Bill Nye: Anti-abortion laws are based on ‘ignorance’

Conveying his ideas via an educational video, the 59-year-old science educator urges lawmakers to “stop telling women what to do with their bodies” and consider the scientific facts behind reproduction. Every woman who has had a fertilized egg pass through her?

Off the back off all this, Bill Nye The Science Guy has offered up his two cents: they’re all a pack of idiots. Recommending or insisting on abstinence has been completely ineffective.

“Every guy who’s sperm has fertilized an egg and then it didn’t become a human?” “We have so many more important things to be dealing with, we have so many other problems”, Nye said.

Nye goes on to explain how various arguments submitted by anti-abortion activists have been scientifically debunked, and that new studies on conception challenge numerous common understandings.

He hand books one within the concepts of how human being copy and also utilizing the stringent pointers of of when you’re life span starts, Nye target the duplicity of those people who advertising campaign against infertility permission.

Nye explains that in the eyes of science, it’s not valid to say that life begins at fertilization because eggs are fertilized all the time, but it must actually attach to the uterine wall in order to become a pregnancy and that doesn’t always happen just because an egg is fertilized.

In Big Think’s video, which now has over 400,000 views on multiple platforms, Nye addresses the belief – held by many conservative politicians – that abortion is murder and that abortion providers are criminals. Restrictions on birth control and abortion don’t have a positive impact on women’s health, either.

So I just really encourage you to not tell women what to do and not pursue these laws that really are in nobody’s best interest.

“To squander resources on this argument based on bad science, on just lack of understanding is very frustrating”, Nye says in the Big Think video, notes The Washington Post. “I mean, she has rights over this, especially if she doesn’t like the guy that got her pregnant”.
