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.?"
Why not just mind your own business and let people think and say what they want?
So let's make government small enough so U.S. Congressmen's opinions don't matter.
A free people in a free country wouldn't care what some Congressman thought about evolution.
And how long will *you* be free without law enforcement or an army or anti monopoly laws? ..... and most would welcome them with open arms, or even go so far as to kill those that would stop them, at least after a few years.
Canada would be able to just walk in and take what states it wanted
There will be no impact on science other than the usual atheist psychopaths screaming and yelling that science is being attacked. Computer science and engineering will be 100% unaffected. Normal physics will be 100% unaffected since the Big Bang has no impact on technology whatsoever. Biology will be unaffected because there is no problem with having a design evolution resulting in a hierarchy, i.e., the tree of life. There is no need for a Darwinian tree of life. In fact, the tree of life is a Biblical concept to begin with. So is the brain's tree of knowledge, i.e., hierarchical memory.
The only thing that might affect science is if this congressman's silly ideas on the age of the earth were suddenly held by the majority of educators and scientists. I bet it's less than .001%. In the meantime, the atheist psychopaths can have fun jumping up and down and foaming at the mouth and screaming that America is anti-science. It's fun to watch.
Did you just read a single word I posted above or did you just copy & paste the standard anti-Libertarian post from the dailykos?
Perhaps you'll understand better if I put it in all caps and you read very very slowly: IT IS BAD WHEN ANY POLITICIAN OF ANY POLITICAL PARTY IS GIVEN TOO MUCH POWER. PEOPLE ON SLASHDOT WHO THINK THAT GIVING UNLIMITED POWER TO OBAMA IS GREAT BECAUSE THEY FOOLISHLY THINK HE'S ON THEIR SIDE WHILE COWERING IN FEAR THAT ROMNEY COULD END UP HAVING THE EXACT SAME POWER ARE DOING IT WRONG. NEITHER OBAMA NOR ROMNEY SHOULD HAVE THAT POWER. IN A TRULY FREE COUNTRY, YOUR FREEDOM ISN'T THE PRODUCT OF WHETHER YOUR SIDE WINS AN ELECTION BECAUSE GOVERNMENT POWER IS RESTRICTED NO MATTER WHO WINS. THIS ISN'T ROCKET SCIENCE BUT IT IS OBVIOUSLY WAY OVER YOUR HEAD.
THE DAILKOS CALLED AND THEY HAVE A MESSAGE FOR YOU: PLEASE PUT ON ANOTHER "HOPE & CHANGE" STICKER AND LYNCH ANYONE WHO MIGHT NOT VOTE FOR GOD-EMPEROR OBAMA. SIGNED: YOUR "OPEN MINDED" FRIENDS AT THE DAILYKOS.
Lemme guess.. when MSNBC intentionally edits Romney videos so that he appears to say exactly the opposite of what he actually said, you agree that SMSNBC is right because that's what you wished Romney had said since it jibes your own prejudices, even though the Romney that exists in the real world has this annoying habit of not being the strawman that you wish he was....
AntiFA: An abbreviation for Anti First Amendment.
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.
shut up white knight. girlintraining is probably a dude and if in the off-chance it isn't a dude, then it's probably an ugly bitch anyway.
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.
If you could reason with religious people, there would be no religious people
