Recently I brought up a couple stupid legal moves in Arizona. Now I know why this happens there.
Some numskull Republican mentions - twice - that the Earth is 6,000 years old. Look, believe whatever you want to, but please do not develop public policy when your belief system flies in the face of proven science.
As pointed out in the article, the irony is that the legislator is arguing in favor of uranium mining. You know, uranium, the element used to prove the Earth is billions of years old? Maybe she wants it all mined so that we lose the proof of our science? I don't know.
Creationists and politics should not mix. Much like creationism and education should not mix. Or apparently Republican politicians and ethics and morality.
Here's the video.
