|
|
From the article:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The founder and president of Answers in Genesis is busy preparing for
the Creation Museum's opening with meetings, tours and interviews
BY RYAN CLARK
Each morning, there's one thing Ken Ham does before praying.
He checks his e-mail.
After that, he corresponds with God.
Then he moves on to other chores - like making sure his $27 million
Creation Museum is finished in time for its Memorial Day opening, May
28.
"We hope," he says, laughing. "Actually, we're praying it's finished."
Ham is the $120,000-a-year leader of Answers in Genesis, a
controversial creationist group based in Petersburg, Ky., which has
followers across the globe. In short, the ministry believes in a
literal interpretation of the Bible, including that God created the
heavens and earth in the span of six 24-hour days.
But to believe in the literal Bible causes some friction with those
who choose to believe mainstream science.
But so many believe in Answers in Genesis that the museum will open
debt-free. Monetary gifts came from around the world to build the
museum, often in increments less than $100.
Now, Ham's biggest concern is getting the museum open.
On a typical day, it is his focus.

Evidently AiG makes substantial profits for some of its members.
$120,000 a year for lying?
Sounds like a politician.
