This Congressman is a medical doctor - which really tells me that the standards for med school have gone down dramatically.
"The video clip, distributed by the Bridge Project, was taken from a longer version recorded on Sept. 27 during the 2012 Sportsman's Banquet at Liberty Baptist Church in Hartwell, Ga. Here's a transcript of the Bridge Project's snippet:
"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.""

well there isn't any proof saying it wasn't made in 6 days so you can't really blame him

Well...he is a politician and he was speaking at a Baptist Church in Georgia, so all that crap would be him just playing music to the audience's ears.
Dunno...I'm starting to believe that anyone who says that crap out-loud and in public is simply a grifter/con-artist/cunt-who-shouldn't-be-trusted.
I honestly don't think there is a single sane human being that truly believes that shit and the reason they say it and continue to say it is because they think there is someone within earshot who wants to hear it. It's nothing more than a dog whistle.

good to know there's at least one politician in this world who won't be coveting his neighbour's ass any time soon
