You guys sure are liberal with words like "scary" when it comes to politics.

How in the world is it "scary" that he has a personal belief in the Biblical narrative of Noah and that his application of it is that he doesn't see a Biblical command to retire from working?

Faith doesn't necessarily correlate to intelligence, leadership ability, or any other quality it takes to be a leader. There are great leaders who had religious faith and bad leaders who had none, and vice versa.

So you think it's okay that someone truly believes a man centuries ago lived to 600 years old and that means people today shouldn't retire?

Good Lord. I'm starting to understand why people from the North think we southerners are just retarded hicks.
