Its funny the Republican Party's ideology is more in tune with the Darwinian evolutionary idea than creationism but yet most of the rank and file consider themselves religious and god fearing. The Democrats or liberals (American style) on the other hand believe in social justice, protecting the weak, more laws and order (not the TV show), ...etc. These ideas are more in line with creationism concept of the MAKER wanting everything for his children than ungodly pagans that they known to be.

The republicans believe in deregulated free market without any controls which is more like natural selection ideas of the evolution. The selfish gene if allowed to propagate and provide all that is needed for social safeguards since that is how "self" can survive.

I guess that is why both sides of the American mainstream political "fans" (followers) are so screwed up and unpredictable. They have split personality and can't seem to stay with even the core belief system of their respective politics.

Thanks to mass media we don't have to think much about any of that since experts will explain them to us on a daily bases.
