Blast from the past
Its always funny seeing your home town turn up in the news. Its even stranger when it turns up in the blog of one of the New Atheists, PZ Meyers.

Whats even stranger, is that I have actually been to this particular Christian bookshop, back when I was young, since I collected coins and they were one of the few places that sold them in the area, along with a bunch of interesting junk. Mom never let me go into the Museum, because I, in my innocence, had no idea that there were bad museums. I only assumed their were big ones and small ones. It was only later in life that I went by there and realized that it was a creationist museum, filled with stuffed animals. I can still remember the odd book mold and fudge smell of the place. Strange that it should survive into the Age of Amazon so well.
