the guardian reports (saw the story first on slashdot) about a new museum in ohio that will promote creationism.

it is being built with an investment of $25M (all but $3M already raised from donations), and should open over the next few months.

this is quite an investment to promote ignorance.

the museum claim to show both sides of the argument (i.e. evil evolution vs. enlightend creationism) in a fair and balanced way (very much like fox is fair and balanced), but employees are required to sign that they believe earth was created in 7 days..

will be interesting to visit, will probably be more freakish than visiting the mormon temple in utah.
