This hurts (2): Lancashire creationist theme park.

America is a nation for which I have a great deal of admiration. The small percentage of them who don’t believe that the earth is 4,500 years old and that they’re been abducted and rectally probed by mango-headed aliens, that is. Which is most of them.

So it hurts like whips when a UK Sunday newspaper The Observer runs a story which causes the more rational of our transatlantic bretheren to gloat thus: Ha-haa! England.

We - the English - found the first dinosaur skelington (Gideon Mantell, Iguanodon), a Lancastrian (Richard Owen) coined the term dinosaur and (for which you should carol atheist hallelujias) we gave yer Charles Darwin who in turn gave the world evolution - at 15 shillings a go, he even sent a couple of copies free to America in 1859 and you still mostly don’t get it! - grandeur in this view of life. So, USA, shovel your own prodigious Everest of steaming creationist shit out of the door before your call us on a small, damp squeezed out theist fart.
