PETERSBURG, Ky. - The head of the Kentucky Paleontological Society is criticizing local tourism officials for promoting the Creation Museum using inflammatory language from the museum's Web site.
The Cincinnati Enquirer reports the Northern Kentucky Convention & Visitors Bureau on its Web site says of the controversial museum: "This 'walk through history' museum will counter evolutionary natural history museums that turn countless minds against Christ and Scripture," according to the story in today's Enquirer.
Natural history museums don't turn people against religion, counters Daniel Phelps, paleontology society president. If they did, there would be regular protests outside those museums.
"There's many people who are very religious, and they don't have a problem with evolution," Phelps said.

" Every day, science makes discoveries that support CREATION and the stories of the Bible, rather than the theory of evolution. Archeaology, biology, DNA/gene research, geology. It takes a whole lotta FAITH to keep believing in evolution in the face of all the new discoveries. " No, that's astoundingly wrong. You simply are such a dishonest human being it's impossible to have an honest, intelligent conversation with you about what is actually true!

Bob in FL says Evolution is a proven fact and that dinosaurs were extinct 65 mil. yrs before humans evolved. Bob, talk to a few evolutionary scientists and they'll tell you there are some serious problems with the theory of evolution. Also, the idea that dinosaurs became extinct so long before humans is PART of the THEORY. It's not fact. You can't state parts of the theory as fact to support your argument that the theory is actually fact (see the circular reasoning?) Every day, science makes discoveries that support CREATION and the stories of the Bible, rather than the theory of evolution. Archeaology, biology, DNA/gene research, geology. It takes a whole lotta FAITH to keep believing in evolution in the face of all the new discoveries. And Michael, they don't get published 'cause the reviewing "peers" are evolutionists who believe Creationism is, as you say, pseudo-science...you answered your own question there. You guys have been truly brainwashed...do the research.

Funny how creationists never get articles published in peer reviewed science journals backing their ridiculous claims. Creationism is pure pseudo-science as the National Academy of Sciences has already made clear.
