The Museum of The Bible is a hopeful example of how organizations can restore trust, reputation and credibility. It is possible.

You should know, however, that however they handle it, mainstream media is going to eat them alive.

Ah, I don’t know, maybe I’m being too pessimistic.

You are being pessimistic. The Bible Museum is an example of a secular-confessional space, and it is being well received. Take a look at this Washington Post article: The Ark Encounter or The Bible Museum.

Look what @Patrick writes about them:

@Patrick

Yes they are very different. Thanks for this article. I learned that the Bible Museum was free. was very glad about that. Also note that the Bible Museum was both receptive to hear and actually made changes based on FFRF research and critique. The Bible Museum is now honestly open to portraying the Bible as openly and honestly as possible.

It is only one year old now too. They had over a million visitors their first year, and are on an upward trajectory.
