I can't picture many kids bugging their parents for a return trip to this monument to ignorance. About the only worthwhile thing regarding the Ark, is that it serves as a reminder of what reasonable people are up against in this world.

Riddle me this, AiG...

Why is a man named Lot considered righteous after attempting to give his two unnamed virgin daughters to a mob to be raped in order two protect two male strangers? Furthermore, why is that man still considered righteous after he later impregnates both his daughters?

"Oh, but those daughters got him drunk and he didn't realize what he was doing." Sure. Anyone who gets so stinking intoxicated that he doesn't recognize his own flesh and blood relations is going to be far too inebriated to achieve an erection, let alone an orgasm. Twice. That tale is as tall as that tower you plan on "erecting."

There's really nothing that can be said about Ken Ham's delusion that hasn't been said before. The Ark Park is a waste of money and an insult to human intelligence and understanding of how the world works. It's just taken longer for SOME people to catch up to that fact than with others.

I just wish they'd wake the fuck up!

Well, that's not good news. We need to stop this brainwashing of our children. The dinosaurs lived 65+ million years ago. That CAN be proven. Ken Ham's folly can not!

Christians create a whole-ass genocide themed family amusement park, but we're the ones exposing kids to age-inappropriate content by, um... *𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘤𝘬𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘴* existing. Ok, groomers.

Grifters using the same grift on multiple marks? In other news, the Pope is still Catholic.

I was disgusted to notice that a few weeks ago CBS Sunday Morning began running advertisements for the Ark park. Really disappointing because the show is otherwise very factual and rational.

Soooo, according to the flood story god killed all humans except the eight people on the ark. Given that the current human population on earth is 8 billion there is not enough binary pairs of parents to account for the current number of people. Meaning that pedigree collapse has occurred. Ham needs to add another biographical detail the Noahs: They were all mother f-ers.

It should be allowed to wilt, like the stark landscapes of Chernobyl, and then preserved as a paintball battle zone!

If Ham is having such financial difficulties, why doesn't he and one or two others pray to their god for help in Jesus' name? According to his savior, YHVH is supposed to come through in that situation.

I could be wrong but wasn’t Egypt thriving when the earth was ‘flooded’?

I had no idea what this was and had to Google it.

Yeah, it's probably going to take a few years yet for this thing to die like we all hope it will. Right now, it's still all shiny and new, but give it some time to start looking tired, dirty, and dated. I think the numbers we're seeing now would pretty much be the same with or without COVID, and we can expect a slow decline from this point on. Upkeep on the place is only going to get more and more expensive as time moves on.

Right now, Ham's still making too much money, but when the cash cow dries up, that might change. Waiting for it to happen is the hard part.
