Thinning the Job Market

As an atheist, people assume that I get upset when school districts want to have creationism taught in schools. I usually don't because a) those dumbass laws usually get repealed after those school board members who vote for them get voted out and b) the more kids who grow up learning that shit as fact ,the fewer competitors for good jobs when the HB when he applies for college. But, this takes the cake.

Now, to say that dinosaurs roamed the earth with people goes against pretty much everything that evolutionary biologists know. That's OK, there was a time when the greatest scientific minds thought the world was flat. But, I need a little proof. And note that some people don't think that dinosaurs even existed since they aren't mentioned in the bible. But, the museum's website states that they've got a good story to tell, even without scientific evidence. Basically, they give it away with their marketing statement: Prepare to Believe. Personally, I think we're better off preparing to Know.
