I have to agree with Bill Nye. It’s rather worrisome for the future of the country to have someone on the House of Representatives’ Science, Space and Technology committee who says that he’s informed by his own scientific expertise that evolution, the Big Bang theory, and embryology are all “lies straight from the pit of hell,” designed to keep people away from the Christian savior.
Bill Nye says:
Since the economic future of the United States depends on our tradition of technological innovation, Representative Broun’s views are not in the national interest.
Nye doesn’t think Georgia’s Paul Broun has any business serving on that committee.
Yes, and the earth is only 9000 years old.
