Creationism Hath No Place at the Museum of Natural History

For this alternative news video, the good people at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City were kind enough to give me a private tour of the Gottesman Hall of Planet Earth, and I was kind enough to repay them by questioning all their scientific knowledge, beliefs, and general credibility. Why? Because there are a lot of Young Earth Creationists out there who believe that radioactive dating methods are nothing more than heaps of bunk, that our planet has only been around as long as people have been, somewhere in the vicinity of 4,000 years. They believe in a literal interpretation of the creation story in the Bible, that God created everything in 7 days and 7 nights, and that the story of Noah’s Ark really happened. Everyone is allowed to believe whatever they want in my book, but my big question is why don’t creationists seem to think the same thing? They seem to be on a war path to make sure everyone believes what they do and refutes any scientific knowledge or discovery that proves otherwise. And this, I cannot tolerate. Especially from a bunch of quacks. Oops! Did I say that? So yes, I took advantage of my private tour of the museum to speak to the incredible exhibits in a way that a creationist would. I could say it was to start a conversation, but I’d be lying. I did it because it was damn good fun. And the people at the Museum were damn good to not toss me out from the moment I opened my critical little mouth. So I hope you enjoy this video, the fruits of my being a total ass to a really smart, sweet geologist doctor lady.
