A Field Trip To the Creation Museum

Lillith writes "The anti-evolution Creation Museum opened last weekend and Ars took a field trip there and took lots of pictures. 'There were posters explaining just how coal could be formed in a few weeks as opposed to over millions of years, and how rapidly the biblical flood would cover the earth, drowning all but a handful of living creatures. The flood plays a big part in the museum's attempt to explain away what we see as millions of years of natural processes. There was also an explanation as to why, with only one progenitor family, it wasn't considered incest for Adam and Eve's children to marry each other.' (Myself, I liked the picture of the velociraptor grazing peacefully next to Eve, who is wearing some kind of dirndl, in the Garden of Eden.)" The reporter posted more photos from the museum on Flickr.

    And can someone explain what is bad with a naked body? Typical religious bullshit. Nudity is not bad, we are all naked. Violence is bad, nudity is good.

    Any population that kills its babies is going to be out bred by a population that holds killing of babies in low regard. From an eugenics standpoint, voluntary abortions are counter-productive. In other words: you're going to have to enforce something at some point, or resign yourself to cultural oblivion.
