I got suckered. Read the usual Discovery Institute disclaimer at the
bottom of the evolutionnews web page. It is nearly identical to the
real one.

Yeah! Who could believe that an educated person ... a *brain surgeon*,
mind you ... could say something like this:

Materialism is nonsense, because if matter and energy are all
that exist, then truth doesn't exist (it's neither matter nor
energy). If truth doesn't exist, then materialism can't be true.

Oh, wait a minute ... is that the parody?

The links from the page seem to be real so it is anyones guess, but my
take is that wjat you quoted wasn't supposed to be parody. It should
make people do a double take when you can't tell.
