    The Creation Museum's exhibit staff seem eager to substitute fictional perfection when the realism of truth isn't conveniently tasteful. A Middle-Eastern man with no chest (or back) hair?

The pictures of the models of Adam and Eve show pretty clearly what the Creation Museum is truly about - willful disregard of the complexity of science and our world in a desperate attempt to maintain an illusion that can be fed as pablum to those who can't be troubled to learn the truth.

    2) "Bite Me. Beat Me. Whip Me. Make Me Vote Republican"

    GOP: "Your head and your heart say 'No', but your vote says 'GOP'"
