Creationist humor

I posted a little while back about Ben Stein and his new creationist movie "Expelled."  I had been wondering why I hadn't heard anything about it except in the directed ads on the gmail site.  Turns out that it is being exclusively marketed via mega-churches and the creationist market.  As a matter of fact, it is being kept away from the general public, and _expressly_ kept away from the scientists who were interviewed for the movie (and had their interviews subsequently mangled to make them look stupid). 

Behold an absolutely brilliant example:

It's not long, and it's funny, and extremely ironic.  Read it.

Someone posted that to an LJ community I am on. I was reading thinking "dude, why does this guy think it was so funny to get kicked out of a movie?!"

It seemed boring and I nearly didn't read all the way to the end.

I am glad I did.
