They're taking back the dinosaurs -- whatever shall we do...?
I was tempted to put this in humor 'cause it's really one of Ham's better jests. He should'a saved it for next April.
quote:
We've invaded their “temple”!
Humanists are on notice: we're taking dinosaurs back!
by Ken Ham, president AiG–USA
First published in
Answers Update–USA
May 2005
Almost every time there's news in the secular press about Answers in Genesis, the reporter will mock the fact that we believe dinosaurs and humans have lived at the same time.
Indeed, evolutionists absolutely hate it when AiG uses dinosaurs to proclaim the falsity of the idea of evolution and the truth of the history in Genesis. Nearly every secular reporter who visits the AiG Creation Museum (under construction west of Cincinnati) seems perplexed as to why we're including dinosaurs—and they often express amazement that we would even dare to do so. And so when their TV or newspaper report comes out, there it is again: a mocking statement about dinosaurs and humans together.
Children and adults alike are fascinated by these creatures. Unfortunately, most people equate dinosaurs with millions of years and the evolution belief system. Dinosaurs have become almost icons for evolutionary teaching—they're treated as sacred “gods” that belong only to evolutionists for their purpose of indoctrinating generations in secular humanism.
I really don't understand how they can such statments; or any statements, for that matter. They have no important laboratories nor do any field work. They have yet to describe a new species nor have they come up with any new data concerning known species. Virtually all of their publishings are either fanciful imaginings or outright lies, and yet they put forth claims that not even P.T. Barnham would have the gall to propose.
Sometimes, reading Ham and the nonsense on the AiG site, I wonder if Owlsey's acid isn't making a comeback.

Ah, this explains it:To the humanists: we have invaded your evolutionary temples, and we have gone into your “holy of holies.” We have captured the dinosaurs … and we're taking them back to give them their rightful place in history! They don't belong to you! Ham and company envision themselves as modern-day Crusaders, with "evolutionists" playing the role of the savage arabs.
Which is funny since isn't it the case that the original Crusaders were Papists, to a man? When the Evangelicals align themselves with the Catholics, as they did with Terri Schiavo, you know the world is going to Hell. |

| Rubbish as usual. Bizarre logic, scripture, and the unfounded belief that evolution is a religion. Same thing every time they say anything related to this. The sad thing is they think this is somehow superior to actual science. |

I find it quite ironic that the result of evolution is what this guy is talking about, modern reptiles. Of course I didn't see birds mentioned because he still has the grade school image of all dinosaurs as reptiles.
The sad part though, is how many people are so easily convinced there is real evidence backing this crap up. |
