Taxidermy Hall of Fame
Ok, now this has got to take the cake: the Taxidermy Hall of Fame of North Carolina Creation Museum and Antique Tool Museum which advocates unequivocally a "stand without apology for the Genesis account of creation and against evolution." A little more detail is offered by the North Carolina ECHO's (Exploring Cultural Heritate Online) webpage, "the purpose of the museum is to show the creative handiwork of God through the collection, preservation, and creative exhibition of taxidermy specimens of all kinds from all over the world and a wide array of antique carpentry and construction tools and accessories." Check out the museum's website: http://www.thecreationmuseum.org/ and make sure to see the surprisingly wry slideshow.
On exhibition at the Taxidermy Hall of Fame is every kind of North Carolina wildlife unprotected by the law (they have plastic replicas of protected species), state and national taxidermy ribbon winners, a fur-bearing trout, numerous trophy mounts, and apparently the oldest rock on earth. What taxidermy, creationism, and antique carpentary tools have in common is pretty much up for grabs. But then, why be dull?
The museum is located in the Christian Book Store on Broad Street in historic Southern Pines. The image is taken from Dean Jeffrey's review of the museum: read it +
