Well today I had quite a laugh.... but when I really think about I get sort of disturbed because... this is like, the biggest SCAM of all time. It is so simple it is just ridiculous.

There is now a new "MUSEUM" to advocate Christianity. Okay, fine.... even though "museums" are supposed to help preserve history, not stories. Whatever. Fine. But the FUNNY thing is that they built this $27 MILLION "museum" (wow, that's a lot of money; I'm sure that there was no better way to spend all that money for the good of humankind) largely to "prove" (I think that the better term would be to "ludicrously insist") that evolution is all a silly idea, that divine creation is the only truth-- and one of the MAIN issues is-- dinosaurs. The world of Science and Reason say that dinosaurs ENDED their several hundred million year reign tens of millions of years ago. BUT according to Christianity, that is simply not true. Yes, they have no explanation for the FACTS involved that make up REALITY but they still insist, arms crossed over chests and feet stamped firmly into the ground, that the Earth, humans, and dinosaurs were all brought into existence a mere 6000 years ago. What I cannot help think of are all the "Christian" friends I have who I consider to be very intelligent.... but... when it comes to this..... Which does everyone really believe? Science or faith? And is it all because they were raised that way? It certainly looks like it and I struggle with that. Do all these people REALLY believe that "God" planted phony evidence as a "test" or something and the Earth is REALLY only 6000 years old? Do people REALLY believe that the Earth is that new because a pastor or a preacher or a Reverend TELLS them so? THAT is the big selling point to the idea-- someone just telling masses of people that and since it seems morally tidy and easier than being independently ethical, people just GO WITH IT??? Because you cannot be a steadfast, faithful Christian if you don't beleive it ALL.... which to me is an awfully mean way of putting a lot of nice people who are just looking for answers into the postition of having only two options: be faithful or be reasonable. You cannot "in good faith" be both.....

For years now I have viewed Fox as one of my favorite networks. Honestly besides the Sopranos and the Wire (dramas on HBO), I think some of the best written comedies are found on the Fox network. However, I never thought the news shows could have even better writers. Anyone who watches FOX to get quality news should start doing their own research. Bet a lot of you thought name calling was coming at the end of that last sentence. Sorry to disappoint you. I am just asking the American people who do get their world news from Fox or TV evangelists please read. The internet offers many tools of finding information on any topic of today. I end this plea with five questions that I would like any body who reads this to ask themselves.
