Rep Paul C. Broun of Georgia speaks:
God’s word is true. I’ve come to understand that. All that stuff I was taught about evolution and embryology and the Big Bang Theory, all that is lies straight from the pit of Hell. And it’s lies to try to keep me and all the folks who were taught that from understanding that they need a savior. You see, there are a lot of scientific data that I’ve found out as a scientist that actually show that this is really a young Earth. I don’t believe that the Earth’s but about 9,000 years old. I believe it was created in six days as we know them. That’s what the Bible says.
And what I’ve come to learn is that it’s the manufacturer’s handbook, is what I call it. It teaches us how to run our lives individually, how to run our families, how to run our churches. But it teaches us how to run all of public policy and everything in society. And that’s the reason as your congressman I hold the Holy Bible as being the major directions to me of how I vote in Washington, D.C., and I’ll continue to do that.

Unless of course they are negative concerning Republicans. Hey David, am I missing something?
Thank godness that guy has nothing to do with any races in MA.
kbusch says
And the point, as I recall, was that BMG made no promises about covering national events thoroughly.
And yes, negative stuff about Republicans is going to appear on BMG. Perhaps you were recently created in 6 days?
hoyapaul says
Sorry kbusch. I accidently clicked on the wrong thing and disapproved your comment. I can’t seem to reverse this mistake, for some reason. Just wanted to make clear that I wasn’t disapproving your comment.
Bob Neer says
Why might that be?
kbusch says
He makes his living off science, after all.
SomervilleTom says
Each GOP representative gives nutcases like Rep. Broun more clout. Sorry, John, but the national party IS relevant to races in MA.
kbusch says
The WIkipedia article ends with
kirth says
He believes that the “Go forth and multiply” part was referring to families, so he’s made four of them.
So far.
kbusch says
The WIkipedia article does leave open the possibility that he hasn’t had a child yet from his fifth or sixth wife.
tblade says
If we evolved from monkeys, WHY ARE THERE STILL MONKEYS?
kirth says
Somebody’s got to fling all that poop, and there just aren’t enough Republicans to handle it.
