Creation Museum

13 Nov 2007

Blogger and SF author John Scalzi reports on the new $27m Creation Museum near Cincinnati airport. Be warned that this is long, pulls no punches, and is ... er ... mind-blowing. Captioned photostream starts here.; for a taste, an example sign reads:

"Is there any other evidence of 'Dinosaurs' living after the Flood?
Dragons may have been dinosaurs. Dragon legends exist all over the world, depicting creatures that lived with humans. The country of Wales has a dragon on its flag as its national emblem. Many of the dragon descriptions, carvings, and paintings fit with our understanding of dinosaurs."

Want to go? Plan your visit at the museum website. Note that you're not allowed to take firearms inside.

Just... amazing. Quite amazing.
