I'm very well aware of that most religious people support evolution being taught in school and that the stereotype made by the dude in the video above is just that, a stereotype.
However I've never quite understood why some religious people want away with evolution? They don't even want their own kids to be exposed to evolution. That's pretty extreme IMO.

Why are they against it being taught? Do they feel threatened by it or have I misunderstood something here? :/

Edit:

btw.. I live in Europe so I'm not familiar with all the legislation going on over in America.

Well if evolution was a lie, wouldnt it b natural that those who believe so wouldnt want it to be taught?

Most anti-evolution religious groups see Evolution theory as a direct attack at the existence of God.

Haha, that was pretty funny. I know 99.9% of Christians are in no way like that, but I do know one or two that are, that's what makes it funny lol.

Most christians (or even theists) I know support evolution anyway, I imagine they would have a good laugh over this video too.

While there are people out there like that, I hope for his sake that the guy is just joking.

The most recent "challenge" to "evolution's supremacy" in the education system resulted in the proponents of intelligent design being laughed out of federal court, by a conservative judge no less. It was a major loss for ID proponents.  A six-week trial over the issue yielded “overwhelming evidence” establishing that intelligent design “is a religious view, a mere re-labeling of creationism, and not a scientific theory,” according to the judge.  He is also, according to the article, "a Republican and a churchgoer appointed to the federal bench three years ago."

Texas recently failed to pass a provision that would require other approaches be taught alongside evolution.

Us secular humanists who have infiltrated our way into your schools and brainwashed your children into drinking chai lattes and having metrosexual orgies have almost achieved complete victory. Mwahahahaha!

Here is a link that says more about the ruling if you are curious:
