Quote:Sorry you got offended I called him out as a science denier for thinking the earth is less then 10,000 years old. I am fully aware that Carson is likely the smartest guy on that stage and in his field but to attempt to equate his general intelligence or grasp of all sciences due to his proficiency is neurosurgery and medicine in general is absurd no matter how much you want it to be the case. If it did, then regardless of his religion he would not think the earth is less then 10,000 years old. The fact that you can so easily brush it under the rug is not really shocking but shows the general ambivalence of the right towards science in general.

 

"yeah he's probably wrong but w/e he's strong in his convictions so he is obviously capable of leading the country" That sounds like insanity to me. Young earthers are the worst and most obviously blatant form of science denial. It is absurd.

 

yes yes... i confess...  he believes in an omnipitent creator.  A creator that tanscends all space all time and can depict the presentation of time, space, or concentration of radioactive isotopes as he sees fit.  Please forgive us oh arbitor of all that is science! 

 

UNBELIEVABLE.  This level of arrogance is both shocking and appalling.
