Views of candidates for 5th Congressional District:
Creationism should not be taught in schools, said [Jim] Piccillo, a Catholic. [Rich] Nugent, a Christian, disagrees, saying he’s comfortable with the theory being mentioned in science class.
“I think that’s a positive thing to expose children to multiple ideas,” Nugent said.
One candidate is described as a “Catholic”, the other as a “Christian”.
The politicians are not the only ones in need of a fact-check here.
I noticed that, too. Just weird.
This is, in fact, the case. Nugent claims to be Christian. Piccillo is a confirmed Catholic.
