And you know the difference?? Because you are a scientist?? Let's see. Knowing the average creationist on this forum, you have had what, high school science??
The sheer arrogance of you people is beyond belief. The best of you is a junior college all-star. None of you has a degree in science. None of you has ever worked as a scientist. Not one of you has ever published in science. Yet, you will argue with those of us who spent (nominally) a decade getting a Ph.D and have more publications each then the entire output of all creationists and all IDers combined.
Once upon a time, conservatives stood for hard work and accomplishment. We were proud of the fact that we worked harder, were better educated, and accomplished more than any liberal you could find.
Now, any bozo with a HS education can claim he knows real science.
No need to get so upset over something that happened 6,000 years ago... Oh, wait, you believe it happened 4.6 billion years ago. Even better!
Would it be reasonable to suggest that one's faith and one's political beliefs/doctrines can be neatly separated?
Personally, I'm a creationist. However, that is irrelevant to the fact that I'm a conservative. The two really don't have much to do with each other. This can also serve as a critique of people who are a little too vocal on this forum when it comes to being pro-creationist.
But speaking only for myself, I fail to see how my own views on the beginning of the world (which are actually different from other creationists here) is an embarrassment to YOU as a CONSERVATIVE.
I haven't seen any evidence of a HS education, only a biblical indoctrination.
What do you expect!
They all get this idea from their excellent teachers and counselors!
