But nah, there's no religious influence whatsoever on the Republican party.
UPDATE
Sullivan points to this post by a Catholic blogger, pointing out that Brownback, who converted, has no business questioning evolution. And there's this tidbit:
Lest there is any doubt about this hypothesis, simply note that the denial of evolution is concentrated in a small group of American evangelicals. You do not see Christians around the world disdaining science in such a manner. And it goes beyond evolution. Just look at the global warming debate. In a recent poll, despite the overwhelming consensus of the evidence, only 13 percent of Republicans in Congress believe human activity is leading to global warming.Your GOP, 2007.
