Idea for a museum?

Like maybe every room is one period filled with models (life sized?) of animals and plants that lived in that period. They start from pre-cambrian, then cambrian, oh I just walked into Ordovician, Silurian, Devon, Carboniferous, Permian (with it's extinction), Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous, Paleogene, Neogene - early humans and us.

It would be not just super fun but also give people an idea of how prehuman history unraveled, because it seems most of the people have all the periods just mashed together in their heads.

The Field Museum has a pretty good exhibit covering the history of life from the days before life (and some of the fossils that point towards different origins of life; whether the organic compounds came from underwater vents or from meteorites) all the way to Cro-Magnon man. And then, in the lobby, you can look at some taxidermied animals of more modern vintage.

The religitards would demand an Adam and Eve exhibit.

This would perhaps better work as computer simulation or even VR, and indeed there is a guy on the net that made Carboniferous forest simulator and it can be downloaded for free, but as these free things go it's not yet finished. And also it would be great if there were simulators for other eras/ eons.

Or when it comes to Catholics Adam and Steve since pope is so pro-gay.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
