And I assume he speaks for the other members of the Film Actors Guild? I hope to god that he was asked a question about acting and just went off on a tangent, because what kind of journalist asks Matt Damon for his views on national politics?

That said I agree 100% with what he says, and if I could step into an alternate universe where she was president, I would love to see her go up against Putin.

The important question is: Does this lady really think that the dinousauros were here about 4000 years ago? In other words, can we expect from this lady, Ms Palin (and Mr. McCain)a explicit support to the creacionism movement which seems to spread thoughout America -like fungi, I would add- as an “alternative” to serious scientific explanations of the origin of the species and, in a broader sense, to the Universe itself?

We must clearly point out that this movement defends, for example, that children in schools should be thought that the age of the earth is around 6000 years (NO MORE); that the human beings convived with the dinosaurs aobut a few thousands yaers ago; that the biblie is a book of a higher SCIENTIFIC value any other one and that, therefore, any finding in science should be commdened if contradicts the bible, etc.
What can I say:
-Carbon 14 dating?
-fossil records that clearly date million of years back?
-geological and physical evidencies?
-modern genetic evidences?

NO “VADE-RETRO-SATANAS”. The bible and only the bible contains the Complete and Holy thruth. Only a interpretation of this book letter by letter given by WHO? is allowed. The rest is … just merely the modest advances of Science during the last three centuries at least. Hard, very hard advance for the Humanity by the way!. LETS RETURN TO GALLILEO! THE EARTH SHOULD BE DECLARED TO BE PLANE NOT SPHERICAL..
NOTICE: Importantly, even the Vatican, have explicity pointed out in several occasions (clearly since the Council Vatican II) that these theories are simply NO SENSE.

It is fundamentalism paradoxically growing in the ccountry of the freedom. And scary, very, very scary! Why?
Because it is clearly a manipulative movement in which millions and millioms of dollars (USA dollars) have been used to acomplish POLITICAL MANIPULATION of populations.
-LETS PRODUCE A MASSIVE AMIOUNT OF PEOPLE WHO DO NOT QUESTION ANYTHING WHICH IS GIVEN AS THE “HOLY AND THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE THUTH”.
-LETS PRODUCE MILLION OF NON-CRITIC-ACOLITES TO WHOME ONLY RIGHT IS TO SAY AMEN.
- AND LETS ERODE, IF NECESARY THE FUNDAMENTS OF SCIENCE AND THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD TO ACCOMPLISH THE AIMS (RELIGIOUS???).

NB: I deliberated do not mention serious scientific theories, for the obvious due respect to the work of the countless honest scientists who have enriched Humanity with their hard work during the last centuries.
