Miley Cyrus: Atheist!? Noooooooo

[Halfcentaur]

Halfcentaur, I cannot imagine even the most heinous of theists finding Lawrence Krauss to be vile. The man is just too damned awesome in all things to be considered vile.

Also, you gotta admit that quote is pretty friggin' awesome. Have you ever read "Atom"?

Also, she lifted it from this lecture



Love Krauss man, by all means I consider this mission accomplished.

Any man who claims a vacuum has zero point energy which causes nothing to automatically turn into something since it can't be nothing is a vile Satan!
But I digress. Krauss is a cool dude.

Joni Mitchell already did that... We are stardust, we are golden, we are billion year old carbon.

And Miley Cyrus is no Joni Mitchell!

Let me tell you something. Joni Mitchell was no Joni Mitchell. I'm telling you!

...Wait isn't that what Christians say God did?

 

[Lowpro]

Tracy Morgan? Is that you?!

 

[Halfcentaur]

...Wait isn't that what Christians say God did?

Hallelujahs!

Zero point energy? Wait! Thats the thingy that gave Syndrome his awesome powers to stop Mr. Incredible cold. Cool stuff.

So did Kraus rip off Carl Sagan ("star stuff") or Joni Mitchell ("we are stardust; we are golden. we are billion year old carbon")?

They all ripped off the B2FH paper^WP, not to mention the Alpher-Bethe-Gamow paper^WP.

When they first came to Hollywood for Hannah Montana, the two of them would drive down the freeway together to the studio each morning, and every day Miley would point out the sign that said

ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY
ATHEISTS UNITED

​

Just before moving out to Los Angeles, the whole family had been baptized together by their pastor at the People's Church in Franklin, Tennessee. "It was Tish's idea," he remembers. "She said, 'We're going to be under attack, and we have to be strong in our faith and we're all going to be baptized...'" And there, driving to work each day in the City of Angels, was this sign. "A physical sign. It could have easily said 'You will now be attacked by Satan.' 'Entering this industry, you are now on the highway to darkness...'"

Welcome, Miley Cyrus! Please feel free to join our atheist trash-picking crew the next time we go out to clean up the freeway. PM me for contact info.

I suspect Miley Cyrus was rhapsodising over the pretty, shiny stars, rather than avowing the non-existence of God.

Cyrus has taken the attack in stride and continues to prove she knows how to deal with her detractors. On March 6, Cyrus responded to the backlash:

"How can people take the love out of science and bring hate into religion so easily?" she asked, before quoting Albert Einstein. "It makes me sad to think the world is this way. Like Einstein says 'Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind.'"

But I'd be happy if I was wrong. Not only would it mean one less confused person in the world, but I confess to enjoying "The Climb" the first few times I heard it (the only song of hers I know of).

 

[arthwollipot]

Yeah - let's remember that she quoted an atheist. There's not yet any evidence that she is an atheist.

 

[Dancing David]

Chemicaly we can only confirm that somewhere around a third of the human body can reasonably be described as stardust.

?

I thought all the elements past lithium were fused in stars?

 

[arthwollipot]

How much of the human body per weight is hydrogen?

 

[quadraginta]

We are 99.99999% empty space.

Oh yeah?

Then why's it so hard to find a good parking spot? Answer me that, smarty pants!

 

[Jeff Corey]

Joni Mitchell already did that... We are stardust, we are golden, we are billion year old carbon.

And Miley Cyrus is no Joni Mitchell!

See post #33.

 

[fuelair]

Careful, you are starting to make sense.

Scrut pretty much always makes sense - it's just not always the sense others might be searching for at the time!!

ETA: not at all unlike Pillory but easier to follow.

 

[ZirconBlue]

When did we start judging someone by their religious convictions.

The 12th Century, at the latest.

So did Kraus rip off Carl Sagan ("star stuff") or Joni Mitchell ("we are stardust; we are golden. we are billion year old carbon")?

They all stole it from the Minbari.

 

[Captain_Snort]

Does this mean that us 40something men can openly walk into a shop and buy Hannah Montana cds and memorabilia?

I also noticed that in the video, christian was misspelled

 

[Accidental Martyr]

When do the public CD/DVD burnings begin?

 

[defaultdotxbe]

How much of the human body per weight is hydrogen?

10% according to this chart on wikipedia
