Dr. Henry Morris' Institute of Creation Research launched the Creation and Earth History Museum in 1992. For 16 years, ICR developed and grew the exhibits with a mission to equip believers with evidence of the Bible's accuracy and authority through scientific research, educational programs, and media presentations, all conducted within a thoroughly biblical framework. Upon ICR's move to Texas in 2008, the entire museum and its contents were sold to Scantibodies Laboratory, Inc.Tom Cantor, the owner of Scantibodies Laboratory, Inc., and his wife Cheryl founded a non-profit 501c3 ministry called the Light and Life Foundation. The Light and Life Foundation owns and operates the museum and continues creation evangelism.The Creation and Earth History Museum remains dedicated to the biblical account of science and history. The facilities include a 10,000 sq. ft. showcase for a literal six-day creation and young earth, including a human anatomy exhibit, life-size tabernacle display, age of the earth cave and more.

The Rhea County Courthouse, located in Dayton, Tennessee was the scene of the Scopes Trial of July 1925, in which teacher John T. Scopesfaced charges for including Charles Darwin's theory of evolution in his public school lesson. The trial became a clash of titans between the lawyersWilliam Jennings Bryan for the prosecution and Clarence Darrow for the defense, and epitomizes the tension between fundamentalism andmodernism in a wide range of aspects of American society.
A $1-million project which restored the second-floor courtroom to the way it looked during the Scopes trial was completed in 1979. The Rhea County Museum, also called the Scopes Trial Museum, is located in its basement and contains such memorabilia as the microphone used to broadcast the trial, trial records, photographs, and an audiovisual history of the trial. Every July local people re-enact key moments of the trial in the courtroom.[3] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhea_County_Courthouse
