Only six or eight percent of scientists believed that God did not guide the process of evolution? How do those geniuses know that God does not exist? God is bigger and smarter than Ronald Bailey and a host of Phds.

Also, conservative-promoted abstinence education does not work, therefore Democrats are smarter? Once again, Ronald Bailey is an idiot. Sure if you throw kids into the cesspool of sex that we call public high schools, they will wind up having sex even if a teacher tells them no. But telling them to use condoms causes lots of problems, too. I cannot believe the “science” and “studies” on this. There are too many uncontrollable variables at work — bad parenting, filthy rap music and everything else.

The one thing that does work for sure — and Bailey the libertarian will never, ever admit this — kids who go to good Christian schools with both parents and teachers as dedicated Christians — do far better than public school kids. Even if they don’t toe the politically correct line on evolution.

You mean only six or eight percent of scientists believe that a supernatural deity DID guide the process of evolution.

The very large majority of those geniuses would actually say, "I have never seen evidence for a supernatural god and therefore I have no reason to believe one exists." Perhaps a subtle difference to you, but it's actually a rather large one in the real world. In other words, they wouldn't say, "I know god doesn't exist." They'd say, "I have no evidence to believe god exists."

To quote a little known science professor, Cornelius Krasel; "Science is a game we play with God, to find out what his rules are."

Because modern science, so-called, starts with the assumption that there is no God.
