== Evolutionism ==
Robertson is a known [[evolution]]ist, affirming his support of evolutionist dogma in February 2014, shortly after Ken Ham debated Bill Nye on the subject of evolution. <ref>http://www.nbcnews.com/id/16442877/#.U4e2yZRdX0R</ref> On his own television program, Robertson suggested that supporting creationism is akin to making "a joke of ourselves." He further displayed his ignorance of Biblical Principles and Creation Science by stating that "we have skeletons of dinosaurs that go back like 65 million years. And to say that it all came around 6 thousand years ago is nonsense."
