The Creation Museum in Petersburg, Kentucky launched a special promotional deal with local Cincinnati Zoo which included an one day pass to both attractions for the combined price of $25.95 adult price thus saving a total of nine dollars. The promotion was meant to run from December 2nd to the 11th The zoo previously had a similar deal with the Cincinnati Reds, so the Creation Museum was not the first.
However, the deal did not go smoothly. After a mere 60 hours into the deal the zoo called it off. The reasoning? The massive amount of phone calls, e-mails, and in person complaints the zoo was receiving from Atheists/Freethinkers/Agnostics/Brights etc. The most traffic was received from a specific blog ran by the evolutionary biologist PZ Meyers. In this aggressive blog, Meyers goes as far as telling people to ruin this promotional deal. I just sit and wonder how anyone could do something like this. I understand completely that Creationism and Evolution don't get along to well, but to act so irrational and immature about it does not show any thought before action. I am certain that the only reason this had any objections at all by the evolutionary community (or more specifically Mr. Meyers and regardless that there are many other private organizations ran without state help in Cincinnati) is because is directly challenges the beliefs of so called "Evolution".
This brings me to my next point. So what? So what if there is a deal. Only the quote on quote "intelligent" humans are capable of believing Evolution, then why are they worried about the museum being open and having a deal with the zoo? I believe Evolutionists are scared of the open minded people out there. If they can eliminate the opposition, they will have no problems. Don't believe what you read out there. Evolution is not fact. It is a mere propaganda ploy. The evidence is not "solid" (as many like to claim, mainly out of their indoctrination through public schools) and what evidence they claim they have, upon closer examination, works just as well, if not better in Creationism model. The Creation Museum in Kentucky is a great way to expose people to a fair presentation of all the facts out there, not just the evolutionary biased ones.
Through all the absurd hatred for people who don't believe in Evolution, is the amount of attention Mr. Meyers himself dedicates his blog to attacking Christian beliefs. Instead of giving articles and discussion on mainly, atheistic items, he often discusses, links and gives decent publicity to Creationism articles/links/discussions. Regardless if he is attacking/mocking the articles, he is giving them much attention that could easily persuade the weak minded evolutionists just through exposure to outside facts! The most amazing thing I have witnessed on the site, however, is these secular groups across the nation wanting to make a trip to the Creation Museum. Of course they have reasons as they want to criticize, mock the museum and to "know their enemy", but they must first pay the museum for a ticket to do so. According to their logic, they are paying their "enemy" to learn about stuff that can easily be done through the internet, or better yet, go to a museum that explicitly teaches about evolution, make a video of it, and still support the museum through purchasing the ticket. Hey, go right ahead. Make all the "field trips" you want. It is not helping the "evolutionistic movement." Here is the video that the SAIU (Secular Alliance of Indiana University) made on their trip to the Creationism Museum.
The worst part of this all is how the scientific community just can't understand the massive numbers the museum is bringing in. "What is wrong with these people? Don't they understand the light? They must understand how wrong they are!" The problem is, these people are making the decision even though they are (for the most part) raised in public schools that bombard students with evolutionary propaganda and the intense push for a god-less society. Maybe evolution isn't teaching this "rock hard solid facts" well enough. Maybe they need to bombard people 24/7 with more propaganda? Or maybe they need to realize that people are intelligent, and they do make reasons based upon reason. All this hate for museum is stemmed from anger that "Us Creationists just don't see it their way". It sounds more like religion than science to me.
Oh well. In an attempt to ridicule and hurt the Creation Museum, PZ Meyers has elevated the museum to a publicity level it would never have achieved without his help. A plan that backfired and a perfect example of God in work. Evolutionists can keep on trying to drive the point "there is no God, blah, blah, blah" but they must realize they are in a very difficult battle. People have been trying to do the same thing for 6000 years now, but guess what? The Bible is still around. Christianity is still around. People are believing what the Bible teaches. Psalms 119:160. Atheists in general are a very small group with a loud voice. In due time they will be quelled. Hopefully before they have judgment before our Creator. It is our mission as Christians to keep them in prayer and hopefully we can facilitate the change.
God Bless,

Yes, evolutionists are afraid of open-minded people, not just open-mindedness, but people who will actually stop and think...becuase if you think about it, nothing creates itself, something never pops into existence from nothing, and so they fear that people will wake up to thier deceptive, white-coat, degree-lined wall rhetoric.
BTW, have you been to the museum? I went opening summer. I can send you pics if you'd like.
Exactly! I don't know how to stress it enough, but where does the very first evolving particle come from? Divine intervention (God)? And if they are willing to admit there is divine interaction, then why couldn't this all powerful been create the entire universe?
What they show is a sleazy way to rule out God. A way that won't stand much ground against someone who is intelligent enough to do a little open minded research and isn't afraid to go against a grain.
I would love to see those photos actually. This year I actually wasn't able to go to the museum because I need a bike for college and such and the bike isn't exactly cheap (508$). So any pictures would be great.
JC Lamont has no clue what she is talking about. Where does the Theory of Evolution state something came from nothing? Where?
Eric... okay... what exact parts of evolution are missing "facts", which is a claim you constantly make in this blog.
Furthermore, where does the Theory of Evolution say there is no God? That's how you present this information and I would like answers as to why you have drawn these conclusions.
