I heard what he said many years ago regarding the pyramids. Not hearing the full context of the statement, I do feel that his comment was based on ignorance. But, that is based on only what I heard.
However, I would be interested in hearing what you assume to be factual regarding evolution. Because I have yet to see ANY factual evidence supporting evolution. But, that is for another thread. If you base your decision on voting purely on one's view regarding something like this, then you are in the minority because the majority of Americans believe in a deity. So, if they believe in the Bible then they also believe in creation. It just goes to show you that even most scientists believe in creation.
But, I also know that this is all a moot point, because you are not looking for a reason to NOT vote for Carson. You are looking for a reason for ME to not vote for Carson.
Carson is a very well learned and experienced medical professional, but still an amateur when it comes to politics. He would make a good supporting cabinet member in the government, but is not ready (in my opinion) for the leadership position. Of course, Obama is not yet ready for a leadership position either, but......
