Lawsuits: What Would Jesus Do?
Kentucky.com 06/17/2007 Museum group sued by fellow creationists: "There is trouble in paradise, with a fight of biblical proportions raging between a Kentucky-based creationist group and the Australian group from which it sprang.
Three days after the Memorial Day opening of Answers in Genesis' $27 million Creation Museum in Northern Kentucky, a group called Creation Ministries International filed suit in the Supreme Court of Queensland.
Among other things, the suit claims the Kentucky group stole subscribers for its Answers magazine by claiming that the Australians' Creation magazine was 'no longer available.'
The suit is the most public move in what has been a growing rift between groups that are spreading the same Garden of Eden creation message on opposite sides of the globe.
Both groups believe in a literal interpretation of the Bible, that the earth and everything else was created in six days around 6,000 years ago.
But in the last several years, they have increasingly feuded about finances and power."
Whether it is true or not, the allegation is hilarious! And either way, somebody is lying. Oh, how fun is this?? No matter what happens, one thing is for sure...these creationists will have to spend money on a lawsuit that would otherwise have been used to spread this dopey message. Not to mention the fact that it will bring negative publicity to the brand new "museum". This makes me happy!
