Should politicians running for office or nominated for appointments
be asked if they believe the world is 6,000 years old and the Grand Canyon was created during the Great Flood?

2. In 6000 years has a politician ever answered a question?

5. I'd settle for some forthright answers on their views of the constitution
Perhaps a little honest discussion about their writings, court cases they may have decided ...

I'd be far more interested in that.

6. Apparently its Christian-bashing day for you this morning.
Or is this an everyday thing?

7. You can see it that way if you wish.
Or you can say people who buy into myth lock-stock-and-barrel are not thinking for themselves.

8. See if people were really thinking independently
They'd come to the same conclusions tk2kewl has.

the problem isn't with religion per se, but with how some allow it to alter their judgment
