Out of the mouths of babes

Pop quiz: How does this person believe that the universe began?

"It's just dumb to believe that everything came from one kind of bang or fish or something," said Katy Carlson, 13, one of the youngest on the dig.

Wrong! She's actually a supporter of creationism, believe it or not.

Another fun quote from a decidedly not-dumb creationist digging for the bones of "big lizards" in the hills of South Dakota:

Evolution is "the dumbest and most dangerous idea in the history of humanity", said Kent Hovind, a vocal enthusiast for the cause who also runs the theme park in Florida. Explaining his Creationist creed, he said: "We think dinosaurs were part of the normal Creation and were just big lizards. Noah took some of them on the Ark, probably babies, when the floods came.

I don't know why the expend even that much effort to explain dinosaurs away. Why not just call 'em dead angel bones and get on with their lives?

From Catch.
