The Creationist Museum

A Creationist (Artist Unknown)Isn't it amazing how human beings can go on believing soppy ideas despite all the evidence to the contrary? Ken Ham, President of Answers in Genesis, is one of those gullible people who take the biblical fable of Creation seriously, and he's spending a fortune building a Creationist museum in Petersburg, Kentucky, to promote this anachronistic absurdity. What, one wonders, can the exhibits possibly be? A statue of a woman who smiles and declares "Hi, folks; I'm Adam's rib; have a nice day"? A talking dinosaur that repeats "I was made by God only five days before he made Man"? Interminable reruns of The Greatest Story Ever Told with John Wayne drawling "Surely he was the son-a Gawd"? What about a stuffed ostrich with its head buried in the sand?

There will be enough people flocking to it to make it all very profitable.

Cynic!
I'm sure you're right. God and Jesus are big business in the USA. In fact they've been big business for the last 2,000 years. The Catholic Church is rolling in riches. "Buy a piece of the cross, guv?" The latest religious scam, exposed only a few weeks ago, was some remains of Joan of Arc!
