Evolution can NOT be scientifically proven though, it is based upon several assumptions, so saying Evolution is a theory is correct. its just as much a theory as Creationism except Evolution has more fact to back it up.

Ron Paul crazies have made him lose a lot of undecided voters as a result of their bullying and harassing anyone who dares question their dear leader.
I think a lot of educated people tend to believe in the theory that has some proof supporting it, rather than the "let me blow my magical dust onto earth to create life" theory.
The guy who asked the question called it a theory, Dawkins calls it a theory.
Its a theory, some people believe we were seeded by aliens, Dawkins is one of them.
its a theory, evolution is a poor theory at best.
Evolution has not been proven, its accepted because its the most logical answer, its not fact.

Gravity is a theory. Evolution is a theory. I don't care if Newton was religious. You can be religious and know the world is round, that gravity exists, that animals evolve, etc. and still believe in God. I'm not taking issue with a belief in God.
So lets say Ron Paul believes in unicorns. Also that he is an intergalactic space alien? He can't get anything done and is incredibly ineffectual, which to me says that he would be very bad at running a country.

I don't think a person who is unable to accept evolution is all together there.
Originally posted by Domo1 I don't want him in charge of the country. Same goes for Mittens and Obama if they agree. This is just another mark against him in my eyes, and I wanted to see if anyone would actually be willing to say at the very least that they disagree with him. But he can do no wrong. .

A small correction here. We are still primates, part of the Ape family.edit on 3-6-2012 by TsukiLunar because: (no reason given)
Again you are assuming ones beliefs have to interfere with their job
I clearly said on page one i believe in evolution therefore i believe Ron is wrong and i disagree with him on the matter.
True again, I think there were two people on the first page. I wasn't intentionally glossing over posts, merely a bt distracted. I don't just troll this site.
You remember writing this right?

Unicorns and space aliens are not meant as metaphors for believing in God there. I would have gone with spaghetti monster. They are crazy things. Space aliens was a poor choice. I can completely see how that post didn't come across right.
I saw a thread earlier deriding people that didn't like Paul and blathering on about how many idiots there are in America that believe in Creationism. Guess who else does? Ronnie believes that evolution is just a theory (implying a theory isn't kinda a big deal - you know, gravity etc...) but will you die hards fault him for it? Of course not.
It's not that they are wrong in observation of a phenomenon, not denying the existence of Evolution or Gravity. But to accept the whole of any current theory regarding both, you'd be wrong eventually. Ron Paul has always said that he does not speak in extremes. This type of outlook is to be expected from him...

What?? RP speaks in only extremes. Do you even realize what his policies are? RP makes more leaps in logic than Sarah Palin.edit on 3-6-2012 by TsukiLunar because: (no reason given)
