Why do you care if they build a creation museum?

I for one don't give a rat's arse. Let them fleece the rubes...erm...I mean take donations from their congregations and build their Mammon-Loving Monument to Moronity.
Don't do it with government money, don't deliberately encourage schools to tour there, in fact prevent school science classes from having tours there (religious studies class/history class/philosophy class etc = different matter), don't make it a tax exempt institution and in no other way fund or support it from the public purse, then fine! It neither picks my purse nor breaks my leg as someone fairly famous to you Yanks once said.
I've got no problem with what these folks believe or what they do with their money, go to it with my blessing sayeth I.
But if they want their demonstrably false, demonstrably anti-science claims taught AS SCIENCE in SCIENCE CLASS then I will oppose them. If they want the government to support their religious claims with tax breaks and money then I will oppose them. Clear?
