Ray Mummert: Intelligently Designed.
Apparently evolution is selecting for humans born with their feet in their mouths. Here's Ray Mummert, of Dover, Pennsylvania, describing why Creationism is so controversial:
"We've been attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of the culture."
Now that is a problem, Ray. There's always been a pretty strong undercurrent of anti-intellectualism in American culture. And as Neal Stephenson points out, intellectuals turned the twentieth century into an abbatoir. But geez, "intelligent" and "educated" as pejoratives? That's a little much, no?
Here's the story. H/T Wonkette.
