New Boise creationist museum seeks to promote 'true science' by disputing evolution

A group of Idahoans dismayed by science education have opened the Northwest Science Museum offering a Biblical explanation of Earth's origins and disputing other explanations, such as evolution.

"We want to show a lot of science that's being censored and not presented to the public," said Doug Bennett, the museum's executive director.

The organizers have big plans. They formed a nonprofit, with one employee and several volunteers.

They're starting with a "Vision Center" — the current museum at 1835 Wildwood St., near Fairview Avenue and Five Mile Road, is in a small building next to a store that sells Magic the Gathering and other gaming supplies.

But their hope is to raise enough money through donations to build a full-scale museum, which will charge admission. (The Vision Center is free and open most weekday afternoons.)

"We're also looking at grants, scholarships, that sort of thing" to fund the full-scale museum, Bennett said.

The central premise of the museum is to counter "mainstream science" with exhibits about life on Earth as created by God in six days, about 6,000 years ago — not over a span of millions of years.

Bennett said the founders had been kicking around the idea for a creation museum for 10 or 20 years.

The organization is "just a group of us that have kind of the same idea of promoting true science," he said, adding that it's not affiliated with any church or religious group.

The museum cost about $10,000 to open, he said. Many of the items on display came from the founders' personal collections.

Bennett said the response opening week was encouraging and supportive, except for a flood of emails from people he described as atheists and naysayers.

Now that I found out that Noah brought baby dinosaurs on the Ark with him I've decided that all that stupid science stuff is bunk...I've decided that the great weight of evidence supports the idea that the entire world was made 6000 years ago, that Jesus rode a triceratops, and that Neil DeGrasse Tyson is indeed the antiChrist.

Three guesses how these dudes vote in elections...and the first two don't count.

o my god

They've got all the hell they need...being that moronic has got to come with some bad side effects occasionally.

Unfortunately they are probably blissful most the time.

Fish on...

Todd

I am all for bliss...I just feel sorry for everyone whose bliss comes from incomprehensible ignorance.

Actually I don't feel sorry for the ignorant fools...I feel sorry for the people with IQs of at least 76 who have to be around them.

Fish on...

Todd

isn't that the guy who wrote the science stuff in the republican platform?

LOL!

Like I said...if the ignorant fools would keep their ignorance to themselves they are welcome to all the bliss they can muster...but when they instead become voters and vote for candidates who are dumb as the day is long and base their platforms on outright foolishness then they are literally destroying the earth for the rest of us...and there is no reason to tolerate that, ever.

Fish on...

Todd

Says the guy who votes "The Economy" by voting GOP

Fish on...

Todd

How many of them would be rolling over in their graves if they saw the sad state of the GOP now?

Fish on...

P.S. Both questions have the exact same answer.

"Like I said...if the ignorant fools would keep their ignorance to themselves they are welcome to all the bliss they can muster...but when they instead become voters and vote for candidates who are dumb as the day is long and base their platforms on outright foolishness then they are literally destroying the earth for the rest of us...and there is no reason to tolerate that, ever."

However it has become apparent that they are not able to. My evidence is the current Administration.
