How Carl Sagan "Predicted" 2020... in 1995

Teacher or professor: Genetically Modified Skeptic
Subject: Critical Thinking
Content of the Lesson: Did Carl Sagan see 2020 coming 25 years ago? Here's why some people think he did. A certain excerpt from The Demon Haunted World has gone viral countless times in the last few years, often being called prophetic and frightening. What does it really mean, though? Did Carl Sagan predict the future? Science denial, conspiracy theories, power disparities, media influence, and authoritarianism were all things he showed great concern over, but did he have sufficient reason for concern in his own time? This Demon Haunted World review and discussion is my way of continuing the mission of Carl Sagan, Ann Druyan, and their peers. As Sagan wrote just before his internet-famous words in DHW, "Not explaining science seems to me perverse. When you're in love, you want to tell the world." ***Click here to listen to The Demon Haunted World (or anything else) for free with a 30-day free trial from Audible*** http://audibletrial.com/gmskeptic -------------------------------------------FOLLOW------------------------------------------- Twitter: https://twitter.com/gm_skeptic Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GMSkeptic/ Discord: https://discord.gg/b2tABbV -------------------------------------------SUPPORT------------------------------------------- Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GeneticallyModifiedSkeptic PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/GMSkeptic -------------------------------------------Resources for atheists in need------------------------------------------- Find a Secular Therapist: https://www.seculartherapy.org Recovering from Religion helps connect those who are leaving or have left their religion with support, resources and community: https://www.recoveringfromreligion.org/#rfr-welcome Resources for Ex-Mu’s: https://exmuslims.org/join-us/ This video contains 100% therapeutic grade skepticism.* *This statement has not been evaluated by the FDA
