Did you read all three pages? I didn't realize, at first, there was more. Pretty scary, like the part about the iMax theaters in the South. Yikes.

I kind of lost my stomach for it really early on and didn't continue reading. I may try again later when I'm feeling particularly robust, though.

I was mostly "fine" with it until it got to the part where the guy said how superior and different we are from the animals.

I have a hard time understanding why people want humans to be so special. Even those who believe in evolution.

Emily Maynard, 12, was also delighted with Ham's presentation. Home-schooled and voraciously curious, she had recently read an encyclopedia for fun - and caught herself almost believing the entry on evolution. "They were explaining about apes standing up, evolving to man, and I could kind of see that's how it could happen," she said.

Ham convinced her otherwise. As her mother beamed, Emily repeated Ham's mantra: "The Bible is the history book of the universe."
