When I went to a (private) Christian school our science book was called Undertstanding God's World and it was pretty wacky. I think I remember it saying dinosaurs and humans lived alongside each other. I also remember being taught plate tectonics was a lie?

I mean... We are still living among dinosaurs. What do you think birds are? Government drones?

I have pet birbs and can confirm:

They are government drones with the heart of either a cat or dog or sometimes both at the same time.

Well, of course they are fish, so do we, but they are also dinosaurs.
