"What I find disconcerting is the way so many of you seem to demean the
people who differ from your "scientific" views."

 

I agree.  I'm surprised that people who presumably have a background in art,
history or anthropology take this attitude.  If this was a Native American
or Egyptian creation myth would you have the same attitude?  I'm not a
Christian but I'm surprised by the intolerance and disrespect.  Most of us
serve the public and that includes people of all faiths and beliefs.  

 

If I ever have the chance I'll go the museum, not because it reflects my
beliefs but because I'm a student of culture.  EVERY museum, society and
belief system (science included) tells their story with a slant, it's just
easier to see when it's not your own.  At least they're upfront and
unapologetic about their message.
