Creation Museum Criticized But What Else Is New?

Here's the story: http://travel.msn.com/Guides/article...5367&GT1=10142

"A new $27 million museum that tells a biblical version of the Earth’s creation is drawing fire from science educators, who say the exhibits are scientifically inaccurate...The educators say its exhibits, inspired by the Old Testament, are geared toward children but lack scientific evidence."

One thing they won't tell you is that "scientific" necessarily means "based in the philosophy of naturalism," since what we call science came to us from Greek philosophers who brought us naturalism, secularism and humanism - and all of these are integral parts of what the world calls "science."

Another quote from the article:

"Answers in Genesis founder Ken Ham said the vast majority of natural history museums and textbooks available to students are devoted to teaching evolution.

'And they're worried about one creation museum?' he said. 'I think they're really concerned that we're going to get information out that they don't want people to hear.'

Ham said critics need to tour the museum before making judgments."

These people don't even know what's in the museum and they're criticizing it. Well, at the very least, it gives the museum free advertising.

I didn't have a clue what you're talking about until I found this article (http://www.themessenger.info/archive.../WynnFree.html). Though I'm not sure the syndrome works in humans, at least not with certain religion-based unpopular ideas humans may have.
