Yeah, sorry to rain on the parade here, but I think that the colouring book contains a higher level of intellectual endeavour than the rest of the museum. Only in America could 27 million dollars be spent on promoting ignorance. Exactly, a 27 million dollar monument to Intellectual Dishonesty.

Don't you think that mis-quoting someone is intellectual dishonesty of the worst kind? (I'd normally use a stronger expression here, but Ted might get offended). As to 'tearing the Darwinist paradigm down', it 's more like a flea trying to bite an elephant, and failing to get through the skin. Annoying, but ineffectual. ted doesn't get offended until the report box gets loaded with reports of bad posts. t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most biological scientists don't study evolutionary biology. Not to discredit the field of biology. Which many on here seem to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just doesn't work out. Such as what Myco? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll make my opening post at this point . First off, yes, Answers in Genesis DOES have educated staff, including several PHDs. I HAVE been to the Creation Museum, 2 months before it opened (my family was given a special tour because we are long-time supporters of AiG). I HAVE had lunch with Ken Ham, Carl Kerby, and Mark Looy (the three bigshots), and they are very intelligent and know what they are talking about. On staff at the museum, they have a man by the name of Jason Lisle who is the only Christian with a PHD (as far as AiG knows) in astrophysics, as well as other top scientists. Don't discredit their education or their evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts on the creation museum, well, there might be a god but there's no way the earth is 6000 - 1000 years old (that's the figure creationists believe i think). If i go outside i see light from millions of years ago so the universe and the earth were around. Who or how it was created is what i don't know. That's my two cents.....

Couldn't that money have been used to feed the hungry or shelter the homeless? This is kind of a good point although really not one we can dwell on. It's too easy to say "Well you may be serving God this way, but you should be doing it that way". If I give money to my church, others could say it should be going to the hungry instead and vice versa. Every Christian serves however they feel called to. About the museum itself, I would love to see it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts on the creation museum, well, there might be a god but there's no way the earth is 6000 - 1000 years old (that's the figure creationists believe i think).

I believe you mean 6000-10000, and you are correct in that figure as far as creationists believe. I have pondered that very question about the light from stars, and I have asked about it. There are several theories, but this is AiG's answer: http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs/405.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
