The whole thing would be funny if it were not so tragic. In USA, plenty of people believe this nonsense, that earth was created 5000 years ago in six days. The creationism movement is very strong in USA; occasionally they convince the Boards of Education (or sometimes even the whole state, like Kansas) to try to mandate the teaching of Creationism in schools. Mercifully, all their efforts so far have been short lived. But it may only be a matter of time before Book of Genesis is taught in US public schools, along with (or in place of) evolution.

Perhaps not while Obama is the president, but just wait for the election of another whack job Republican President, like George Bush.



Incidentally, can anybody tell me where is the icon which lets you post a new thread? I haven't posted a thread here so far, but I cannot see an icon on my screen to post a new thread.,

Considering that public schools aren't even allowed to have prayers, I think your fear (despite the presidency of republican whackjobs in the past) is unfounded.

And, to post a new thread, you need to find the section you want to post in, get into that forum, and there will be a new thread button at the top of the appropriate category.

To me, the funniest part is their proposal for this research.

Phase 1

Phase I. Research, Preparations, & Expedition


  • Secure funding. [75% complete]
  • Research possible pterosaur colony locations and plan expedition accordingly.
  • Secure necessary supplies and permits for expedition.
  • Construct components of rookery complex necessary for immediate housing and care of pterosaurs upon return. [10% complete]
  • Finalize expedition team.
  • Mount expedition.
  • Locate and return pterosaur eggs and/or mature specimens.
  • Ensure health and viability of specimens.


You would think, that before embarking on a project like this, they would have at least scoped out possible colony locations FIRST. Afterall they must have some sort of reasoning to choose Pterosaurs of all things. I would think that Pleiosaurs would be even better. Nessy, Ogopogo, etc. LOL

They have 0% of this completed. But 75% of the funding required, without even knowing where the planned expeditions will be, and how much it will cost.

I have just listed on eBay several unicorns I have been raising in a shed next to the garage. Apparently there is a civic bylaw (of which I wasn't aware) in our community prohibiting raising of both mythical beasts and extinct dinosaurs (longer than 20 m, the width of our lot). I will not post the details here, as I do not wish to compromise the terms of use on this site. However, if your church would like a unicorn to spruce up their Easter celebrations, now is the time to make the purchase while I have stock on hand.
PS
I have pterosaur eggs as well. For these I charge $100 per egg, and will ship them by the dozen in Superstore egg cartons. Please specify white or brown. I will accept Visa or PayPal. Fertility is not guaranteed.

Meanwhile, according to Pravda, huge hairy women (purportedly Yeti or Sasquatch) have been lustily engaging the full-blooded men of Chermensky Gorge in the Northern Caucasus.
Weird hairy females seduce hot-blooded Caucasian men - Pravda.Ru
An expedition to this region by creationists eager to dispel the Evolutionary heresy would be warranted. Please be warned, you may need the little blue pills (as advertised on NHL hockey) as these women do not appreciate being disappointed!

Just another evangelical boondoggle to rake in a crap load of cash from gullible religious folk. I mean, if they believe in the evangelical TV hokus pokus, slam them in the head and they are healed nonsense, they believe there are dinos on the loose in Africa and pay some charlatan to go look for them. There's a seeker born every day and a crackpot ready to fleece them.

Cliff :lol:. I can see it now. Own your own (fake) piece of dinosaur poop for 3 easy payments of $29.95, payable to the religious fuitbar of your choice.

Order in the next 10 minutes, and we'll throw in an extra tray of poop absolutely FREE!!!

Tyr, I have actually seen animal poop being on sale (petrified poop, of course). So it wouldn’t surprise me if petrified dinosaur poop is really on sale somewhere.

How about a minotaur and a griffin for three unicorns. Straight up, non-refundable
