Religious Arguing/News here---->

[HairOfTheDog]

According to the survey, less than half Republicans believe in evolution and that number has dropped substantially since 4 years ago. This stat surprised me the most.

Less teaching of religion in school, lots of religious scandals in the news (from all over the world), more new archaeological finds showing differences in the early humans as compared to today...but the number of Republicans who believe that humans have always existed in the same form as we do now is increasing?

It just confirms what I suspected, Republicans are getting even more stupid.

When you consider their poster child is Sarah Palin is it really a surprise?

Assuming the survey results accurately reflect the trends, I wonder if maybe a declining faith in the sitting government translates into an increase in faith of an all powerful Supreme Being, for some? Who knows.

Sarah Palin certainly does get her big (and often ignorant) mouth heard in the media whenever there's an ultra conservative stance to be had on an issue or controversy.

She might still be the poster child for some extreme Tea Partyers, IDK. But, there are a lot of rational conservatives and moderate Republicans out there who see her as little more than a ridiculous celebrity at this point and wish she'd think before she bleats. I know a few of them; I don't think their wish is gonna come true any time soon though. She likes being first on the scene - front and center. Umbrellagate - there! Santa Racial Debate - there! Duck Dynasty Debacle - there! Political biblical interpretations - there!


I think she's a total (unintentional) crack-up. I don't wanna see her in office, but would miss the laughs if she disappeared from the public scene altogether.
