That may be true but it doesn't change the fact that Darwin's Theory of Evolution is the foundation on which all scientific study of biology is based. Willful ignorance is not a conservative trait and there's absolutely nothing moral about deceitful charlatans who degrade conservatives by associating them with bogus anti-science values.
