fun but wont work

I recall reading in Discover magazine that people's brains get hard-wired over time. That's why if you have strong political views, they cannot be changed and you will always view everything within the framework of your preconceived views.

Also thats why old people are more stubborn.

NOw Chick has a great rep among those fundies. Parody him? Oh no! So the people who need educating are the ones who will switch off and tune out the minute they hear about the parody.

What's the use of educating people who already know?
 
anyway, great tract. I learned about Kent Hovind and his theories for the first time. I wonder how many more 'PHDs' the diploma mill has produced.

Have read that there are 1.1 million phds in the USA. I'm suspicious of that figure.
 
It's not hardcore fundies who are the primary target audience.

It's people who don't know how to answer the anti-evolution arguments point by point.

As you see.

Hardcore fundies aren't going to be convinced by anything. People who are on the fence, though, might be. Then again, associating with Chick tracts might mean you'll get some crazy on you.

If I may rephrase the question to the more general, "Why bother parodying a Chick tract?" I'd answer, "Because it's fun!"

Although, parodying a Chick tract is kinda like catching fish in a barrel.

They're so nuts, for a long time I honestly thought the actual Chick tracts were parodies themselves.

That's the problem. They just about make parody obsolete.
