| Description | State Rep. Gary Hopper believes teaching children the theory of evolution results in a “hopelessness” that is one of the primary factors motivating teenagers to commit mass shootings.
“If you are a child raised in a situation and you’re depressed, you could look at that particular piece of information and conclude that we are no better or worse than any other parasite on the planet,” Hopper said. “And if you follow the logic of the science in school today, not only are you a parasite on the planet, you are destroying the host that you are born on.” |
