You are sadly mistaken, they believe it with all the might of their stunning ignorance. Young earth, the ark, etc. It is absolutely factual to far too many evangelicals.

Over a year ago I was getting my hair cut, pre-covid, and one of the barbers was talking to the customer in his chair about his trip to the ark experience in Kentucky, and going on about how factual it was and couldn't comprehend why some doubt it.
BUT WHERE DID ALL THE WATER GO?


:p

Using covid-19 to disprove evolution is the most ignorant and ass backwards thing you can say.

Watching the covid variants spread and further change is LITERALLY watching evolution in near real time.

God she's so stupid...

This is a standard belief among evangelicals, of which, it has been mentioned, many if not most republicans pols are.

In other words, this is just mainstream batshittery.

I think she might be right. If you look at her and Trump and Trumpers, it's kind of proof that a lot of people simply do not evolve. In fact they are actually going backwards.


"Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) asserted on Tuesday that COVID-19 was a "bioweapon" and said she did not believe otherwise "because I don't believe in evolution." "

Says the chick that looks like she just stepped off the set of Clan of the Cave Bear. :rolleyes:

Evolution does not believe in her either

Why does a belief that COVID19 is a bioweapon necessitate a disbelief in evolution? Can't COVID19 be say a gift from God?

Well, it does seem to favor wiping out the Trumptards and other fascist, demagogue-worshippers around the world, in a rather disproportionate manner.

So, maybe?

Exactly my thought.

And does it also say God, unhappy with the little creation, reaches down his hand to change the virus to create even nastier variants? An ol fashioned smoting if there ever was one.

South Africa? Is, that, a gay person, being not stoned? Thys been smoted!
Brazil? Gay! Feel my righteous smoting upon you!
UK? Gay! Smote to you!
NY and CA! GAY! SMOTETH!
INDIA?! BLASPHEME AND GAY! SMOTARAMA TO ALL!!!

Actually, there's a theory that there is a vast ocean hundreds of miles underground...

Deep Underground, Oceans Of Water May Be Trapped In A Crystal 'Sponge'

Scientists have discovered evidence of a vast reservoir of water hiding up to 400 miles beneath the surface.

The discovery could transform our understanding of how the planet was formed, suggesting that Earth's water may have come from within, rather than from collisions with large, icy comets.

The water is trapped in a blue mineral called ringwoodite that sits in the mantle, a hot, rocky layer between the Earth's crust and outer core. That means the water is not the familiar liquid, vapor or ice, but a fourth, mineral form. We reported earlier this year on a rare diamond containing a microscopic piece of ringwoodite that bolstered evidence for the vast wet zone.

"If just 1 percent of the weight of mantle rock located in the transition zone was water it would be equivalent to nearly three times the amount of water in our oceans," Geophysicist Steve Jacobsen from Northwestern University, said.

This is an interesting theological question.
Many ways of interpreting it.
One could fight your known observations and say everything happened word for word as it is written
or
One could view it as a story that is meant to convey a message, that being the message is more important than the exact facts of what happened
or
Something in between. God willed there to be a flood and raised the water.

That is all, not trying to change this into theology about the Old Testament

Just think. People like MTG are able to legally drive a 2 ton vehicle and purchase and carry semi-automatic weapons.

No, god is a republican. Democrats caused COVID.

As a bullshitting deplorable I know proudly said March or April of 2020.
“Liberal Scientists caused this to undermine Trumps trade deal with China”

Yes he said those exact words. No explanation of what Trumps trade deal was or why a virus was introduced to foil said trade deal.


BTW I love the guy, he occasionally has some great insight on things and is all around an interesting guy.
His Politics are beyond fucked up.

I would have assumed that was her position. Can't imagine why this is even news. Can't you figure people out?
