As a secular humanist, Obama presumably believes in evolution, but this indicates he doesn't understand the concept of "survival of the fittest." The human species and other species developed mechanisms of increasing the members' likelihood of survival in a crisis, and not thinking clearly is not going to improve one's chances of getting through danger alive.

Of course we don't know if Obama ever took any science courses since none of his transcripts have been released.

His position at the U of C was obviously given to him because of political pressure, not because he had something valuable to offer the students.

Off topic, but I have never yet *once* met an atheist/secular humanist who accepts Darwinist survival of the fittest as applied to human beings.

They universally want to force some sort of bastardized Christian charity on the successful to support the self-destructive and doomed.

Hypocrites to the core.

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
