Protesters On Hand As Controversial Museum Opens
Protesters were on hand Monday morning as the controversial Creation Museum opened its doors for the first time to huge crowds.

Monday wasn't only Memorial Day, it was also the grand opening of a controversial new museum in northern Kentucky.

Visitors and protesters alike lined up outside the Creation Museum in Boone County.

The 27 million dollar facility, just a few miles south of Cincinnati, tells visitors that the earth is just a few thousand years old and that Adam and Eve lived among the dinosaurs.

They came for different reasons, hundreds of people on two sides of history. One side says what's being told inside the museum's walls is false.

Some are protesting the opening of the creation museum, which holds to the idea that the universe is only about six thousand years old.

Thousands of people also lined up Monday morning to tour the new museum.

A ministry called Answers in Genesis raised 27 million dollars in donations for the 65 thousands square foot museum.

Creation Museum president Ken Ham insists, "mainstream science confirms the Bible's history."

I thought we lived in a nation of freedom and to be able to learn everything about anything. Looks like double standards. They let haunted houses open all over the place. You can go or not go what is the big deal right.

in order for there to be evolution, it must be a continuing process, . a person place or thing does not evolve once and stop. there should be millions still in the process of evolving. still in the ape stage heading to the next level and so on. and so on. and so on. and so on. they should just keep on evolving and getting better and better. which leaves us with the age old question, where ARE all the missing links? duh! by the way, by now shouldn't we be traveling by brain waves? things do evolve and change but there are always the steps of change evident in and of the change, ie the missing link. I am a Christian thus I believe in Creation and every word of the Bible. I do not understand it all but I Believe it all. FAITH. FOR GRACE ARE YOU SAVED BY FAITH. I write this not to argue but to put forth my view. Think about it.
