I liked the last paragraph:

But the book doesn't only promote stupidity, it demands it. In every way except its use of the actual term, this is a creationist book, but its authors are expecting that legislators and the courts will be too stupid to notice that, or to remember that the Supreme Court has declared teaching creationism an unconstitutional imposition of religion. As laws similar to Louisiana's resurface in other states next year, we can only hope that legislators choose not to live down to the low expectations of EE's authors.

That’s a great article. It not only explains why evolution is such an overwhelmingly accepted theory, it demolishes the standard counterarguments we see here over and over. It should be required reading.
