Scalzi’s Creation Museum report

cm2.jpg

Author and blogger John Scalzi has posted an amusing report of his visit to the Creation Museum.

Some time ago he said that he’d visit the museum, which was built near his home, on the condition that his readers donated $250, with the added incentive that any extra money would be given to Americans United for the Separation of Church and State. His readers came through and donated over $5000.

So he went, took a bunch of pictures, and posted a very thorough report.

An excerpt:

Here’s how to understand the Creation Museum:

Imagine, if you will, a load of horseshit. And we’re not talking just your average load of horseshit; no, we’re talking colossal load of horsehit. An epic load of horseshit. The kind of load of horseshit that has accreted over decades and has developed its own sort of ecosystem, from the flyblown chunks at the perimeter, down into the heated and decomposing center, generating explosive levels of methane as bacteria feast merrily on vintage, liquified crap. This is a Herculean load of horseshit, friends, the likes of which has not been seen since the days of Augeas.

    Man, where is everybody? A quiet day. The Americans may be passed out from Thanksgiving dinner, but what about everyone else? Did they just say “screw it,” and played hooky today? (That’s what I should’ve done.)

    I assume some people are pretending to work, others are in class/lectures, and everyone else is waiting for someone else to say something, either that or a new hate mail…

    @storm petrel–I’m doing the whole pretending to work thing by having work open and clicking on it whenever the boss-man comes in. Don’t know if it’s working, but nobody’s said anything yet.

    I am here, I just don’t have anyone to talk to…even my man is busy…

    @Thorn–wow, their chart is on par with our pirates/global warming one. Whuddathunkit? I always knew there was a reason I despised Paris Hilton.

Purchase the Gospel

An elaborate spoof on Intelligent Design, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is neither too elaborate nor too spoofy to succeed in nailing the fallacies of ID. It's even wackier than Jonathan Swift's suggestion that the Irish eat their children as a way to keep them from being a burden, and it may offend just as many people, but Henderson, described elsewhere as a 25-year-old "out-of-work physics major," puts satire to the same serious use that Swift did. Oh, yes, it is very funny. -- Scientific American
