dinosaur museums

[incandescens]

At some point in the far, far distant future, alien archaeologists will uncover the perfectly preserved remains (don't ask how, it spoils the image) of this . . .

"You know, Zxhji!bl, that site we found earlier called Disneyworld must have been another of their great temples."

(Of course, Sea-of-Tranquility Jhnes will then show up swinging a whip from one tentacle in order to save them from evil criminal antique thieves, but that's another problem.)

Oh Good Grief.

-.- Does anyone but America have quite such a problem accepting evolution?

[prodigal.livejournal.com]

Not a public one, that's for certain.

[innocent-man.livejournal.com]

Indeed, not everyone in America has trouble accepting evolution.

Come on, every country has its idiots. We just somehow allowed ours to take charge. Believe me, I'm embarrassed, too.

*facepalm* Ngh.

But the image of Sea-of-Tranquility Jhnes is v. amusing. :D

Quick and Dirty...

My. That's not too far away, is it? Maybe I should go seek enlightenment. :P

No one else can combine bad taste, capitalistic greed, and weird cultish behavior quite like U.S. breed of evangelicals. Clever Aussie dude, though. That's close enough to King's Island to benefit very directly from major amusement park traffic, but located in Kentucky, which is nominally Southern state -- with concordantly lenient legal/tax scenario for such an enterprise, I imagine.

Interesting to see there's actually a good business brain behind it.

[mikeneko.livejournal.com]

Mmm. It's a -conversion- business. mind. They're planning for the long term. Nearby amusement park means -lots- of children. Huge animatronic dinosaurs are naught but a child-lure -- and that means all kids, xtian and otherwise.

So. Which is going to make the greater impression on a kiddie brain: fig-leafy Adam and Eve running from life-size T. rex, or a boring high-school biology book years later? A snooze in science class or rolling about in the Dark Ark with screams of the damned dehors? Very practical.

I suspect you're entirely right. Unfortunately.

I believe that mankind was seeded on planet Earth by alien invaders from planet Zort. The aliens pushed little humans out of a low flying planes naked save for biodegradable parachutes and fed them entirely on CLIF bars until the proto-humans figured out how to stick the pointy end of the stick into prospective food. The aliens also built the Egyptian Pyramids, the Mayan Pyramids (at the same time!), drew the Nazca lines, and invented "New Coke" to keep future generations boggled and guessing.

I am raising money for an amusement park to educate the public on my views. Give now, and receive this authentic Tin Foil Hat (tm), guarenteed to keep the government from beaming messages into your head through contrails! Call now, for supplies are limited! I accept VISA and Mastercard!

I would be donating money this very second, were it not for the fact that I'm saving up for my own amusement park to promulgate my own utterly valid and certified viewpoint.

To our friends in foreign lands:

Not ALL Americans are as ass-backwards as this guy would have you think. A very great many of them are, to be sure--witness who got re-elected--but many are regular, normal, intelligent human beings who think for themselves.

I'm starting to think the intelligent ones are in the minority. *shudder*

On behalf of us all, I'd just like to say: I'm really, really sorry...! >_<
