Comment by Perry de Havilland
The only debate to be had on the subject is “does the state have a role in ‘edukshun’?” I say no and I suspect Ron Paul agrees. I have no problem with people believing whatever wacko things they want (and for me that includes all religion), but the evolution vs. creationism debate should be a NON POLITICAL one and the *only* way that can ever be true is when the state is no longer involved in education.
I think creationism is nuts and it makes me think less of Ron Paul that he has a *religious* objection to the theory of evolution, but frankly this should not be a matter for political concern and he at least is highly unlikely to force state schools to teach it (or anything else for that matter). The fact that it is shows something it very wrong and the correct ’something’ that needs debating is not evolution, it is state schooling. Return all schooling to the private sector and the entire issue goes away from the political sphere. Let the market decide if there is demand for schools that teach creationism, I have no problem with that at all.

It’s wrong to say “creationism is nuts” until looking at the theory put forth on catholicfundamentalism.com It suggests that God is able to program in three dimensions, and did so, using angels (subprogrammers) to program particles, compile them into structures and beings, then have them move through time.
Fossils, etc? They were programmed to give us free will.
