Americans are Flocking to a Hi-Tech Creation Museum Where Man and Dinosaurs Frolick Happily Together - CommonDreams.org

OR NOT!
The Museum of Natural History in New York this is not. Welcome, rather, to the Creation Museum, a $27m facility that opened in May — to a veritable onslaught of enthusiastic visitors — on a 49-acre site in northeast Kentucky close to Cincinnati. There is no shortage of references to Darwin, whose teachings about evolution most of us are familiar with and more comfortable accepting. But the clear purpose is to demolish not celebrate them. You get the idea of where you are also when you learn that the folk behind it are the founders of a fundamentalist Christian ministry called Answers in Genesis.
