Your ideology let you see what you wanted to see.
Here's a reminder of why the consensus that your position is entirely delusional was reached:

he was talking against secular humanism.
Bullshit! he never says that, "radical secular ideology" is vague enough that you could make up any excuse for his anti-education stance you want.
But instead of scouring these clips for secret hand signals, read his fucking legislation:
quote:
ORIGINAL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santorum_Amendment
The Santorum Amendment was a failed proposed amendment to the 2001 education funding bill (which became known as the No Child Left Behind Act), proposed by Republican Rick Santorum (who was at that time the United States Senator for Pennsylvania), which promoted the teaching of intelligent design while questioning the academic standing of evolution in U.S. public schools.
He's a young earth creationist, he's trying to replace science education with his young earth creationist beliefs. I know this is true not just because he has said so but because he has written the legislation to do it.
When he rants about smart people thinking they are superior, this is what he's talking about:
quote:
ORIGINAL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santorum_Amendment
In response, a coalition of 96 scientific and educational organizations wrote a letter to the conference committee, urging that the amendment be stricken from the final bill, arguing that evolution is, in the scientific fields, regarded as fact and that the amendment creates the mis-perception that evolution is not fully accepted in the scientific community, and thus weakens science curricula. The words of the amendment survive in modified form in the Bill's Conference Report and do not carry the weight of law. As one of the Discovery Institute intelligent design campaigns it became a cornerstone in the intelligent design movement's "Teach the Controversy" campaign.
He's angry that scientists know more about science than he does.
Have any unbiased person watch the tape and see what they think.
The "consensus" that my position was delusional was only reached by those who disagree with Santorum's politics, aka, the Usual Suspects. I don't expect you to agree with me. I never have. I've proven that I am educated. I do not take unprincipled stands. Every stand I have has some basis, even if it's a faith in God. Your continued attempts to knock me down aren't working, haven't worked yet, and won't work in the future. The things you quoted here don't prove a fucking thing about the meaning of his comment, nor does it disprove my assertion about his nonverbal communication. You have the choice to ignore that portion of communication, and I expect you will, unless it's your side doing the communicating. Enjoy.
