WOW...Santorum really is off the reservation with this one...

At a rally in Independence, Missouri, Rick Santorum revealed to a large crowd a lot more information regarding his beliefs on science. He told the crowd that not only is climate change “make-believe,” but all science is “made up by the government to control our way of life.” He said that the only way to live is by the “Holy book,” and everything else taught in the “liberal schools” is “designed to indoctrinate our children into the realm of Satan.”

One of Mr. Santorum’s most outrageous claims came when he told his crowd of supporters that “the sun revolves around the earth.” He said that, “in order to think that the earth revolves around the sun you have to be of the thinking that we are not the most dominant planet and species in the universe. I’m not going to let my children grow up in a society that tells them to believe the planet they live on is only a small speck in the bigger picture. God created our planet to be special because we are. He created the sun to keep us warm and provide light to our crops. He created man to be the keeper of it all. This is what we need to teach our children, not some mumbo-jumbo science that only seeks to pull our children away from the Lord.”

Wow... Really?

I need to see some video... lol

I love these "onion" type reports. They are awesome...
 
I know that he is a religious nutter but it hard to believe that anybody could say the Sun goes around the Earth. Isn't that a spoof site?

It isn't even the belief held by the church, this guy is Looney Tunes and he is only there or the fringe right. He can't win a general election with these beliefs!
 
The funniest thing, the more Ricky goes off on all the "Satan people" (liberals) the more he pushes himself away from the white house, we dont need to make up stuff about him now, he's his own worst enemy propaganda wise.

Ricky, go back to the 8th century where you would feel more at home.

Praise Jesus for that!
 
notice the progression here...

"Santorum said something incredibly stupid"
"He's really stupid for saying that"
"Oops, he didn't really say it"
"That's okay it's something we believe he could have said"
"Yeah he's really stupid for not saying something we believe he could have said"

and these are the comments of people who actually believe they are intelligent posters......
 
Nope...my apologies...apparently I was reading a "satire" website like the Onion.


Its astounding how easy it is for you and yours to believe the most outrageous bullshit about people because they happen to different political views.....
The more ridiculous the accusation the more you accept it as truth.....a factious comment by the opposition is taken to be his/her belief rather than the parody intended.

That really says something about you pinheads.....you'll rant about Limbaugh calling fluke a slut because she presents an argument that she can't afford the protect herself from unwanted pregnancy but ignore Maher for calling Sarah Palin a cunt for no other reason than she belongs to a different political party.
You ridicule anyone that is publicly religious just because they don't hide it....
Its like your mothers or fathers or other of your family members ever went to church or prayed in your presence....or it they did, did you ridicule them also ?

Why do religious people scare you so much....I'm totally agnostic and they don't bother me in the least.....I don't care what others believe about their "God" ....

You're living in a fool's paradise if you think santorum is anything but a 100%, 24 karat certified wacko.

I don't care what others believe about their God either, but I do care if they try to foist it on the public. Read Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District as an example.

That's really funny coming from one of the guys who regularly posts the most outlandish bullshit about our President, and tries to pass it off as fact...
 
It may as well be, since only 39% of the population of the US believes in the theory of evolution. Explains why the GOP exists on any level at all.

Link us up, please. I'd love to see the supposed survey on that one.

Remember when they found out that Rather and Co. were just making up the memo and actually argued that the lady said it was "something the dude would have said" and that should be good enough?

Seriously, man. The guy clearly didn't say it, it was a funny satire piece.
