The Creation Museum
I have the "privilege" of living within very easy driving distance of the Creation Museum in northern Kentucky. For a state that struggles with the perception of being populated by ignorant hillbillies, this is a cruel blow.
In what can only be described as a "Monumental Ttribute to Willful Ignorance", they actually have a display that shows a dinosaur (I beileve it is a Triceratops) with a saddle on its back. This is to demonstrate to the faithful that the fossilized remains of dinosaurs were actually contemporaneous with the existence of homo sapiens. I would have said something to the effect that "you can't make this stuff up", but apparently, you can. I don't know how to imbed a photo, but if someone can tell me how, I'll share the picture with you. I'm thinking of picking up the "Family Lifetime Pass" for a mere $1,000 for the first member, and $500 for each additional family member. What a gift for the grandkids!!!

I personally would love to see the Creation Museum. (I'm a sucker for kitsch - have seen both the Bowling Hall of Fame in St. Louis, and the Museum of Bad Art in Boston.) But I am ambivalent about my dollars as support for this. The museum itself would be fine with me - people can believe what they want - except for the fact that they keep trying to get this taught in schools. And if proceeds from the museum in any way help fund that movement, I don't want to contribute to that.

I think that the "Creation Museum" nearest my edge of the woods recently went out of business.

As for the other one going out of business, I guess Creationism isn't the bustling business it once promised to be.

This one was quite a different animal. It specialized in fossils and not animatronics.

I must admit that when the existence of this edifice was first disclosed on this forum, I thought it was a hoax.
So TVOR, since you were there: are you certain cave men didn't ride dinosaurs? I mean getting an eye witness account is so much better than the fossil record.
