Despite all protestations to the contrary by the godbots.
Seriously. If faith were enough, then they wouldn't need to hijack science to support their cosmogony. (Look it up.)

That's an excellent point. Kinda seems like they're trying a little too hard, doesn't it?

Agreed.
cosmogony - A scientific or mythological account about the origin of the universe. All cultures throughout the world have some kind of origin myth (or cosmogony), thus answering the human existential question regarding the origin of the universe and man. Essentially, cosmogony is a Greek word which literally means "the birth of the cosmos."
cosmology - Different from cosmogony, which is concerned with origins, cosmology is essentially a branch of philosophy that is concerned with the universe as a totality, integrating both physics and metaphysics. In modern science, however, cosmology is primarily concerned with the universe according to contemporary notions of physics. In the Greek, cosmology literally means "the study of the cosmos."

Sadly true for many.
Many people major on the so-called scientific side because they lack faith. It isn't that faith isn't enough. It is because they agree with you that faith is blind.
Faith is not without sight, rather it is the eye which allows one to see and to contact the life from which everything flows. Science neither proves or disproves God. To use it to prove or disprove God produces twisted truth on both sides.
It is my observation that literally thousand of people who believe in creation, and thousands who don't, still have one thing in common. Neither group has met life nor come to terms with death.
If faith has not produced a meeting and actual conversation with the living God, in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ; whatever else one thinks or believes is of no consequence.
I have always enjoyed seeing the efforts of science unfold as man plays out God's plan. While men argue the pros and cons of this cosmos; God has already started another!
Man is neither God's judge nor His defender. All the efforts and concerns of men are meaningless to those who touch and drink from the source.

Faith is enough! The Creation Museum was built to counter the Atheist museum. Atheist think the T-Rex was a Carcass eater not what science is trying to shove down our throat. It's body tells us that it was not the predator that science think it was.

I notice that you had to call them "godbots". Why did you have to do that? I hope it is not because you thank you are better than they are.
Just for you to know not all Christians reject evolution. Evolution is how he did it.
As for faith. What does it matter to me? If they want to build a museum and I don't have to pay for it, that is there right. I am not going to it. I much rather go to a museum that not only uplifts the soul and teaches me the truth about nature.

If faith was meant to be blind, you would be correct. However, this is not a NT view of what faith is. Instead, faith is preceded by adequate knowledge. Faith is not contrary to reason or evidence, but rather is supposed to be supported by both.

First I need to know what "Creation Museum" is.Then I can say if I agree or disagree.

Not agree.
Church income is steadily lower in past a few year after 911 jump. So, they copy ( as normally they do, eg. Bible ) marketing idea from Hollywood.
In Short, it's a advertisement and viewer will pay for advertisement as well. Therefore, it is a win-win advertisement for Church.

Creationism museum was built by man, Faith is from God. I need no museum to justify my Faith in Christ. I would assume greed is the main reason why it was built. Just like any other place ever built . Thanks for the question, and have a great day.

everyone is different and needs to hear different things. while some people are happy with the Bible's explaniations, some would rather trust other sources (like other religions or science). It is all about knowing the unknown, like people are afraid of the dark, becuase it is unknown what is lurking out of sight, people want to hear things that will bring them to their comfort zone and for each person it is different.
