SAIU,
Nice video, I really enjoyed it. Coincidentally, the Ohio University Skeptic Society took a trip to the creation museum exactly one week before you guys did – and we had a blast as well. Although we too felt a little dirty, it was cool. Fortunately we were able to drive across the river to Cincinnati to go the science and natural history museum to cleanse ourselves. Did anyone see the snake demo?

We got a mention in Pharyngula!
Great video.
Cra-azy ‘museum’ indeed.
Like many creationists, they didn’t have the courtesy to link us, but Answers in Genesis apparently heard about our trip. (Not a surprise considering we registered with our real name and linked to them.)
We’re apparently good atheists (if a little too evangelical) or at least well-behaved.
Hooray for IU students! Thanks SO much for doing this…you have gone WAY beyond what any professional news organization has done in its reporting on this pseudo-museum.
Signed

[...] Secular Alliance of Indiana University has taken one for the team and brought back some amusing video for us. Their video shows a museum full of hilarious exhibits of mind boggling nonsense, all [...]
That museum tour by the IU students was about the most childish thing I have ever seen. It just harks back to the infantile worldview being expressed by the modern day intelligentia.
Skepticism and humanism are not new. I much prefer the discussions we have on Mill Ave to the ridiculous comments on this video where everyone was trying to out-cute the last speaker.
It should be obvious to any sane observer that the world is getting more dangerous especially in this recent past where “professing themselves to be wise, they have become fools.” God is very patient in allowing our foolishness for the time being. JimSr.
I wouldn’t pay to see this example of nonscience. Why was this sort of thinking naturally selected?
The turtle and fish seem indignant to be there.
It’s places like that which make me consider atheism as a viable option. I do believe in God, but I have such a hard time relating to the culture of these anti-science people.
I love how no one rebuted anything. You all have top notch ridiculing skills though. It was entertaining. Thanks for publicizing this. Maybe more people will go and see it now. God bless you.
It boggles the mind. completely and totally. words cannot describe the utter nonsense of a great majority of humans. “Hey let’s explain something unexplainable with something eve MORE unexplainable”… nonsense.
