Florence, Ky., April 11 — A fundamentalist ministry is raising money for a museum based on the premise that dinosaurs roamed the earth within the past few thousand years, that all people are descended from Adam and Eve and that the Bible is a literal account of creation.

Answers In Genesis recently won regulatory approval to build a museum and headquarters on 47 acres near Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport. Founder Ken Ham plans a 95,000-square-foot building — as big as two football fields and worth $8 million — to house an alternative to “evolution-dominated” museums.

He envisions a walk-though history of the world according to the Bible from the Garden of Eden to the tower of Babel.
