(previous page...) What exactly are Michele Bachmann's beliefs and upon what are Congresswoman Michele Bachmann's beliefs founded? We start with the foundation of Michele Bachmann's beliefs. According to Michele Bachmann, her beliefs are founded on the Bible, which Michele Bachmann upholds above fallible human beliefs and understanding. During her September 2003 interview at the KKMS radio station, Michele Bachmann shared: "I look at the Scripture and I read it and I take it for what it is. I give more credence in the Scripture as being kind of a timeless word of God to mankind, and I take it for what it is." When human 'wisdom' contradicts the Bible, she sides with the Word of God. Regarding the origin of life, for example, she told KKMS in 2003, "Evolution is a theory that has never been proven one way or the other." (Actually, evolution is a theory that continues to be disproven by scientific facts (evidence)). Regarding homosexuality, she said in 2004: "We need to have profound compassion for people who are dealing with the very real issue of sexual dysfunction in their life and sexual identity disorders." On March 20, 2004, the state Senator Michele Bachmann recounted to KKMS: "Two homosexuals that were holding up my picture this week at the [state] Capitol and shouting that I want to hate people, I walked up to them and said, 'I don’t hate you. I love you and the Savior who created you. He loves you, too, can I tell you why?'" (...cont'd)
