On a slightly related note, in that article about the Creation Museum, I found this paragraph interesting:

"Charles Leckie, a family doctor in Tupelo, Miss., wrapped a family vacation around a visit. On the way, they stopped at Mammoth Cave National Park in Kentucky, where Leckie challenged the guide's assertion that the rock formations are millions of years old. He asks why people should believe 'so-called experts.' After all, 'they're all human.'"

It seems like Dr. Leckie has a good question there, until you realize that he only thinks the Bible is the word of God because some humans told him so.
