This gets me, not because they are trying to get them while they are young, but they are doing it in a museum that has the facts and saying they are a lie.

quote: At a large, colorful panel along a wall, Carter reads aloud from a passage describing the disappearance of dinosaurs from the Earth about 65 million years ago. He and some of the older students exchange knowing smiles at the timeline, which contradicts their interpretation of the Bible suggesting a 6,000-year-old planet.
"Did man and dinosaurs live together?" Carter asks.
A timid yes comes from the students.
"How do we know that to be true?" Carter says.
There's a long pause.
"What day did God create dinosaurs on?" he continues.
"Six," says a chorus of voices.
"What day did God create man on?"
"Six."
"Did man and dinosaurs live together?"
"Yes," the students say.
Mission accomplished for Carter, who has been leading such tours since 1988. He and the other guides counter secular interpretations of history, nature and the origin of life with their own literal reading of the Bible.

It makes sense if you make yourself believe, like Bill, the lie that evolution is a philosophy that says that god doesn't exist and there is no morality and people should just do whatever you want.
They promote and believe this lie because evolution directly contradicts the literal words in their sacred religious texts, and rather than coming to grips with that reality, they promote a falsity (which is in direct contradiction to other parts of their sacred texts, but hey, all's fair in love and war, right?) |
