Are we surprised?

"I'm a Christian, and I believe in parents being able to provide children with religious instruction without interference from the state. But I also believe our schools are there to teach worldly knowledge and science. I believe in evolution, and I believe there's a difference between science and faith. That doesn't make faith any less important than science. It just means they're two different things. And I think it's a mistake to try to cloud the teaching of science with theories that frankly don't hold up to scientific inquiry."

I agree with him. I guess there's a first time for everything.

I wouldn't go with this one...he's pretty much given a perfect answer. His following on the lead up to the Iraq war smells of the typical CNN distortion/brainwahing tho.

Not everyone stayed up nights breathing every word from C. Powell before we hit the ground in Basra. Obama must have been taking his required genius nap.

The entire answer is PC. Won’t take a stand for truth.

That Obama opposes teaching ID and other nonscience in science classes is hardly surprising, but it is nice to have him clearly on record backing real science.

SARC: "real science" excludes, without proof, variables like God, Divine intelligence etc.? This by someone who professes to believe in "God."

What then does this "god" do, since he evidently created and controls nothing according to Obama? Perhaps he watches the abortions, Obama approves of, for entertainment.

"I believe in evolution, and I believe there's a difference between science and faith." --Barack Obama

Macroevolution ideas, such as the claim that single-cell organisms evolved into humans over billions of years, have never been substantiated by the consistent results of repeatable, scientific-method based experiments. This is evidenced by the fact that proper experimentation that would verify such claims would likewise take billions of years to conduct; an impossibility.

And in experiments where billions of years of organism evolution have been simulated, negative mutations suggested the opposite of what evolutionists are claiming.

The bottom line is that Obama is unthinkingly putting his faith into evolution as much as other people are putting their faith into things like intelligent design.

While this post (<-click) addresses religion and abortion issues, it provides missing pieces as to how FDR's politically correct knocking down of 10th A. protected state powers has arguably led to a generation of new age "thinkers" like Obama who don't understand the difference between faith and science. In other words, it helps to explain why Obama's blissful ignorance of the importance scientific method in verifying scientific facts is a consequence unconstitutional federal government interference in state affairs.

suggesting that "religious Americans care only about issues like abortion and gay marriage; school prayer and intelligent design.

Hussein's sure got the Huckabots pegged.

Christianity and Evolution. Mutually exclusive.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Looks like the evolution proponents are in good company NOT.
