Oh, yeah, "Creationism is a real cancer on Conservatism"...yeah, uh sure. Keep telling yourself that. And God I hope you don't keep that tagline, unless you feel like getting hate mail in your Freepmail.
Creationism destroys the credibility of conservatism. We have gotten where we are because conservatism was supported by the evidence, even when the leftists argued against it.
But evolution is fact, deal with it.
My canned response to this sort of nonsense follows, as copied from my FR homepage.
Here's something I posted online here on a thread where creationists were squealing at being the target of a crowd of liberal glitterati one enchanted evening at a fund-raiser for the American Museum of Natural History:
I've been telling you creationists not to give the Tom Brokaws of the world a chance to save science and science education from you. Going after science and science education was a bad idea.Here's the theory. Don't do a bad thing. If you don't, then the Bad Guys don't get to play Good Guy while stopping you. They don't get to tar all of conservatism with the brush of being composed of antiscience witch doctors.
This is becoming the national issue I've wanted to somehow prevent. You're going to kill us in 06 or 08 or both.
