I believe in God AND science.

This is interesting, and it is quite possible to believe both.  It is well know that many of the early scientist's were avowed bible believing Christians who did their scientific work to understand God's creation and His natural laws.  It would be interesting to understand how you view science and God's word.  It is a discussion that is not condusive to numerous posts on this board.  But for starters, I am literalist and believe in a 7 day creation period. However the most important aspect is not whether you believe in a seven day period or if it actually took longer than 7 literal days, but that God actively created the universe and has actively worked since the beginning in the lives of his creation.  And, even more importantly, that God's MORAL law is absolute and is not invalid no matter what scientific evidence we may find.  Holiness is more important to God than scientific knowledge that we may possess.

Not you, but show me where you called out anyone else for this low info voter thing.

 

Different deal...if you vote for any candidate and know nothing about them, you are a low information voter.

 

If you have a different opinion than me on a subject that you have bothered to research and draw a different conclusion, I may think you are wrong (and you me) but I wouldn't call you a low information poster.

Although I am not a literalist in the sense that God created the heavens and earth in 7 days, I could not agree with this post more. Ultimately, it does not matter...it is the belief it is God's handiwork that matters.

Let me agree with LumRaider:  Just because someone disagrees with me/us does not necessarily make them a Low Information Voter.  All I can say is -- Connect the dots...

I would classify those who accept bald face lies as reliable information to be low information voters.  Not because they arent capable of understanding its a lie but because they believe that the motive behind the lie is ok or because the liar is a nice/likeable person.  Hence they do not care to pursue the facts/truth as it may give the "other guy" the upper hand.

Not a different deal. The people who throw that term around no basically nothing about the people they are calling out. You have no real idea how much these people know, or don't know, about the candidates. Frankly, most people don't keep up the the issues and political platforms of all the candidates. By your definition, most people, and that includes Republicans, vote with low information.

 I think in a different thread to a question asked by PamFam I said that low information voters reside along the political spectrum (Democrat, Independent and Republican).  The question that can't be definatively answered is where is the largest concentration of them!!  You would assert that would be in the Republican camp, I assert they are in he Democratic camp.  If you can find any INDEPENDENT data that would show the distribution let us know. I do not think any data exists to show as almost assuredly it would have too much subjectivity too it to be reliable.

The election of obama -- a non-qualified, incompetent empty suit is proof that the majority of Low Information Voters resides in the Democratic party.  The man-child is in over his head.  He can't even secure our borders.  And people still support him.

      He's steadily improving rapidly. Not that your opinion matters much based on some of the wild projections you've made on this site

      Cohen……a lying, backstabbing pos who does nothing but lie every time he opens his mouth. Let him utter words the prosecution wants to hear, and we can convict. Cohen told his ex advisor that he wanted to kill himself. What a worldly loss that would be. Let anyone on this board be put through the wringer with false charges and lies like Trump has had to endure, and you would be screaming at the top of your lungs how illegal all of this is.

      It was and remains perfectly timed and choregraphed Kangaroo Court, whatever Cohen just said or lied about.  Face it, under Soros installed Biden and Merrick Garland, the USA is now officially a Bananna Republic with a Goverment that weaponizes itself against and destroys its political rivals. Putin and Xi are SO proud!  Dang I miss Democracy.

      I haven’t been watching closely, but even the liberal sources even tell the story as “the defense really took apart Cohen’s testimony on Thursday.” It sounds like sloppy work from the prosecution to point out a specific call as being “the one,” when it was easily concluded that this particular call could not have occurred the way that Cohen (and the prosecution) claim it to have happened.    The bad news is that I doubt that it matters much-I suspect that most jurors minds were closed before testimony started.   I don’t see Trump leaving with anything less than a conviction based on the venue (NYC).

      Governor Abbott pardons Daniel Perry for murder during protest…

      By bullets13 · Posted

      Tough case all the way around.  The guy had a lot of online activity come out where he made racist statements and statements about killing BLM protesters and looters.  So when he then goes out and does it, it looks really bad.  I've seen a lot of videos where people have driven through protestors, defended themselves against them, etc., and didn't bat an eye.  This feels different, but that doesn't necessarily make it murder, either.  His account of the events that happened vs. the witness accounts were both very different, but I'd also expect both sides' accounts to be self-serving and inaccurate to fit their narrative.  Not really sure what to think on this one.
