I've never understood the sense in how it is politically or socially viable to entertain the delusions of a group of people who really *are* stuck in a time-warp. The Creationist viewpoint is full of hoary old nostrums that Thomas Lyell and Charles Darwin debunked 150 years ago.

So? Obama is also on record talking about is belief in god, and also his belief in marriage being a sacred institution between a man and woman.

Now what we've calmed down about that fact that she was talking about god, same as many most Democrat politicians do, what did she say?

"God continued to strengthen and empower us when, you know, his strength is perfected in our weakness, and that’s what’s exciting," Ms. O’Donnell told a CBN reporter, Jennifer Wishon. "Because you see that if it weren’t for faith, when all logic said it’s time to quit, we pursued. We marched on, because we knew God was not releasing us to quit.

So she's crediting god and her faith for giving her strength to continue her campaign in the face of adversity. Yes, this is terribly, terribly evil and horrible.

Christine O'Donnell denies evolution and simultaneously advocates banning masturbation while living off a live-in boyfriend and unable to remember whether or not she attended college at Oxford. If that's the best the Christian Right can do.....

She's a wee bit kooky, in my humble opinion, unfortunately people have just that much confidence in her opponent.

She's not crediting her faith here. She's implying her political career is part of God's divine plan.
