These guys are great. They made some videos where they hang around a college campus and ambush kids coming out of Biology classes and ask idiotic 'gotcha' questions (something like the clever "why are there still apes" and "I've never seen a dat"), as if they expect these kids to defend evolution.

Love it.

Krose,

To me this gets at one of the biggest problems fundamentalist religion causes in our country that has real world ramifications - it places a door on our youth's educations that they declare taboo and a pandora's box to be opened at one's peril.

When we can teach evolution at a level in our high schools that this sad shtick has no traction with anyone who attended class maybe we'll have made an important advance in regaining our place as a leader in education in the world. But I seriously doubt it will happen before then.

A quote from that article - "“American Protestantism is more fundamentalist than anybody except perhaps the Islamic fundamentalist, which is why Turkey and we are so close,” said study co-author Jon Miller of Michigan State University."

and

"Politics is also contributing to America's widespread confusion about evolution, the researchers say. Major political parties in the United States are more willing to make opposition to evolution a prominent part of their campaigns to garner conservative votes—something that does not happen in Europe or Japan."

My personal favorite was the guy who came to my high school (I think it was my anthro class, not sure) and put a bag of dirt on the table. Since it didn't evolve during his talk it was clear that evolution was false.

lmao

This thread should be titled the believers nightmare. The peanut butter thing was bad, really really really bad. Incomprehensibly bad. Is there any choice but to immediatly become an atheist?
