What do conservatives know about science? They believe that "Samson" grew weaker from a "haircut".
The Flintstones is a documentary.
Noah's Ark was a true historical event and the "Grand Canyon" is "proof".
Republicans teaching "Little Known Facts".

Well this con knows a whole hell of a lot more about science than you ever will bucko.
Usually, when people brag that they know "so much", it's based on "delusional over confidence".
Recently I went to one of those seminars where they pay you $250 for a couple of hours to sit in front of a two way mirror at a big table with a bunch of engineers and talk about "engineering software, you know, 3d modeling, computational fluid dynamics, stress analysis and heat transfer and dynamic simulation.
It takes about 45 minutes or so to figure out who actually knows what they are talking about. So, how is it possible for half the people there to even be there when they clearly don't know what they are talking about?
It's because half of those people are managers and they don't actually use any of that software. To manage an engineering department, you only have to manage the results, you don't really need to use the tools. They just wanted the 250 bucks and thought they would BS their way through it, and they did.
You see, those that were managers talked about how they imagined the software worked, but they had no real experience. So it took the moderator some time to figure out who actually knew their stuff. You see, the moderator didn't know how to use it either. He was following questions that were given him. Every so often, he left to come back with new questions directed at certain people.
So what's the point? Well, I'm getting there.
That's like Republicans and science. They BS their way though how they "imagine" science to be. I've never met a Republican that you could get into a serious scientific discussion with because their ideas of science are so strange.
And not just science, but also scientists. What it takes to be a scientist, what real peer review means, what scientists actually do or even, "What is the Scientific Method".
So while you "brag" that you know "so much science", and maybe you do, based on other Republicans I've known, I doubt it.
What's especially hilarious are the conservatives on this board who say some bizarre nonsense, ended with, "There, you just got schooled". And then walk away giving themselves "virtual snap".
Who ever said I was a republican? I've been a Democrat my whole life numbnuts. I guess that blows your whole ridiculous theory out the window huh?
