Do you really want the powers that be, i.e. government dictating ideology and what the officials of government deem to be true and false, outlawing what they regard as false?
No, do you? What if we changed the word government to fundamentalist Christian authorities? I've noticed that many of the people you have supported in the past talk like Dominionists, and that is exactly what they want.
This is what happened in the dark ages when the popes and bishops of Vatican City pretty much dictated to the civilized world what truth is, murdering discenters.
The Chinese, Indian, and Arabic people might object to you calling Europeans the only civilized people during the dark ages. Please read more history.
The same can be said of over 20 Islamic totalitarian regimes today where holocausts are ongoing.
Jews would prefer that you use the term genocide to reflect a massacre of a group of people based upon religion, ethnicity, politics or tribal affiliation. The word Holocaust should be reserved for the extermination of Jews by the Nazis during WWII.
You sure make it hard to agree with even when right when you are so loose with your historic facts and so insensitive to other racial and religious groups.

Re: Standard Of Evidence
I've shown how likely Ham is not deliberately lying, regardless of how you, I, Jar or anyone else regards what he thinks about the way things are. I've also documented that the kiddies have been deceived for over 3 decades by secularist museums and the science community which bought into the empirically proven case of fraud. Regardless of how long ago all that was or who initiated the fraud, the kiddies and the rest of the world were deceived by a lie which did not originate by nor was propagated by the Biblical creationist community.
It is possible, however unlikely that Ham is not deliberately lying, he could be such a fanatic that he has lost any touch with reality and therefore could be similar to another person whose conclusions you have defended in the past, Wyatt. IIRC you have defended Wyatt's ark but not so much the blood of Christ, or tabernacle discoveries. Would you be willing to differentiate between Ham's cult-induced insanities in the same manner?
Also, as I'm sure has been repeatedly pointed out, Piltdown Man was not accepted by much of the scientific community and was eventually discovered as a fraud by the scientific community. Why do some in the YEC, or YCC community still demand such frauds as the Paluxy River tracks are fact after they have been renounced by both AIG and the research arm of the founders of modern young earth creationism, the Seventh Day Adventist Church?
The only way that modern museums could be the equivalent of Ham's creation museum is if they were still perpetrating a fraud after being denounced by their own, something neither Wyatt nor Ham, or their supporters are evidently prepared to do despite any Biblical commandments to the contrary.

LOL! The Jews are back in Israel, the world is emerging into a cashless monetary system, the weather is on the rampage, homosexuality is on the increase, Islam is emerging as the dominant global threat, children disobedient to parents, women are becoming our rulers, disasters are increasing at an alarming rate, the seas are raging, Biblical apostacy is the norm, travel is ever on the increase and at faster speed, the nations are being drawn into the Mid-East, fires on the increase, knowledge on the increase, hatred of Christianity and Bible significant, Israel surrounded with hostile nations, et al et al et al.
The weather is on the rampage, homosexuality is on the increase, children are suddenly disobedient, disasters are increasing at an alarming rate, women are becoming our rulers, Biblical apostasy is the norm, fires on the increase, et al?
Go ahead start another thread and we can see what the extent of your knowledge of history, and that of your own professed religion, is again for the umpteenth time.

Re: Another tour of Ken's Creation Museum

Pretty thorough with lots of photographs. In 6 parts, with part 1 starting at MochaHost | 404 - Resource not found
Just discovered through a Panda's Thumb post and went through the tour right before checking the posts here.
I agree it is quite thorough. Good photos and observation.
Note: Subsequent additions to the tour are in small type at the end of each part. May be a little hard to find if expecting some giant flashing arrow.
Edited by anglagard, : Add note.

The idea of the sacred is quite simply one of the most conservative notions in any culture, because it seeks to turn other ideas - uncertainty, progress, change - into crimes.

This rudderless world is not shaped by vague metaphysical forces. It is not God who kills the children. Not fate that butchers them or destiny that feeds them to the dogs. It’s us. Only us. - the character Rorschach in Watchmen
