I didn't cite that large document. Claiming that I did is not arguing in good faith.

The particular example of creationism comes from the Texas GOP's platform. https://scienceblogs.com/insolence/2012/06/28/the-texas-repu...

You can certainly see echoes of it in the national platform. That is no mistake.

That article is from 2012 and is about the Texas GOP. It seems like this claim was not true.

I never claimed it was in the national platform. You are once again arguing in bad faith.

I don't live in Texas in 2012, so that isn't part of my parties platform. I suppose you agree with every element of every state democrat platform ever published. Well post Jim Crow of course.

Texas is the largest GOP state, and as the other poster showed, that faith based stuff is mirrored at the national level.
