It's not about him agreeing with the Christians. But why does he, and the host Melissa Harris-Perry, have to be such a snotty jerk about it? Because for them it's not about the science, it's about the partisan political jabs.

Ahh, Science.

Well I won’t be sniggering or giggling at him the day he has to bow the knee before God in the Great White Throne Judgement. If I’m aware of it, I’ll be deeply, deeply sad and sorry for him. God says He’ll wipe away our tears (Christians), so I don’t think I’ll be aware of it, or I’d definitely have sorrow and tears for him.

I don't really know why any Christian would be upset with Bill Nye, the not very funny comedian; as an agnostic and retired scientist, I suggest you just consider the source.

Bill Nye is not an authority on any aspect of science. He has a bachelor's engineering degree which he received a number of years ago, and which he has never really used in any applied setting. There is also no evidence that he's made any effort to keep whatever scientific training he ever received current, beyond perhaps reading fiction magazines like Popular Science.

Many of his "scientific" pronouncements are nonsense, quite a few laughably so. What he knows of Quantum Mechanics he seems to have learned from The Dao of Physics or some other execrable popular source.

The fact that Leftists would parade such a non-entity as an authority tells you all you need to know about the disregard in which they hold actual scientific inquiry, and their own scientific sophistication.

Bill Nye is a jerk, a moron, and a know nothing. So, a perfect spokesman for left-wing causes.

What did you expect? Harris Perry is a washed up, blubbering racist with less brain cells than Al Sharpton... and Nye is a relic of that weird period where people who weren’t part of the T.V. ‘in-crowds’ made their money on the margins as entertainers for children.
Just so everyone is aware, Nye does not appear to have a degree or any kind of education in the fields he is wheeled out to discuss as if he’s some kind of expert, be it biology or climatology. He has a degree in mechanical engineering...
And don’t think I’m engaging in academic idol worship. I know degrees are hyped up to be something they’re not, but when people bring out this man as if he is some sort of professor... HE’S NOT! He’s a fraud, the man is Wonder Bread pretending to be a Shepherd Loaf, and his sneering demeanor and bizarre bow tie fetish are all the more reason to switch over whenever he’s brought onto a show.

In his case he is playing to the snotty hipster millennials, whose “ironic” fawning over him as some science genius that they watched as little kids, has even made him believe their BS.

Those brats have turned into Christian-bashing loons masquerading as “atheists”, and he is right in there for all the “likes”, “+1”, and $$$ that he can milk.

So Bill, amuse us and list some of that overwhelming proof. How about a single transitory fossil.

“it’s not about the science, it’s about the partisan political jabs.”

Exactly.

This whole “debate” is a big sham. It’s never about science.

Love these “scientists” who snickers at others all the while voicing their concern about climate change.

I have a problem with Bill Nye’s stupid religion - liberalism. Because it IS a religion.

I have to admit, I used to love his science videos for my 4th graders because they reinforced my lessons. He had a huge library of videos and they were very informative and held their attention, and the kids remembered the material. I never saw anything on them that I objected to, but I stayed away from anything having to do with ecology.
