Three Repub candidates don't believe in evolution--- Do they believe in the Rapture?

[trumad]

I think that's a pretty important question to ask a Presidential Candidate of a country that owns a gazillion nukes.

[jobycom]

1. Which three?

I don't pay attention, since there is zero chance I'd consider one of them. That is depressing, though. Was this part of the debate last night?

[trumad]

4. When asked in the debate if they didn't believe in Evolution, the 3 raised their hands

Tom Tancredo of Colorado, Sen. Sam Brownback of Kansas and former Governor Mike Huckabee of Arkansas

17. Gawd, guess they don't believe dinosaurs walked the earth...

Millions of years ago either.

Good nutjob PR for the rethug wacko base - which is getting smaller by the minute.

[BOSSHOG]

2. That confuses me

I thought all of them tried to prove to the universe that they all have evolved from ray-gun.

[wizstars]

11. that would certainly be a lower form of life... n/t

3. I'm pretty sure they aren't going to get any of our votes anyway

5. Yeah---but I'd love to see that question asked in the next debate.

[dave_p]

6. It's a damn good question

It could be asked of the others too.

[BurtWorm]

7. You're right about that.

A candidate who wears his Christian religion on his sleeve, in particular, ought to be asked that question.

[DawnIsis]

8. I have often thought that should be the 1st question posed to a candidate that flaunts their

Christianity to get votes. A key aspect of Christianity is the apocalypse and I think it's high time an open debate on how this mindset would affect their leadership as the President.

More questions:

-Do you believe God spoke to Bush and said there should be a crusade in the middle east against the muslims
-Do you believe the muslim religion is satanic or satan is behind any aspects of the world and if so which ones?
-Does your belief in Revelations impact your thinking on the United Nations?
-Do you believe women as per your religious institutions should not be able to hold positions of power and that they should not use birth control when having sex?
-Do you believe hurricane Katrina was a punishment from God against the gays in New Orleans?

I can certainly think of many more questions the MSM should be asking.

9. As Edgar would say of the candidates:

"You know, I have noticed an infestation here. Everywhere I look, in fact. Nothing but undeveloped, unevolved, barely conscious pond scum. So convinced of their own superiority as they scurry about their short, pointless lives."

[Faux pas]

10. Why should they believe in evolution? None of them have evolved

past the larva stage.

[wizstars]

12. they're just proof of my theory.....

... that some of the monkeys came down from the trees on their heads.

:rofl:

[Faux pas]

20. Monkeys are smarter than that group. Better looking too. LOL n/t

[ToeBot]

13. Agreed, given the current political, religious and environmental situation...

it would be just plain foolish to elect adherents of apocalyptic philosophies.

[EstimatedProphet]

14. I like this idea that if you don't believe in something, it won't exist!

I don't believe in Republicans. Now it's time for them to go away!

[Zynx]

15. Brownback doesn't (in Rapture). He's Catholic.

Catholics consider the whole "Rapture" thing to be unfounded heresy.

[UTUSN]

16. K&R but Tweety would only ask gotcha questions of Dems. n/t

[Marnieworld]

18. I think that's a very important question

COnsidering what state our country and the world is in due to our current Rapture loving president. We need to know if they believe it's coming? how long? do they want it personally? What sort of events will bring it? And how these events correlate with the current circumstances in the middle east?

America should know if our foreign policy is being determined by what would bring Jesus back, vs. what would bring PEACE. We should know if they perceive American citizens by dividing those who would be "saved" and those who would not be and questioned as to how he would represent all of them.

They need to be forced to comment on record about Left Behind and all of that. You are absolutely correct.

19. They were grown in a petri dish...HS experiment on bacteria gone awry

so they believe in the Great Mold who lives in the Round House made of Glass

and it is a fair question
