Tulsa Zoo To Add Creationism Display

The newest battleground for creationism may be the nation's zoos. The Dallas Morning News reported yesterday that, in response to pressure, the Tulsa, Oklahoma zoo board has voted to put up a creationism display along side its long-standing display on evolutionary science. A local architect who leads creationist tours of the zoo has helped design a prototype of the display-- all the verses from Genesis 1 to 2:3, illustrated with color photographs. But zoo officials are working on a broader display that will add other cultural viewpoints as well.
