The religious right continues it's crusade of complaints against Neil Degrasse Tyson's TV program COSMOS, finding something to hate about it every week. I have to wonder, if they dislike the program so much, why are they still watching? It's a program about science, so why are they enraged over the subject matter? Instead of ranting and demanding equal time on his program to present their point of view, (imagine if Mr. Grasse demanded equal time on Pat Robertson's show), why not just stop watching?
This week, they are upset that, in his recent program on electricity, Mr. Tyson explained radio waves and how birds' brains are wired to use the earth's electromagnetic field to help them stay on course during yearly migrations. Yes, they found even this to be onerous. Electricity is anti-Christian. Who knew...besides the Amish?
Mr Grasse's response to their continuing fixation on his program is the best:
