Do you think pretty much everybody is equally capable of recognizing projections when they seem them too? Pretty much, particularly if they don't have emotional attachments to the issues.

The question he asked - is Sarah Palin a Creationist? - is valid. That was never settled. The secondary question -- whether someone being a creationist should disqualify them from public office -- is very troubling to a ...Free Republic.
Nice try at sweeping bigotry under the rug.
You need to address the question in context: to what extent would her creationism (if present) inform her policy and appointment choices to such an extent that it would really screw the country? And if they would, why can't we ban liberals from public office?
Learn to think your *own* positions through several layers deeper (and without retorting by strawman or ad hominem, otherwise you may occasionally come across as a liberal mouthing memorized platitudes, even after they have become non sequiturs to the point at hand.
Cheers! Cheers!

You're missing the implication. I'll speak up.
Do you yourself really believe, accept at face value, adhere to, accept, or affirm the claim that "God was with the Nazis [as they claimed of themselves]"?
If not, why not?
If so, why?

We’re not all Catholics, Gumlegs. A Pope is just as fallible as the rest of us in this fallen world, as far as I’m concerned. I greatly admired Pope John Paul II, and believed him to be a Godly man, though.
As far as the fey little “oh, please,” you tell me how parents can raise children in their faith, with all of officialdom in opposition to doing so.

which is limited since I was born 1981 Oh! You're a child.
I have hope that you will grow out of your intellectual swashbuckling stage in time.

Sticking your fingers in your ears and screaming, "It's not science! Junk science! Make it go away!" doesn't address the problem and doesn't convince voters.Except of course when it comes to the cult of darwinism, it works just fine then metmom.

Accepting the reality of the science doesn't mean you're rejecting God (in the case of evolution) or that you want to dictate what kind of car a person drives (in the case of climate change). Likewise, accepting the reality of God doesn't make you anti-science like cm used to accuse everyone who disagreed with him of.
You're attempting to frame this in a "cultural war" context, which simply isn't valid.
It is a culture war and science is the weapon of choice with which to bludgeon Christianity with. It's being used to push religion out of schools in the name of science. It's been used to make out Christians as being ignorant and anti-progress.
The culture war is between the ideology that's hijacked science and Christianity.
It would do good for you guys to see that and rescue science from their grip. Evos refusal to do so only reinforces the idea that evos are throwing their chips in with the liberals/atheists/God haters.
You're going to have a hard time convincing anyone that you are not also liberal/atheist/God haters if you don't speak up against the abuse and misuse of science instead of justifying or excusing what they do.

Jesus Himself speaks of creation and the creation of Adam and Eve.
Or was Jesus a liar, Gumlegs?

Never been to DC, and there arent any winners in a crevo thread, just survivors.
OK, if you say so. But, if youve never been to DC how do you know there are no winners? (Ill avoid the obvious rejoinder)

Were not all Catholics, Gumlegs. A Pope is just as fallible as the rest of us in this fallen world, as far as Im concerned. I greatly admired Pope John Paul II, and believed him to be a Godly man, though.You didn't really pay attention, did you? I pointed out that I I posted the Pope's piece because it demonstrates how one can be serious about one's religion -- you will allow that the Pope was serious about his religion, won't you? -- and still accept that the Theory of Evolution is science.
As far as the fey little oh, please, you tell me how parents can raise children in their faith, with all of officialdom in opposition to doing so.
They can see to their childrens' religious instruction. Are there police stationed at your church refusing to allow the congregation to enter?

Somehow, try as I might, I just can't see God as being with the Nazis. Of course, I can't see some of the self-appointed Bullhorns for God here as speaking for Him either.
God told me so Himself.

Shame on you for exhibiting the errors of a senile old man.
His departure from God’s word must now be an embarrasment to him in the presence of the Lord, and hopefully he is unaware of what you are doing here.
