Fox News Obituary Trashes Kurt Vonnegut



Uploaded by: LiberalViewer
Video Description:
The Fox News obituary of Kurt Vonnegut airing the day after his death seemed particularly harsh to me, but I may be especially sensitive because I'm a big Vonnegut fan. I've uploaded some clips from the Fox News obituary for you to see and decide for yourself.
FYI, I tracked down the origin of the ancient Greek admonition "Not to speak evil of the dead" to Diogenes Laertius quoting Chilon (pictured at the beginning of this video) quoting Aesop at: http://www.classicpersuasion.org/pw/diogenes/dlchilon.htm The photo of Chilon itself comes from Nicolas at

1. Evolution ... ( 3 days ago by Termite551)
1. Evolution doesn't say there are half-monkey people, unless you are referring to transitional forms, which we already have. 2. "Macro-evolution" isn't even a scientific term, it's a stupid term made by creationists attempting to distinguish long-term evolution from short-term, irrefutable evolution. Ever had a vaccine? Evolution. If you admit that small scale evolution is possible, and that we DO indeed have modern medicine, than you have already admitted that "macro-evolution" is true.
3. There is a near ... ( 3 days ago by Termite551)
3. There is a near complete consensus in the scientific community as to whether or not the theory of evolution is correct. There are people who are debating specifics in the theory every single day, but that doesn't change the fact that they accept the theory. 4. Evolution is the subject of THOUSANDS of peer reviewed papers, and every part of it has been examined and put under the microscope numerous times. If it is false, it must be a giant conspiracy.
Not just a giant ... ( 3 days ago by durge666)
Not just a giant conspiracy, but the largest conspiracy in the history of the planet. For nearly every scientist to all be in on some horrible conspiracy to deceive the world's population is just completely ludicrous. It's sad that there are people who are actually saying that that's what's happening. Words cannot express this level of stupid *facepalms*

MAcro evolution is a scientific term, although vastly avoided my most because it has never been proven and can't be becuase it is a lie. And husken I have read literally hundreds of papers and research on from pro evolution scientist. You seem proud that you have found me one. And actually Darwin said that africans are the missing link between apes and humans. He noted their thicker skulls, smaller brain mass, and the frontal positioning in the cranium. Once again I do not agree with darwin.

"I have read literally hundreds of papers and research on from pro evolution scientist"
This claim would seem plausible... if you at least knew what the word "evolution" means or at least understood some of it's mechanisms, but clearly it's a lie from how retardedly bias against actual learning you really are. Also, your claim on Darwin is two bullshit arguments lumped together. Dar
win didn't say that, and the person who DID say that was a man with a show, which happened after Darwin.
Anyways, Charles ... ( 3 days ago by sonic8005)
Anyways, Charles Darwin is dead, he has been out of the scientiffic loop for a while. Saying Charles Darwin was wrong does not eliminate all the evidence supporting his hypothesis that has been gathered thus far.

The sad thing about your final question is, I'd have to say Fox News. :(
The reason I ... ( 2 days ago by Husken90)
The reason I referred to that specific article is because that article is about the evolution vs. creation debate in schools. There are ofcourse way more articles on evolution but they would only be aimed at a specific case while this one is more relevant to what we're talking about. I also have a hard time believing that you read all these papers and that you're a science major. If that is true then you should know how hard it is for an idea to become a theory.
In that case you ... ( 2 days ago by Husken90)
In that case you would have known more about evolution in general, which, so far ,you haven't shown. I'm a first year BA-student in a social science study and I would seem unlikely that I would already know more about the methodology of science than you, wouldn't you agree?
Darwin also ... ( 2 days ago by andrewfay07)
Darwin also classified homosexuals as a sub class of human species. Ever wonder why homosapien and homosexual sound so much alike? I am a grad from michigan tech with a dergree in ecology. no I have not read them all but I have read ALOT. Most of them relatively saying the same thing. Srri abot mi sht enlsh. I don't use spellcheck and I don't proofread when I right to you people. I have neither the time nor the inclination.
"he (Darwin) has ... ( 2 days ago by andrewfay07)
"he (Darwin) has been out of the scientific loop for a while." He isn't! Evolutionist still use his papers and research in every debate and discussion. That is one of my points, thanks for clarifying sonic!If one does not believe in God you still have to put something in His place. There must be an eternal power. What is it for you, matter? energy? Mans mind is finite, and cannot grasp the infinite. Scientist won't admit this because most of the scientific community is too arrogant.
Homosapien, and ... ( 2 days ago by TianSan)
Homosapien, and Homosexual come from different origins.
In Latin Homo means human. In Greek Homo means same. Homograph, Homonym, Homophone - meaning same spelling/same sounding(I'm sure you learned in school) Homosapien,Homohabilis - homo meaning Human, and whatever the suffix means. So please don't try to pervese that homosexual is a subspecies of
homosapiens because their prefixes are spelled the same way(Pun intended)
Who is to say that ... ( 2 days ago by TianSan)
Who is to say that "eternal power" is sentient?
If God was a brainless child, like how even children every now and puke and poop. Would you still call it God? The reason why scientists won't(I'm not going to say admit)aren't convinced that there is a God, is because there is not enough physical or logical enough explaination to prove that ther
e is one. If a God is suppose to be perfect, or all powerful, all knowing, and all good. Then by definition alone it would have to be dismissed.
You shouldn't try ... ( 2 days ago by andrewfay07)
You shouldn't try to jump in on an argument when you missed half. You entirely missed the point but that doesn't suprise me. Most liberals jump at small phrases and try to exacerbate them. I don't believe gays are a subspecies, Darwin did. Your linguistical knowledge needs some major correction. But you have proven another one of my points. Evolution and God is a philisophical debate, not a scientific one. Yet science seems determined to do it anyway, because most of USA has become godless.
Evolution has been ... ( 2 days ago by TianSan)
Evolution has been basically been proven as true.
You can be an agnostic and still believe in Evolution.
You can believe in God, and still believe in Evolution. There is no conflict there. However, being a Christian, and believing in Evolution. There IS a conflict there. And you're also wrong in thinking that the USA has become Godless. 1) Only slightly over 10% of Americans are Atheist or Agnosti
c. 2) What's wrong with being Godless? Nothing!
By the way, thanks ... ( 2 days ago by TianSan)
By the way, thanks for pointing out my linguistic knowledge needs some major correction. How about you point them out, and me not caring very much, because I was trying to get a point across, and not trying to be very accurate.
You're the one that said "Ever wonder why homosapien and homosexual sound so much alike?" When they nearly have nothing to do with each other.
Evolution shouldn't ... ( 2 days ago by TianSan)
Evolution shouldn't even be a debate. It should be accepted as true, and factual, and it is scientifically proven. Which is why it has reached Theory status.
God however is a philisophical debate. If you're the type of person that believes in the type of God that created everything in one shot, then of course you'd have a problem with evolution. Defining what God means, is philisophical.
"He isn't! ... ( 1 day ago by sonic8005)
"He isn't! Evolutionist still use his papers and research in every debate and discussion"
Wait, being dead doesn't count as "out of the loop"? Darwin had absolutely no such comment on homosexuals, this doesn't even count as a quote mine. You're obviously lying once again. You're infinitely more arrogant than the scientiffic community, because you're claiming to know more about scient
iffic concepts than people with actual degrees and have become experts in these fields you mock.
"I don't believe ... ( 1 day ago by sonic8005)

That's good, good, lie for Jesus, that'll really convert and save souls you bigoted monster who prefers lies over anything that actually exists.

Hey man, I like KV Blackbeard is my favorite But let's be real. Not everyone consideres him a "great american writer" and no matter what Fox News said about him, KV was a beat writer. He wrote from the outside, looking in. I wouldn't Fox News to bend to the left. They don't do that. But they took the time to mention him. In terms of Fox News, that shows respect. And Fox News will definitely have more of an impact this century. They're not going anywhere.

I was gonna post a elaborate response to andrew but seeing that his account has been closed it's hardly worth the effort now. Perhaps he has heard the voice of reason, but seeing his bigotry so far I doubt it.

Neither will Kurt Vonneguts books which will be read all across the world, while Fox will just be watched nationally.
