postcard from over the edge -DeMint wants 'creationism' to be taught in schools

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/06/27/sen-demint-blasts-secular-government-urges-creationism-in-schools/

...DeMint said children should be able to go to schools that teach creationism. He claimed that scientific discoveries, such as the human genome project, provided evidence supporting creationism. DeMint also said God had put Christians in charge of “this vineyard we call America.”

Even as a Christian, you are back at the tower of Babel...spouting things that are lies.

I suggest you find yourself a desert somewhere and wither away.... The world has no further need for you.

God did not put anyone in charge of America. She created the world, set it spinning, and is sitting back watching to see how fucked up we can make it.

DeMint(ed) go away.....
