The Creation Museum

Here is an interesting article on a new museum in Petersburg, Kentucky (near Cincinnati, Ohio) devoted to proving Creation through modern science: "Inside the Creation Museum" (Salon.com). I'm personally not sure that I affirm the brand of "young earth Creationism" espoused by this museum's founders, but I have read quite enough to to cause me to be very skeptical about the concept of Darwinian Evolution (macroevolution) as it is currently taught in our schools. This museum, at the very least, will hopefully facilitate the opening of a forum for debate, and obligate both sides to redouble their efforts to seek tenable evidence with which to bolster their respective positions regarding the origins of life.
