Not that I agree with the message presented in this place, but if you are on someone else’s private property and you act like a jerk, why would it be surprising to find yourself to be removed from said place?

Well, Mr. Rosch, I *do* know the AAAS regularly mocks creationists and has in its charter, IIRC, a disparaging statement about creationism.

That being said, I think it a bit silly to be throwing atheists out of the museum if what was stated to have happened is actually what happened.

From the video:

"We were making fun of things and laughing"

I could see where that could be deemed to be inappropriate behavior in a museum.

For example doing that at the holocaust museum should not only get a person thrown out, it could also get his ass kicked.

Why anyone would surprised that an atheist who dislikes creationists, would be asked to leave a creation museum, especially when they come with over 200 other atheists, is beyond me.

Scotty beam me up, there does not seem to be any intelligent life down here.

Huh?

Should I believe anything this guy says?

Another problem: Right wingers showing up at Obamacare TownHall meetings and “misbehaving”.

Only two of the 285 atheists visiting the museum were asked to leave because of their behavior. There were over 2,000 people in the building at the time, so their group was not that big of a problem. FYI, the picture of the “riding dinosaur” printed in the article is not a part of the museum exhibitions, but is a special model in a children’s section set up for photos. There was a sign on it which said that it was only for children 12 and younger. That may explain why the group also conducted a mock Communion Service performed in front of the museum. Children will be children.

I live about 30 miles from the Creation Museum. The anti-creationists have been trying to disrupt the mission of the Creation Museum since before it was even built. All the while, the CM folks have remained good natured and cooperative in allowing the opponents to have their say. I’d say, on balance, these anti creation folks are a lot like the BO health care crowd. They really want to silence opposition to their view. I don’t know what happened to get them ejected but my guess is that they deeply deserved it.

So much for "Teaching the Controversy". Ha!

I wonder if they were able to take their picture next to the Flintstones exhibit before they were kicked out.
