    this has to make him the frontrunner for 2016.  one well placed comment minimizing rape and he'll have the nomination locked up.

    The effing GOP just needs to kick the religious wing of the party out. That's the only chance they have to remain relevant and to steal some of the support from members of the traditionally Democratic base. Actually, you don't need to kick the religious wing out, you just need them to STFU and not be in positions of power.

    ClubDirt, I can't find in your link where Rubio stated, that the Earth is a couple hundred years old  .. or a few thousand.. or whether the Earth is billions of years old ...
     
    All I see is that he sorta dodged the "Q"..and didn't know ..
     
    Like Obama did ..in "08"

    Q: Senator, if one of your daughters asked you—and maybe they already have—“Daddy, did god really create the world in 6 days?,” what would you say?

    A: What I've said to them is that I believe that God created the universe and that the six days in the Bible may not be six days as we understand it … it may not be 24-hour days, and that's what I believe. I know there's always a debate between those who read the Bible literally and those who don't, and I think it's a legitimate debate within the Christian community of which I'm a part. My belief is that the story that the Bible tells about God creating this magnificent Earth on which we live—that is essentially true, that is fundamentally true. Now, whether it happened exactly as we might understand it reading the text of the Bible: That, I don't presume to know.

    slim, if i ask a politician what 2 + 2 is and i get any answer other than 4, it's time to fire away. 

    Whether the Earth was created in 7 days, or 7 actual eras, I'm not sure we'll ever be able to answer that. It's one of the great mysteries.

    yeah rubio, as to the 7 days part or a few hundred years or a few thousand years, which contextually, are basically the same, i think we are able to answer that. 

    where do they get these people from?  the republicans have an endless supply.

    yeah rubio, as to the 7 days part or a few hundred years or a few thousand years, which contextually, are basically the same, i think we are able to answer that. 

    where do they get these people from?  the republicans have an endless supply. 






    Ridiculing Rubio after that babblefest??

    i guess the question is:  is rubio that fuckin dumb and warped or do these republican idiots still feel like they have to cater to the religious nuts and provide answers like this irregardless of how incredibly stupid it makes them look?  and then, which is worse?

    slim, i've answered it before but it's worth repeating.  the answer to the second question is clearly, no.  i have no problem with anyone who is religious and don't think less of them for being so.  religious nuts are the ones, most often hypocrites, who use their god or their religion to discriminate against others, manipulate others, spread misinformation, push their agenda for their own self interests and basically use god and/or religion for their own personal gain. religious nuts can also include people who use jesus's name to justify behavior that is so un-jesus-like.  it's almost to the point that the opposite of jesus-like = vocal christian.  religious nuts could also include people who say completely off the wall crazy garbage in the name of their religion.  when it's done publicly, as in rubio's case, it will fit into one of the above categories.

    How, ON EARTH, does this following answer, read Rubio thinks the Earth is a couple hundred years old?

    GQ: How old do you think the Earth is? 
    Marco Rubio: I'm not a scientist, man. I can tell you what recorded history says, I can tell you what the Bible says, but I think that's a dispute amongst theologians and I think it has nothing to do with the gross domestic product or economic growth of the United States. I think the age of the universe has zero to do with how our economy is going to grow. I'm not a scientist. I don't think I'm qualified to answer a question like that. At the end of the day, I think there are multiple theories out there on how the universe was created and I think this is a country where people should have the opportunity to teach them all. I think parents should be able to teach their kids what their faith says, what science says. Whether the Earth was created in 7 days, or 7 actual eras, I'm not sure we'll ever be able to answer that. It's one of the great mysteries.

    let's look at it again.

    iveycheats, if i have a friend over christmas morning and he asks how all the presents got under the tree and i say, well, i can tell you what the movie rudolph the red nosed reindeer says and i can tell you that another possibility is that a human being bought them and put them there late last night after the kid's went to sleep and there is also a tooth fairy who gets in here and leaves gifts from time to time. 

    at the end of the day, there are multiple theories to explain these presents and whether it was santa claus or the tooth fairy or my wife, there's really no way to answer that.   and if i was serious like i assume rubio was, you're walking away from that encounter thinking i think santa claus may exist and the tooth fairy may exist.  just like rubio probably does.   at best, you're walking away from that discussion thinking i'm a fuckin nutjob.  again, like rubio.

    I'm not in this thread to discuss religion, God, or how old I myself think how old the Earth is.....

    For the record, I think the GOP needs to step away from religious nuts myself............that being said, your thread title made me open the link because I was interested...........AND, Rubio said nothing like what you insinuated........his answer was fine IMO.....it shouldn't piss anyone off and didn't come across as too nutty either

    ivey, ClubDirtSports.com thread titles are designed for a specific purpose, which just so happens to be the purpose you mentioned which is to get people to open the thread.  in addition to being a sports investment service, ClubDirtSports.com is also a media outlet and we have followed the media trend of shocking the public while we also inform it.

    all that being said, i stand by opinion of rubio based on his statements and my supporting arguments provided in posts 5 & 9.

    captain, i have it all going in my house right now.  we have the elf who flies back to santa every night to report on the kids' behavior and comes back in a new spot every morning, sometimes with notes.  i never knew about that one when i was a kid but it's fuckin awesome. 

    we have santa claus, the tooth fairy, the easter bunny, what the f*ck do you call those little green people for st. patrick's day?  the name escapes me but they come on st. patrick's day and f*ck up the kids room with green confetti and other stuff.  what else?  my kid just taught me a new one.  the sandman comes at night and drops little grains of sand in their eyes to help them go to sleep.

    i loved hearing my oldest kid tell her little sister how ridiculous it is that she thinks fairies and princesses are real and in the next sentence talk about how elves and santa claus are real.  i swear i've had to have that same discussion with multiple people here on covers.

    never heard about the elves delivering messages when i was a kid either. If i had been aware, i feel quite certain they would have been hunted for with my bb gun. Those little green fellas are called leprokahn's, and they're what bama is having for dinner in a little over a month. Enjoy these days, they'll be gone before you know it
