Yes - funding of science is a terrible idea and has only resulted in things like mapping the genome, seeing billions of years into the past and providing great curatives like Metformin and Glumipride. Bad, BAD, scientists! How DARE you apply scientific methods to problems when there are people who donÂ’t understand science with other opinions! BAD BAD Scientists!!

That's a straw man argument. I don't know any religious believer that wants to do away with science. The scientific method has been a boon for mankind. I appreciate science and its contributions to our health, wealth, and standard of living.

I do have a problem when faith in science tries to supplant faith in God. There is enough doubt and contradictory evidence about evolution to warrant an opposing viewpoint being presented.

But that might upset the current consensus apple cart and challenge the secular-humanist government-sponsered psuedo religion taught to our children.

Can't have independent thinking along THOSE lines now can we?

You are correct, but Darwinist liberals created that nonsensical strawman argument, attacking creation, because liberals don't like the Bible.

Conservatives agree it is shameful to see liberal DU attacks repeated on Free Republic.
