That museum looks like something out of a Saturday morning cartoon.

There's one of these museums in Oregon just outside Winston on I5. It's not as elaborate, but just as stupid.

Speaking of Creationism & Intelegent(?)Design, there's a great common sense (and rather humorous) takedown of creationism, in the "The Theory of Evil-ution vs The Mythology of Creationism" posts at "grumblesfromanoldgrouch.com".

Some day archaeologists are going to dig these places up and remark on how primitive a people we must have been.

Or:

Some day archaeologists are going to uncover Creation Museums and the Hadron and remark on our schizophrenia.

Oh, boy, where to begin?

“creationism,” as the public delights to call creation advocacy today

Delights? I thought we were supposed to call it "intelligent design." I'm so confused!

has existed for as long as modern science has existed

Modern science? Like bloodletting to cure disease, ether, phlogiston, Earth in the center of the universe, Galileo and others excommunicated for trying to tell observed fact? Have we learned anything from modern science? Explain bacterial resistance, please.

There was a time when it was very, very dangerous to go against the Church's teaching. It appears in some places it still is. Zeus will be very angry.

Wanna bet there is Money involved?

I wish I had their mailing list: "Help! We are being persecuted by a bunch of "scientists". Send Money!"

Dinosaur is disappointed, not eating happy caveperson. Caveperson happy, look like Snookie. Snookie act like caveperson. Reality TV is invented. God is happy.

And can someone tell me how many "tax-payer" dollars went into this "the made it themselves with their own money museum"? Funny how the GOTP don't want BIG GOVERNMENT wasting their money on Planned Parenthood (which actually helps women's health) yet have NO problem begging for WELFARE to create a dumbed down "Disney" without the rides!

Aw, the creationists. Now, we need Huckabee with his Mount Carmel moment to show which of the types of creationists are the OneTrueChristians. I want to see some heavenly death and destruction on those "pagans" who dare to be wrong!(1 Kings 18) Who gets Young earthers? Old earthers? Theist evolution types? Oh yes, and all of the idiots who claim various ludicrous things on how the magical flood happened? Which one of them are the ones with the "truth"?

As "CINCHOME" keeps saying, "their ignorance is bottomless."

Watching people too stupid and ignorant to know how stupid and ignorant they are and how happy they are to publicly display the stupidity and the ignorance is just amazing. But then, given this is going on in Ten-Generations-of-"Inbreeding"-World, it's not that surprising.

Fred Flintstone was obviously more instrumental in the intellectual development of some of these Homo revisionist preachers. If the series was updated Bainstone would have outsourced everyone in Bedrock.

I'm sorry, but that raptor sees that caveman as lunch.

Will there be a wing for Hindu creationists? Or sections honoring Native Americans who are famous for sharing their creation stories with the world (via oral history, books, etc.)? How about honoring some of the great bloggers and others who are keeping alive the creation story from the Flying Spaghetti Monster?

And the idea of Newton in the creationist hall of fame is really mind boggling.

One of these days, when human DNA is extracted from raptor dung, we can all sit down and have this conversation again.

unbelievable and sad people in this century are so ignorant.

What is wrong with the educational system?

very, very sad -- closed minds led to the inquisition, not inventions.

Caveman living with dinosaurs is supported by many politicians who plan to get elected. That’s one side of the story the other is that there are more than enough voters who are responsible for electing those same politicians.

The problem here is what is espoused by politicians and by voters never quite happens, and those policies aren’t realized. Now it needs an explanation we might say, but not really because creationism and evolution are always assumed to not need any explanation.

Humans were never to use their own judgment, the gift from God to decide what is relevant then make is happen and to discard what is irrelevant.

Irrelevant could be those things that who proof's cannot be had, or that would take too long to prove, or would change nothing.

Since we are here creation or evolution may not matter, and even the scriptures cannot have made it crime just thing about that, and what was the purpose of scriptures if they went to at length define what could be thought and what could not.

CTAG/AHCT the DNA molecules have been around since creation, so far there and no exceptions, the chaos tossed seeds of life, might have well been there separate from the full human formulation along with the dinosaurs, the full formulation may have been there too. The problem for from god given logic is that the whole idea is faith in god, faith is relevant and non-faith is not relevant, but for devilish reasons.

Here’s test for all. Penicillin existed since the dinosaurs, but did not go extinct, its development lead to manipulation of DNA, along the lines of evolution, and those germs escaping its destruction are indirectly manipulated. This could be man recreating dreaded evolution, saving nasty germs threatening us all. This would ungodly, since creation is gods business, and not mans. The pious and religious could demonstrate their faith by not participating in the health care system and take their chances, those opposed would just gone improving cures and everyone would happy.

Of course those who took their chances, would evangelize the rest for ever, and develop campaigns to force their belief in others.

Now this us more than a little bit strange God set man a foot in Earth, with a few commandments that did not work, more less this was taken to be man decision, God wanted it that way and hoped for the best. The strange part is that man took upon himself to set down a few rules, but unlike God is not going to leave the rest of us alone. We are forever going too harassed into being religious, by manmade commandments, and be creationist all over again.

Here's what we will do, we will agree, we'll agree with all the nonsense we told, and when asked will espouse the same nonsense. Would that satisfy the religious people? Maybe for a while, but like marriage, someone will have to check to prove the acceptable procedures.

Yeah, yeah. Humans and dinosaurs. Where are the freaking Silurians, huh?

Creationism is simply a carryover from the dark ages when people were killed for varying from the church's teachings. Religions attack on science has resulted in stopping scientific advance in all field of human endeavour, and it still is.

Tolkien is more historically accurate than these characters.

As a Kentuckian, I am mortified and totally embarrased for our state. This nonsense just amped up our proud tradition of being a bare footin' back woods state. Ugh! I think these organizers watched a lit-tle too much of the Flintstones religious historical documentaries cartoons during their formative years.

I have hiked the Grand Canyon several times - allll the way down and of course aaaaalllllll the way back up. {Next time, I'm going to hike down and raft out, I think. Whew}

I am not a geologist but am knowledgeable enough to appreciate (as much as my puny human brain can grasp) the timescale.

As you walk down through the layers and see the changing colors and textures, you get to a point called the Great Unconformity, where you can put your hand on some rocks and with the put the other hand on rocks that are a BILLION years older. During that billion year gap, rock was laid down and then eroded, then more was laid down.

My emotional and spiritual response to this knowledge is "My God How Great Thou Art!!"

I am a Christian, as the "creationists" claim to be. But my understanding of the Creator and of Creation is far more powerful and awesome then theirs.

The way I reconcile the biblical texts and scientific theory is this:

Science helps us understand WHEN? and HOW?

Religion helps us understand WHO? and WHY?

The questions being asked are different, so the answers are different.

Jesus B. Fecking Christ is all I have to say about that.. Frauds and liars are not my idea of diversification. Usually condemnation before investigation is a big No-No, however in this case, these peeps are mentally and religiously retarded! Judge away I say..

I'm not sure why, but I keep thinking about false gods.......

I laughed so hard at that picture I wet my pants. The human smiling at the raptor who apparently thought it was the family pet and not a viscious carnivore. Was it cave-broken yet?

OKaaaay,,,, so what happened to the dinosaurs? They weren't allowed on the Ark? Why not?

I sure we can all agree Adam and Eve were white, (gwaaad), where then did all the black people come from? They EVOLVED from the whites?

Shouldn't gad give us a heads up on how many days are in a year?

Gad telling us the sun is a star.
