Mike Huckabee Quotes
It doesn't embarrass me one bit to let you know that I believe Adam and Eve were real people.
Huckabee, Mike. Do the Right Thing: Inside the Movement That's Bringing Common Sense Back to America. Sentinel, 2008.
This quotation is noteworthy because although there are some scientists who are sympathetic to the religious fundamentalist view of the origin of the universe, they are almost always second class scientists. In this case, the scientist is a first class scientist, a Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry. So his quotation has more weight than of most others and is used more often by many fundamentalists who support the Biblical Genesis version of creation rather than the Big Bang scientific explanations and evolution. There are however many great scientists who also are people of faith in a God. They may be religious, but like most religious Americans, interpret the Bible metaphorically and symbolically rather than literally as the fundamentalists do.
