While I’d agree with you I’d submit that a lot of the science community has odd feelings about Bill Nye so I can see how that can exacerbate people into writing things like this. Maybe they wouldn’t normally believe that and would agree with you but this circumstance changed that. Idk
- toomuchtodo 9y agoI don’t care for Bill Nye or Neil deGrasse Tyson personally, but science needs every advocate in these dark times.
- craig1f 9y agoA bad advocate undoes the work of a good advocate. Bill Nye doesn't really use scientific methods. His last show was a mess, because he made assertions he didn't back up. Bill Nye has done good work on the past, but he is undoing the work he has done lately.
- toomuchtodo 9y agoPerfect is the enemy of good enough. We have congressional reps who proclaim there is no global warming because it still snows (while holding up a snowball on the floor of Congress). Again, every advocate is needed, even if they make mistakes (as we all do).

- oh_sigh 9y agoIf you get children pumped up about science and the natural world, does it matter if you don't use scientific methods?
- 1337biz 9y agoI agree with you on questioning Bill Nye's credential to become such a prominent science figure. But the article is just a ridiculous hit job trying to poison the scientific community.
- JustSomeNobody 9y agoWhat odd feelings are those? After all, they've given him a handful of honorary science doctorates.
