You've seriously gotta be kidding me - A "Creation" museum?

You're lucky. I was raised in a church that very, very much believes in creationism. And have encountered people at every level in my education/life in general who have very firmly believed in creation science (we had the kid in our earth science class lecture, at a major tech university, that tried to argue with the professor on this stuff - wth??).

I'll second the "you're lucky" statement - I live a couple blocks away from the "Prayer Sanctuary" (a 'sub-church' of the "Prayer Palace") one of only two 'mega-churches' in Ontario (the other being the Palace one). The 'churches' are hardcore Southern Baptists and very evangelical, I get more doorstep 'witnessing' from them than the Jehova's Witnesses down the street. So I get the standard from them: Bible is literal truth, Creationism, Revelations coming true, condemnation of modern society, all other faiths are bad, Catholics aren't 'christian', Jack Chick tracts/pamphlets, etc. ~ very, very low on the list of folks I like to see darkening my doorstep.

Jack Chick: the first time I saw some, I didn't think it was real. I thought it had to be a parody. Nope.

Look! Now they are available in Spanish: http://www.chick.com/default.asp

Oh no, not Jack Chick. That guy's CRAZY.

Apparently Catholics worship a Babylonian goddess, Dungeons and Dragons is the stairway to hell, Halloween will send you to hell, oh yes, and the Vatican is sponsoring Nazism and encouraging violence against the Jews.

Well it looks like the Canadian fundies/rednecks/inbreds have built themselves a Creation Museum up here as well... no surprises that it's in Alberta..

So people who believe in a literal interpretation of the Genesis account are rednecks and inbreds...wow.
