Great. And the media will try and link these nuts to the rest of us Christians. Then by extension conservatives and the GOP.

Some people will read whatever they want to into scripture. Is there any GOP official who will renounce these nuts? At the same time, take those who obsess over who is smoking what, who is sleeping with who, and those who expand the definition of being pro-life beyond being in favor of giving every child in the womb a chance at life, with them.

Precisely what do you mean by this statement?

and those who expand the definition of being pro-life beyond being in favor of giving every child in the womb a chance at life

Forget Albatross, Young Earth Creationism is straight-up the noose being used to string-up political conservatism to the entire (<30) web-generation. Crap guilt-by-association or no, if political conservatives do not rally together to disassociate themselves from these nuts soon (ideally before the next election), there is going to exist an entire generation in this country who associates ANY Republican, no matter how noble, with Young-Earth Creationist Anti-Rationalism.

Yes the media will link this to the rest of us with glee. Science textbook editors would do well to ally with all the Christian (and others) denominations who don’t have a problem with science. Unfortunately, I doubt they do that. They’d have to give up the humans are evil meme (overpopulation, global warming, etc)
