If you're like me, sometimes it's just irresistable to check out what the nutjobs on the right are up to on a given day. It's entertaining and, to be sure, often a bit infuriating. But you'd rather not give them the satifaction of watching FoxNews or visiting WorldNetDaily. When I heard about the Creation Museum in Kentucky, I was incredibly astounded that somebody would spend so much wealth and effort on such insanity. But I was also curious. Luckily, you and I don't have to fork over the money to satisfy our curiosity.
The Secular Alliance of Indiana University took a day trip to the museum recently and produced this short and entertaining documentary. It features a group of IU students observing the exhibits, questioning them, and sarcastically trying to justify them.
So without further adieu...

UPDATE
First, thanks for the kind words and the rec's. Much appreciated.
Second, some necessary clarification (which I obviously should have included initially). regrets:
I did not produce this video, nor was I a participant in it, nor am I a member of the Secular Alliance of Indiana University. The video was emailed to me through the Center for Inquiry Indianapolis listserv (I am a member of the IUPUI Freethinkers), and I liked it so much, I thought I might share it with the rest of the world.
Please send some love and kudos for the video to my friends at the Secular Alliance of Indiana University.
