Dawkins: "As a sex maniac, I'm pretty hostile to the rival stork theory"

As a followup to the Expelled post from the other week, here's a sign that friendly ole' atheist Richard Dawkins and his webmasters have waaaay too much time on their hands:

In which various respected academics rage over the fact that they have lost credibility for believing the Story Theory of human reproduction (parody of Ben Stein's trailer, of course, with laughably bad editing!).

"Proponents of Stork Theory claim that "Big Sex" has been suppressing their claim that babies are delivered by storks. Furthermore, Stork Theory proponents warn of the serious moral dangers posed by teaching children that sex has a function. They point out that evil dictators such as Hitler, Stalin and Mao all believed in Sex Theory, and they may have even had sex themselves.

There is also a late-breaking new development in the controversy, a new theory called Avian Transportation Theory.

Unlike the original Stork Theory, the modern, sophisticated "Avian Transportation Theory" (ATT) merely points out that there are gaps in the orthodox Sex Theory, and that current sonogram imaging is unreliable. Moreover ATT does not specify that babies are necessarily brought by storks but by "large birds unspecified" (although many individual ATT theorists PRIVATELY believe it is a stork)."

I firmly blame this video for the strangely sexual dreams I had about Richard Dawkins last night. You have been warned.

...Also, why does my sound not work with YouTube anymore? It happened about 4 hours ago - all the YouTube clips pause after 2 seconds and they have no sound, but YouTube isn't muted. All my other music programs seem to be putting out sound just fine...
