Didya see what they spent on this thing?

And the tax incentives?

 

[lovetoread]

A totally non religious use of tax payer money.

 

[yossi]

Probably took a lot of cubits.

 

[juttjaw]

I read about this.. As much as I was appalled and outraged, I thought it might be kinda cool to see. Like walking though the Harry Potter thing at Universal Studios.

 

[RoryN]

$100 million
$18 million tax incentives
And...

DINOSAURS!

 

[lovetoread]

Its a well known fact that the dinos were the last ones off the boat

 

[yossi]

That kid totally wants to take that dinosaur home. I can't say as I blame him.

There ain't nothin else to do in ky cept dodge rattlesnakes and chew wads.

Well, now there is. You can go marvel at the "largest freestanding timber structure in the world", built solely to indoctrinate children into believing Barney shared an ark cage with Dumbo.

They don't even do the Dougie in Kentucky.

And don't forget to stop by the souvenir stand and get your t-shirts and Noah bobbleheads.

DINOSAURS!

I'm not surprised considering that 47% of Americans think that dinosaurs coexisted with man.

Also, the front of this thing:

...that's a little 19th / 20th century, is it not?

 

[Saint Peter]

Noah's Hydraulic Noah Lifters were also used on the Tower of Babblers.

Is that really the bow? with the bulb? Noah should have taught shipbuilding, if so!

 

[Killswitch1]

I wonder why they put a bulbous bow on there. They were invented until world war 1.

 

[RoryN]

"Yeah, um, Noah knew how to build it. And then people forgot for awhile...and then they remembered how to build ships like that again."

They might as well have made the thing out of steel.

Those fuckers probably didn't even measure in cubits.

Amateur. I did 44.

They fooled me with Mammoth Cave.
As George W says, fool me once, and, um, you see, you can't fool me again.

 

[pensivepoet]

Yeah
But not in a dry county.

 

[someoneyouknow]

Think of all the people that could have been helped with this money which instead has been (again) wasted on religion.*

*No, I don't really care about people but that argument is continually used against useful things like space exploration or various science projects.

 

[RoryN]

The more I look at it, the more I wonder: does "Noah's Ark" have a sprinkler system? Or fire exits? Or flame retardants on its natural wood surface?

Yes
Noah was very responsible
It pissed God off
I mean, where's the faith in that?
