In reply to the discussion: Rubio: Maybe Earth was created in 7 days because ‘I’m not a scientist, man’ [View all]silhouete2
(80 posts)give me a break. Theologians are NOT scientists. That is the problem with Bible literalist Christians--they have to alter reality to fit the script. I'm Christian--educated in public schools and educated about religion at home and church. I've NEVER had an issue with evolution---because I don't believe in the literal interpretation of the Bible on all things.-like the story of creation. I'm an educator myself and i live in both words just fine--and see no contradiction. The problem with these people is that they think God flits around involving Himself in their daily lives--sporting events, elections, weather, financial situations. He doesn't. They refuse to believe in science because it interferes with their take on reality. I have friends who don't believe that humans have faulty genes because that would mean, to them, that God makes mistakes. Um, no it doesn't. When guys like Rubio spout this nonsense, they look dumber to me. But I see the appeal--because the GOP is STILL catering to their extreme Bible thumping base. Go figure.
