From the page: " ... recent reactions from all over to the Creation Museum ... compile[d] down into a ... short and (I hope) representative extract."

- From the page: "The museum, a 60,000-square-foot menace to 21st century scientific advancement, is the handiwork of Answers in Genesis, a leader in the "young Earth" movement. Young Earthers believe the world is about 6,000 years old, as opposed to the 4.5 billion years estimated by the world's credible scientific community. This would be risible if anti-evolution forces were confined to a lunatic fringe, but they are not. Witness the recent revelation that three of the Republican candidates for president do not believe in evolution. Three men seeking to lead the last superpower on Earth reject the scientific consensus on cosmology, thermonuclear dynamics, geology and biology, believing instead that Bamm-Bamm and Dino played together."

I weep for the children that will fall prey to this deceit. It is criminal and dangerous.
Consider this: for the cost of spreading this idiocy/disease, at least 450 "Habitat For Humanity" homes could be built here in Pensacola. Considering Habitat's Christian base, imagine the ability to spread Jesus word that that publicity could inspire rather than this absurdity.
Once again I point out that for me it is not Christianity that I oppose, it is this sort of disease, false and preying on the weak of mind and spirit -- more often than not -- for profit.
A recent build with me in the background. :)
Habitat for Humanity!

- Man's genius of self-delusion is without bounds. If there's one thing we as humans excel at it is this.

- ...And there are children in the ghettos of Harlem and South Central Los Angeles who can't read or write, don't have decent clothes to wear or any nutritious food (if any food at all). This isn't funny, this is a repugnant (yet true) statement of the Christian mentality.

- THE CREATION MUSEUM OPENS TODAY $27 million spent in an attempt to keep God small enough to control. $27 million spent to entertain those who have no mental capacity for reading Genesis poetically, metaphorically, or allegorically. $27 million spent by those who believe Man is at the top-of-the-heap, placed there by God to continue to use Mother Earth like a whore- however he damn well pleases. They're losing the scientific battle over "small-God, young earth creationism" so they've hired Disney animatronics experts to sell their snake-oil. I can just imagine Jesus shaking in giddy anticipation over the wet blanket of ignorance about to be tossed over the minds of children who will be hauled to Kentucky this summer by parents digging in their heels against godless modernism.

- I don't know about you, but I'm VERY excited about this museum. If it wasn't so far away, I would so be there on opening day.

- Lovely. A bunch of Young Earth Creationists raised $25 million to open a pseudo-scientific museum hell-bent (pun intended) on proving the Bible's account of creation true. This is COMPLETELY disgusting to me. People are entitled to their own beliefs (even really stupid ones)... but Christians should be thinking about this: Jesus wouldn't bother with stuff like young earth evolution. He'd have more important things to do, like healing the sick and helping people in need. Just think of how far $25 million could have gone towards THAT.
