The "big news" here is that museums are proactively teaching people about evolution and science _instead_ of avoiding confrontation so as not to offend people. That is quite new. - eric_n_dfw, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Did you read the whole article? It basically said to present the scientific evidence and agree to disagree if needed. No big news here.

- xs10shul, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm glad to see the scientific community, in general, waking up to the creationist attack on public education. The problem, however, is that it's a bit too little, too late. We're now confronted with a situation where the state of science education has been so poor for so long, that science educators have to educate an ignorant public WHILE they persuade.

Contemporary christians have employed just about every other device found in contemporary pagan culture, so why not build a museum of their own as well? This would allow them to tell their story exactly how they believe it happened.
