Q: This must be a joke page right? Is this satire?
A: No it isn't. The CADmins and the ones that genuinely follow this group all believe dinosaurs never existed. If that's too hard to understand for you maybe this group isn't the right group for you.

* Q: Do you guys actually believe the earth is only 6000 years old?
A: Most of us do not believe this. We aren't YECs. If you don't know what a YEC is than maybe this group isn't the right group for you

* Q: We have so much evidence dinosaurs are real, why don't you show me some Jesus bones?
A: No you don't. You'd know that if you looked into it. And Jesus died upon the cross, was buried and resurrected. On Ascension Day he went to heaven. So there are no Jesus bones to show you. If you refuse to accept this than maybe this group isn't the right group for you.🧐

"It is impossible to create a parody of extreme views so obviously exaggerated that it cannot be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of the views being parodied."

I vote for parody because a sincere group would be looking for converts anywhere they could find them and they think we're all just one convincing website away from being converts.

Thinking it would be a sceptical rallying cry against the "Paleo Diet" I am obviously deranged or not deranged enough.

I've been telling earnest young things they can lecture me about the paleo diet when they start to get their protein from termite grubs instead of tame animals being factory farmed.
