its a waste of money but a great engineering feet. it would just reinforce to me that religion is a load of crap. two brontosauruses, two elephants and there food for 40 days and it would be full. where did they get all that timber in the desert? how did the stop termites? what did the lions eat? what about animals that are hermaphrodites? and many many more questions.

The "Ark Encounter" is, BY FAR, one of the dumbest things that evangelicals have promoted as one of their beliefs. P.T. Barnum said that there is a sucker born every minute, and this preposterous "amusement park" is proof positive. They teach dinosaurs living with people and passengers on the boat. Further, their belief in a young earth (6000 years old) is terribly ridiculous and anti-intellectual. The children being "sold" this BS are the real losers. May it go bankrupt and close asap.

The evangelicals are pushing creationism to be taught in place of evolution in the south, their also pushing religion via the school voucher system. This adm. is allowing campaigning from the pulpit which is against the Constitution. Look at the new museum for the bible in D.C. They are against all science even in medicine which could save many lives. Religion and the harm it is doing daily is a crime that we are being forced to support. The church and Rev. are so good that they are given special favors and treated with so much respect in spite of what harm their church is doing.

I'm from Louisville and I'ml happy I left. Full of Christian fundamentalists who also largely voted for 45. Have never looked back...though the rest of the southern states are pretty much the same so it's hard to get away.

trying to prove an obvious fabrication is REALLY expensive

School sponsored trips to that site ARE advancing religion in general and that set of beliefs in particular. Such trips are clearly unconstitutional and should be challenged in court!

Its all about money. Supply and demand. People travel all over the world to see stuff tagged sacred or it happened here. We are the minority here and we have no gimmick. We have those that have free thinking and self control. Not being controlled. We have evolved from nonsense and deception. I feel alive with freedom and knowledge.

I thought that place was on its way to shutting down because they weren't getting enough attendance. I heard that on AXP and TTA and some other places. I haven't looked into it that much because I don't really care but now I'm curious.

I've seen video walkthroughs of this "museum" and, well, I don't know how to reconcile otherwise functional adults devoting time and effort to something this ridiculous. Noah's Ark is one of the worst ideas in Christianity, yet fundamentalists persist in the notions of a worldwide flood and housing every "kind" of animal on a rather small ship. I often wonder about Ken Ham in particular whether he's sincere or that he's taking advantage of fervent religiosity for his own financial gain. I'm honestly torn.
