- dagooh, on 06/06/2008, -21/+191This phrase pretty much sums it all up.
"this was a place built with passion for the true believers, here to soak up knowledge and explore a version of junk science that finally makes them feel sane in an insane world."
It really scares me to think that a lot of children will be raised to believe in all this YEC *****. - N1C0L3, on 06/06/2008, -24/+179These types of crazy people seriously creep me the ***** out.
"For all I care you can believe that God is a space turtle who ***** out the world every morning and eats it again every night, and one day the world will hatch open and the almighty Son of Turtle God will emerge from the placenta of the earth and vomit rainbows onto the true believers before carrying them on His back to the promised land of Turtopia. It's a free country, go nuts."
LOL. - arcooke, on 06/07/2008, -12/+151Someone should build a mythology museum right nextdoor.. and while the creationists are sleeping, join them together.
- iamtehwinnerz, on 06/07/2008, -13/+148Watch the video. He's preaching his "creationist" views to 7 years olds because he knows that anyone older than that will know he's full of *****.
- scy1192, on 06/07/2008, -12/+134This is offensive to Christians. No, not the article, the museum.
- Floomdesk, on 06/06/2008, -16/+132God, look at the first video of Ken Ham explaining his version of the "truth" to the children... parents are ruining their kids lives with ***** like that.
- dunderballer, on 06/06/2008, -19/+105By focusing on Creationalism, Evangelicals are walking a risky line. People can rally behind the tenants of forgiveness, compassion, peace, love, humility, which the Bible has many passages to support. However, people are no longer buying literal translations of Noah's Ark, YEC/6 day creation, Sodom & Gomorrah, Adam and Eav, etc. These stories sound at least at silly as Greek mythology with many similarities such as talking animals.
- bobfrancis, on 06/07/2008, -7/+75I am embarrassed, for those fools, and that this exists in my country.
- noahhoward, on 06/07/2008, -1/+58I will, thanks. Oh, by the way Satan sends his love, says he's looking forward to watching you burn for passing judgement.
- eltrev, on 06/07/2008, -2/+59Grandma just bought an annual pass.
- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -3/+57No one cares if you believe in fairies. We only care when you try to force others to believe in your fairies.
- animecrazy9, on 06/07/2008, -9/+60Having been raised in a cult, I can tell you right now that this attitude of "let them believe whatever they want" is far from harmless. These kinds of evangelical people are crazy.
They completely screw up their children. I still have huge problems due to the way I was raised (outside of the real world) with social interaction and knowledge and I know of many other kids that were ostracized because they don't believe what their family does. Not to mention those that were "saved" from the evils of youth. I hate to see some of my former friends wasting their potential. - Zarokima, on 06/07/2008, -9/+58You are beyond hope. Please keep your head buried in the sand where nobody can hear you and don't breed.

- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -2/+45No, they buy into it becuase when they were younger...
are you getting me? - Murdats, on 06/07/2008, -1/+43the one drawback of being rational, we cant threaten people with fairtales.
- relic180, on 06/07/2008, -3/+45"Those same types of people are hear to tell us today that we're all here because of nothing. Nothing collided with nothing. It rained for billions of years on the something that nothing produced in it's collision with nothing, turning the rocks into a life form. That life form subsequently and single-handedly reproduced...and POOF...hear we all are...a miracle and product of nothing. Isn't that just something?"
Holy ***** (no pun intended), your ignorance is so thick it's like walking, waste deep, through chunky peanut butter. I understand it's a natural reaction for religious types to react so defensively, because they (you) feel like you're being attacked. I'll address that in a second.
But first...
Religious beliefs had nothing to do with the "world is flat" belief. First, the bible was simply updated to include a round earth in one of its MANY re-writes. Second, if it was an idea that was intentionally perpetuated despite evidence of the contrary (and you'd really have to cite a claim like that), it was done by the monarchy to keep the peasants in line, and had nothing to do with religious belief.
Atheists don't believe that we came from nothing, we believe that we are a product of the natural behavior of the universe which has existed beyond our ability to define its beginning. We will never know how old the universe is and we're ok with that. It's something we just can't know and we've accepted it.
I have no idea what "rained for billions of years" is suppose to mean, so I'll just move on.
Rocks don't turn into life forms.. collections of proteins turn into life forms. I know you're angry but assuming that an Atheist believes rocks become life forms just demonstrates your blind anger toward a different way of thinking.
And I know the religious types will never accept this, but continuing to develop testable and re-produceable demonstrations of the way the universe works, without supernatural process, is not the same as "shaking fists" and "stomping feet".
God should feel threatened, because he's nothing more than your imaginary friend who is now faced with retaining existence without the "luxury" of evidence. - alienate, on 06/06/2008, -22/+63Baby Jesus hearts this.
- omnithought, on 06/07/2008, -5/+42The funny thing is that many of the exhibits present the museum's version of Science vs Bible and end up sounding like arguments against creationism. Yet, lots of stupid people go in there and think that science got some kid of smackdown.
- iamtehwinnerz, on 06/07/2008, -6/+43Make sure to check for colon cancer while you're head's stuck in your ass.
- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -6/+43Its commonly called brainwashing children, and it should be illegal and punishable in to the same degree as child rape, cuz that essentially what they are doing.
- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -10/+46Reality is offensive to Christians.
- relic180, on 06/07/2008, -6/+42"Taken from the end of the first paragraph"
And that's likely where you stopped reading and just guessed at the rest of the article, based on your "experiences" with Atheists. For the record, the author was exaggerating the content of the bible to make his point that it is very, very stupid. Which, of course, it is.
"What the bible teaches", actually, is how to fear and obey the imaginary conjurations of ancient people who had no concept or understanding of the universe as it is, only how they guessed it was based on zero info.
I also noticed that when you addressed perspectives other than your own, you used the word "lies" three times, "piece of trash", "misinformation" and "garbage" once each. You used the word "truth" three times, and "facts" and "good" once each. Removing these statements reveals that you've not actually presented any argument at all but are mudslinging your bat-***** insane ass off.
"everything just magically came together"
That's like the pot calling the kettle black, even though the kettle is actually the dedication of thousands upon thousands of human lives spent endlessly studying, observing, testing and documenting the universe, then augmenting theories based off of the findings of other minds and vise versa. THEN defining a set of basic rules to follow, and building upon that knowledge base to reach the next level of understanding, all the while modifying and improving the original foundation of knowledge whenever necessary, always based off the observations and testing of other efforts. Yup. EXACTLY the same as everything "magically" coming together... which is definitely not what the bible proposes.
"... and play with your eternity.."
and you can stick that fear-mongering horse ***** right up your fat, ignorant ass. - suntzusputnik, on 06/07/2008, -11/+47it's as if they wish to defy common sense
- alpha88, on 06/07/2008, -2/+35Hey, don't make fun of me.
I believe strictly in Space Turtlism, and I found your comment deeply offensive. :( - quaxon, on 06/07/2008, -9/+41"Granted as my experiences have proven, most of you could care less about facts, you'd rather make up lies just to have stuff to argue over..."
"...what Christians like myself believe regarding creation..."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHA - luchid, on 06/07/2008, -2/+34Our "ultimate judge"? Is that the zombie guy who is its own son and a ghost at the same time? Sorry, I keep forgeting all the fairytale's characters' names.
- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -7/+39It really scares me to think that a lot of children will be raised to believe in ANY of this religious *****.
- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -2/+33While you waste your life fellating your imaginary friend, we'll be moving forward and enjoying the intensity of rational life.
- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -4/+35"we can't figure how you atheists can possibly believe we came from monkeys"
Atheists don't believe that. Are you really that stupid? In fact NO ONE who understands the theory of natural selection believes that silly nonsense.
Atheists don't believe in gods. That's what the word "atheist" means. - etherreal, on 06/07/2008, -4/+34Jesus was a man who died 2000 years ago. It is already too late to talk to him and have a "relationship". That is, unless you are into extreme necrophilia....
- thedenasaur, on 06/07/2008, -14/+441. Adam and Eve
2. Their children
3. Super massive incestual orgyfest!
4.???
5. 6 billion people! Profit! - aurix21, on 06/07/2008, -0/+30That paragraph isn't a reference to your mythology, but to Egyptian mythology, which was the majority religion in the region at that time.
- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -5/+33My favorite theory on the creation of the universe is that the Flying Spaghetti Monster made it 15 minutes ago, and planted all the memories of our lives in our minds.
Holds just as much water at the creation myth. - eltrev, on 06/07/2008, -6/+34um, except their parents who bring them there and who buy into this sickening fairy tale 100%.
- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -2/+30"Common ancestor" is a difficult concept for these imbeciles.
- Cayfox, on 06/07/2008, -1/+28We should be reminded at this point that pigs are friendly, intelligent creatures, and that pearls are lumps of calcified grit.
- headzoo, on 06/07/2008, -6/+33If dinosaurs and man were living side by side at one point, there should be massive amounts of ancient artwork depicting it. Yet there is none. So really, who do these people think they're fooling?
- Kyan, on 06/07/2008, -2/+28Now, that remark is ironic.
Did you just call yourself an *****? - relic180, on 06/07/2008, -3/+28If natural selection still existed the way it does in nature, they wouldn't.
- inactive, on 06/07/2008, -4/+29Hmm, That's only so far away from what is already believed by some.
- trogdoor, on 06/07/2008, -6/+30Digg me down all you want you ignorant darwinists but deep in your hearts you all know the truth:
There is only one Religion who's literal and inerrant teachings perfectly explain EVERY BIT OF EVIDENCE EVER FOUND BY SCIENCE, and it's not Darwinism ( and yes Evolution IS a Religion no matter how many times you deny it ). These so called scientists sit there staring at the evidence for creation all around them but are too afraid to acknowledge the brilliant design of all things. They are too busy worshipping Darwin to honestly look at their data because if they did they would not be able to help but to see the touch of his noodly appendage.
RAmen. - houndeyex, on 06/07/2008, -3/+27"When I was looking at this particular display, a mother was standing next to me with her child, no older than two years. She pointed at this gruesome miniature scene and told her impressionable spawn, in a lullaby-soft tone, "Look at all the sinners, they're all dying because they didn't obey God. Look how sad they are! They're all dying! But Noah is okay in the Ark because he accepted God in his heart." Right. Get that toddler primed for a lifetime of God-fearing guilt. That's what a two year old should be thinking about."
I know what my beliefs are, and that still scares me a little. - stargatesteve, on 06/07/2008, -12/+36Wow. I'm a christian, and this is really offensive to me.
How did such a museum even come into existence? Why, god, why? - kelmaster1, on 06/07/2008, -1/+24These people are so stupid that they don't even know that Europeans brought horses to North America...
- Murdats, on 06/07/2008, -3/+26"You wanna diss our beliefs and play with your eternity, that's your choice, but at very least quote our scriptures correctly.... don't make up crap just so you can get people all riled up over lies that you made up!"
"To be completely honest, we can't figure how you atheists can possibly believe we came from monkeys or that the earth is billions of years old...or that everything just magically came together by chance"
isnt that what you just did, or at least regurgitated the lies you have been taught. all of those are arguments are from reductio ad absurdum - relic180, on 06/07/2008, -3/+26Got to spout it where we can. The mainstream media certainly hasn't shown themselves to be objective.
And all of those links you posted, while they have the same overall subject, are different articles that are much older. Two of them aren't even up anymore. I for one had never heard of this until now. - suntzusputnik, on 06/07/2008, -15/+37through natural selection, retards like this shouldn't even exist.
- chrgrose, on 06/07/2008, -1/+23Your "god" gave me all the excuses I needed when he decided to make a universe which can be fully comprehended without him...as if he wanted it to look like he had nothing to do with it.
