Young people learn modern biology, DeLay said, which in turn makes them feel insignificant, which in turn leads to violence.&rdquo; And now, stepping up to the plate less than 24 hours after the 2007 Virginia Tech shootings is creationist Ken Ham, with a totally bogus argument blaming science and legalized abortion for this tragedy as well.
