intelligent design of dinosaurs
now the flat-earthers are buying dinosaur statues and "converting" them to intelligent design, as reported by the LATimes, and today echoed by boing boing - for instance by selling toy dinosaurs whose labels warn, "Don't swallow it! The fossil record does not support evolution."
it shows how well they understand the absolute lack of rigor of their belief that they would use fossils to prove that earth is only 6,000 years old and dinosaur fossils are not in fact fossils... all in order "to win converts to creationism"!
in addition, a colleague points out that this stupidity is also blasphemous: "[...] 'Taking the Bible as astronomy or physics is blasphemy. They're treating it as an elementary textbook and it's not,' said Francisco J. Ayala, a UC Irvine evolutionary biology professor and ordained Dominican priest." full story
