I'd like to know who you're going to vote for and what side of the creationism/evolution debate you're on.

Thanks

The term "creationism" might have been more appropriate to ensure an understanding of the dichotomy because, as you probably know already, you'll find a number of theists here who claim that "creation" and "evolution" are not mutually exclusive concepts. Hopefully people understand that anyway though.
That said, I voted Kerry/Evolution. |
