"Do you believe in evolution? Most conservatives do not and it is a proven fact. So why is that?" It's call "The Theory of Evolution" you talk about knowledge is great yet you show so little of it. evolution is not a fact.

Do you believe in evolution? Explain to me how something "evolved" from nothing.

>>> And I find your posts lack basic logic and knowledge of science. Other than computer science, I don't know much about science. But frankly, I've had no real discussion here on the subject, so I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm always prepared to defend any post I've made so go for it if you feel you're up to it. But I'm sick of arguing with those who can't put some logic behind their arguments. >> Do you believe in evolution? Most conservatives do not and it is a proven fact. So why is that? Yes, I believe in evolution. But that is a PERSONAL belief, and not one that insist anyone else have. I am more-or-less agnostic, but I don't insist that anyone have any particular religious view, nor would I ever criticize ANYONE for their religion or lack of it (I will criticize religious fanatics as well as atheists for trying to push their religion on me, however). I don't know what "most conservatives" believe and neither do you. At best, it is speculative, as even polls can't accurately measure this. Intuitively, many conservatives have strong religious views. But even Huckabee, a baptist minister, doesn't rule out a blended concept of evolution and creation. I would definitely think anyone who can't allow others their own religious views -- which you seem to be doing -- as being inconsistent with the foundation on which America was built.
