I think they chose Kentucky becaus thats where most of their customers are. If they placed it in Mass. it would be bankrupt in a year.

I desperately want to go, but I do not want to give them my money. I think it would be hilarious, until I actually thought about what its existence was saying about the state of education in America.

The Creation Museum is a monstrous waste of time and money. There is no scientific controversy, except in the deluded minds of millions of ignorant believers. Creationism makes me weep for the untold lost human potential it engenders and for the countless wasted lives it creates. I will NOT be going there. Sounds like a good reason to avoid Kentucky altogether.

I do not understand why a large, vocal group of people wish to open a museum (usually an educational experience) based on no facts. While I understand that some people in the United States have trouble accepting evolution or even that God could allow evolution to occur, I do not understand where they can depict humans riding on dinosaurs as fact. There is not a war between science and religion as some would like for us to believe. It is my goal to get kicked out of this place though. I mean they are people that believe that God is infallible, but depict him as a failure (how many species have gone extinct now?). Im agnostic, and I dont understand their logic.

To say that it is a moulding of facts would be an understatement. Perhaps they could also have a display on how many different religions there are in the world, and proof that all but one of them are wrong.
It would be laughable if it weren't so serious in its ignorance. I find it incredible that they claim that dinosaurs existed and were taken onto the ark, and then became extinct, when no other animals mentioned in the Bible have become extinct. I find it incredible that The Dodo must have been on the Ark, but managed to get to the island of Madagascar even though it was flightless.
So many questions.
But no real answers.

I just saw that the museum shows that dinosaurs were on Noah's Ark. The museum will be an amusing arcade, establishing a record of the maintained ignorance and fallacies promoted by fundamental religions. Stuff like how some countries banned Donald Duck because he doesn't wear pants should be displayed in this museum, too. : )

People have a right to be ignorant and stupid, but it's embarrassing that this has to be in the USA. Notice that this is in Kentucky, one of the most backward states there is.

Presenting two sides of an arguement always get people talking and thinking for themselves. Either way they can draw their own theories about Creation and Evolution.

Never seen it, don't want to. If people can't wrap their heads around the idea that evolution and creation go hand in hand, I don't think there is much point in seeing a one sided view. "And God said, 'Let there be light.' " Big bang-light.
