new museum

I know that north america is just a little bit outside of Europe, but
this museum simply looks too exciting too miss. I'm going to book now!

They're a scary bunch.

I was looking through the personal profiles of the staff.

They do seem to employ a lot of artists and are a touch light on people with
any sort of scientific background...

I'm assuming this isn't some sort of sophisticated joke.

Mind you, I thought the 'Chick Tracts' were a joke when I first came across
them...

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.

You couldn't make it up...

It was featured this morning on BBC Breakfast and showed children playing
with herbivore dinosaurs (with an explanation that yes, that really
happened).

I can't work out what it's (the commercial doesn't play and my pdf reader says the
brouchure is corrupt)!

If it's about creation according to genesis, what are they doing with "dinosaur
animatronics"? It does sound interesting though - I'd certainly go if it wasn't 3000
miles away.....there aren't many museums devoted to religion.

No churches near you then?

I haven't decided yet exactly what this museum is devoted to. The $20
price tag is _very_ expensive by US standards. The Met in NYC suggests a
$15 "contribution" IIRC.

Linked from their website, this explains it all!

I find it fascinating that people believe this stuff. But at least these people seem
to be consistent - there's none of the usual bull**** you get from most religious
people I know, that genesis "isn't meant to be taken literally", yet the resurrection
of Christ is...

its all ****ing corrupt.....brings the pages of the Bible to life. I
dont remember any Dinosaurs in that book !

perhaps the Scientologists will get nervous and 'take them out'.

there aren't many museums devoted to religion.

The Glasgow one beside the cathedral is okay ("St Mungo's Museum of
Mumbo-Jumbo") though a Buddhist friend of mine says they screwed up
with a few things about Buddhism (putting images of Buddha on the
floor and an uninspiring Zen garden design).

The best I've seen is the room devoted to early Islam in the Topkapi in
Istanbul. And in its perverse way the Church of St Paul Shipwrecked in
Malta, which isn't intentionally a museum but feels like a warehouse-
sized version of your mad Catholic great-aunt's attic, with tons of dusty
tat looming out of stygian gloom.

Hardly museums...

I haven't decided yet exactly what this museum is devoted to.

It seems to point to this website a lot: http://www.answersingenesis.org

Yes. TV evangelists spring to mind...
