You are honestly answering, but again, you are parroting the meme. There are so many more issues that could be brought up about stewardship and leadership, and yet that is the favorite topic to discredit a candidate. Wow.
No, I genuinely believe it. Look I think creationism is a crock of shite, so is ID. But I can accept that you could believe those, and you could delude yourself into thinking it.
Young earth creationism is an entirely different ballgame. I cannot respect your views on other topics if you believe it. What will you do about other science topics? Will you completely disregard evidence? What about other technology topics? Net neutrality. privacy. NSA. These are all issues to be dealt with by our gov't. If you can't conclude the merits of an argument on the data, you might have a problem with these topics.
And what about FP? Same thing.
I am first and foremost an engineer, so these topics are very relevant to me.
eta: the only republican candidate I can see voting for is Paul FWIW. all of the rest are garbage.

Thanks for the response. Truly appreciate the honest discussion.
So, something from nothing? Macro evolution? Okay. Yeah, you and I would definitely be on the far end of the spectrum of each other. Fair enough.
And again, we are going to disqualify an individual (though he has never even stated that creation much less YEC is his belief) because he might (might) believe and yet elect a former community organizer who held no positions of executive leadership in the public or private sector. But (I would have to believe) he is definitely not a creationist (YEC or any other).
Sounds legit.
(you are actually a cool dude - thanks for the discussion and the differing viewpoint)
