Never Underestimate the True Believer

Sigh.

Creation Museum surpasses attendance expectations. Halfway into its first year, the Creation Museum is on the verge of surpassing its projected year-long attendance goal of 250,000. Officials now expect nearly 400,000 people to pass through the doors by year’s end. At least 10,000 people have paid for year-round access. The museum argues that the Bible’s book of Genesis is exactly how the world was formed — in six 24-hour days. Specifically, the museum’s exhibits claim that the Earth is 6,000 years old, not billions; that dinosaurs and man coexisted; and that geologic features such as the Grand Canyon and fossils were created in a global flood provoked by Adam’s and Eve’s original sin. Polls show that many Americans already agree with some of the museum’s claims. A 2006 CBS poll found that 51% of Americans think God created humans in their present form. Just 15% said that humans evolved and God was not involved.

P.S.: Of course, you all know about GodTube, the Christian YouTube.
