New York Magazine Writer Dan Amira Knocks GOP Delaware Nominee Christine O’Donnell for Not Believing in Evolution


For weeks during the Ground Zero Mosque debate I found it very hypercritical for the Left to scream in favor of “religious freedom” as if they really believed in such a thing.

Well, today the so-called religious freedom fighting Left have reverted back to their old form.

Writer Dan Amira of New York Magazine took a pot shot at recently nominated GOPer Christine O’Donnell for her stance against the theory of Evolution and in favor of Creationism.

What happened to religious freedom when it concerns a Conservative? And why is it a crime not to believe in Evolution?

Concerning her view on Darwin’s theory that is still considered a theory for over 100 years, O’Donnell said this:

CHRISTINE O'DONNELL: Well, as the senator from Tennessee mentioned, evolution is a theory and it's exactly that. There is not enough evidence, consistent evidence to make it as fact, and I say that because for theory to become a fact, it needs to consistently have the same results after it goes through a series of tests. The tests that they put — that they use to support evolution do not have consistent results. Now too many people are blindly accepting evolution as fact. But when you get down to the hard evidence, it's merely a theory. But creation

Now that’s a pretty well reasoned response O’Donnell gives hitting all the points why evolution is still considered a theory instead of a scientific law.

But, Dan Amira who only graduated in 2007 from Union College, obliviously an academic powerhouse, writes the following critique:

“Whoops. Technically, evolution is a theory in the scientific-nomenclature sense, but it's so widely accepted by every legitimate scientist in the world that it is considered fact”

Yes sir, those Union College graduates leave MIT in the dust don’t they?

With analysis like this Amira needs to be the chief admin for NASA!

If this hogwash sounds familiar it’s the same kind of bogus rationale the Left uses to sell the world on Global warming by saying a consensus of scientists believe that it is real.

You don’t arrive at scientific facts by a show of hands!

If I throw an apple in the air, I don’t care if a million of these tree hugging scientists vote that it won’t come down. The LAW of GRAVITY says it will come down every time I throw the apple in the air no matter what country I throw up in.

This is the fallacy of the theory of evolution and it is the reason why it is still called a theory after all these years.

O’Donnell should not be made to look odd for having the constitutional right to believe the way she does.

And Amira needs to get a refund from Union College.
