What's Wrong with Texas?

http://scienceblogs.com/dispatches/2010/03/the_next_governor_of_texas.php

Texas, everywhere you turn you find a crazy fundamentalist:

“A jail guard in Texas has been fired from his position after saying a whole lot of quite obnoxious things to his fellow officers. And Stephen Johnson has some seriously crazy opinions:

In October, he interrupted a private conversation among jail staff and "interjected his own opinions," telling them all gays should be annihilated, sheriff's reports show. He also said that whites were the superior race and that he supported slavery, reports show.

Johnson said the Bible supported his opinions, reports show.

He showed a co-worker an ancestry binder that he said proved his family once owned several slaves, reports said. Johnson refused to leave after co-workers told him they were offended by his comments, according to reports.

It gets worse:

"I believe that all dinosaurs were born of Satanic angel who has sex with woman and the animal kingdom that created ungodly reptilian creatures none of these were on the Ark," Johnson said.

Johnson also said that he didn't believe in homosexuality and "that they should be put to death," according to his statement. But he said his beliefs don't lead him to treat gays differently.

I think we've found the poster child for the new Texas social studies standards.”
“Satanic angel who has sex with woman.” If you need proof that fundamentalists suffer from some sort of mental disorder, here it is.
