Answer 1

What do I think of a place dedicated to keeping children ignorant? I think they should be charged with child abuse for every child who walks through the door. But apparently intellectual child abuse is legal.

Answer 2

I live in Cincinnati, and the museum is just across the river in northern Kentucky. I haven't been there, and I'm no expert in science, so I will withhold judgment. But...

I'm inclined to believe that the truth about the earth's origins is found neither in the "Young-Earth Creationist" camp nor the "Darwinist-Evolutionist" camp. Can't it be that the truth lies somewhere in the middle? Isn't there some way of systematically synthesizing these two opposing viewpoints in a way that will be acceptable to most people? I think that there will always be hardcore true believers on both sides, but most people, in my opinion, could be easily persuaded by a theory that takes the best of what both perspectives has to offer while casting aside that which is pure conjecture or guesswork (and there's plenty of guesswork to go around on both sides, it seems to this casual observer).

Answer 3

The evidence is the same for creationists and evolutionists.
It is the pressupositions that are different.
The creation museum will show how the evidence can lead to a 6 day creation and a young earth. And the evidence does fit the Biblical account of creation.
Ken Ham is very passionate about this and very knowledgeable.
I am looking forward to one day visiting this museum.

Answer 4

it somewhat is complicated to appreciate or fathom. How do all of us understand that dinosaurs did no longer exist with guy? once you're a Christian and understand your Bible: It talks approximately super Leviathans and massive lizards. To me it somewhat is a small element, it does not replace the message. God created each and every thing so the dinosaurs have been created after the God created the earth. they seem to be they have been created interior the creation tale. it variety of feels very in all probability that they died out after the flood. i'm discovering the subject nevertheless. in basic terms ask your self whether it somewhat concerns whilst in comparison with the actual message of God. Our concept-approximately what's clever is a lot smaller than what God extremely does. save your concepts open. back i will assert this. Darwin mentioned that the only thank you to teach evolution is to locate Transitional fossils ( there has been none)

Answer 5

I'll probably get lots of thumbs down [I usually do.] but I think it's a wonderful idea! Not because 'they are showing those evolutionists a thing or two', or because 'we're gonna ram what we think down people's throats', or for any other ignorant reason.

Many physicists, biologists [me too], chemists, astronomers, and other hard core scientists are believers in Creation. There is much in science that lends credibility to that. For years, schools & universities & science journals & etc. have refused to even consider the possibility of actual creation of the universe & everything in it, including the earth & everything on it.

Science, real science, is supposed to be objective. Research & its findings are not supposed to be limited to those that are currently politically correct & yet that is what has happened. So in effect, those scientists who wanted to have their own research presented to the public had no choice but do do something like the Creation Museum.

Answer 6

I'm not a christian, and I don't live in Kentcky, or the US for that matter. But I think that it shouldn't really be in a museum. It is religious belief, which has no evidence whatsoever, the place for that kind of thing is in a religious building like a church or whatever. You dont see scientists taking over churches and teaching science in them do you?? there is a place for religion but it is not in a museum!

Answer 7

Creation museum is redundant.

Answer 8

That museum is lies, lies, lies. And it was started by a "science" "teacher" from Australia, I am ashamed to say. I am proud to say that he would never have been able to make it in Australia because very few fundies here. We just shake our heads and say "only in America".

Answer 9

I'd love to see it. I was in England and practically ran screaming out of the Natural History Museum, it's all about evolution.

Answer 10

It seems a parody on science
