Ben Carson - "Joseph Built Pyramids to Store Grain"

[Rajoo]

From the Wapo link:

“It’s amazing how one can be a neurosurgeon and a dimwit at the same time,” one person tweeted, echoing a common refrain.

I know for a fact that pre-med students take very easy courses in science to maintain their near perfect grade point averages. But this is mind boggling and convinces me that most physicians are one trick ponies not to mention the God complex they suffer from. In Carson we are seeing this in spades.

I agree with those who think Carson is simply pandering to the [religious/ignorant] right. There's no way he could really be so profoundly ignorant of basic scientific truths, unless he's turned cognitive dissonance into a life philosophy.
