GOP 'science' is politically expedient

Does the GOP realize that they are crippling this country's potential by pandering to the religious sociopaths of the reactionary right?

Do they realize that by pandering to the creoIDiot crowd that they are making the US the laughing stock of the western world?

Do they realize they (the creoIDiot crowd) are setting us up for a return to the Dark Ages, and so goes America, so goes the rest of the planet. It took western civilization a thousand years and some unintentional outside assistance from the muslim world to recover the last time. Who will save the west from the second go around? The chinese?

Probably. The question then becomes: do they care?

Probably. The question then becomes: do they care? After all, they expect the world to end pretty soon (within their lifetimes) and they expect that *they* will all have been raptured away by then so long term consequences are of NO consequence.

Besides, they got theirs, and they really don't care there might be nothing left for their children. Just a slight showing of greed and self-centeredness.

They've been expecting the world to end 'soon' for the last nineteen millenia, and kept including those patent lies in their book (i.e. where the author of revelation thought the end would happen during his lifetime) three and a half centuries later. And these people claim they actually read their book. HAH!

I think you mean "the last nineteen CENTURIES." :)

You're right, nineteen centuries. My bad. Point still stands that these 'end of the world' types keep expecting it to happen, even when it doesn't.

For the love of Dog, can't we stop with the myths and superstitions and stay with reality? Science is about facts ... proven facts.

Religion is myth, folklore, legend, superstition and has NO place in gov't or how things are run or how our money is spent or what it taught in schools
