Whoever posted this and then wrote this:

"To help stop the madness and move humanity into the next phase of our evolution,"

has misunderstood the purpose of this clip.

Is that so? Check out the links in the description of this video if you believe that.

As I said - you have misunderstood the purpose of this clip.

That's not much of a comment, "You are wrong." And then, "As I said, you are wrong."

goddamit dude--it's such an amazing and powerful clip. he steps into the pond that he has just said contains the ashes of four million people, scoops up the mud and says, "you have to touch people"

and then that fucking 'yo' thing at the completely destroys a moment of pathos. seriously. what the fuck.

@CarloTheGambino "only the uk could ..." ... sounds like something Hitler would have said of Germany.

@Boldenberg give or take

[novadrian]

Oh dear. It was all going so well until you decided to tamper with what must be one of the greatest documentary series ever. Just back and watch the entire series. Something might go in.

[Boldenberg]

[CarloTheGambino]

a Great British legend, only the UK could produce a mind like Bronowski

@jjdecani Do you understand that my point had nothing to do with Bronowski's philosophising. Do you?

[jjdecani]

@lynchie3000 Do you understand that this has not the slightest thing to do with the point Bronowski is making? Do you?

This should have been shown and shown again at the beginning of the George W. Bush administration as the certitude of the dogma of the modern American christian right wing was no less destructive, yes in pure numbers, but not in magnitude to those impacted.
