Yes, let's teach even less science. We obviously know too much.

Someone needs to look up evolution in the dictionary... Oh, they probably don't believe in dictionaries.  And this person had kids. [God] help us all...

I hope it's sarcasm, but it is (apparently) from Knoxville, and I know people from those parts...

I didn't think it was satirical, either, Jojo. Maybe I've just run into too many fundie morons.

It read too much like something off the Onion to me. Of course, I could be very wrong. I hope not.

Guys. The joke is that he wasn't taught evolution and therefore has no clue what it is and can't form a valid argument against it. Satire.

I knew that I shouldn't click on it, but I did it anyway.  Wow.  Just wow.  So his point is...evolution should not be taught in schools because I am a moron?  I'm guessing here, he didn't give me a lot to work with.

Maybe he's still waiting for his copy of Chicken Soup for the Soul:  NASCAR (a real book!) to evolve into On the Origin of Species?  Maybe that will help clear some things up.

FIL is convinced that the worl started going downhill when they stopped prayer in school. When he goes off on his tangents, it's everything I can do to keep my mouth shut. Especially when there isn't any booze to throw in my pie hole to keep it occupied.

I thought satire/sarcasm, too, until I got to the end.  I think it's real. 

The "Knoxville" part clinched it for me.

I think it's Kirk Cameron writing in disguise.
