A friend found this album of photos from the recently opened Creation Museum in Kentucky. Highlights include the problem of Cain and incest, vegatarian dinosaurs and floating forests.

A testament to human stupidity.

It is amazing to see that after the centuries of scientists and scholars such Newton, Boyle, Descartes, St. Thomas Aquinas, Gallileo and others (all of them being very religious people) and they developed higher understanding of God and the role of God in creation of Universe and its functions. We have now people going back to close to Dark Ages ideas of God literally participating in Creation.
But if that what makes those people happy and makes them feel special than by all means they can do that.

Why is that naked dude suspiciously grabbing a little lamb!?

I thought Newton, Aquinas, Galileo, etc. did believe God literally participated in Creation.

Newton for one believed God to be like a watchmaker and that the universe ran like clockwork. But he didn't know about quantum mechanics so fair enough I guess.
Galileo ridiculed the pope in one of his textbooks (he used the popes name as the "stooge" in a conversation between someone who thought that the sun revoved aroud the earth and a more knowledgeable scientific person, I seem to remember). Then he was thrown in prison and later house arrest until his death I think. So he was probably quite down on religion by the end of his life.

Well, Adam and Eve had three sons but no daughter..so...I wouldn't be surprised if one those idiots would prove that modern humans are descendants of sheep.

I wouldn't be surprised if that became a big tourist attraction. I'd like to visit it.
Well, God didn't make Eve right away, and a man can get lonely....
All joking aside, I wouldn't mind going to get my picture taken on that dinosaur with a saddle. That'd be a pretty cool picture.
Adam had a beard before Eve was around? I wonder if he named it Steve.

Maybe you should actually read the Bible before making outlandish claims.
Genesis 5:4
After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters.

Actually you have to be careful with the Galileo incident. Galileo had three characters in one of his books talking ot each other. Salviati (name of the Galileo's favorite professor) who represented Galileo, Sagredo (name of Galileo's friend from Veneitan court) who represented a curious induvidual, and Simplicio (which is by some translated as simpliton, but Galileo argued that it was Roman philospher Simplicus) who represented Aristotelean old views. The last views were partially held by the church but not completely. Actually the pope at the time was a friend of Galileo and allowed him to publish his book at first, but than he had to hit on him due to politics.
Galileo always said that Bible teaches the way to Heaven and not how the heavens work.
Robert Boyle saw God as an entity that game motion to matter which formed the universe and what we call laws of nature.
God was not seen as an enity that physically created a man, or a tree or a rock but rather as an entity that set the process in motion that resulted in the world's creation as it is.
Now just to point something out, if Adam and Eve were the original parents of all humanity than we are all a result of inbreding between their sons and daughters which in turn would be against Church's teachings on inbreeding.

I fail to see what the fuss is about. Let people have their fun.
Also, thats not the first time I have seen a dino with a saddle. Saw a merry-go-round that had dinos with saddles instead of horses once some years back. That was interesting looking.

Exactly. That's what we're doing in this thread.
