Creationist museums the most powerful tool in combating creationism
I believe much more of this type of false witness would serve to humiliate, degrade, and ultimately marginalize Christianity in any nation...
I think that the publicity linked to creationism museums would serve as a powerful tool in the fight against creationism. The more exposure that creationism gets, the worse it is going to look.
Let's have creationism museums everywhere.

Dinosaurs and People etc.
Likely there's some pretty convincing stuff going to show up in these museums...
Maybe.
But some pretty absurd stuff is also going to show up. You think that a scene showing dinosaurs and humans living together is going to get attention? I think it will, and the most prominent evidence of said having happened may well be The Flintstones and BC cartoons.
Visiting these museums will be looked upon as something akin to visiting Fantasyland at Disneyland.

Re: Where to discuss?
I prefer to have more flexibility to look at all evidences, including things this forum does not consider science.
.
I'm now not even sure who is defending what side of the argument.
A scientific museum deals with matters of science. Maybe you should bring your "things that this forum does not consider science" to a new "Proposed New Topics" topic.
Again, I'm not focusing this on just Keys.

The web site of the museum in question
I haven't followed this topic real closely, but my impression is that damn little specific information about the museum has been presented.
I never even noticed mention of the museum's website, which is bvcsm – My WordPress Blog.
I've also just started the "Links and Information" topic Creation Science Museums. That site contains many links to things creation museum.
