I think I will open my own museum about what I think happened at the beginning of civilization. Apparently I only need the very minimal of historical records to do so.

You also need financial backing unless you want to open your museum on the main drag in Pigeon Forge, TN. |

More than a third of highschool student think we were made as we are now. Less than one-fifth of high school students accept the theory of evolution in this poll... I have heard of this museum. I have met people that believe this. Such people really do not believe the evidence for evolution is solid. They view it as conjecture. It is expectable that some one would eventually put together this kind of a museum, it is surprising that it has taken this long for it to happen. |

Not much science behind creation. I expect it will be very small and compact. Will it have wheels ?

It's probably a walk through display of various scenes from the Bible. MODERATOR COMMENT Please REFRAIN from knee-jerk statements against a religious texts. This is NOT the Politics forum. END OF MODERATOR COMMENT |

Noah, I must be misunderstanding you here. We have more extant manuscript evidence for the Bible than we have for any other ancient writing. Old Testament documents: We have approximately 1,000 manuscripts of the Masoretic text, around 10,000 of the Latin Vulgate, and 520 more after the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls (ca. 1947-48). New Testament documents: There are more than 5,300 documented copies or fragments (compared to Homer's Iliad with less than 650, the most famous of the ancient Greek books) of the New Testament. And if we include New Testament manuscripts which were copied into other (non-Greek) languages, the total is roughly 24,000 manuscripts worldwide. Additionally, we have New Testament manuscripts within 25-50 years of the original, whereas other books of antiquity come no closer than 500 years. |

^^^ Noah, You have no way of knowing this. I admit I do not either. However, the manuscript evidence is there to examine, as it is with any other discipline. |

Well, if it was in Kentucky, we must assume that they are abunch of ignorant hill-billies, that would be the only 'non-judgemental' thing to do.

It may have something to do with the poll results. MODERATOR COMMENT Please REFRAIN from knee-jerk statements against a certain region of the country. This is NOT the Politics forum. END OF MODERATOR COMMENT |

Just where the hell did this whole "humans and dinosaurs" thing come from anyway ? Actually, I think that it was a common public conception of history before religion even said anything about it.
