Chrissy Mathews is a prissy little metro-sexual who's opinion isn't worth a bucket of cold spit.
Stop watching this nancy boy and he will fade away. By watching him you validate his existence. Stop empowering him.

Hey Chris,

This man and his church believe you can’t have science without God.

Monsignor Georges Henri Joseph Édouard Lemaître (July 17, 1894 – June 20, 1966) was a Belgian Roman Catholic priest, honorary prelate, professor of physics and astronomer at the Catholic University of Leuven. He sometimes used the title Abbé or Monseigneur.

Lemaître proposed what became known as the Big Bang theory of the origin of the Universe, which he called his ‘hypothesis of the primeval atom’.

It's not entirely implausible that the MSNBC hosts are closely related to
chimpanzees. Or that they would obsess on the hysteria of Darwinism, evolution,
and liberal metrosexual paranoid fears about mythical backwoods fundamentalists
interfering with their nocturnal "science" experiments... You just wonder how often this is a problem for him in Montgomery County. Do they wander in from
Mt. Airy and accost him in White Flint, demanding to renounce his infatuation
with prehistoric monkey bones and the imaginary big hairy rural swamp monsters
of his leg-thrilling fantasies?

Considering that a large faction of the liberal electorate and Obama's supporters
think that pregnancy can be prevented by copulating while standing up or
douching with Coca-Cola afterwards, this anti-science protest seems a little off just a tad.Let's get the Dems up to speed on basic science before casting stones here.

Did anyone see the South Park episode where religion is eliminated and in the future atheists say things like “Science damn it” and “Oh my science.”

Sometimes those cats are really ahead of the game.

Well, that’s what happens when you have pinheads who don’t know anything about “science”, who then proceed to confuse “evolution” and “science”.

"Lemaître proposed what became known as the Big Bang theory of the origin of the Universe, which he called his ‘hypothesis of the primeval atom’."

To say nothing of that Austrian monk, Gregor Mendel.

One possible answer to Mathews.....

Mr. Mathews, have you made any sort of an in depth study of the theory of evolution, and the problems associated with it?

Are you aware of the studies which were carried out over a multi-decades period in the last century involving fruit flies and how miserably evolution failed that test? Are you aware that several top scientists publicly renounced evolution on account of those tests?

Are you aware of the immense problem which the fossil record presented for classical Darwinian gradualism and of the many statements which scientists have made describing evolution as incompatible with the fossil record?

Are you aware that Steve Gould and Nyles Eldredge tried to devise a new version of evolution, called 'punctuated equilibria' to patch up that problem, but that punctuated equilibria has problems just as big and is in fact a pure pseudoscience since it involves a claim of validation by lack of evidence instead of by evidence?

Are you aware of the Haldane dilemma and the gigantic time periods, greater than the assumed age of the universe in fact, whichevolution would take to create our present biosphere even if that were possible, which in actual fact it is not?

Are you aware that scientists and researchers are now finding blood, blood vessels, and other kinds of soft tissue inside dinosaur bones and of what that does to the time scales which evolution requires?

Mr. Mathews, you asked me if I believe in evolution; Do I look like an idiot to you? In actual fact only idiots believe in or defend evolution in today's world,people with brains and talent gave up on it decades ago.

Mr. Mathews, is there some reason why you didn't check any of this out before asking your arrogant question which seeks to frame Republicans as ignorant bible thumpers?

Matthews is hardly the man to be speaking of intellect,or honesty.

Let me get this straight. The only people that can have Science are Democrats, atheists, and blind followers of Evolution? I call your bluff Mr. Hardball. I call your bluff. Science is not yours, nor is it the liberals, nor is it the sheeple’s who follow the Evolutionists. Science is about finding the truth using tools of measurement and observations, it is not about: worshiping Darwin, finding alternatives to God and hoping, or your party of baby killers claiming it as their own and smearing its integrity across miles of cow dung.
