Not to beat a dead horse, but I don't believe it's personal. It is an ethics question when a so-called science museum is promoting inaccurate information and using spurious arguments to buttress their case. Their "explanation" about how the fossil record came to be is a perfect example.
 
What would be the response if there was a museum whose brief was that the Holocaust never happened?

I agree with you, Penelope. This is thread is personal, not professional.

 

Let's get back on track and talk about IPM or ADA. I don't want to spend the afternoon pressing the delete key, please.

i will be very glad when this list moves back into professional discussion and drops the 'ain't it awful' put down of other people's beliefs.  so someone has a creationist museum .. so what ?  did they force you to become a member or contribute to the museum ?  before someone comes back with the retort that the thread is a 'professional ethics' issue .. check the sarcastic level of the latest posts.
