Cdesign proponentism

From The Inoculated Mind:

"Intelligent Design was demonstrated to be merely a re-labeling of creationism in 1987 after a Supreme Court case had ruled that “creation science” in the classroom was unconstitutional. In that year, every instance of the words “creationist” and “creationism” in their high-school ID textbook were replaced with “Intelligent Design” and “Design Proponent.” The definitions were exactly the same. In one instance, “creationists” was improperly edited to become “cdesign proponentsists” - a breathtaking transitional fossil between creationism and intelligent design."

Thus:

“I am the very model of a C-Design Proponentsist” by Amadan

I am the very model of a c-design-proponentsist
The diametric opposite of all that is materialist
My engineering cert allows me call myself a scientist -
We won’t discuss those classes in Biology I might have missed

I work in a diploma mill I call a university
And there I struggle long and hard to teach the controversity
I welcome all opinions notwithstanding their diversity
I just reject the fact-based ones as atheist perversity

He just rejects the fact-based ones as atheist perversity
He just rejects the fact-based ones as atheist perversity
He just rejects the fact-based ones as goddam pervertersity

My publication record is quite pre-dispen-sensationalist
I regularly top the polls of books that are salvationist
Applause in the reviews keeps copies flying off the bookstore shelf
I couldn’t be more pleased if I had written the reviews myself

He couldn’t be more pleased if he had written the reviews himself
He wishes Amazon would keep his IP numbers to itself

When I go up for tenure I’ll submit my publication list
And if they ask for science then I’ll scream “Discriminationist!”
Religion has no place within the quest for natural knowledge
At least until I am the one who’s put in charge of [the] college

I’m waiting for the day in court when Darwin meets his Waterloo
[And] though I might find that testifying isn’t what I ought to do
I know that what’s in Genesis is strictly and completely true
It’s just a shame it’s stuck in a six-thousand-year-long peer review

He knows that what’s in Genesis is strictly and completely true
He knows that what’s in Genesis is strictly and completely true
He wishes that the IRS would let him see his research through

I claim that Dover came about because the judge was activist
I dazzle congregations with my jargon that’s distractivist
I never answer awkward questions even if you do insist
I really am the model of a c-design-proponentsist

He never answers awkward questions even if you do insist
He really is the model of a c-design-proponentsist!

This makes me happy.
