What they always fail to mention is that there isn't a monolithic group opposed to Scientific theory as we now interpret it. There are plenty of leftists who don't believe in evolution/Darwin, rather they pray to the mothership, Chrystal manifestations or Gaia. Geez, and I didn't even mention the christians who still consider themselves democrats.
Heck, I'm really more of an anthroposophist than traditional christian, and I don't buy into the current theory of evolution.
