I’ve got a few good reasons for being wary of Ron Paul. I won’t be jumping on his bandwagon any time soon. However, my good friend, Joe, pointed out that I was a little touchy regarding a newsletter that went out way back when (ghostwritten for Paul). I think he’s a little skeptical and even giving me a little of the stink eye. So, I looked for something a little more substantial on which to base my opinion. It’s not hard to find things about the man that stink just a little, but it’s really hard to find things that scream “OMG!! RUN!!”
Get enough of the little things together and they start smelling pretty damned bad. Like rat turds. One at a time they don’t stink. A whole pile of ‘em and you’re going to be passing out from the fumes. Right?
So, take a look at this video. The question posed to Paul was whether he believed in the Theory of Evolution. This theory basically states that humans today were once similar to chimps today and that 99% of our DNA is shared by the chimps. He answers quite truthfully that “…there is a theory- a theory of Evolution- and I don’t accept it.” He goes on to explain that no one can pin point when the universe was created and/or who created it. He believes in one Creator… blah blah blah.
He doesn’t accept that Evolution is a true fact and not a theory. Evolution is a theory that has been scientifically proven to a great extent. Unless you don’t like real science complete with hypotheses, tests, results, etc. Honestly, how else do those nasty Staph germs morph into super bugs if not evolution? And what’s the point of a platypus?
Ron on Evolution…?
