From the article:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A man who plays Adam in a video aired at a
Bible-based creationist museum in Kentucky has led a different life
outside the Garden of Eden, flaunting his sexual exploits online and
modelling for a clothing line that promotes free love.
After learning about his activities Thursday, the Creation Museum
pulled the 40-second video in which he appears.
"We are currently investigating the veracity of these serious claims
of his participation in projects that don't align with the biblical
standards and moral code upon which the ministry was founded," Answers
for Genesis spokesman Mark Looy said in a written statement.
The actor, Eric Linden, owns a graphic website called Bedroom Acrobat,
where he has been pictured, smiling alongside a drag queen, in a
T-shirt brandishing the site's sexually suggestive logo. The website,
which has a network of members, allows users to post explicit stories
and photos.
He also sells clothing for SFX International, whose initials appear on
clothing to spell "SEX" from afar. It promotes "free love," "pleasure"
and "thrillz."

I like this part at the end:
"For the Creation Museum, I did what I did as an actor. It doesn't
necessarily mean I believe in evolution or a believe in creation,"
Linden said.
"I'm hired to get a point across. On the flip side, if I was hired to
play a murderer, that doesn't mean I'd go out and kill somebody."
"It's make-believe." |

"Serious claims?" SERIOUS? Why would the cult care?

If this is one of the "two mandatory films" that someone mentioned, it
isn't as bad as some of us feared. And now they must be down to one?
I was going to suggest that the verb "pull" was sloppily and even
suggestively used here, unflattering to AiG, but I can only think of
"withdraw" which is likewise. Maybe it's my being British. We have
30,000 words for smut.
Yes, the British are always talking about sex. But they never seem to do
anything about it.

We must be doing something. After all, we export more people than
almost any other nation on earth. Perhaps the British can only have
sex when they're abroad?
