So I guess NASA can't count on your millions of dollars in donations anymore and will have to shut its doors?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
-Stephen Jay Gould

Because expanding on our knowledge and technological abilities is exactly the same as a naff museum that promotes a laughable lie.

Creationist museum... isn't that some kind of oxymoron? Unless it's just a series of stupid people who believe anything in glass boxes.
And creationist research? I dread to think what that entails. The fact anyone gets paid for any of this is nothing short of morally reprehensible.

Uh huh....
Hopefully you'll never have to sully yourself with a CAT scan, Ultrasound, or MRI...or insulate a home, or use a smoke detector, a water purifier, corldess tools. Don't have a child that needs braces or glasses - and certainly don't take their temperature. No sleeping on a comfy memory foam bed....no satellite tv (or satellite anything). Put down your phone and take your hands off the keyboard. All wastes of time.

(they've been putting out a pub since the 70's detailing spinoff projects - NASA has their fingers in all your household stuffs C4, I guess it's too much to ask for you to be grateful though, eh?)
