughout the millennia. Sagan is but a mere blip in time, as we all are. He will be forgotten as we all will be. If you think the symphony of planets, atomic structure, the human eye, the billions and billions of metabolic processes occurring in you right now, or the fusion occurring in the sun are all happening like some kind of magic trick, I will leave you to your fantasy. Good luck.

Carl Sagan, the perfect specimen of a human being, for the human race, to admire. Unfortunately, for this world, there will never be another Carl Sagan.? The Voice, the appearance, the intellectual authority of mind blowing intelligence, has forever astounded me in my lifetime. I am but a lonely speck in one of the greatest minds that ever lived …… in all this vastness in my empty brain, I so much admire and respect this intellectual genius of our time? in all my obscurity and my darkness. Carl Sagan was the light I was searching for. Thank you so much Mr. Carl Sagan, for all your kind words about human kind. as you said, there is no one out there to save us from ourselves. To anyone out there that is a Carl Sagan fan.Take care Stay safe Keep warm🙏❤️🌍🚀🛸🚀

Throughout my life's journey, I've heard many religious/political prophecies. My common sense side of my brain, after considering these prophecies... would finally reject these beliefs as dogmatic nonsense. Professor Carl Sagan, poetic words of wisdom, makes sense to me on every level.

[@christophergood558]

[@deathbydeviceable]

The prophecy was just a dream they were trying to avoid "I was just an only child of the universe And then I found you, and then I found you You are the sun and I am just the planets Spinning around you, spinning around you" "I am a collapsing star with tunnel vision But only for you, but only for you My head is stripped, just like a screw that's been tightened too many times When I think of you, when I think of you" "I'm here, at the beginning of the end Oh, the end of infinity with you I'm done with having dreams, the thing that I believe Oh, you drain all the fear from me" kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYqkcqyLe7FkfbM

Einstein of that genre.

[@todds7057]

He was more involved with basic science,to quantum physics ,physics Astro engineering ,astronomy, and the biggest role in this situation religion in religions, and also the piece of the puzzle extra terrestrial life, these topics he would break them down little bit easier for most of us for people that did not understand to people that were very advanced to the basics to this taken a class and college or some knowledge and history and school that we've been taught or learned and never evolved any further than what speculation you might think of in your mind like the Milky Way our solar system Stars Earth simple things of that nature and he from that to life and he made it where he was so infatuated with his job and his work that his facts or 99.9% pretty much true greenhouse effect was a major topic if you look into that he was very concerned about that so we don't keep avoiding this matter for another hundreds of years because people tend to think oh we'll just let it go there's no need and just blow it off and not even care or pay attention to it that's anything in our system things that are unheard of false information propaganda hype, he's very advanced for his time.Yes Einstein it was extremely intelligent it was a very smart man and his own fairies and hypothesis and certain symptomatic material that he used or known or learned and curl Saigon amongst others remaster those soft walls in those a lot of great scientists and Men of different astronomy of our planet itself just take it for science to physics they were tons of breakthroughs through people being more advanced and updating more advanced and other people knowing facts versus opinions versus argument and debate of something they truly did not understand and most these men were extremely understanding and the more advanced we got and developed the more power that we had and healed not just one man lots of different as for women as well, even being obsolete, it's like you have a puzzle with different people that were designed to make the puzzle develop the puzzle put the together the puzzle shape the puzzle modify make the material Etc. It all comes with a complex of abilities, something with just made out of nothing I just put what I thought on here to you and whoever else reads it and no add-on or try to correct me or agree with me there's always going to be a debate or an argument but what I find in my mind it's extremely amazing that how we think when we necessarily have no clue even if we think we know and still don't know and that goes for anything and everything not just our planet what's the purpose of just us a rarity of us humans being here when saying like Carl was saying Carl Sagan if there are aliens and our plan has been here 6.3 billion years where are they and if there are why is there less or more?!.. even with the communications and radios telecommunications we have in space orbiting and some being all over even have found rare communications and some speculations if there was and there is ,why are we last to be knowledge ?on anything and everything?...if there is any sort of life,after Life! Sometimes religion and science contradict themselves if we didn't have one then what are we need another and that goes to basically a lot of different theories and speculations and why we wouldn't have subjects brought up of the matter and matters today, everybody has their own conclusion and theory and different formalities of why we are here! We can argue, debate,come to terms on the higher more advanced technical minds of ages to come.from the advanced movements from what we know and as we understand them! Rather you are Carl Sagan Albert Einstein you can say the greatest minds that helped evolve centuries! And decades to times frames where we had,have,or just speculation! Are race is extremely intelligent rare, species that could do more then we think of,Thank for listening to my thoughts and what i have speculated known thought and even just learned recently, some things I knew were there all along and it's truly amazing to find other people that think like you or you think like them in different ways we are all here on this planet I think it's one big paradox of the way you view something speculate something have a theory or just a thought and opinion you just can't say that person doesn't know what they're talking about and another person can point out and say that person is a period of Genius they know what they're talking about and you can relate to some of their creativity on points and thoughts and facts or whatever it is in your mind cuz truly nobody really knows and if they do when they kind of ruin it for all of us to know why truly we are here everything to me is or I should say have a value to it a purpose it's just a slow evolving time puzzle that's sorry being put together or generating into something more , sometimes we contradict ourselves but sometimes it's hard not to when you get lost in the same pattern because truly and honestly if you're talking about a subject you can get off course and get back on course or you can talk about something and repeat of that's been talking about for thousands and thousands of years hundreds of years that so no conclusion no expectations no value no purpose and then there's the other way around and it keeps advancing and getting further with technology and if you don't truly know something and you just hear where you get the wrong information from the people and power that want to continuously tell you the wrong information make you break you brainwash you there's so many ways around that you just got to keep searching and finding, if you're at all this thank you it was my first time really ever speaking on a topic that I actually consider myself making sense maybe making progress in some sense and it interested me quite a bit and I've always been extremely interested in a lot of different things but I have my close thoughts that I don't share why I think we're here and now I'm more open to it more subjected to it a little bit more knowledge to it it can actually have a little bit more of a conversation with it for it thank you.....

[@Mikesorrento3344]

@chris Bentley, you actually just supported what I said. Sagan was an atheist. He didn’t believe in a Creator. He was quite vocal about that. There really is no need to discuss further. Sagan believed something came from nothing, which is a scientific impossibility. At the end of the day, Sagan violated this fundamental truth. Sagan was a well spoken windbag. That’s it.

[@Mikesorrento3344]

@chris Bentley,, please look up definition of atheist. Also research what Sagan has self admittedly said. One can come to only one conclusion. Please describe for me, in the natural world, where an entity (animal, human, house, book etc) was created all by itself. In other words, please show me something that just magically appeared without being created by someone or something. Give me concrete examples, not just platitudes of words simply strung together. Who knows? You may change my mind. My mind is open to new things. Maybe you should keep your mind open as well. Until then, we must agree to disagree. I’m ok with that. Good luck my friend.
