On our list for next summer’s family vacation…NOT!
Haven’t they already built one of those things? Hope they build it big enough to fit all the extinct dinosaurs, saber-toothed tigers and woolly mammoths that once roamed the earth. They were there when Noah sailed that thing, amiright?
Good Lord. I’ve had enough of these idiots.
Is Answers in Genesis ever going to apologize to kids for making it more difficult for them to get jobs?
The dinosaurs went extinct because they got a good deal on a Carnival Cruise and said, “No thanks!” to Noah!
Noah’s Ark: bout’ 45’ high / 450’ long / 75’ wide / made of wood / conservatively held 50,000+ animals / 2,000,000+ insects / 7 people / a 600 year old man / provisions for about a year!
Yup! Makes perfect sense! Can’t wait to see it. Meh!
Ken Ham needs $90 million dollars, modern machinery, a huge team of labor / roads / lumber mills…and huge tax breaks. And…it never once occurred to him to question that a 600 year old man with Bronze Age tools could pull off the same?
Faith? …Naaaah’…Stupidity and lack of all reason (aka: faith).
I’ll never forget the end of the debate between Bill Nye and Ken Ham on ‘Natural Selection’ vs ‘Intelligent Design’ where Nye dismantled but did not dissuade ‘believer’ Ham. Closing was epic…
Moderator: Mr. Ham what would cause you to question your position in this debate?
Ham: "Nothing!"
Moderator: “Mr. Nye, same question.”
Nye: "Evidence."
And there it is!
The way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason.____Benjamin Franklin
Well, you have to hand it to the “Genesis” group… they’re about the only Christian group admitting to the reality of global warming with their actions. I do think they’ll need a bigger arc.
Awww. What a surprise. All those same travelers just landed on dry land in my garden this last summer, so if anyone’s still looking for Noah’s Lost Ark…come to Michigan. I think its still sitting in my garden collecting weeds on a pile of mulch. No need to build a new one. But, I’m pretty sure there was a woodchuck or two in the bottom hull of the ship that might have something to say about the horrid accommodations. (Not pictured).
I suppose the irony is lost on the true believes that contemporarily this has to be done with heavy equipment and scores of men.
Maybe, like the pyramids, aliens helped Noah and his sons?
Somehow, I don’t think 800,000 beetles are going to bring in the paying customers (a few entomologists, maybe.)
Are you kidding? Since the non-anthropomorphic global warming has made most of the North Pole ice cap seasonal, ol’ Kris moved everything to the South Pole not far from the Sovie, er, I mean Russian research station. He figures even if the Ruskies say anything about it, no one will believe them anyway.
As I recall, the animals just sort of lined up and stepped onto the ark. See, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6omFJhKr6o
I actually don’t have a problem with the state tourism tax credits. This thing will be a huge boon to the local economy since anyone willing to travel to it will pretty much buy any damn thing you throw in front of them.
I’m still wondering how Noah came up with $90 million. I mean, he was working for free, so that knocked a little off the cost, but still…
I’ve been breathlessly waiting.
What will be really interesting will be to see how many visitors stare at it trying to calculate how two of every species ever got onboard. It’s one thing to hear a fairy tale and imagine it in your head – especially when you have no idea what the hell a cubit is. It’s quite another thing to see a life-size reproduction of Noah’s Ark and realize that the story must be bullshit.
Won’t that be the ultimate irony, when Answers in Genesis ends up sowing seeds of doubt?
I hope this isn’t tax exempt.
You have to remember that Noah probably had access to giants and dinosaurs to help build the original, and they worked cheap.
What kind of a bastard do you think god is? Sure, he was willing to wipe out every man, woman, child, fetus, embryo, blastocyst, and zygote on the planet outside of one family, but he wasn’t about to enslave that family by giving them handouts.
