Scientists Oppose Creation "Museum"
Scientists from colleges and universities in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana are banding together to sign a statement expressing concern about scientifically inaccurate materials at the Answers in Genesis "museum." Students who accept as scientifically accurate the material presented at this "museum" will need remedial instruction if they are to succeed in college-level science courses.
The statement reads:
We, the undersigned scientists at universities and colleges in Kentucky, Ohio, and Indiana, are concerned about scientifically inaccurate materials at the Answers in Genesis museum. Students who accept this material as scientifically valid are unlikely to succeed in science courses at the college level. These students will need remedial instruction in the nature of science, as well as in the specific areas of science misrepresented by Answers in Genesis.
