Creationist Museum

Hey, they do get some things right!

No it's not natural selction, it's the Creation Orchard folks. All animals descended from different "kinds" of animals. This would probably explain the necessity of having to put a penquin in the Garden of Eden and why Wooly Mammoths descended from there own bilogical classification, the "kinds".

The old Floating Forest era!

[Roll the Bones 74]

So fossils are real if they are less than 4350 years old then?

[Roll the Bones 74]

So snow falls only near the ocean so quit your beotching Wisconsin!

And we had veggie eating Puma's and Penguins in the Garden of Eden.

Diffferent strokes for different folks. I mean who needs that pesky reason anyway!

[Roll the Bones 74]

Evolution of the continents? That came before the evolution of the Trilobytes?

[Roll the Bones 74]

Blasphemy!

The Creation Orchard is a great name for a band or a fantasy team. something.This "museum" brings unintentional comedy to new levels.

It is pure gold. I can't tell you how many times I giggle inside whenever I think of the penguin.

By Mark Hansel • mhansel@nky.com • May 30, 2010 PETERSBURG - Friday marked the third anniversary of the opening of the Creation Museum and despite its skeptics, it continues to be a successful draw.When the doors opened in May of 2007, it was estimated that about 250,000 people would visit each year, but in less than three years, it already has surpassed the 1 million mark."Some museums have inflated numbers because a lot of public school children visit," Mark Looy, co-founder of the museum, said. "For obvious reasons, we don't get many of them."The museum's controversial exhibits represent the views of the Answers in Genesis is the Apologetics Ministry, which includes the belief that the earth is only about 7,000 years old and that dinosaurs were among the creatures on Noah's ark. The ministry is focused on the absolute truth and authority of the Bible.While some have scoffed at the belief system represented in the museum exhibits, visitors are fascinated by them."I don't think there is anything like this anywhere else in the world," John Dueckmann, a 27-year-old intern from Stuttgart, Germany now studying in Abington, Va., said. "Whether you like the message or hate it, it is a very powerful message."Dueckmann was accompanied on Friday by his parents, Hans and Anna, and his sister, Jutta, 10, who are visiting the United States for the first time."I came here a few moths ago and when I found out they were coming, I knew I had to bring them here," Dueckmann said.The family also plans to visit Niagara Falls.Looy said the museum routinely get visitors from across the country and around the world. Most international visitors, like the Dueckmanns, do not come just to visit the museum, but include it in their travel itinerary."When we opened, we had 4,000 people here in one day and there were cars with license plates from 38 states in the parking lot," Looy said.Ken Ham, co-founder and chief executive of Answers in Genesis, said the Greater Cincinnati area was chosen as the museum site primarily because of its geographic location."This area is within one day's drive of two-thirds of the country's population," Ham said. "There is also a first-class airport very close by."An independent consulting firm has determined that the economic impact to the area is $65 million per year and the museum is directly or indirectly responsible for bringing 2,100 jobs to the area, according to Ham.Museum officials hope to maintain success at the turnstiles by adding new exhibits and attractions.Future attractions include the addition of a multi-purpose room, an expansion of the 78-seat planetarium and additional phases to the Knee-high museum, a new exhibit aimed at younger visitors that was unveiled on Friday."Our plan was to look at the museum as a whole and incorporate this so that it doesn't look like it's been added on," Ham said of the Knee-high museum.Part of the new exhibit is a Voyage of the Ark Room that includes an animatronic Noah that sits at a desk and answers questions about the flood.The exhibit, which is housed in a space that is approximately nine feet by 12 feet, cost about $100,000, according to Looy."We cannot be static," Looy said. "We are going to continue to add things to generate interest."

So the museum is going to evolve?

Women.

Women.

Good comeback, but for accuracy's sake there happen to be six in the pic, five men, and some indeterminate creature in the left background.Strangely enough, I was cleaning and packing and came across something I jotted down years ago on a scrap of paper ... "creationism, the only science where GEDs outnumber PhDs."Maybe God led me to it.

You guys got there first and sanitized the place?I always love how easily you guys just place into the record 'truths' with no basis other than 100% pure speculation:

“The evidence suggests that after the flood, dinosaur scavengers trampled and smashed bones in their attempt to feast on the rotting remains.”

“Because of their size and the scale of the flooding, dinosaurs could not escape the coastal floodwaters and would have been killed in large numbers.

So the flood was so big none of the big dinosaurs escaped? Except for the ones that later crushed the skeletons of animals the size of rhinos with their feet?Of course what must have happened is the giant flood killed all the animals in this area, but other animals came by later and stepped on them, THEN the mud covered and protected the bones from decomposing because otherwise we would not ever have found them preserved.Oh well...given enough time...A big flood huh? Seems I've heard about a big flood before.

I don't get what is funny about that?Or do you not understand what the Bible says as it's main message?
