Evolution: Perry Right, Huntsman Wrong?

Knowing little about former Utah Governor John Huntsman, except that he was hand-picked by Barack Obama to be his man in China, it was revealing to learn through his recent statements that he belongs to “the debate is over” crowd. The “debate is over” crowd never bellows louder than when it comes to global warming and evolution. They are the people who push fiction as if it were fact and then denigrate anyone who disagrees.

Huntsman revealed a major unawareness of current scientific data when he attacked fellow presidential candidate Rick Perry (TX-R), on his position on evolution and global warming, during an ABC interview stating:

I think there’s a serious problem. The minute that the Republican Party becomes the …anti-science party, we have a huge problem … When we take a position that isn’t willing to embrace evolution, when we take a position that basically runs counter to what 98 or 100 climate scientists have said … I think we find ourselves on the wrong side of science and, therefore, in a losing position.

Huntsman’s statements are misleading and rife with misinformation. Huntsman misleads by stating that 98 to a 100 climate scientists support global warming, but leaves out the documented fact that some 33,000 scientists worldwide consider man-made global warming to be total nonsense. The carbon-credits scheme is proving to be a scam. Yet, Huntsman appears to be a man after Al Gore’s heart. Huntsman would do well to Google the article: GLOBAL FRAUDS: AL GORE & CHARLES DARWIN at: http://darwinsracists.com/book/?p=62.

On the topic of evolution, Huntsman joins the more strident “the debate is over” crowd as he personally “embraces” evolution. Even Barack Obama was quick to give a “shout-out to Charles Darwin on his 150th birthday.” Evolution is mere theory without empirical scientific data to support it. As a life-devaluing, God-denying, racist theory, evolution was readily embraced by Karl Marx, the father of Communism, who wrote that he was “a devoted admirer” of Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution. Others who anxiously “embraced” evolution were murderous tyrant Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky – who fanatically persecuted the Christian church while claiming that Darwin’s ideas “intoxicated him.” Another avid fan of evolution was Soviet mass murderer Joseph Stalin who became a devout atheist after determining that evolution does not require conscience or morals. One politician of note who “embraced” evolution was Adolf Hitler who was an avid follower and wrote in his book, Mein Kampf, that he believed in “natural selection” and the “survival of the fittest” as propagated by Darwin. Hitler’s reign resulted in the murder of some 6 million Jews as well as Slavs, Poles, Blacks, Gypsies, homosexuals, the physically and mentally disabled and other groups he deemed unfit to live.“ (Excerpts from book: Darwin’s Racists – Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow.)

Darwin’s theory of evolution became a political tool for murderous tyrants who used it as a mechanism to devalue life, justify racism by labeling various groups of humans as less evolved and as a means to eradicate God so that the "state” could become god to the people. Avid American abortionist and purported mother of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger, embraced evolution as an argument for abortions and the denial of care for America’s poor, sick, elderly and disabled.

Where evolution and Huntsman lose legitimacy is when both face the advancements of hard science in the 21st century. DNA proteins are providing evidence against the possibility of evolution and reveal that no species can “jump its DNA code” to evolve into another species. Even in his rudimentary analysis Charles Darwin wrote: “When we descend to details, we cannot prove that a single species has changed.” Evolution scientists themselves are abandoning the theory in droves and have gone so far to say, “That it ought not to be taught in High School." Yet, Huntsman’s opponent did not take it that far. In what appears to be a balanced approach, Governor Rick Perry did say that both evolution and creation are taught in Texas schools because he thought students would be smart enough to decide for themselves. Even Charles Darwin professed serious doubts about the validity of his theory of evolution vs. creation and wrote that: "A fair result can be obtained only by fully stating and balancing the facts and arguments on both sides of each question." Charles Darwin.  At least, Darwin got that one right.
