Texan for Pseudoscientific Douchebaggery
I would like to take a moment to call your attention to the target rich environment that is Texans for Better Science Education. Do not be fooled. It should be called Texan for Pseudoscientific Douchebaggery. The aptly named Texas Citizens for Science tells us The True Story.Turns out the organization is a one man show, paid for and run by a pseudoscientific douchebag named Mark Ramsey, who advocates teaching the "strengths and weaknesses" of evolution. And from the looks of it, his website is anything but intelligently designed. He must be in desperate need of volunteers. Apply now!
See for yourself the franticly posted news updates in multi-colored, randomly emphasized text on the front page. Look hard enough and there you will find more of the same old canards and oft repeated lies, damned lies, and quote mines. Dare to subscribe and you will receive the occasional poorly formatted newsletter. You might also notice not one, but two banners proudly displayed on either side of every page, shamelessly promoting the upcoming movie Expelled, sure to be a big hit with pseudoscientific douchebags the world over.
Recently asked why he behaves like such a pseudoscientific douchebag, the one and only Mark Ramsey had this to say:
"Emphatically, we are not trying to 'take evolution out of the schools.' All good educators know that when students are taught both sides of an issue such as biologic evolution, they understand each side better. What are the Darwinists afraid of?"
Spoken like a true pseudoscientific douchebag.
But wait, there's more! Make sure you read his collection of historic quotes. Scroll all the way down and be the first to submit one of your favorites! Do it for the lulz.
