The Ref's Calls

The constant mentioning of Mitt Romney's Mormon faith demonstrates the hypocrisy of so much of the liberal establishment press. Simply put, constantly mentioning Romney's faith diminishes his public policy positions to secondary status behind his faith, an important component of his identity.  This type of political "analysis" elevates identity politics to ultimate status and is analogous to reading only the headlines. One has a difficult time imagining that some substantial portion of the reason behind mentioning Romney's faith is a desire to hurt his chances at winning the nomination.  The political media continues to try to make the news, rather than simply reporting it, to a greater degree than most other parts of the media.  The problem is not that they mention his faith, but that they barely mention his name without mentioning it.  They are obsessed with Mitt Romney's faith.

Salon.com's Gordy Slack seems to believe that Evolution proves that no God exists and that our origins were completely without design or direction in any way. Apparently Mr. Slack has missed the fact that Evolution contains enormous gaps that render the theory useless for determining the actual origin of life. Mr. Slack's article dismisses Intelligent Design as nothing more than religious emotionalism hiding in the veil of science.  In essence Slack suggests that Intelligent Design is religion and no matter how scientific it may seem don't believe it.  Instead accept that the theory of Evolution has proven that God does not exist although science has done nothing whatsoever to demonstrate this.  The article dismisses the fact that Intelligent Design is actual science with a great deal of circumstantial evidence to support it.  He also seems to ignore the fact that many accept both Evolution and Intelligent Design. All too often those opposed to Intelligent Design simply reject any notion of God no matter how unemotional and rationality based that notion is. Read the article, The evolution of creationism.
