I can never make up my mind on whether Ken Ham is seriously deluded, or whether he is a con-man, running a huge scam operation.

Is there any likelihood that something like the 'Creation Museum' could be built in Australia?
I doubt it.
Sure, it could be built with enough private money. But nobody would do that, because they would not have enough customers for it to pay off.
I'm told that Queensland, the part of Australia that Ken Ham comes from, is the Australian Bible Belt. It is also the one part of Australia where there once was slavery. That makes one wonder.

As it was presented to me, the question is are they knaves for fools?
I didn't mean to imply that those two are mutually exclusive.

Given the number of conversion stories that I'm sure we've all heard, obviously some of them genuinely believe. However, that's certainly not to say that none of them are hucksters.
Yes, I concur with that general view. However, there is something very huckster-like in Ken Ham's style.
