What is this "Creation Museum" I keep hearing about?

Question

I honestly have no idea what that is. Also, what's a "crockoduck"? I guess I'm not up on the latest stuff!

Answer 1

Its a new museum located in Kentucky near Cincinnati promoting creationism. Ken Ham and his organization Answer in Genesis built it . The museum explains creation, Noah's flood, and many of the true biblical views like a young earth(believed about 6000 years old). This museum challenges evolution and atheist that try to disprove the Bible. Great and logical museum with very cheap admission.God Bless

Answer 2

Creation Museum
The Creation Museum is a US$27 million museum currently being built in the United States with funding from the organisation, Answers in Genesis.

Planning and construction of the building began in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It is located in Petersburg, Kentucky, near the Greater Cincinnati International Airport. According to the founder of Answers in Genesis, Ken Ham, "One of the main reasons we moved there was because we are within one hour's flight of 69 per cent of America's population."

Amongst its various displays and exhibits, the museum is being designed to include life-size and even animatronic (animated and motion-sensitive) dinosaurs, large movie screens showing a young-earth history of the world, a technologically superior planetarium depicting creationist cosmologies and creationist interpretations of quantum physics, and a life-size model of Noah's Ark housing a conference center and hotel rooms. Model dinosaurs in the Garden of Eden will also be depicted.

The projected cost of the building, interior designs, and exhibits is around US$25 million (although recent expansion projects prior to opening has pushed the price tag to around US$27 million). As of October 31, 2006, $23.8 million has been raised in donations and the museum is expected to open in the summer of 2007. Answers in Genesis' success in raising donations for the museum was contrasted with the failure of the American Museum of Natural History to find corporate sponsorship for their exhibit on the life of Charles Darwin, because, according to the Daily Telegraph, "American companies are anxious not to take sides in the heated debate between scientists and fundamentalist Christians over the theory of evolution."

CROCHODUCK-

Well the thing is Kirk didn't make a point with a crockoduck it was a rude joke from a supposedly good christian. Kirk said to be on the look out for these transition creatures to bridge gaps in evolution. One was the crockoduck. Half crocodile and half duck. Of course Crocodiles and ducks are not on the same evolutionary line so it was just a big rude farce. It's amazing that the atheist took the debate seriously and then Kirk tries to turn it in to a big joke. He was the one that wanted the debate and said that he could prove god with out faith or the bible....

Answer 3

You haven't heard of it? It sure has caused a commotion with atheists. They're all upset about it. Lot's of free publicity. What I think about is after all the fanfare is over, what is it's future? Will people continue to pay high entry fees to go? Most secular museums are government funded and even they have trouble justifying keeping their doors open. So I'll be curious to see what happens in a few years once the glow wears off. But I love the alternative option provided. We've all been to the other museums so now let's see another point of view.

Answer 4

I have heard of the creation museum here in KY, which is a joke

Their add says:

Coming soon to Kentucky but near Cincinnati.
"Explore the wonders of creation. The imprint of the Creator is all around us. And the Bible’s clear—heaven and earth in six 24-hour days, earth before sun, birds before lizards. Other surprises are just around the corner. Adam and apes share the same birthday. The first man walked with dinosaurs and named them all! God’s Word is true, or evolution is true. No millions of years. There’s no room for compromise." The stargazers room is the big attraction. You can witness that there was NO big bang!

Whatever!!!!

Answer 5

hello, it is exactly what it says.a museum that explains creation.you only have two choices. creation or evolution.evolution is a big lie.NO scientic evidence.just because someone says something doesnt make it true.this goes for creation also.CHECK it out for yourself.example.the earth is covered in sedimentary rock 95%.this means it water was in volved.(world flood would explain this)sea shells on the highest peaks of mountains.but the evolutionist say the earth was molten lava for millions of years. NO PROOF OF THIS but it must be true right? after all the evolutionist is always right.you get the picture.

Answer 6

The Crockaduck is used by fundamentalist Christians Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron (a/k/a The Way of the Master) to some how "prove" evolution is false.

This video will show you Kirk Cameron, or Mike Seaver, show off his intellectual might in an evolution vs. creationism debate, and the mystery of the crockaduck will be revealed.

The Creationism Museum is a place near Cincinnati where creationists explain that the earth is 6000 years old, dinosaurs rode on Noah's Ark, and evolution is an abomination. Good laughs.

Answer 8

The Creation Museum is a 60,000 square foot, $27 million museum in the United States designed to promote young Earth creationism. The museum presents an account of the origins of the universe, life, mankind, and man's early history according to a literal reading of the book of Genesis. Its exhibits assert that the planet is just a few thousand years old and that man and dinosaurs once coexisted. In contrast, over 99% of the scientists in relevant fields accept that the earth is approximately 4.5 billion years old, and that the dinosaurs became extinct 65.5 million years before human beings arose.

1. Crocoduck
One of the most prominant icons of modern day Christianity, the Crocoduck is capable of dispeling all arguements in favour of Atheism and Darwinism simply by not existing. Its sworn enemy is the platypus, which, in harsh contrast, is capable of proving god does not exist by existing.

Answer 9

It doesn't make sense that everything has a creator. There is absolutely no proof that supports Christian Creationism.

Answer 10

A museum that has a theme that dinosours were around Adam and Eve. Also possilbly rode in the ark. Just some wacky stuff that will piss off more religous people then I.
