Tea at the Creation Museum

Someone kindly pointed out to me that Faggoty-Ass Faggot recently took a field-trip to the so-called "Creation Museum", not far from Cincinnati. As a result he presents a photographic tour, with commentary. There are fabulous shots of such silly things as the dinosaur with the saddle on, a poster explaining how evolution happened after the Flood, and a diorama of Noah's Ark. Also, not to be missed: the very cute Adam, every repressed homosexuals dream. And don't miss the recreated mini-drama in which the daughter explains to the Mom that thinking there were dinosaurs in the Garden of Eden is "stupid" because "Dinosaurs didn't live at the same time as humans."

We are grateful to F-A F for going in so the rest of us don't have to.

    I wonder to what extent this museum is a product of true belief, as opposed to making a buck off of Christian kitsch. I honestly can't tell.

    Well, SW, I'm sure that's just another of its attractions. Hallelujah!

    Last summer I visited the Royal Tyrell Museum in Drumheller, Alberta, one of the best museum experiences I've ever had. The Drumheller River badlands are one of the richest sources of dinosaur remains in the world (right next to the Alberta oil patch, dinosaur remains of another kind of 'rich'); and the Museum displays some spectacular specimens.

    The display is arranged chronologically, so that you move through all the stages of early life on the planet. You work your way through interpretive illustrations of the early periods from which there are no fossil remains, through early fossils from places like the Burgess Shale in British Columbia, and then emerge into this massive room full of rampant and flying dinosaurs of all kinds.

    Down the street some enterprising Alberta "Christian" has set up a "Creation Museum." Appropriately, it's in his garage. Sort of a tailgate museum.

    S. W., I'm sure the museum F-A F describes is indeed the product of belief (though, as a Christian, I am unwilling to say "true belief," lest it be taken to mean belief that is true, rather than that the people involved truly believe what they're presenting).

    Bill, it makes me laugh to think of that "creation museum" in the guy's garage. It is so singularly appropriate. I think that may end up in a story some day.
