that pretty much sums it up, i think.

What if the person finds scientific evidence that compells him to believe in a creationist world, such as a young earth of 6,000 years; instead of millions?
Then they should share it with the scientific community for further examination.

And you know what? I really like Huckabee.
Maybe I'm just being to hard on the guy.
After all I am a real softie at heart.

Thanks. He's ambiguous and leaves a way out. I also found a clip of him and Bill O'Reilly discussing it and he said he believes in a literal Adam and Eve. That''s pretty amazing to me. He'd probably do well to get Shwarzeneggar to be his running mate so people will forget about this.

I don't see how someone who still believes in fairy tales can be eligible to run a country.

He is 35 years old and a US citizen. I think that is the only requirement.

Seemingly.
However, I certainly wouldn't vote for him.

Yes, those copious amounts of physical evidence certainly qualify it as a fairy tail.

Unlike God, of course, for which there is no evidence whatsosever.

I didn't realize fairies have tails. Must be the result of supernatural selection. 😉

Anyone that believes in judgement day has seriously poor judgement.

No, I wouldn't vote for a creationist.

You know that Tony Blair recently became a catholic. He said that he hadn't before because people would start thinking of him as a 'nutter'.

I'm not sure how relevant that is really - his political judgement was the thing that was being looked at rather more closely. He made a statement later in his career that he felt that god would be his judge. Ref the insanity in the middle east where we get back to all leaders claiming to have god on their side!!!

This bloke Mike Huckabee doesn't sound as bad as some. At least at the moment he is trying to tiptoe round the more extreme positions.
