Life, the Universe & Everything Else - Episode 197: “Night at the Creation Museum”

Dec 04 2023 52 mins 14

On this episode of Life, the Universe & Everything Else, Gem, Ashlyn, Lauren, Laura, and special guest Dave Bonwick discuss Eric Hovind’s “Night at the Creation Museum”, a short film promoting Young Earth Creationism: the view that the universe and everything in it was created by the Christian God a little over 6000 years ago.

Life, the Universe & Everything Else is a podcast that explores the intersection of science and society.

Correction: Lauren knows “compy” is short for compsognathus and there has never been an unholy cross breed between that dinosaur and the pachycephalosaurus. They just got excited.
