"I need to know if she really thinks Dinasours were here 4000 years ago -- I need to know that -- She will have the nuclear codes."This guy is a Cretin.http://www.breitbart.tv/html/171553.html I loved Matt Damon in that clip. And I think anyone who bashes him for being a Hollywood liberal as "being pro-active" while in the spotlight is completely dishonest.He's in the limelight as a famous actor. He was asked about his opinion from the interviewer. He gave his very honest opinion. That doesn't qualify him as a "cretin".I am also concerned (like Matt Damon) about leaders who are serious about Creationism. It's the biggest load of crap that is attempting to be forced down our throats as "legitimate scientific ideas". It's bad enough that this society has to deal with religious fundamentalists, but a person vying for a position of real authority that spouts this outrageous crap is a real concern.He was honest in being frightened about Sarah Palin becoming president just like many of us are. His joke about the bad Disney movie was funny. He had the ability to recognize that Palin was picked for political purposes and not by her qualifications for a presidential administration.You can disagree with the things he says, but you have absolutely no ground to stand on by calling him a cretin because of his answer.Why is he a cretin and not irishguy or other liberal posters on FCP? Because I'm sure their opinions on Palin would match up. Link to post Share on other sites
irishguy 14 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Asked his opinion and gives it.

GO!LOLthis is A HUGE joke!!!!!First off, the information coming out of the modern day creationist movement is NOT dated back to George Washington so you couldn't even claim they're on your side if you wanted to.The technology, back then, did not exist to give us the understanding of reality that we have today. There is absolutely no excuse for outrageous creationist bullshit that is completely unfounded. And I do sincerely doubt the PRESIDENTIAL judgment of a person who STILL (with ALL of the resources that we have today) spouts this crap.And I'm sure George Washington wasn't spouting his proud beliefs that Jesus was buddies with a gd brontosaurus. So why don't you try bringing some honesty into this discussion instead of trying to create unintelligible traps with completely dishonest intentions?If I lived in the 1700's, I might believe some crazy shit, too.Today, you have absolutely no excuse. You can get away with all kinds of spiritual stuff that can't be held to scientific observation, but you can NOT get away with lying about the age of the earth when we can show you incontrovertible evidence otherwise.

CaneBrain 97 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 his claim of looking at actuarial tables and claiming they show >33% chance of death in the next 4 years qualifies him as a cretin. Hes either a liar or doesnt have a clue about what he read.you have this habit of watching/reading someone write/talk about 15 ideas and then picking the one you dont like and only commenting on that. besides the actuary comment, what did you think of the rest? I got the feeling that Mr. Damon feels the same way a lot of people do about Sara Palin and that his reasons are legitimate. Just because he should stay away from pretending to be an insurance wizard does not mean the rest of what he said is invalid. Link to post Share on other sites
hblask 1 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 First, I mostly don't care what celebrities think. Why should I?Second, some people do care, so they asked him, and he answered. What's the big deal?Third, answers like that show why the Palin pick was genius. People start looking at her experience, and then say instead I'll vote for Obama, whose experience includes.... well, it's pretty similar to Palin, except Obama has no executive level experience while she does. And he's at the top of the ticket, she's only the VP. And people who care what celebrities think are probably more susceptible to these kinds of arguments. Link to post Share on other sites

There is no such thing as "incontrovertible evidence" when youre dealing with an omnicsicent, all powerful entity. What motive would he have to "fool" everyone? Irony? To test "true believers"?
