So you bring up an interesting point: "live and let live" mantra as long as it doesn't hurt anyone. This issue of Creationism promoting "modern Homo sapiens sapiens living at the same time as dinosaurs" because the interpretation of the "Good Books" tells them so vs. Evolution saying that based on DNA evidence that anything that lived in the Pre-Cambian to Jurassic cannot confer "MODERN Homo sapiens sapiens including the division of Great Apes is just absoluting schizophrenic, delusional and hallucinogenic. I can continue with the DSMR-V differential diagnosis...

So, this issue is not just live and let live and not hurting anyone. Yes, thinking your own thoughts is cool. But promotion with a animatronic display with 3D computer animation to dictate "thought controlled truth"--that action goes way beyond "not hurting anyone". It borderlines unethical collusion, sedition and subversion.

When will it stop? Science may not have all the answers, but there are just some things you do not question if it is right: like Oxygen, Sunlight and the Earth rotating...
