Sorry to insult you, that was not my intent. I'm saying that an exhibition of "How Noah fed the animals" and "playing with the T-Rex" as displayed in their PR slide show are there to tell one story only. This biblical interpretation is their end. I welcome real, thoughtful discourse, Christian or otherwise. I'm suspect of fundamentalist script, particularly with plastic dinosaurs. If anyone is being insulting and I would add, threatening, to Christianity, its these fundamentalist indoctrinators .

And of course, since evolutionary origins and millions of years has been proven without a doubt, it's ok to indoctrinalize people in that.

Unfortunetly, that has yet to be proven without a doubt. So then it's ok to indoctrinalize people with something that hasn't been proven?

Isn't that what you're saying AiG is doing?

At least it has some credible evidence.

It's no indoctrination if you call it a theory.

The Bible—the ‘history book of the universe’—provides a reliable, eye-witness account of the beginning of all things, and can be trusted to tell the truth in all areas it touches on. Therefore, we are able to use it to help us make sense of this present world. When properly understood, the ‘evidence’ confirms the biblical account.

Um, yeah...
