Is it apporpriate for an Arictecture Magazine to go on a rant about Biblical faith around the creation museum?

see New museums: The good, the bad, and the horribly misguided

my my my an architecture journal ridicules religous beliefs and never comments on the creative architecture of the place. If you think the editor of the journal was remiss in publishing this should you drop him a note?

Thank you for posting this. I followed your link and read the article. I find this particular criticism false, outlandish, inappropriate and horribly misguided.


There is NOTHING in the article about the ARCHITECTURE of the Creation Museum.





My family and I have visited the Creation Museum and found it to be highly educational and entertaining. We will return AND SPEND MONEY THERE. The displays are NOT of ';cartoonish dinosaurs and humanoids';. This particular statement is patently false. Why would there be ';humanoids'; in the CREATION Museum? Such a display would be against their reason for existence.





It is obvious that whoever wrote the article hasn't been in the door of the place; and it begs the question of what else in their publication are they patently false with?





Yes, I will happily contact the editor of this trash.





Edit: The owner of the Creation Museum has made a reponse to this you may read here: http://blogs.answersingenesis.org/around…Is it apporpriate for an Arictecture Magazine to go on a rant about Biblical faith around the creation museum?
It does seem a little inappropriate considering the subject of the magazine and the subject of the museum....





.... but shouldn't this tell you something? Even architects can see through creationisms balogna.
Interesting. Yeah, while I agree with the sentiment, there's no discussion of the architecture.
Sound likes he's guilty of definition of character.
Sounds quite a reasonable assessment of the Creationist crap-o-rama.
Yes. Even if you disagree with them, it's their magazine. They can put whatever they want in it.
Heh...Yes even the Architects are out to get the Christians.





Your persecution complex is showing, cover it up.
No!
Why not? Any place that perverts hard evidence and attempts to exploit a gullible and willfully ignorant public by showing shadows on the cave walls masquerading as truth deserves to be criticized at every point possible.





A tourist trap with a Flintstones theme would have more credibility than this place in actually calling itself a museum.
