But remember he is not just on the Science and Technology committee, he's on the Health Committee and Natural Resources.

I don't see how anyone that denies the fact of evolution or that the Theory of Evolution is the only explanation available for the evidence of life on this planet as someone who could be trusted in any position that requires analysis of evidence and decision making.

Perhaps the word idiot is not the proper characterization. I agree. They would have an excuse. Congressman Broun is simply a threat to the US and all US citizens and residents.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

You realize that the same folk that were teaching you utter nonsense like Young Earth or that the Biblical Flood happened are the same people feeding you utter nonsense like the current GOP/Tea Party positions don't you?

It really is simple.
That is all the current GOP want and all the current GOP expects a President to be. They believe that Congress should run the country and that the President is only there to sign the bills Congress sends for signature. The duty of a President is to say what he is told to say, sign what he is told to sign, get out of the way of business and the official religion and should the wrong bills somehow get through and appear on his desk he is called simply not implement those satanic parts that were included.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

I suggest you actually look up dyslexia.
Then maybe sit up all night wondering if there really is a DOG. But what does your failings have to do with the topic which is about yet another politician being elected that has shown he is incapable of examining evidence and coming to a valid conclusion?Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

The question was "But what does your failings have to do with the topic which is about yet another politician being elected that has shown he is incapable of examining evidence and coming to a valid conclusion?"
The issue is the politician in the OP. Why should anyone that shows they are incapable of making a decision based on the evidence and that allows his or her religious beliefs influence legislation ever be elected or hired for any position that requires decision making?

Not being able to make evidence based decisions like not accepting the FACT that evolution happened and that the ONLY explanation available for that evolution is the Theory of Evolution shows that he is incapable of reason based on reality and evidence.
The man sits on several important committees including Health, Science and Technology committees. It is not a matter of anyone's beliefs, it is a matter of allowing their personal beliefs to influence decisions. Read his comments about embryology, geology, evolution and you will see that he even admits that he is making his decision based on the Bible and NOT on the evidence. He is making decision based not on science, not on evolution, not on geology but on his FAITH. It might be reasonable to hire him if he was applying for a job as a pastor or minister of some CCoI club chapter but that's about it.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Did he say "I’ve come to understand that. All that stuff I was taught about evolution and embryology and 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 are taught that from understanding that they need a savior."?
So he is saying that what is taught about evolution, embryology and Big Bang theory are all lies. And he is saying that not based on any evidence in evolution, embryology or Big Bang theory but because "all that is lies straight from the pit of hell".Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

forevryoung writes: My belief in God is not based on physical evidence. If you are going to castigate broun for believing the bible when it is contradictory to physical evidence then castigate yourself for believing in God when there is no physical evidence. Slow down and read what you just wrote. What is the difference between believing something when there is NO evidence and believing something where there is evidence and ALL of the evidence shows the belief is false?

Like I said, christians don't believe what God says in his word because of the evidence. Likewise, they don't stop believing what God says in his word because all of the evidence shows the belief is false. And that is the problem with that type of Christianity. They make a mockery of GOD and Christianity. I suppose you can show where anyone other than you thinks they have all the evidence, but a wise man DOES make decisions based on the evidence that is available. This is particularly important when hiring a politician to make decisions in areas like Health and Welfare, Natural Resources and Science and Technology. We do not need people in such positions making decisions based on "intuition" and in particular, we can not afford politicians making decisions based on their religious beliefs. The US is NOT a Christian Nation and we have a secular government.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

But it still has nothing to do with the topic.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!
