*Facepalm* It's not just "fancy pantsy words". It's discovered using the scientific method and reinforced with evidence.
Christianity doesn't directly forbid seeking scientific facts and exploring space, and he didn't say that. When he talked about religions (not just christianity) discouraging the use of science he's talking about people who believe the bible/qu'ran etc. to be literally true, and completely rejecting the incredible amount of discoveries we have made through the use of science. The point he makes at the beginning of the video is that the natural world can already provide and go far beyond the awe-inspiring things people attribute to religions/spirituality. He was stating this as his opinion with the use of facts about ages and amount of various things etc. I didn't hear any sense of sarcasm or aggressiveness that could really offend anyone.
