Creationist exhibit in a museum. Now see this is why I drink so heavily!

Suspended overhead in one display, for example, is a replica of a Pteranodon, a pointy-headed flying reptile with a 33-foot wingspan, hollow bones and a bony ruffle on its skull.

Visitors are told: "Each of these unique design features indicate that Pteranodons were created to fly, not that they slowly evolved into flying creatures."

Similar creationist viewpoints appear on plaques throughout the museum, a 3,500-square-foot prototype for a series of regional museums 10 times that size, the first of which is planned for Dallas in 2007.

Finishing the tour with their two sons in tow, Robert and Debbie Archer, surgeons from Tulsa, said they were gratified to visit a museum that reflects their beliefs and not Darwin's.

That is why he developed the museum, said G. Thomas Sharp, founder and chairman of the Creation Truth Foundation."There is so much demographic data telling us that about 50 percent of the American public believes in the biblical story of origins," said Sharp, 62, a former high school science teacher.

There so much wrong with the above sentences that I don't know quite where to start. Okay let me start here; "What the Fuck is wrong with you people?"

I knew a guy that constantly talked about UFO's. He was convinced that they were real and he was upset the scientists would not seriously pursue the many stories that showed up in those UFO themed magazines. I knew a girl who was convinced that the woods behind her house was populated by elves. She claimed to have seen them and when questioned as to why others had not, she said that they were very shy and untrusting. There are societies that believe the moon landing was fake. There are groups that think Jesus was an alien. There are those who think that every stain on a window or the wall behind the fridge looks like Jesus or the Virgin Mary.

The point is there are ignorant people everywhere! If we were to build a museum to suit he beliefs of every American there would be no room for houses. And where would anybody go to find the truth? Scientists are doing a pretty good job of exposing the bullshit and ferreting out the facts. They have made some flat out amazing discoveries in just the last five years. There is so much to learn. How will we continue to learn with these rediculous sideshows cropping up everywhere? We won't!

Look, here is the point. Everybody is not right! Most people are wrong! The truth will never fit neatly into anybodies preconceived ideas of what the truth should look like. The truth is ugly. But it is the truth. Get used to it!
