Didn't you know? Kids had pet dinosaurs!

Lately I've been reading and watching a lot of BBC news. During high school I used to read the BBC news online all the time, but with the transition to uni, and then to work, I sort of fell out of the loop and really only had time for the CBC [which still warrants a swoon]. My sister has since gotten me back in the groove of reading it. I'd like to think of it as a cleansing of the mind after having spent so many weeks in the US for work. The CBC is improving the amount of their international content, especially with shows like Around the World-- far better than any international content that American stations claim to have. The "if it doesn't involve us, it's not world news" mentality is borderline brainwashing, albeit, there are some stations and papers which give Americans a very very good view of the world.

So the point of this blog entry is about something I watched on the BBC website: Kentucky's Creation Museum. I had heard of this place before, but it was my first look inside at the exhibits of the museum. I respect all faiths, however, I get quite confused when these very devout individuals or organizations twist history and science to back up what they believe to be true, and in many ways is sooooo not the truth.

For example, the curator's firm belief that homo sapiens did in fact co exist with dinosaurs. Little did I know that children would frolic with raptors and other reptiles with very sharp teeth. All the power to scientists and Christians who are protesting against this museum.
