"Creation Science Fair"

Notable excerpts:

Cassidy Turnbull (grade 5) [...] tried to feed her uncle bananas, but he declined to eat them.  Cassidy has conclusively shown that her uncle is no monkey.

"Pokemon Prove Evolutionism Is False" - Paul Sanborn (grade 4)

Patricia Lewis (grade 8) did an experiment to see if life can evolve from non-life.  Patricia placed all the non-living ingredients of life - carbon (a charcoal briquet), purified water, and assorted minerals (a multi-vitamin) - into a sealed glass jar.  The jar was left undisturbed, being exposed only to sunlight, for three weeks.  [...]  No life evolved.  This shows that life cannot come from non-life through natural processes.

"Rocks Can't Evolve, Where Did They Come From Mr. Darwin?" - Anna Reed (grade 6)

Jonathan Goode (grade 7) applied findings from many fields of science to support his conclusion that God designed women for homemaking [....]

Barefoot and pregnant, huh, Jonathan?  Among Jonathan's carefully-derived Creation-scientific conclusions: the observed fact that wages are lower for women worker than for "normal" workers (what, Jonathan, you're saying women are abnormal?) proves that women are incapable of working as well as men and therefore deserve lower pay.  And then there's the Noah's ark proof of concept that should result in a prosecution for animal cruelty.

I'm almost, but not quite, speechless.  We expect people taught this way to be able to function in a modern technological society?!?  The Dark Ages are alive and well in rural America.

Update:

General consensus seems to be running that this page is actually a hoax.
