A creationist "science fair"

UPDATE: I've been told in a comment (see below) that the following is a joke. I think I was pwned. Good satire. Check the store. Pretty goofy.

Really? Check out the 2001 Objective: Ministries science fair. They invited a couple of Muslim kids but found them ineligible because of "a number of Biblical inconsistencies." I wonder what method they used to figure out how that made it unscientific?

But the real winner is this!

1st Place: "Using Prayer To Microevolve Latent Antibiotic Resistance In Bacteria"

Eileen Hyde and Lynda Morgan (grades 10 & 11) did a project showing how the power of prayer can unlock the latent genes in bacteria, allowing them to microevolve antibiotic resistance. Escherichia coli bacteria cultured in agar filled petri dishes were subjected to the antibiotics tetracycline and chlorotetracycline. The bacteria cultures were divided into two groups, one group (A) received prayer while the other (B) didn't. The prayer was as follows: "Dear Lord, please allow the bacteria in Group A to unlock the antibiotic-resistant genes that You saw fit to give them at the time of Creation. Amen." The process was repeated for five generations, with the prayer being given at the start of each generation. In the end, Group A was significantly more resistant than Group B to both antibiotics.

Prayer can unlock the latent genes in bacteria. That's brilliant. Can we pray for malaria to microevolve itself into something a little more congenial please? Thanks.
