• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Being what, 26 according to the site, you probably know more about hippies than someone who was often called one when hippies existed for real.

That you feel compelled to debase the memory of a great man, dead six years before you started wetting diapers, to recall the memory of another great man is beyond puzzling.

There is a lot more to John Lennon than being a cool hippie, man.

On that: give peace a chance.

I agree with your statement 110%!! I was finished with this thread, but you hit my opinion dead on.

I fail to see the significance of Southpark skits and Hippies to Carl Sagan. This turn the thread has taken, in my opinion, diminishes the memory of a great scientist and teacher. I do not like closing threads, however, if this line of posting continues, I will close the thread.

Here here, On the subject of Carl Sagan (again) I should point out his book "A Candle in the Dark"
which although written crica 94/96 is still very relevant today and should be req'd reading in all High Schools. Grown ups too.
 
Carl Sagan's Borca's Brain was one of the most influential books on human development I have ever read.
