Darwin Exhibit at American Museum of Natural History
2005-11-22
The American Museum of Natural History is hosting an exhibit about Darwin, the father of modern biology. The exhibit is explained on the website. The scary thing about it is that no corporate sponsors were found to support the exhibit, because they are all scared of stepping on the toes of the delusional “Intelligent Design” supporters in the US. Even after the Pope declared that Genesis is allegorical and that Evolution is more than a hypothesis, but is completely compatible with Christianity, the American Kook Societies still insist on taking the Bible literally.
People waste too much effort on trying to find far-fetched mystical explanations for things that are already adequately explained by people who open their eyes, look, and use reason. I guess it’s not suprising that a CBS poll found that some 51% of Americans believe in creationism rather than evolution. They all still think their government is democratically elected and has their best interests at heart too.
