Museum of Creation opens in Kentucky
More proof of Red state retardation

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2005/01/02/weden02.xml&sSheet=/news/2005/01/02/ixworld.html

------------------

More controversial exhibits deal with diseases and famine, which are portrayed not as random disasters, but as the result of mankind's sin. Mr Ham's Answers in Genesis movement blames the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School in Colorado, in which two teenagers killed 12 classmates and a teacher before killing themselves, on evolutionist teaching, claiming that the perpetrators believed in Darwin's survival of the fittest.

Other exhibits in the museum will blame homosexuals for Aids. In a "Bible Authority Room" visitors are warned: "Everyone who rejects his history – including six-day creation and Noah's flood – is `wilfully' ignorant.''

Elsewhere, animated figures will be used to recreate the Garden of Eden, while in another room, visitors will see a tyrannosaurus rex pursuing Adam and Eve after their fall from grace. "That's the real terror that Adam's sin unleashed," visitors will be warned.

10. Yep, they're serious.
F*** science, f*** knowledge. Dogma is all you'll ever need to get by. And if anyone says or acts differently? Stone them to death!

3. Columbine to Blame
These alleged humans also claim teaching evolution led to the 1999 school shootings, because Klebold and Harris believed in "survival of the fittest."

Oh yeah -- the museum comes complete with a 3-D crucifixion of Jesus. Is there anything the creationists won't do?

4. You've got to be kidding me ...
they may not believe in evolution ... but shit like this certainly proves that DE-evolution is thriving! :eyes:


Note to the museum's founders:
Everyone who rejects the FACTS of history is "wilfully" ignorant.

23. I heard they just passed a new law in Kentucky.
It says that even after a husband and wife get a divorce, they can still be cousins.

(used to live there, three years in Louisville, three years in Middlesboro. Can't say I miss it)

6. I wonder if they will advertise the museum on sex shop bill boards?
I recently drove through Kentucky -- and was amazed at the number of sex shop bill board advertising on the Interstate. The billboards down in the South are huge very huge. This is the bible belt?

7. It's embarrassing that this article was from a British news organization.
Europe must laugh their asses off at us when they read this kind of stuff. Makes us look more primitive than the most primitive tribe in the African bush. I'm surprised this "museum" doesn't have an exhibit that shows the earth is flat. But southern Christo-Fascists will eat this up, they are so damn ignorant.

16. A Moronic, "Willfully Ignorant" Avoidance of Evolution
The T-Rex chasing Adam and Eve is a frightening avoidance of all of the scientific history of the universe, the earth, and humans. That way, all of pre-human evolution would (faslely) occur before the beginning of human history. Fanatics of many religions, including Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, refute the age of the earth based on literal interpretations of their respective religious texts. Scary.

17. Well, how big would 'the Arch' have to be
to fit every terrestrial creature on the planet? I would assume pretty big. Bigger than your average supertanker I would guess. Oh well.

22. That last line...
About the "evolutionary elite". I guess a 28 year old college student who makes less than $10,000/yr is an elite now eh? :P
