Not satisfied with being laughed out of every serious museum, being part of a shitshow "documentary", having a laughable museum full of stupidity, being part of a group tha thought up and triumphed the Banana Theory, and getting his rear end stomped by Bill Nye (the science guy!), Ham has been pumping money into a life sized Ark.

http://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/2016/02/20/after-legal-victory-noahs-ark-rises/80601668/

Scheduled to open in july it's expected to cost over 90 million and be surrounded by a theme park. Like a Mr. Toad's Wild Ride version of the Creation Museum
Despite being an eyesore, stupid, and discriminating, it's been awarded an 18 million dollar tax break along with other incentives

http://www.kentucky.com/news/state/article73971147.html


Though it is being built as proof that two of every animal on earth could fit inside and manage to float through storms for forty days isn't as far fetched as people realize, it won't be floated in water and requires a multitude of metal supports and parts (95 tons worth) that would not be possible for the "original" biblical ark and won't house any animals (they'll be outside on display).

Ok so Noah built the ark by himself and they say it took 100 years. So if he has 100 people working on his ark (which I am sure he has more) it should only take a year right? Has he provided any reasoning why they are completely ignoring all the things they are trying to prove, such as it being feasibly made with primitive technology, you know putting animals on the loving thing, having it float? Or does it all just get handwaved as god's plan or some poo poo?

oh yeah, there's a tent where your family can re-enact it. They figured that a good percentage of the people who'd go to this place already gently caress their daughters, so why not roll with it?

I'm pretty sure insurance would be the main thing. No one in their right mind is gonna insure a theme park that packs people and animals on a 500 foot wooden boat that will break apart because of the stresses floating in water.

but of course the gullible that line up for this won't think that far into it, just "praise Jebus, he's doin' the lawd's werk!".
PS, there's gonna be dinosaurs there too

This kind of sounds like that scam amusement park, Wild West World in Kansas, where they opened up a sham religious theme park and scammed all of the local church folk out of their investment.

Naw it was just Noah and his fam working on it. If I recall correctly (and I probably don't) the ark was made of a prehistoric building material called gopher wood which came from gopher trees I suppose. An ark built to the Bible's specifications wouldn't work made of any modern materials but luckily gopher wood was stronger than steel and more buoyant than regular wood but sadly it no longer exists so insert burden of proof jujitsu and you can't disprove nothing.

Also the animals hibernated for over a year therefore not needing an ark-sized amount of food or trying to eat each other. Yes all animals can hibernate and for that long God just made them sleep whatever, boy you godless heathens are terrible at disproving things.

You can make tons of money off the severely mentally devout. They'll dump their money on anything that shines their religion's knob. Look how much they suck on Gibson's dick for the Passion.

It's like those old "prince of Nigeria" scams except the people you advertise to are seven times more gullible. It is Kentucky after all
