US House Science Committee Member: Evolution Is a Lie From Hell

First time accepted submitter badford writes "Representative Paul Broun (Georgia Republican) said that evolution, embryology and the Big Bang theory are 'lies straight from the pit of hell' meant to convince people that they do not need a savior. It would not be quite as shocking if Broun did not sit on the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology. What impact could this have on policy? What impact could this have on STEM education not just in Georgia but all over the U.S.?"

You keep telling your self that. It won't make your eternal torture in hell go away. Don't claim you weren't warned. God is just. You will suffer for all your infinitely large sins against Him*. You have broken His commandments and stand guilty before Him. The perversions you follow as morals won't help you when judgement day comes. How you followed some of them won't cover how you broke Gods commandments. How God isn't following your "morals" isn't relevant as He is judging you, not the other way around. Crying about how we all are His children won't help you. Screaming at me for violating the brotherhood of man by agreeing with God on what you deserve is pathetic. You are not His child and I am not your brother*. You are now closer to the day God will judge you than you were when you wrote your post. You are therefore closer to Hell*.

* Unless He will make you repent and give you saving faith in how Christ payed for your sins on the cross. In that case your sins are payed, God has adopted you and heaven awaits. If He give you faith please remember that He had no obligation to do so or to refrain from doing it. You are in no position to claim He saved you because of how much better you are than the rest or to complain how He hasn't saved others.

What you still (and I figure always will) don't get is that your "god" exists only in your imagination. What the sad part is, is that people like you and the idiot from the House somehow manage to make it into places that your delusion can have an affect on the general populous.
