Ping for the list
But I thought that science should not be taught as dogma. That's what's happening here.
I'm guessing that it all started as the creationists say, then went on, as the evolutionists say...
Well, this is a big "DUH!"
Evolution has NOTHING TO SAY about the "creation" of life.
Gee, I always thought that creationists belived in the literal meaning of The Book of Genisis whereas MOST people who don't believe in Darwin's theory advocated Intelligent Design, but why bother making that distinction? They're all just a bunch of crazy Bible thumping fundamentalists who want to take us back to the 1700's, right?
although almost half believe that Darwin has been proved right, slightly more disagree.
Sure he was proven right! It's not like his finches have hybridized from 14 to 6, right? Oh, they did? Well, at least we have fosil evidence that traces man back to apes. We don't? Oh... Well, at least there's evidence of one species evolving from another and that by logical extention- oh, we don't have that either? Well, let's just shout them down then.

Surely even the evolutionists on this forum can agree that this is a waste of our tax dollars. If anything, we should all be against the evolution of big government.
Pretty funny, we usually only see this kind of behavior from evolutionist. Looks like the creationist are joining in the fun. Of course, this kind of behavior never solves anything, whether discussing science or sports.
That must be one huge building.
It doesn't matter how MUCH knowledge you have, it matters that the knowledge that you do have is correct :)!
I have a feeling they sought out this museum to harangue the staff. Every museum has its share of kook-visitors, pains in the asses who show up to complain about such things as idolatrous Catholic iconography, too many nudes, modern art, too many paintings by men, not enough art by women, art that is sexist, art that is homophobic, too much Eurocentric art, idolatrous Buddhist art.....ad nauseam
..... when she was confronted by a group of seven or eight people, creationists eager to challenge the museum exhibitions on evolution.They peppered Dr. Durkee with questions about everything from techniques for dating fossils to the second law of thermodynamics, their queries coming so thick and fast that she found it hard to reply.
After about 45 minutes, "I told them I needed to take a break," she recalled. "My mouth was dry."
Am I the only one who sees this behavior for what it is? This is a group of people intentionally entering a museum for the purpose of disrupting the presentation of scientific information that the disruptors find offensive. They aren't there to learn anything, and they surely aren't there to change the mind of the retired biologist.
What these cretins are doing is tantamount to a biology professor walking into the disruptor's church and tossing a turd in the Holy Water.
The proper response to these people is to throw them out of the museum, and arrest them for trespassing if they return. If they want to preach their insane version of science, let them build their own museum.... or better still, let them spew it in their church, from whence this abomination of science came.
Religious quacks no doubt.
Interesting.

First it is school books, then it will be the campaign to close museums, then universities, then the inquisition, where all professors/scientist and other "non" believers will have to answer for their "sins", those that fail to confess will be burned at the stake, those that do will be burned at the stake, for their own salvation. You must remember the earth is flat, the sun revolves around the earth and if you sail west you'll fall off the earth. Didn't we already go through this once?
