Now that's a provocative thought. Trouble with getting into something here is that I post from work and don't have time for much more than thinking on the fly. Having said that, I don't claim to know exactly what the religious right thinks of genetics, but they certainly seem to have a problem with natural selection. So to reject that principle in the natural world over which we have so little control, and then to generalize it to the social world where we have so much more power to influence how we live would seem to be a contradiction of the faith they profess. On the other hand, accepting the natural world as deterministic but, by virtue of our ability to reason, rejecting the social world as such doesn't strike me as inconsistent.
