Okay, so I guess this dude has spent some 27 million dollars on a museum depicting a Biblically-Accurate world where humans and dinosaurs co-existed. It's not far from me, I'll be checking it out and bringing the camera along to make some serious fun of these tools. Just ridiculous.

...an expansion is already underway in the state-of-the art lobby, where grunting dinosaurs and animatronic humans coexist in a Biblical paradise.
The $27 million project, which also includes a planetarium, a special-effects theater, nature trails and a small lake, is privately funded by people who believe the Bible's first book, Genesis, is literally true.

For them, a museum showing Christian schoolchildren and skeptics alike how the earth, animals, dinosaurs and humans were created in a six-day period about 6,000 years ago -- not over millions of years, as evolutionary science says -- is long overdue.

While foreign media and science critics have mostly come to snigger at exhibits explaining how baby dinosaurs fit on Noah's Ark and Cain married his sister to people the earth, museum spokesman and vice-president Mark Looy said the coverage has done nothing but drum up more interest.


:biggrin: I can't wait. What dummies. God Bless America.

Edit - This quote is even better, I love it.

I've heard something about dinosaurs being in the bible before, apparantly they derive it from some mythical creature mentioned known as a behemoth, which is meant to be a dragon of some sort, I dunno.

Pretty ridiculous, but I would like to see it just for a laugh.

I think we're planning on notifying the museum ahead of time that we're showing up. Only under the pretense that we're a really Conservative Christian youth group or something of the sort. They won't be mad at us having cameras then. And heck, why not man, I'll ride a dinosaur. Just like my ancestors did, I'll tell them.

I for one am interested to see how they intend to match unfounded belief against scientific fact.

I mean, imagine a world where Christianity never existed. Then a guy comes along and says, "yo doods, I found evidence that this guy was the son of a cosmic entity called God, he lived 2,000 years ago and performed miracles; also, dinosaurs and humans lived together in a big garden."

And everyone goes, "what proof?"

And he says, "because I say so is why."

lol, fundamentalist religion always tickles my funny bone.

Did you make it or did you just find it on Google? Seems so damn random.

Edit - you had to have found it, you have no PS there, I'm a full.
