In honor of the 220th anniversary of Kentucky’s entrance into the Union, I present this treasure. The state of Kentucky opened the 70,000 square foot “Creation Museum” in 2007, furthering making the U.S. a mockery of the world. The “museum” concept is based on Christian biblical lore; “casting its characters and animals in dynamic form and placing them in familiar settings.” Yes, of course – what else would you expect? Scientific facts? But, the museum became distressed when it learned that Budget Travel doesn’t include it on its must-see sites in Kentucky.
The museum offered this heartbreaking statement recently:
“The creation science group that runs the museum, Answers in Genesis, expressed disappointment. The group said, ‘Curiously, despite being a clear winner in terms of votes received, the Creation Museum does not appear on the Budget Travel List. We are certainly aware many evolutionists fear exposing children to the sort of critical thinking encouraged by a visit to the Creation Museum. And while we never discourage parents from taking their children to museums such as the number two choice on Budget Travel’s list – the Field Museum of Chicago, home of ‘the biggest Tyrannosaurus rex fossil ever dug up’ – we do suggest they go armed with a bucketful of discernment.’”
Altogether now – break out your banjos!
