During the first Republican Presidential debate one of the moderators asked if any of the ten participants did not believe in evolution. Three raised their hands: Rep. Tom Tancredo of Colorado, Sen. Sam Brownback of Kansas and former Governor Mike Huckabee of Arkansas. Even their belief in gravity comes to question regarding visual interpretations of the Rapture which shows people floating off the ground into the sparkling Jesus filled clouds.
Along with these crazyass conservative Republicans, 48% of Americans also believe that the world was created less than 10,000 years ago with humans plopped down with dinosaurs, Neanderthals and chimpanzees. Speaking of chimpanzees, as these fine apes have not yet risen to the intellectual level of knowing God, by default they are evolutionists, which in turn makes monkeys smarter than 48% of Americans. Which if you have paid attention to American politics since 1981 is no surprise.
Sadly, ALL Democrat contenders for the White House accept both evolution and gravity which puts them out of favor with half of America. Luckily we are presently up to our earlobes in an unpopular religious war in Iraq which gives Democrats a pretty good lock on the next election. But wars come and go, and as soon THEIR GOD beats OUR GOD, back we will go to becoming the Taliban of the West.
