In light of Bill McKibben’s recent talk about his 350.org movement, I wanted to share this video which illustrates a very typical American debate over science and evolution.
The host Chris Matthews, known for being somewhat liberal (arguable), has asked this Republican congressman Mike Pence if he believes in evolution. Pence never answers the question directly but instead dances around it and proceeds to make anti-science arguements about global warming and stem cells. The point of this clip is that this guy represents the views of a large portion of American citizens.
I found it funny and for those not familiar with American politics, this video explains a lot.
