Would you go to a creation museum?

[cynatnite]

How would you react if you did go?

Maybe Kirk Cameron will be there.

[Rabrrrrrr]

1. Only to laugh my ass off and hang my head in disbelief that modern age people can be so fucking dumb

[ChairmanAgnostic]

6. how dare you read my mind?

shame on you!

[babylonsister]

2. I read 'cremation museum' at first and was wondering,

what's the point? :rofl: And no, not interested.

[pingzing58]

13. Wasn't it announced that it was closing?

[frogcycle]

3. HAHAHAHA

Hey, I went to the Alien Museum in Roswell, New Mexico! Even bought a ball cap with a picture of an Alien holding a golf club and the caption "The missing links"

But I don't think I'd go to a "creation" museum. I think it would be too creepy. Those people are scarier than the believers in aliens.

But I answered maybe. If I were in a really crazy mood and thought I could get out without being attacked for laughing...

[Ganja Ninja]

4. Maybe if I had to use the bathroom but I wouldn't stay for the show.

:hurts:

[xchrom]

5. with the right friends and for a laugh. nt

[DrDan]

7. sure . . . why not

it is facinating to see what things adults can buy into . . .

not unlike the 19-percenters who continue to believe junior is doing a good job. . . .

[leftofcool]

8. Sure, I love a good laugh

[Mabus]

9. We were wanting to get a busload of friends and go there

We thought it would be a hoot.

I have no idea how I would react if I went. I suppose it would depend on how absurd it is. But I do think that I would probably have a hard time not laughing out loud at some point.

[sazemisery]

10. My stepdaughter went there to do some research for her next book

She is writing a post nuclear book and it addresses religious zealots, etc. I can't say anymore than that about it. She was totally mortified by the silly ways they try to explain dinosaurs, Noah's ark, etc.

[CanonRay]

11. I'd never put a dime in their pockets.

[trotsky]

12. Bingo.

I'd love to go and laugh, but doing so would contribute to the cause. Better to let them try and survive on scratch from the faithful.

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

14. Hey, lots of people go to Disney World, but that don't make the 7 Dwarfs real. (nt)

[ChairmanAgnostic]

18. say what? They aren't? Oh no. all those dreams, memories, songs. sniff.

[RaleighNCDUer]

15. Yes,

wearing a t-shirt from the natural science museum I work at, and laughing, laughing, laughing...


I actually heard, one day, a visitor telling her @8 yr old child, as they walked through our dinosaur diarama, "You know, none of this is true."

[saltpoint]

16. Nah. It's a long drive to Kentucky, or wherever that thing is, and

besides, we're busy with our Anna Nicole memorial scrapbook.

[edhopper]

17. Not if I have to pay

giving them money would only fund these Neanderthals.

[Turbineguy]

19. Only if

I had to go to the bathroom really bad and couldn't hold it any longer.

[knitter4democracy]

20. Maybe, if only as a way to explain to our kids what's wrong about it.

I'd worry that it might make some sort of sense to our kids, though, considering they're so young (7 and 5). I'm glad their teachers are teaching evolution, though, so maybe I'd take them, if only to use it as a way to explain how very wrong it all is.

[wtmusic]

21. No, too creepy. nt

[TreasonousBastard]

22. Yeah, if I could get in for less than...

the 20 bucks they're charging. There's a job fair there next week that could mean free admission and a chance to do a major mindfuck on them with the application and resume.

Here's a guy who went:

[RebelOne]

23. Oh yeah, for a good laugh.

That's why I visit the Rapture Ready forum. I have to laugh at those disillusioned Jesus freaks.

[smoogatz]

24. Absolutely.

I love crazy cultural artifacts of all kinds. Mass delusion is particularly fascinating.
