Yeah, discussing the museum itself was a mistake and one I've avoided in all subsequent posts on the subject. In the future I promise to focus on what I can see!

As for why bother discussing it in the first place, you have to remember Answers in Genesis isn't the only party involved. There are countless people on both sides of the debate trying to learn more about these topics and by putting the information out there hopefully I can inform them and maybe even persuade some of the less dogmatic ones. Of the people I've encountered through posts like this, many times I've changed their mind on something; sometimes even turned them away altogether.

The trick is not to think of it as an attempt to convince AiG; but to use the debate as an excuse to put resources out there which may be useful to others interested in AiG

Fair enough, you are a more patient person than I am.
