A Christian organization called "Answers in Genesis" intends to open the "Creation Museum" to the public in early 2007, near the city of Cincinnati in Ohio
The Museum of Natural History in New York threw itself into one of the biggest political upheavals in American society yesterday when it opened the largest ever exhibition on Charles Darwin. The hundreds of exhibits in the exhibition include notebooks in which he first wrote down the idea of evolution, fossils he collected, his collections of beetles, butterflies and flies, his armchair, gun, walking stick and hat, accessories he used during his research such as a compass, magnifying glass and microscope, and - also his Bible.
"We will take the visitor step by step," says Dr. Niles Eldridge, the curator of the exhibition, "and lead him through the findings that convinced Darwin that the organisms in nature, including man, were not created as they are, but are the result of development and evolution. I believe that whoever visits the exhibition and learns what we will present in it will be convinced that Darwin was right and will understand his greatness."
The article also stated that a Christian organization called "Answers in Genesis" intends to open the "Creation Museum" to the public in early 2007, near the city of Cincinnati in Ohio. 25 million dollars from donations are invested in the museum and according to the president of the organization, Kenneth Hamm, the investment is expected to increase to 50 million dollars and more. "We have a great team of professionals, from Universal Studios, who will present the stories of creation and the Bible in the most impressive way," Ham says.
According to the organization, humans and dinosaurs who lived together in the Garden of Eden will be displayed in their museum. They are not bothered by the fact that there is no evidence that dinosaurs existed 6,000 years ago nor 4,500 years ago - the period to which the museum attributes Noah's flood.
