I haven't read her book yet, but I saw her on Hannity & Colme talking about evolution. When will conservatives realize that it is Christian principles from which conservatism drives its power? That's where I part with Libertarians, because I don't see conservatism just being about less government and a balanced budget. It's a recognition of things as they really are. Liberalism sells a fabricated false religion that supplants reality for their fantasies of social justice and equality.

The philosophical justification for conservatism is that right and wrong exist as more than just whatever finite men say it is. God is the ultimate good from which all truth is derived. If God exists, then there is a Creator. Admittedly we know not the process by which he administered the creation, but the point of Darwinism is to suggest an alternative to creation. It's intent was to sow doubt in the existence of God. That's why it is championed by the godless.

Evolution is their Genesis. If there was no Adam, then there was no Fall. Without the Fall, there is no need for an Atonement. Without a need for an Atonement, there is no need for a Savior. Without a Savior, there is no need for Jesus Christ. With no Christ, there is no sin of which to repent, there are no boundaries, there is no judgment. The measure of truth is whatever man says it is. We call that Humanism.

I have to admire Ann for going to attack the very roots of liberalism. Why hack away at the branches when you can rip it out by the roots? Faith in Christ is the foundation of conservatism. Otherwise, just call it "mammon."

Not true. TOE is a scientific theory that does not address a deity. (Either for or against)
