Scientific claims can be tested. How can you test all the claims made in the Creation Museum? And what was the outcome of these tests?

Have you ever wondered why Ken Ham en Ray Comfort came from New Zealand to the USA to preach christianity. If they wanted to convert people to christianity the would go to places where the majority of the people are NOT christian, yet they chose the USA where 80% is christian: there are none to convert but so much more to make pay some money.
Answering a question with a coutner question is not very convincing.How do you test the belief that a bacteria will turn into horse given enough time and chance ... scientifically?
QV please:Nah, they followed the money. As driewerf said, the USA is already a prime market to profit from creationists.
From the time AiG was founded, Ham planned to open a museum and training center near its headquarters in Florence, Kentucky, telling an Australian Broadcasting Corporation interviewer in 2007, "Australia's not really the place to build such a facility if you're going to reach the world. Really, America is."
If you want to whine about someone's bank account, whine about Solomon's.Ken Ham makes over $200k per year from Answers in Genesis. Not too shabby.
Have you been there?You mean enough guillible people ready to open their wallet. Exactly what i said.
As I said, some of those dollars came from atheists' wallets as well.Not whining, just pointing out a fact. Creationism has paid quite well for those like Ken Ham.

You wouldn't
because that is a complete strawman
But to answer your question: You don't, because a bacteria doesn't turn into a horse.
Yes, it's amazing how much time we spend arguing with creationists in this forum--not about whether the theory of evolution is valid, but about what it claims, which should really be beyond dispute.Clearly we differ.

Suppose I said, "Christianity is a dumb religion because you have to believe that Jesus was an Olympic figure skater and we're all going to heaven on ice skates, which is really dumb." What would your response be? Probably something like, "That's not what Christians believe; go read the Bible to find out." But creationists don't seem to want to put any effort into finding out what the theory of evolution really claims.
I'm sure you could. I wonder if you could come up with any that we haven't seen before? But why do they have to be quotes from atheist evolutionists?The last time I checked it was still the "Creation vs Evolution" Forum.
I am more than happy to quote what world class atheist evolutionist say about the flaws in evolution.
I think there is a forum here where I can do that.
Only in creationist circles. .
Only in creationist circles. Evolutionists value the statements of other evolutionists based on the science involved, not on whether they are atheists or not.world class atheist evolutionists often are treated as the "gold standard" in some circles.
Speaking as an atheist myself, if I suspect that an evolutionist's views are being influenced by their atheism I shall subject them to much closer scrutiny than would otherwise be the case. (The same would apply if their views were influenced by the their religious beliefs, or - indeed - their fanatical devotion to Rugby League.)Only in creationist circles. Evolutionists value the statements of other evolutionists based on the science involved, not on whether they are atheists or not.
