The Santorum Presidency Will Rejuvenate The Dark Ages

We already have a super majority of Catholics on the U.S. Supreme Court and if we add another member of the  Opus Dei as U.S. President, we will definitely start another Inquisition. I would even bet that a Santorum Administration would rename the office of Attorney General in the Department of Justice to the Grand Inquisitor.

From there it isn't too difficult to foresee the resulting trials and burning at the stake for those atheist heretic scientists that deny biblical teachings of  a young earth, global climate change, and creationism. P.Z. Myers better not be in the country on inauguration day when Roberts swears in the Santorum.

It also won't be too healthy for any public science teacher in the country who refuse to kowtow to the religious right by agreeing to teach alchemy over chemistry, astrology over astronomy, or biology over creationism. I foresee them being arrested, arraigned, tried and taken out and publicly hung by the neck as Witches. Needless to ad that just about every mid-wife, and Board Certified OB-GYN will be hanging right beside the teachers (Witches).

The best part is that thanks to Dubya, Cheney, and John Soo, the Santorum Justice Departments' Grand Inquisitor will have no problem getting confessions from all these Witches and scientists. He will have the same full complement of torture techniques that Inquisitors of the past enjoyed.

Think it can't happen? Better think again. I used to think that state laws mandating forced-pregnancy in cases of rape and incest were begging to populate the country with inbred morons. Then I discovered that 20 states already formally legalize marriage and reproduction between first cousins and another six allow for first cousins to marry with limitations. That's over half the country, and these include California and New York. What is really amazing is that North Carolina adds a proviso that double first cousins marriages are not legal. That means they are in the rest of the 20 states. A  double first cousin marriage carries with it the same inbred mental and health problems that result when siblings reproduce.

This surely demonstrates we have the potential for one hell of a lot of inbred idiots. The same who will be voting and I predict they will be voting for the Santorum.
