Well, as a former resident of Kentucky, I can only say this laughable museum
is an effrontery to science and all intelligent people. It reminds me of
the inbred mountain people and their blue babies that are still present in
East Kentucky. No doubt some of those "blue babies" grew up to become
directors of this Creationist Museum. (When very close relatives have a
child, the baby has a blue tint to the skin, hence the term "blue baby")

I like the part where they show two dinosaurs going onto the ark. They
discovered that children were fond of dinosaurs, so they included them in
their "scientific scenario". I want to know who is the ark's ship builder,
it would be impossible to build a ship that could hold all the animals on
the planet, it is so ludicrous, one can not imagine how anyone reasonably
intelligent could give it any serious consideration. It reminded me of Al
Gore's pretty charts and special effects in his horror video, an incontinent
truth..

With admission at $20/person, it is still well below Disneyland, but it is
plain to see the main motive is profit. More people doing "God's work" so
the museum's owners can Prophet. Disneyland, at least, bills itself as
fantasy, the creationist museum is fantasy, but bills itself as science.

There's one of those cretin museums just outside the entrance to
Cretaceous Park near Glen Rose, Texas (Dinosaur Valley State Park). I
remember it being rather expensive ($10 ?). For a dollar or two I would
have gone in.

For fifty of them you can buy the latest book on Plate Tectonics and
have an even better laugh, .. and consider the aspect of mutual
profit there while you're at it..
