[Vision2020] Say What?

[deb]

I weep because he is "Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA), Chair of the House Science Committee" in a country which is supposed to be founded in logic and science, not because he's a religious nut job who believes the unbelievable. He is entitled to his opinions and beliefs, but who put someone with his obvious lack of credentials (including SENSE) on the Science Committee? Those who put him on the committee have more to answer for than he does---they knew he was a snake when they picked him up. I weep because it is possible to have a complete "anti-science" ninny as chair of a SCIENCE COMMITTEE of our elected representatives, who make decisions about SCIENCE on our behalf....it makes my head ache that this is even an option, let alone common practice in "the most enlightened nation in the world".

  Why?  He's from Georgia.  This isn't any surprise to me.  You'd get pretty much the same thing from any of the conservative Southern States + Idaho.  And lots of people probably benefit quite a bit by believing that they have a savior - but that should be their choice IMO instead of being brainwashed.

    “All that stuff I was taught about evolution and embryology and the Big Bang Theory, all that is lies straight from the pit of Hell.  And it’s lies to try to keep me and all the folks who were taught that from understanding that they need a savior.”

    - Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA), Chair of the House Science Committee
