    Yes I'm sure if Ben Carson believed in the flying sphaghetti monster none of you would have a problem with it whatsoever. You know full well you'd be like what in the all hell get the fuck right out with that shit you can't be president you're a moron.

  • I don't give the first shit about Ben Carson. I suspect he's popular among tea party types as a way of allaying racism Charges.

  • While he was a hack ward politician in Chicago Barack Obama got his butt smacked by a blacker candidate. That's when he joined up with Pastor Jeremiah Wright to bolster his street cred and begin pounding the street as a community organizer. Black people look at other black candidates who are conservative as race traitors.

    They didn't vote for Alan Keyes either you seem like a very bright man.

  • So a black vote for a black Dem is because he's black

    A black not voting for a black conservative is because they see him as an uncle tom

    .... I guess that's one way to break it down. ....

    If this is your major issue you're concerned with I guess I know what causes people to vote in a crap candidate like our current president.

    No you idiot. I never said that was my major issue...

    But as discussed in a previous thread, if a candidate honestly believes that, then they lack some serious comprehension ability in my eyes. If you take all of the evidence available to us, and come up with that, then why would I trust you to accurately analyze public issues or foreign policy?

    Dem or Rep, the belief in a Young Earth by the candidate would all but persuade me not to vote for them. There is being religious, and there is lacking common sense.

    I would have to agree with you, it would be a major reason not to vote for a candidate(wouldn't use it as my "only reason")

    But I'll guess you have no problem voting for the Democrats who says he believes in the laundry list of other so-called miracles?

    Depends on what you are considering other so-called miracles. If you are referring to miracles in Holy books(ie bibile\koran) that can not be proven or disproven, like turning water to wine or walking on water, then no I would not hold that against either dem or rep. But if they still believe the world is only 6000 years old or the sun goes around the earth those would be a no-no in my book.

    So you hate old people, but love an old earth?

  • Do you believe that Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, died on the cross and was resurrected? Let's not be coy.

  • And has any modern day Republican been as closely tied to a church even nearly as offensive as the one the president chose of his own free will?

    Couldn't really tell ya, because usually religion and where one chooses to worship is low on my reasons to vote for a candidate. Though common sense involving science is a major reason to vote for a candidate.

    Unless it comes in the form of digging up reasons to vote against Republicans I guess...

    See your the one who is trying to make me sound anti-republican, I would vote against a dem that has the same lack of common sense(I am an independent that leans dem). When you run for president, anything you have said...ever gets brought to the front.

    But that's what this whole thing is about. Dr Carson is a conservative and would run as a Republican so bitter atheists like Woody are angry about his Christian beliefs even though the Christian beliefs of Barack Obama don't bother them. That's all.

    Umm I must have read a different forum post than you did. Does Obama also believe the world is only 6000 years old? Does he also not believe in Evolution?

  • Why are atheists always described as 'bitter' round here?
