re: #58 EPR-radar

My loathing of creationists is one of the main things that stopped me from being a ‘good Republican’ back in my lean-R years.

If we define creationism as the belief that empirical evidence supports a single creation of all life on earth (and especially if that extends to a young earth itself), then it is intrinsically dishonest, since the evidence simply does not do that, and no amount of lying about it will change that conclusion.

I am somewhat confused by Pat Robertson’s views: he detests YEC, has stated the universe is about 14 billion years old and that dinosaurs went extinct about 50 million years ago , but he doesn’t believe that we evolved from lower forms of life. Maybe he believes that evolution applies to everything except humans?
