Well, knowing how much the church loves to rob you blind, they'd probably give you overpriced rubble from a mosque they just blew up.

RE: the creationist museum :)
My fundy parents want to go to this "museum" so badly. They've been talking about for years gathering up our whole family and driving out to it (it'd be a very long drive) as if on some sort of modern day holy land pilgrimage.

I'd like to take this opportunity to point out to you that arson is wrong, and a serious crime.

You should go with them and point out all the bad science that is on display. Of course, the only downside is that you'd be giving money to the twits who run the museum so you could get in.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

It's unimaginably gorgeous here, literally spilling over with history and culture, and if you need an excuse to visit go ahead and use the Creation Museum, but do yourself a favor......stop at the real attractions on your way in.

I'll be visiting in two months. Not sure if I want to visit the Horse Shit Museum, though. Well, okay, I totally want to go, but I totally do not want to give them $60.

Um, thanks I guess. o_O

I agree! I'd love to go inside and laugh at all the bullshit that is on display. It would be great to get dirty looks from the ignorant dopes who buy this crap! But I would not want to give these cretins any money.

If I lived in the area and could raise the money, I would put up a billboard just down the road from the place. It would say something like "FOR INCREDIBLE STUPIDITY TURN RIGHT 1 MILE".

You have my condolences.
