Has anyone else read the article about the team that is trying to catch "Satan" burying fossils?
In the latest edition of Recent Archeology is a story about Dr. Julian Spade and his team of archeologists. Because of persisitant claims by religious fundamentalists that Satan is burying dinosaur fossils in an attempt to discredit the bible, Dr. Spade and his team have agreed to set up an elaborate system of cameras, night vision equipment, and audio recording devices in an attempt to catch Satan in the act. This is taking place at the Pre-Victorian Fossil Beds in Utah. "We have 35 well hidden, remote controlled cameras set up, some are night vision cameras, and a command center manned 24 hours a day", said Dr. Spade. "We feel certain that if Satan is really responsible for burying dinosaur bones, that we can get him on film. The team is very excited about this project, and with the funding we have recieved from religious organizations all over the country, all the equipment is paid for, and we will be able to keep the project going for at least a year."

The fundies are scrambling to check this all out on the Net.
Ha ha, I’m the Ginger Bread Man! Catch me if you can!"
Wow… just goes to show that you sure don’t need any common sense to get a PhD!

In the shopping mall of the mind, he’s in the toy department
Wow.
If this true, bigger wow…
Just…Wow.
Doh!
Don’t they realize Satan probably pushes the fossils up from Hell and never has to go above ground to plant the fossils? Geez.
Oh, he’s just GOT to be an atheist! This really is good news. Maybe after he films NOTHING the argument will cease? Probably not.
Also, got a link or a source of some kind?
what a waste of good equipment and a phd

It is people like this that convince everyone that all Christians are complete nutters – which I don’t appreciate…
Excuse me, I’m going to go dig in my backyard now and see if Satan left new fossils, then try to convince myself that I am merely hallucinating…
Peace!
So Satan puts the fossils in the earth. I’ve heard it all now. That’s got to be the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. Excuse me while I laugh.
I’m just curious what all those fundies are going to say when they don’t get Satan on camera.
