  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Anyone signing this waiver is a terrible parent.

If you read the article... the waiver doesn't directly mention his sex offender status. And as far as indirect, super vague. No one would guess from the waiver that he was a sex offender.

He "fed his flesh" and "poured into the young men around him"

Can't get any more biblical than that. Really feel like they might've asked "Why do I need to sign this"

Down there, probably totally normal to boast some person's religous cred.

That said, as a parent, I don't read in full wvery one of the upsurd number of things I have to sign for my kids. Theynprobably thought it was just another standard consent to play forms. I have little doubt that is what it was made to look like.
