June 10, 2007, 5:45 p.m.While i believe in creation vs. evolution, i have sense enough to know that there has been more than 6000 yrs of earth existance.
I agree too with one of the commentors on the article, Adam and Eve were WHITE?! Not a chance, and very ignorant of the people who designed this museum piece.

June 10, 2007, 5:51 p.m."I am that I am".>>>>
'I am what I am, and that's all that I am...I'm popeye the sailor man'...
That has been going through my head since I read that line. Here's the nut who got this going; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Ham
Good news! He's not an American. We already look stupid enough in the world.

June 10, 2007, 5:57 p.m."to discover a museum full of shocking idiocy and unintentional humor..."
Sounds like a fun afternoon and daresay an altered state of consciousness would heighten the absurd.
Ken portrayed by a barbie doll?? Am I remembering it right - it was a LONG piece, perhaps a bit too long..
But definitely worth a skim!

June 10, 2007, 5:58 p.m.Isn't freedom great!
Museums attack tourists.
Tourism is what is keeping most of Kentucky, lower Indiana & Ohio generating revenue.
I was disappointed with my dads hometown in Indiana, it has become a tourist town, it is definitely not the town I remembered from years ago.
thanks Neophile & fedquip for this article.

June 10, 2007, 6:39 p.m.Sometimes fiction is more fascinating than facts!
This "Museum" sounds like a tourist trap much in the same vein as the rest of loony joints spread across the continent, except that this will have a GUARANTEED traffic by the "Born Again"s and the "Porn Again"s!
Thanks for this [post, fedequip, and Neophile for the heads up!

June 10, 2007, 7:14 p.m.Honest question: what is the story behind the picture of adam and eve and the inside-out animals on the big stone?

June 10, 2007, 7:30 p.m.This is the exact reason that I am not religious. I do respect other people's spiritual beliefs, but to think that that crap is the truth in the face of so much scientific data is a f***ing insult to gray matter! I could saw my brain in half and still not be stupid enough to believe that!
I spoke to a reverend a few years ago about the story of creation, and even he said that it was not literal, it represented the seven stages of creation that everything on the planet goes through. I didn't completely agree with everything he said, but it made much more sense.
To be honest I did find it quite funny, I also died a little inside too.

June 10, 2007, 7:42 p.m.If you get a chance, watch a movie called "Inherit the Wind"
it's about an actual trial in 1925 where a teacher is charged with teaching evolution. The arguments the lawyers make are quite interesting, I'm surprised it hasn't been band for blasphemy.

June 10, 2007, 8:27 p.m.At first it was amusing, then, depressing. Why should Christianity completely preclude a belief in science? Is it absolutely necessary to believe Adam rode a freaking lion and Eve had a vegetarian velociraptor as a pet in order to believe in God? Maaaan.

June 10, 2007, 9:18 p.m.Once you remove logic and reason, anything is possible!
The fundamentalist Christian preachers need a large lot to feed on, so it becomes necessary to remove logic and reason from religion so that anything and everything they say becomes Gospel, no questions asked!
Strange thing is these same non-believers in science are not ashamed to drive cars, fly on airplanes, watch television and eat processed and packaged food, all made possible by science!
And from what I gathered on another thread, 50% of the born-again men and 20% of the women watch porn on Internet, also made possible by science!
Isn't this line of belief fun?

June 10, 2007, 10:50 p.m.I'm a limey, we're supposed to be one of the 12 lost tribes or something, I once found the phone number for the trilateral commission on the back of a baseball card and my wife is already Jewish! I AM THE MINISTER OF SILLY WALKS!

June 10, 2007, 10:57 p.m.Among the cluster of heathen newspaper cut-outs I noticed something interesting:
'Headline: Marijuana heals the sick.'
Tsk. Tsk. When will the world's sinners learn that illness is meant to be accepted, not cured...

June 10, 2007, 11:21 p.m."Reason" says the evolution began 14 billion years ago. God's Word says creation began 6,000.years ago.
The book the Bible is not the word of God, but people claim that it is the word of God and close and careful examination shows it is not, still you find remnants of words of God in the book, Bible also says "if you want to be forgiven come let us reason together". There are people who need no reason to believe, they will believe anything. But unfortunately most of the people believe that Atheism and agnosticism could replace the belief in God but it will not satisfy the emotional and spiritual needs of man, yearning for finding the creator of the heavens and the earth and in between, is in built in human system like thirst and hunger. Actually Quran says God created every living thing from water; science has proved more than 75% of human body consists water. I think with advanced and modern science the theory of evolution has no place in science, Continues

June 10, 2007, 11:17 p.m.Don't take that Triceratops horn out of your a$$, It's all part of the divine plan! (Pink Flamingos "Divine"! ahh where's John Waters when you need him?)
This Museum is a monument to stupefied nitwits who believe this garbage of which there sadly is an unlimited supply.

June 10, 2007, 11:34 p.m.This is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. I want to know how these people think we are the fruit of the incest of one white family when we are all clearly different races and ethnicities? Do they have an "explanation"? Or do they just say "Shut up kid and ride your Jesus horse"?
"Don't think, just believe". That pretty much says it all.

June 11, 2007, 1:29 a.m.So were Adam & Eve rednecks? Or what? Was God? How about those Jesus Horseys? Did they bet on them? And if so who were the jockeys? There were fossil fuel burning cars there too because Jehovah drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden in a Fury. So God's a Plymouth man right? I dunno... it says "David's Triumph was heard throughout the land". It seems David at least preferred those oil leaking British cars. I hope he didn't run over any dinosaurs.
