Evolution has no bearing on Constitutional governance. This is all meant cast conservative candidates under the wheels of PC denigration.
No, it means people want to know if presidential candidates suffer from anti-science superstition to the detriment of medical research funding, which is often at the discretion of the executive.
But since governments, federal, state, and local, control education, at least at the 2ndary level, and through funding, much of the university level too--AND, since government is so involved in the funding of science, evolution has a huge bearing on our governance--and societal assumptions in all areas.
The problem is, we don't have, and haven't had for a very long time, true Constitutional governance.
“Evolution has no bearing on Constitutional governance. This is all meant [to] cast conservative candidates under the wheels of PC denigration.”
Bump to that. It don’t mean a darn thing to how you read the plain text of the Constitution whether you think God made little green apples, or that they evolved from bigger/smaller/other-colored apples. You’re either a Constitutionalist or you’re not, no matter your religious viewpoint.
