Default Creation Museum

http://creationmuseum.org/

Has anyone else seen this?

"Biblical history is the key to understanding dinosaurs. Explore many of these amazing creatures along with fossilized dinosaur eggs, a triceratops skeleton casting, and much more!" - um really? I must have a printing error in my version as I've never seen a reference to dinosaurs in the bible.

"This walk through history is the centerpiece of the Creation Museum and features amazing scientific and biblical answers for the world we live in today. Witness the true time line of the universe unfold through the 7 C’s of History—illuminating God’s redemptive plan throughout history." - OMFG

There are some who argue that Behemoth is a dinosaur of the Apatosaurus/Brachiosaur variety, rather than an imaginary monster.

I see they have camel rides at the petting zoo. Not how I remember petting.

I don't get why they think humans put saddles on dinosaurs and rode around on them.

I love it. I absolutely have to see this place myself. The only problem will be I don't really want to pay money that they can use in distributing this crap.

We had a petting zoo here when I was a gossoon. It had koalas,wombats and kangaroos.

Funny,I don't remember platypus,koalas,kangaroos or wombats in the Bibble either.

Is there another group on the planet more offensively, willfully, pig ignorant than new earth creationists? (serious question)

When the ideists were here, one of my comments was on the way they used stock creationist arguments despite their claim of reason, abandoning only the biblical text. I had not realised until I read the PZ link that the ideists "same facts, different conclusion" canard is also drawn from the same source.

If only I had the logical opportunity to say my respect for them has fallen further but the mathematical properties of zero can not be avoided.

Hey Prudie . . . be proud - very proud . . . The museum was founded and continues to be operated by an Australian, Ken Ham. A quick google will have you quivering with pride.
