TV Networks Refuse to Renew Neil DeGrasse Tyson’s Cosmos for a Season Two
With only nine episodes, Cosmos has greatly angered the moral majority of America. It is one thing to espouse bizarre theories of ‘magical’ Big Bang explosions that come from nothing and try to claim that human life started with endosymbiotic bacteria that evolved to a species that can contemplate colonizing mars* with space ships, but to air such things on television to a captive audience, is just patently criminal and unfair.
Seth McFarlane, the creator of controversial children’s cartoon South Park, is no stranger to twisting the truth to his own design and manipulating the weak minded to influence their future decisions. Cosmos is marketed to the innocent, to the laypeople of America and kids who want to see Neil DeGrasse Tyson zoom around space in his fancy “Ship of the Imagination”, a CGI Fx that is just as fake as all the glitzy theories he throws around as fact in every episode.
With the type of eye-candy he uses in his spinoff children’s cartoon series Futurama, Seth McFarlane knows how to capture the mind of children. He then uses the boomy, soothing bellows of Neil DeGrasse Tyson’s baritone narrative to woo housewives into watching this show, while husbands are left watching it as well to see what all the fuss is about.
All across the nation, this dangerous show has captivated good, Christian nuclear families and it has confused their understanding of Creationism with unverified scientific ‘fact’. And it is that fact that makes this show so dangerous and unfit for the airwaves.
I personally think the fire tornado that struck a Missouri town who refused to cancel Cosmos last week scared tv executives. They knew that if they continued to air a show that so many righteous people are against, that nature itself starts unleashing supernatural fury, that the show is just too much and should be cancelled.
My prayers will be answered on June 9th and I can only hope and pray that not too many minds were ruined due to this horrible, fake show.
*mars is not capitalized in this article because the name of the planet is a Romeo-Wiccan Illuminati conspiracy to get everyone to accept the name of ‘Mars’ as a fact of science, when in reality mars was a false god of war and most likely just a demon trying to make humans sin during the height of the Greek and Roman empires.
You’re an idiot. First of all Seth McFarlane has nothing to do with either south park or futurama. Second of all the Bible is not fact despite what you were raised on. There is little to no evidents of a garden of eden. Also biology suggest that humans would have a hard time surviving with such a narrow gene pool to spawn from. Not once but apparently again after the great flood.
Cosmos presents what can be proven or theorized. Sure some of what he says might be disproven in the future its the best we have to go on. Also he doesn’t knock other theories. He says question everything. If we find the garden of eden and other evidence in the creationist theory than there is no doubt that will be universally accepted, but until then we go off of what we have and what we have is a lot of telescopes and particle accelerators.

What is wrong with a different viewpoint? There is and always will be two sides of a coin… THE SAME COIN. There are “rules” that governs the universe and everything around us. I don’t think God would give us these rules and the refuse to follow them as well. Science explores these rules, they don’t make them. Do as I say and not as I do… Not my God and not your’s ether. You and people like you fort up around the constitution when your rights are being violated but if it’s someone with a different point of view/opinion you call them vile and evil. I think your viewpoint SUCKS but I don’t stand at your pulpit and denounce you. If you and your right winged hypocrites don’t like the show then don’t watch or support it and leave the rest of us the HELL ALONE. God bless your sorry ass.

I dont deny that having a different viewpoint isn’t always a bad thing, but when you completely denounce the existence of something so blatantly existent, then it completely undermines any reliability you once had. In the author’s case, they decided to believe that Mars is not real. Either way, this whole article is satirical and is made just to get reactions just like this.

This show should not be dangerous. The only reason it is dubbed as so is to prtect the feelings of the religious community (who I will not insult even though I am athiest) and the pockets of the companies whi enjoy spewing co2 into out atmosphere everyday. Cars, planes, factories and power plants producing co2 shpuld be banned from operating until a safer alternative is discovered.

WTF? is right. How could you possibly deny the things in this show? This isn’t an opinion but rather fact. There are things that could be just theories like life coming from mars but it was a theory unlike the Bible which are just stories. If you really think that the world was created in 7 days and a God just placed us here then you really need to rethink your life. Maybe a God did create this Universe but he didn’t do it the way the Bible says. How can you possibly deny the research and science that proves it but just believe something that is written in a book over two thousand years ago?

I am saddened that this is the argument put forth by a “news organization”. The editor should be fired for such blatant lack of fact-checking, but they should also fire the writer based on his lack of understanding of the subject matter. If belief takes the place of facts, then why should a person believing they could fly not take the leap? We call those people mentally unstable. If your God gave you thought and freewill, then that God must have also given the ability to determine that flying is not in your nature. Being narrow-minded and short-sighted has held us back for a millennia because we chose to follow the practices of our ancestors instead of continuing to learn off of their knowledge. While Cosmos comes off as “preachy”at times, I felt it offered valid information to substantiate its theories and facts.

Of course it is ever so much better to have fairy tales that the Sun goes around the Earth and both are only 6000 years old. As for evolution, my four-footed friends are far more ornamental on the family tree than creationist crackpots. They pretend radioactive decay rates have been divinely tinkered and distant stars created with light already on its way to us so everything seems old. I prefer Einstein’s comment: “Subtle is the Lord, but He is not malicious.” By the creationist account He acts more like the Opposition.

This is, by far, the biggest load of crap I’ve ever come across on the internet. Seth Macfarlane didn’t create South Park OR Futurama (in fact, the shows have two different creators; neither of which are Seth Macfarlane). And, a “theory” in science doesn’t have the same meaning that it does to a moron like this guy. Gravity is “only a theory”. Should we start telling kids that gravity isn’t real either? Somebody needs to get their shit together and read a book or two before they write an article filled with a bunch of dumb shit.

Athiests, you cannot prove there is no God, so saying such is purely unscientific, making you all hypocrites. Bible thumpers, you attempt to criticize science because it explains away the fairy tale doctrine that you have been trained to accept as fact. The truth is, science is the language of God, and the Bible was written for those who don’t have the ability to think and make moral choices for themselves. Personally, I reserve my judgement of God based on the things he has shown me, and his existence is indisputable. Don’t sully His name because religious nut-jobs, such as the author of this article, misrepresent Him in ludicrous ways. If you shun God because of another human’s ignorance, you are just as ignorant. Why do you smite God’s name because man has chosen to use Him as a beacon in order to claim power, that is not a sin of God but a sin of man. The extremists on both sides of the spectrum always come across as foolish, because you are all just repeating what you have been convinced of by another man who preyed on your mental inaptitude. Look within, use your brain independently and don’t rule out possibilities just because they are inconvenient to your way of thinking. If you want to truly know God, listen within, and don’t turn away from Him just because another man misrepresents him. The author of this article is completely misguided and brainwashed and lashes out, without a single factual statement, because he is afraid that his parish may diminish as a result. Religious institutions don’t want you to wake up and think for yourself, else they can’t get your money. Atheists spew their nonsense even though they don’t understand the Science they claim to back. A true scientific mind would never rule out the possible existence of God, and any scientist who remains open to the truth will eventually see the undeniable evidence of His existence. Then you will see that God is not what people write about in books, He is so much more than the sheep of man could ever fathom. 80% of the world is Christian only because it is the only religion that offered a reward of paradise just for believing and a punishment of hell for disbelieving. This caused feeble minded people to take the better safe than sorry approach. The truth is that God transcends any religion that claims to limit his creation. People go on blind faith and worship a book that goes against basic common sense. It is true the moral guidelines are just, but that book is not to be worshiped. The Bible even says to put no idol before God, but every religious person looks to a book to find Him when they only need to look within. Just about every time I try to have an educated conversation on religion with a religious person, they constantly cite the Bible, an the rhetoric is not only mind numbing, but reveals the sheepish nature of man. So to Atheists, I say stop being hypocritical to your own point and stop punishing God for the lies of man. To the science bashing, religious sheep, God gave you a brain with unparalleled ability, use it. Step away from what you have been trained to think and think for yourself, it may be hard at first, but with practice, it will get easier. There is one thing that is undeniable, if you are sitting at either extreme, you may need to question how you acquired your beliefs, because somewhere down the line, you have been indoctrinated. It is time to wake up. It is only when we rule out the possibilities of the universe and beyond do we truly doom ourselves to the truest form of ignorance.
