J D Vance: “I was never baptised. I was raised Christian but never baptised. I was first baptised in 2018. Usha was actually raised non-Christian. She is actually not Christian. But I remember when I started to re-engage with my own faith, Usha was very supportive.” Vance told Fox News in the latest interview.

The interviewer asked Usha herself why she was so supportive. She gave three reasons.

“I did grow up in a religious household. My parents are Hindu. That is one of the reasons why they made such good parents. That made them very good people. And I think I have seen the power of that in my own life. And I knew that JD was searching for something. This just felt right for him,” said Usha Chilukuri Vance.

She also said that they as a couple also agree on family life and how to raise their children.

“And the answer really is, we just talk a lot,” she concluded

Wow. I had no idea Vance was so religious. I hope Trump didn’t just invite another Pence through the gates.

But evolutionary theory in some form struck me as plausible, and though I consumed Tornado in a Junkyard and every other work of Young Earth Creationism, I eventually got to the point where I couldn’t square my understanding of biology with what my church told me I had to believe. I was never so committed to Young Earth Creationism that I felt I had to choose between biology and Genesis. But the tension between a scientific account of our origin and the biblical account I’d absorbed made it easier to discard my faith.

Hmmm . . .

The second insight is that my abandonment of religion was more cultural than intellectual. There were ways in which I found my religion difficult to square with science as it came to me. I’ve never been a classical Darwinist, for instance, for reasons David Gelerntner has outlined in his excellent new book.

So, like many Roman Catholics, JD has chosen to ignore the clear teaching of a six-day creation.

IF he has problems squaring this away with "science", then when he begins to think through the miracles of Christ, and the Apostles, and then the Resurrection...which all are denied by science, then he'll have another round of doubt.
