Noah's Ark theme park, by the Creation Museum people

[Silvorange]

I am so proud to be from Kentucky. It was announced today that the people behind the Creation Museum are planning a fun and educational Noah’s Ark theme park.
I can’t deny that I would be tempted to go. I would like to see an ark built according to Biblical specs, and see how all the animals would fit. I would like to see awesome, high-budget versions of all kinds of settings, both mythical and historical. I just don’t like seeing one presented as the other.

I hate when we Kentuckians are stereotyped as ignorant yokels, but we’re not helping.

That actually looks like it could be interesting. As long as it is well-done. I wonder whether they hired anyone from Disney or one of the major special-effects houses to design the attractions? I wonder who they’ll have checking on the accuracy of the middle-eastern village reconstruction?

And it has a 5-D theatre!

Considering how long the animals were on the ark, I assume the fifth dimension is smell.

Maybe this time, on the Ark, they’ll let the food chain work its magic:

they’ll have:
[ul]
[li]bugs, eaten by [/li][li]amphibians, eaten by[/li][li]birds, eaten by[/li][li]reptiles, eaten by[/li][li]monkeys, eaten by[/li][li]creationists, eaten by[/li][li]gorillas[/li][/ul]
and then Kentucky’s reputation might move up a few notches.

I must also note that the organizers are hoping to use tax incentives to build this thing…

Dudes, religious-themed theme parks are as old as the Ozarks. They all seem to fail. I am sorry that is the case, but it is in fact the case.

Just skip the drama and move directly to Chapter Eleven.

All the more reason not to blow tax incentives on them, huh?

I should note however that the Creation Museum is doing a brisk business.

Just as long as the mini gummi Noah’s Ark that they sell in the gift shop has two of every flavor.

The biggest religious theme park is in the middle of Rome, and that’s been there for ages.
