Are you SERIOUS???

ok... there is a lot of ridiculous news pretty much every single day, but when the news pertains to a general populous, that's when I find it very strange.

So, according to Newsweek, 48% of Americans don't believe in evolution... what? REALLY? Most of my friends do... at least I think they do...
I can't help wondering if this is poll is skewed.
Speaking of which, take a look at this link... This guy tries (SERIOUSLY) to disprove evolution with peanut butter. He is silly enough to believe himself.
As a side note, everyone is entitled to have their own opinions... It's the actions that people do because of their beliefs, that I may be opposed to.
48% ... god, that seems really high...
Speaking of which, on another note, take a look at the flying spaghetti monster god... I can't believe some people thought this guy actually believed what he preached... It's an obvious protest to teaching intelligent design in schools. God, some people are really that stupid, that they can pick up sarcasm???
Basically, if you haven't heard yet about this "religion", this guy shows up to school (during the peak of the intelligent design debate) dressed like a pirate. He is sent home, and he declares that he will sue the school because dressing up as a pirate is part of his "religion." Well, his religion consists of a spaghetti monster that created all... If you want to know more about it, just click above... It's pretty funny...

On another note, according to UK news, the latest trend in Japan is moe otaku, which is collecting images of underage girls... sometimes engaged in overtly sexual activities...
Really? That's gross... I mean I know Japan has international cafes where women will call their customers, "master," and the really violent sexual cartoons in which women cartoon characters are cut, stabbed, blown up, etc during sex... but, I can just chock all this other stuff to being weird or really different from my own culture.
I find the latest trend, moe otaku, horrific and appalling. I know that kiddie porn is legal there (which is sick, in my opinion)... but I didn't think it would ever be a trend...
ugh... can someone verify or deny this? Is this really true?

I really think a lot of the general public in America are undereducated.

People also don't realize that "No Child Left Behind" crap is really, well, CRAP.

Did you see the GOP debate tonight? 3 of the candidates raised their hands when Chris Matthews asked who didn't believe in evolution. wtf.
