Like the one set up by Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Kim Jung Il?
Rather than the Bible literalist nutbags? Creationist foolisnness? Like Newton? Like Faraday? The men who gave us the Constitution? Like this....?
When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
Sure, see where that belief in God will land you?
See, Mitch, they like to quickly go from the biology aspect of it all to comparing folks like you and me to Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, etc. At least Metmom left out Hitler this time, so that was a touch of class.
Sir Isaac Newton was a creationist! That’s always one of my favorite ones. The fact that he lived 200 years before Darwin somehow doesn’t factor in. Psst, he also believe the moonwalk was a hoax.
Oh yeah, and then we get the T Jefferson as literalist stuff.
It’s a pattern. A very boring pattern.
