The Creation Museum in Kentucky - a memorial or a scientific reminder of the power of Dark Ages belief systems - What does the 'museum' mean to you?

Asked by mattbrowne (31732points) March 26th, 2009

The Creation Museum is a 60,000 square foot museum in the United States designed to promote young Earth creationism. The museum presents an account of the origins of the universe, life, mankind, and man’s early history according to a literal reading of the book of Genesis. Its exhibits reject evolution and assert that the earth and all of its life forms were created in 6 days just 6000 years ago and that man and dinosaurs once coexisted.

To me the ‘museum’ serves as warning and a reminder to modern societies which have to do everything to defend enlightenment and freedom and the separation of church and state.
