What is it with Kentucky? I'm beginning to wonder if there is some kind of plot to increase ignorance in this state.

To be fair, this guy is hitting it out of the park on everything—climate change, gays, evolution, basketball. The list goes on!

Is he actually a scientist - couldn't see that in the article.

After all, is there anything left for him to be a scientist about?

Ahh, from the title. No, he isn't a scientist. He is claiming that scientists are "lying about evolution". Although, that's not a direct quote. That's an extrapolation based on his quote:

Remember, the same people who are lying to you today about global warming have been lying to you for 150 years about evolution. Romans 1​

But I can totally see your confusion. In this case, the click bait title isn't.

Yeah, I see what you mean.

Another case of raising the question, "And these people can get dressed without help?"

That's an interesting translation of Romans 1...

It's not mine, but I would guess he's referencing later in the chapter when god got all pissed off and made everyone lusty.

When challenged about his tweets he stated he is not going to "chicken out" and delete them.

He then later deleted his entire Twitter account instead.

At least he told the truth, unlike those lying, no-good, dirty-rotten, conspiracy-minded, lying-liar scientists! Romans 1

The same people? How old are these guys?

Well you see it's like this.

Scientists just hate God and are out to get Him. This is the only reason they make up stuff like evolution.

85% of scientists, (even in the USA), are atheists, (well at least none religious), but that is just another way of saying they hate God.

You'd have to ask him, since that's his tweet, not mine.

The only way to increase ignorance in Kentucky would be to move it to Oklahoma or Louisiana.
