What he meant was as clear as a bell right here:
this does not mean that it takes another eight minutes for this light to reach us because these molecules are already present.
By "constant energy" he probably was thinking that the "molecules" of light that are already here (and waiting to smile
on you in the morning when you wake up!) are constantly giving off energy. The passage above shows he did not understand that photons are always in motion. His lack of the most elementary education is breathtaking; even by seventh grade one would know these basic facts of which he was ignorant.
