And we want to pick a US VP who believes in creationism? Unbelievable!

I don't have a problem with anyone who believes in creationism. I have a problem with anyone who would allow that to be taught in a biology class. If people want to take it as an elective that's fine with me as long as it's not presented as science.

I probably would not have voted for McCain this year although I did like him in 2000. A willingness to introduce creationism into a biology class is a deal killer for me.

Yeah. But on the bright side, we have 70% of the worlds lawyers. ;-)
