Science Reign of Pain
Neil deGrasse Tyson Thinks Science Can Reign Supreme Again

Dr. Tyson is commendable as a public advocate for science, popular science, that is, which is valorized as spectacular success at benefiting humans, the planet and even the universe.
Popular science omits the devastation advanced science and its offshoot technology has caused to humans, the planet and even the universe, now probing the Moon and Mars for doing to those what it has done to Earth.
Advanced science has evolved into a Dr. Frankenstein monster ravaging and slaughtering and genociding with inventions of once unimaginable horror, at imagined as frightening fairy tales posted on cathedral walls and within illustrated codices of monks worst nightmares.
In the modern era it is science, much of it top secret, of the mushroom clouds of atomic bombs, of intercontinental missiles, of globe-prowling submarines, of stealth bombers, of bunker busters, and chem-bio-rad poisons, of holocaust factories of mass deaths, of strip mining and fracking and endless production of climate destroying machines and factories, of pestilence of deadly addictive drugs, of excessively dense cities dividing citizens into economic haves and have-nots.
Yet the school children are bussed to the Museums of Natural History to gaze up highly entertaining displays and hands-on gadgetry among cartoonish plaster and metal and plastic fake animals and fake panoramas of cultures long destroyed by the machine age tools of diabolical scientists totally consumed with lust for knowledge to maximize pain.
