Well - that all would apply, if they were at all rational and not a bunch of vindictive assholes. But if they were that - they probably wouldn't be creationists in the first place and there sure wouldn't be a creationist museum, which was clearly designed as a middle finger towards all scientifically savvy non-believers.
I still remember when Ben Stein's abortion of a movie, "Expelled" came out and they kicked PZ Myers - who appeared in the movie - out of the screening, before it even started. Like late-stage alcoholics on cheap booze, christians very easily get drunk on power - however laughably small amount of it they may have - and disregard the consequences...
I mean - they would probably simply make a statement, accusing atheists of disruptive behavior, or whatever. And if their target audience accepts dinos with saddles - why wouldn't they believe in nasty atheist hooligans invading their bullsh*t museum with intent to cause mischief?
