Neil deGrasse Tyson is speaking about intelligent design, including the &#8220;fine tuning&#8221; argument for the existence of God. He&#8217;s not so much debunking it as he is making fun of it. It&#8217;s been debunked by most rational people and the court system, so that would just be a rehash. Tyson joyfully ridicules the absurdity of both ID and the fine-tuning argument with examples that highlight the ridiculousness of each. It&#8217;s about five minutes long and very entertaining.<\/p>\n<p>httpv:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=C1cKD93W3yg<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just came across this today.
