Ben Carson: Religion is needed to interpret science because ‘maybe it’s just propaganda’
Possible Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson suggested over the weekend that religion was necessary for testing scientific theories because the science could be “propaganda.”
On Sunday, NBC’s Chuck Todd asked Carson, a former neurosurgeon, how science could coexist with his conservative Christian principles.
“A person’s religious beliefs are the things that make them who they are, gives them a direction in their life,” Carson opined. “But I do not believe that religious beliefs should dictate one’s public policies and stances.”
“I find, a very good measure of correlation between my religious beliefs and my scientific beliefs — people say, how can you be a scientist, how can you be a surgeon if you don’t believe in certain things?” he continued. “Maybe those things aren’t scientific. Maybe it’s just propaganda.”

When that's what the democratic selection of the people to whom we entrust the organising of our society has been reduced to.A thinly–veiled attempt to court the Creationist vote early on.
He hasn't a hope.

We are in deep doo doo.
Except it hasn't been reduced to that. No right thinking yank would vote for a creationist. And thankfully there's enough of them still left to ensure that there won't be any of these loons near the White house any time soon.
Wrong thinking ones would. Thankfully they're a minority.
I stick to my doo doo point.
