But since Santorum is a likely advocate of the "healing power of prayer," I wouldn't expect him to take that line.

Frankly a man who doesn't even understand his own religion has no space to talk about science at all. If you really can't grasp a concept like "Sky-Daddy says take care of the poor," then how the fuck are you going to understand the importance of tenths-of-a-degree shifts, parts per million, and hte idea that gasses can be weighed at tons?
