That the republican party, the party of traitors and fuckwits, isn’t a fringe party is an indictment on America. We fucking deserve trump, idiots that we are.

Whelp if science is a religion, at least our pastors aren't covering up for child-molestation.
But seriously though, even when not being grifters, it's like as though conservatives just never developed a theory of mind - they can't process the idea of people who don't possess some kind of dogmatic faith.
Some people prefer to follow where the evidence leads, rather than what the pastor says.
But like it’s not faith it’s literally facts and logic
Let's have a contest. Let's see who can get to the moon first. She can build temples, and churches, make sacrifices at holy shrines, and get thousands and thousands of people to pray for her to get there. Me, I'll take a rocket built by scientists.
She couldn't even get across an ocean or to the top of the highest mountains on Earth with nothing but religion. She couldn't even feed her drivel to her ~~victims~~, sorry, listeners if scientists hadn't developed the various technologies used to send her words and images to them.
The "false science deity" is evidence lol.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Candace Owens has described science as a "pagan faith," after saying she had been reading literature supporting the theory that Earth is flat, rather than spherical.
Owens made the statement on Monday's episode of Candace, the podcast she launched last month following her exit from the Daily Wire in March.
Explaining her stance, Owens, who recently announced that she had converted to Catholicism, took aim at, among other things, COVID-19 vaccines and safety measures that were implemented at the height of the pandemic.
Owens proceeded to play a clip of controversial influencer Andrew Tate, in which he expressed his own distrust of scientific data during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Owens said that she was open to reading literature on flat-Earth theory not because she believed in a flat Earth, but because she disbelieved "the notion that science is ever settled."
"It just keeps turning out that if you follow the Bible and believe in biblical scripture, your life gets better and better and better," added Owens, who recently said a "Christian holocaust" was taking place around the world.
The original article contains 883 words, the summary contains 177 words. Saved 80%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Utterly moronic of her.
When a political governing body, not associated to any of the sciences, claims it owns the science... that's when we need to pay closer attention to the scientific method before we start claiming scientific facts.
Can you summarize the main point of the video?
The video I posted?
"We own the science, Google will comply with our demands and eliminate any questions/criticizations/opposing views in their search results about what we say about science"
Pagan baby won't you rock with me
Obviously a gener stealer cultists! Don't listen to her lies! She trying to weaken us.
As a pagan, we’ll take it.
