How sad. Nice displays but such garbled science.
PS I'm quite relaxed about the creation museum - obviously nobody visits it. The clue is right there in post #8: "everything worked". So they've obviously never had a single school party through their door. QED
I live about 3-4 miles from one. Never been.When cycling through that area a few weeks ago, I noticed 'Diggerland' ahead on the map, and said to myself something like "Haha, what's that? A theme park devoted to mechanical diggers? Hahaha. No, seriously, I wonder what that is."
Then, when I went right past the place, that was precisely what it was.
Here's a great photo gallery of the exhibits in the Portsmouth Creation Museum:

Are you sure that's the Portsmouth Creation Museum? It sure looks like Ken Ham's folly in Kentucky.

I tend to speculate further that the museum itself is just a form of advertising to get people into the shop. That way, in this free museum, whether you are a believer, curious, or science-based visitor, you pay them something, if for nothing else, the memory.
Weird. The first I'd heard of this place was today at lunch when a friend mentioned it. He lived in Portsmouth for a few years and was disappointed the expo was shut (he wanted the laughs).
This remarkable coincidence must prove something![]()

There's always:

My friend's 3 year old tried to engage them in a discussion about evolution but they refused![]()
Genesis Expo has reopened. Not a lot has changed - there's an extra floor with some fossils, a few signs and some leaflets for sale. Same high quality arguments for creationism.
